How does the community feel about Azir?

Azir is right now the at the bottom of the win rates (11) according to this website.

He deals the least damage with his Q.

His shield is used if you hit a champion.

His soldiers can only deal so much. The first deals all the damage, the other 1 (or 2) deal 15% of the damage (or 30% or so) of the first.

As a META community, I bet everyone remembers when he was OP and not fun to play as or against. But now, he's weak and still not fun to play as or against.

Azir's passive is niche. Its got plenty of drawbacks. 1) Its long CD 2) It must be placed where a turret was 3) It lasts up to 10 seconds or less. Its primarily the reason his R is only a damage/block/MS boost that deals small damage compared to others.

Can someone honestly come on here, and say they just got beat by a Azir today?

I don't get why people are so angry at a champ that was hard to learn in the first place. You learn him, play him, start having fun, and then nerf his Q and E damage. Still trying, having fun with what we have, nerf his Q and E again, only this time, his W and passive get nerfed too. Not having fun, losing a lot, not much in his kit anymore...

What did he have at first?

[P] It was overloaded, now its not. Use to have the one now, but also a CD > AS boost.

[Q] Deals damage, slows targets. (must have soldier)

[W] Also overloaded. Summons soldier, soldier deals damage, multiple summons, multiple damage. Passively gives damage to turret through AP.

[E] Dash, damage, shield.

[R] Knock-Back, damage, blockade, MS boost.

What do you think of Azir? Compared then to now, is he still OP? If he is broken, how would you fix it? (Deleting isn't an option as we have our own... ... champions we wish were gone.)
