Let's be honest here
Azir is, in every sense of the word, a bullshit champion.
High DPS, Huge range with sand soldiers, incredible mobility with his dash, incredibly frustrating slows with soldiers that prevent you from ever getting to him, and incredible survivability with ult in case he gets caught out.
That kit is loaded as hell. Considering his range and Damage, it's insane that Riot gave him such a huge dash. Why even go xerath anymore? You can go azir and do everything better with the add on of a huge dash.
Azir is massively unfun to play against especially if you're any champion that has a lower range than him (every melee champion and many other ranged champions who still have nowhere near the same range as sand soldiers). His kit is overloaded and the nerf to his ult made no sense (honestly, the ult was fine since its inception). If anything they need to either REMOVE his dash and rework something else into him that doesn't give him insane mobility steroids or REMOVE the slow on his soldiers so that there is some hope of counterplay if you're playing something that doesn't have 1000 range.
And azir is supposed to be a "late game" champion, and yet, his early game is very strong. At the VERY WORST for azir he can simply farm hilariously safe with his range and dash away if he gets ganked.
Sorry for the rant, but god is that champion overloaded to hell in terms of kit tools.
EDIT
EULCS azir gets caught out and trades in a 1 v 4 somehow.
