Nerfing Azir, a champion that already struggles in lane early against assassins

Nerfing Azirs Q is the equivalent of nearly gutting Azir my main, as assasins can already get on top of him and removing his lane presence will not help him at all.

Azir doesn't lose any lanes and out scales 90% of the roster

Pro play isn't ladder play.

nothing I said changes. losing lane as Azir at any level is the player's fault.

Azir is literally garbage same goes to corki, they literally lose lanes to Assassins that nobody plays in LCS. Very few Talon games too.

They only reason they rose up on priority is just that Riot nerfs everything.

Wise words from someone who doesnt even play mid, nor Azir

They need to revert his changes back to when he got a bubble for knocking people up with his shuffle, it provided him with sustain against certain situations and the ability to engage without being in a terrible situation. I also would like to see that same bubble be very small for 1 person hit and larger for multiple. Or possible move the bubble to his ultimate, for X amount of people hit, reset your shuffle and gain a absorb shield.

I've always felt that Azir should be an AD mage. He fits the bill perfectly since his soldiers are attacking with spears. I think it would be great if they converted him this way. That would open up much more item paths for him. Plus it would make him even more unique in the game.

Azir's getting nerfed because him and Corki are making the pro play mid lane meta extremely stale.
