Azir....a rather contreversal champ due to his low win rate and high, HIGH I CAN NOT STRESS THIS ENOUGH! HIGH SKILLCAP. so I own azir and if there is anything I learned as somebody who played azir in wood division(I don't like placements cause I keep getting toxic gold players then they refuse to help gank or in lane and all that...) He doesn't have much usage as like, ANY good or semi good mid laner either counters him or effortlessly one shots him by being in his general area. Fizz Zed Katarina Akali are some frequently played mid laners. all of which just jump over his ult cause there are so many blinks/invincibility moves Annie Syndra Orianna Ekko Brand Cassiopeia Kassadin Lux all of which 1 shot him if A:he is hit by a skillshot. just 1. B:is hit by something point/click or C:they have at least one delete button/combo and easy protection/escapes. ult not included sometimes as for most of them the ult is just a "do this combo for free" button Cassiopeia Kassadin The only use I have seen for azir so far is he counters Yasuo. or at least is ok against him though in terms of fixing him he seems beyond repair. his kit is made for skilled reflexes so unless they give his W the range of his E your not going too far on simplicity. and a high skillcap kinda makes balancing for pro play AND wood then all the other ranks kinda hard. and don't get me started on the weird ult preview. you have no idea how many times I missed my ult when a large area of the animation doesn't have a hitbox

As a Mastery 6 Azir my thoughts can be summed up in one word.

SHURIMA.

As someone with a TON of games on Azir I can say that his ult duration needs to be buffed and his Q damage should be lowered so it's only used to reposition soldiers and not burst down squishies. It's not that he has such a high skillcap, it's his skill floor that makes him such a hard champion. Once you get used to his style and limits then everything else is just braindead easy. The champions you listed are all fairly easy matchups, he tends to do great against all assassins except talon and ekko. It's just how weird of a champion he is.

Also the reason why his winrate is so low is because people keep buying some item 3115 item 3006 item 3116 core ffs
