Azir Rework with Questions and Thoughts @Meddler

Meddler you announced Azir rework. What should we expect from it?

Ok so I am posting this because I am a little concerned about the upcoming rework of Azir. I have seen several things from riot about them speaking on Azir's rework. They have said they want to make him better and buff him but not too strong. They also said they wanted to keep him how players like him now but not leave him exactly the same. This all sounded great until I heard them say that he "does too many different things and we want to allocate his power elsewhere." I don't like the sound of that. They also mentioned him having such a high skill cap many times saying that Azir is deadly in high elo player's hands and hopeless in low elo player's hands. I don't want them to get rid of his insanely high skill cap. That is 100% of the reason why I play him. I love that he has a high skill cap and takes a lot of practice to play. If they take that away he'll never be the same so I hope they don't do that. They said it themselves, they are walking a very fine line to make sure they don't ruin him but can still successfully rework him. I'm very happy that they decided not to change his appearance because i love it the way it is now. I'n also worried about them removing things from his kit. I want the rework to be them buffing him and adding things not removing what was already there and good about him. The Lead Gameplay Designer Meddler also mentioned that he would want to see Azir's mobility go away and put that power elsewhere. I definitely don't want him being able to Shurima Shuffle and his mobility to go away. I understand that they want to change him but good lord I am terrified for this update now. I want this to be exciting and happy about giving him more cool aspects not taking away the good ones. I trust you riot but please don't let me or any other Azir lover down. I'm just looking for some more solid confirmation that Azir won't be ruined and things will only be added and not taken away. The last time he was updated his soldiers got nerfed massively for turret push. That is an ok example of taking something away. Something that is a bit too strong but not essential to his kit and what makes azir azir. I hope you understand what I'm saying. Thanks and hopefully I get some good information about this upcoming rework to settle my anxiety. Azir

Keep the mobility, and move his q damage to his w. His soliders should be where the damage is not the move that positions them.

I think they could do that but not remove the damage from his q. Just give his w damage too and have that be the heavy damage. Right now if they took away q damage and put it only on the w damage that would be terrible. It would make it nearly impossible to proc thunderlords. Azir also is good at poking and there would be no poke if his soldiers were his only damage. I agree change needs to be made but definitely not that one.
