I dont understand why even bother giving Azir a shield. I love him and his playstyle but 80-240 dmg shield ?
Azir has to throw himself at an enemy to get this puny shield that blocks 1 auto attack basically. That makes no sense to me, why would I even bother using it, shield is weak.
I would love to hear opinions from people who play him way more than I do.

Lauchmelder2 votesIIRC that got removed because it didn't work properly for ages and Riot was too lazy to fix it.
Confused though, didn't find that in his patch history, but I'm certain that I read about this a few months ago.
Kloqdq4 votesThe shield used to be with the knock-up on E. Which allowed for this hyper aggressive play style. Then they nerfed Azir and now the shield is just leftovers. Basically, it's there because Riot guttered everything else and just went, 'Don't worry guys, you still got a shield'.

Akali is SO HOT1 votesThat's most likely one of the first things they are going to remove in his update. It's very out of place in his kit.
AwesomeGuyDj1 votesHis passive is out of place imo. I guess since he's a control mage is why he has it?
UnboundHades1 votesit helps when u get someone on top of you pre 6 and u cant escape with e
SEKAI1 votesMaybe that 1 blocked AA is the difference between life and death.
Lauchmelder1 votesCan confirm. 1v1ed the Ekko yesterday, survived thanks to the (still shyte) shield giving my team the extra second to last hit him and save me.
Rockm Sockm1 votesIt use to be a knock up.
Then it became a shield.
Then it became a shite shield.
