Azir's kit is jarring and EXTREMELY unfun to play against.

You know that feeling when you want to go for that cs in the back, or you want to do a little pokey poke to the enemy in lane but you can't because they have total lane control and if you tried to do literally anything kind of fun, you would get punished into oblivion?

That's playing against Azir.

They say Zed and Yasuo are cancerous, phssst. It's nothing compared to the oppression Azir brings into lane. Azir's kit is just so unhealthy, something needs to be done.

So he stays trash for like a year, then he finally becomes useful and you can't take it? Fuck outta here

it's not about how strong he is, his kit is extremely oppressive and the best way to beat him is to literally do nothing for an entire laning phase.

And Heimerdinger is the exact same thing but you're not complaining???

DoodlzzzFeb 17, 20181 votes

well, heimerdinger's kit is pretty annoying too, I just wasn't thinking of him

Yes, but they both take skill to play. A LOT of skill, actually. In fact, Azir is probably the hardest champion in the entire game. So if you get destroyed by one, don't just randomly call him OP. Consider yourself outplayed.

I'm not saying Azir is OP, actually, I wrote this post after destroying one in lane.

I'm saying his kit forces you to play a super-defensive play style which is no fun at all.

azir is toxic, there is a reason he was nerfed into oblivion. similar to ryze and old poppy.

he needs to be changed because the skill floor to play him is stupidly high and then when played effectively he is just straight oppressive to the point of anti fun.

Toxic? How is he toxic?

azir is suppose to be a zone control mage similar to Illaoi in mage form.

how ever, she doesnt get ways to outplay her weaknessed

azir when played correctly has multiple tools to deal with his weaknesses

you mentioned how heiemr worked similar to azir as you cannot Cs against him or go in on him carelessly?

in himers case the right jungler can easily lock him down or burst him before dying or escaping. because heimers only defensive tool is a delayed stun.

also if you survive to get items against heimer nearly every single meta mid laner has a way fo dealing with him

wave clear mages out push him

assassins will kill him / force summoners

poke mages will out trade him ( assuming they are in turret range )

none of this applies to an azir who is playing correctly

the shurima shuffle will let him avoid assassins

his ult can stop nearly anyone as well

and if you misplay his is VERY punishing if you dont have the mobility to quickly escape.

zone control mages should not have this amount of power put into their escape options. they should be punished/rewarded for positioning.

azir gets all of the benfites of being a zone control bully without a majority of the draw backs and the ones left are simply boring

" just out shove him and run his mana dry "

this is why pantheon is hated on when ever he is retentive ( but pantheon doesn't scale into a war machine of a champion )
