@BalanceTeam Are you seriously nerfing Azir, AGAIN?

You nerfed him once, and people were actually asking for compensation buffs. You held off on judgment for a while, then hurt him again by completely removing his knock-up and making his attack speed scaling take a very long time. Now you are making him slower and making his sole means of poke weaker. It feels like you won't be satisfied until his win rate dips below 40%. You think up some very creative and impressive ways to nerf champions sometimes, like the way you made AD fizz less viable without hurting him, but you put some very ugly and stupid nerfs on other champions. You don't want him to be able to deal with assassin with a knock-up. You don't want him to have sustained damage till later in the game. Now you don't want him to have much burst, either.

I spent literally hundreds of games getting good on this champion. You've gutted both my mains (the other being LeBlanc) in very poor, unconstructive ways, 'till they're mediocre when played extremely well, and shit like this makes me feel like quitting.

I'm extremely disappointed. Please explain the rationale behind this. And let me and the community know if this is it, or if you're not stopping until he's as useless as Leblanc.

The problem is that good players are still extremely good with Azir. My suggesting is to stop playing the FoTM OP champs that will inevitably get nerfed lol.

well. I hope Leblanc stays useless but Azir's taking some unnecessary hits imo. they should be targeting his early game, not his late

Azir couldn't be further away from flavor of the month, that's why I picked him up. His difficulty to learn makes a lot of people shy away from him. A quality I valued extremely highly when picking my next main was a very low pick/ban rate so I could get him often.
