Azir is too weak right now, no CC to lane against other mages.

1. He's already getting a rework.
2. If he gets any buff, he's going to be broken and pick/ban because his kit is hard to balance in it's current state.
3. What he doesn't have in cc he has with huge catch potential, almost no mana used to clear a wave while others use half their mana pool to do so, and long range poke.
4. I pick him ;_;

He's intentionally kept weak because his kit is inherently broken. He has no clear weaknesses and does and has a little of everything.

He is already confirmed to be getting an ability rework which should iron out his brokenness and his weakness by extent. You give him a buff and the mid lane becomes League of Azir.

When I pick him I always get focused and die a bunch of times because he's weak early and mid/junglers are greedy x) also champs with mobility can easily escape the pokes. Basicaly 1 damaging ability the rest is AA.

Meddler has commented on my previous post and he has said that riot is not looking to buff azir until one or more of his abilities get reworked
