Why is Azir secondary marksman?

That's like listing Heimerdinger as marksman, or Anivia or Annie. Even Orianna would make more sense. But why Azir as marksman? Just cause he does well with attack speed? He has no AD on him (and shouldn't be building any)

Are marksmen categorized as people that build AD or people that right click or build AS? If the second one was true, Ezreal wouldn't be a marksman, since he uses a lot of spells, sometimes more than autos

He auto attacks, a lot. From range.

From http://na.leagueoflegends.com/en/champion-reveal/azir-emperor-of-the-sands "With the baddies split, Azir charges his soldiers in for the kill, pumping out marksman-level sustained damage until none challenge his rule. "

Judging from this, i guess its his ability to deal sustained damage. I've only played him once but he certainly felt bursty to me.

Range+ High attack speed
