Azir needs to be toned down
Azir has way too much power at all points in the game and needs to be toned down a bit. These are a few reasons why I believe he is a bit too strong right now:
-
People say he has a weak laning phase but anyone who has played against an Azir knows it is very difficult to not get poked down when trying to CS. At level 3 his Q+E combo can also allow him to have a pretty good escape making him much more mobile than some other midlaners.
-
His ability to siege is great due to his ability to create towers and his W damage on enemy towers. He can also zone enemies using his soldiers rather than damaging the tower.
-
His ult is game changing and does not take that much skill to use. Am I saying that anyone can make insec look bronze with some flashy ult plays? No, of course not, but using his ult as a disruptive tool to peel or disrupt enemy engages is not a very difficult task.
-
His late game DPS is very very high. A champion with a good early game should not be able to scale into the late game as hard as Azir does.
Yes I do think Azir is a difficult champion to master and play very well and this post is not stemming from getting crushed by an Azir lately I just believe that his power at higher levels of play is a little too much.
Let me know what you think.
ect are regarded as having healthy mobility and mana is a problem with him, yes other midlaners have a problem with mana too but a weakness is a weakness non the less, having a higher base health at lvl 18 doesn't mean much given the fact he is a hypercarry so of course his stats are going to be above average at lvl 18. There is ample counterplay to his kit, it relies heavily on picking the right opportunity and baiting him into mistakes, or abusing how easily gankable he is.
