Your all playing Azir incorrectly.

Azir belongs in the top lane.

Why?

Because

Pro's

-Can poke and farm from a huge distance. -Can deny farm from and stacks from people like nasus. -Very hard to be poked -Even out ranges the annoying Gnars boomerangs -Most Top champs that scale with Armor and are better with it will be forced to build MR. (Malphite, Rammus) -Only counter I've found is Jaycee if you can't hide behind minions.

Con's

-Don't overextend since the top laner will be begging for ganks. -If you do overextend, become competent with the W + Q + E combo. -Ward

In mid you can be poked down extremely badly by champions that can rival you (ironically Xerath ) and others such as Ziggs . Not to mention you can be ganked harder.

Anyway, just my 2 cents. Try it out, enjoy and remember

Shurima ;) Azir

P.S. This is better if you have a tank jg. (Malphite, rammus)

oh ive done azir top, its where i learned to play him. Rengar is an annoying matchup but hes mostly in the jungle so its not a huge issue

What about opposing mage matchups that go top as well? Lissandra, Le Blanc, and such? Just curious what ones cause issue?

Ok i dont think its very nice to be telling everyone person that there playing azir wrong. If they can take azir mid and do well on it then theres no reason why they shouldnt keep doing it if they like it and it works. Telling everyone there playing wrong simply cause they dont take him to top lane seems kinda mean. If they feed on him then maybe there doing something wrong however it dont mean its cause they went to mid lane. Merely means there having a bad game and got outplayed.

He belongs in the Top and Mid lane as an interchangeable pick and only in specific team compositions which allow for a Mage Top Lane.

he has a lot of bad matchups top. irelia in particular. he's a good top laner but its a risky pick, you should save it as a counterpick or you're going to get owned. he's much safer mid.
