Azir, one of the most unique characters of the mid lane, can really be a one-man army in the hands of a player who can play well. Although Azir is a character based on his ability power, it is not quite right to call him a mage. After all, this friend of ours, who is the king of the Shurima empire, deserves a special place at least throughout the story
Azir, who is a special character thanks to his abilities, is a character that can shape team wars thanks to the return of his ultimate ability. Although it is more difficult to play than many characters, Azir is a very enjoyable character after learning how to play, and he can be just as strong in team battles. We decided to examine the CT’s (Counter), abilities, strong and weak features of this character who rules the sands
Azir CT’s: Counters that are strong against Azir:
- Veigar
- Jayce
- Xerath
- Akshan
- Katarina
Azir, within range can have problems with opposing characters. Or it can get very difficult in situations where it cannot be positioned comfortably (like Veigar’s stun ability). Although the ultimate ability is a nice skill that can be used defensively, unfortunately, it doesn’t work very well unless it hits or stops opponents. Like Xerath having very high range or Katarina being able to jump over her ultimate. While the strengths against the character are specific, the “CT” mechanic more or less works this way throughout League of Legends. If you have a goal of gaining rank, it is quite natural to resort to ways that can hinder your opponent’s character.
All abilities of Shurima’s emperor Azir:
- Passive / Shurima’s Legacy: Azir is from the remnants of destroyed allied or enemy towers Can create a Sun Course.
- Q / Conqueror of Sands: Azir orders all sand soldiers to go to a certain location. While running, Sand Soldiers deal magic damage to all targets they pass through and apply a slow for 1 second.
- W / Forward!: Azir summons a Sand Soldier that attacks nearby targets instead. These substitutions for Azir’s basic attacks can be made to targets within range of the Sand Soldier and deal magic damage to enemies in a line. Further! also passively grants Azir and Sand Soldiers attack speed.
- E / Floating Sands: Azir is briefly shielded and dashes towards one of his Sand Soldiers, dealing damage to enemies. If it collides with an enemy champion, it instantly equips a new Sand Soldier and ceases its movement.
- R / Imperial Guard: Azir summons soldiers in a row that dashes forward and knocks enemies back, dealing damage to them.
Sands Lord Azir’s strengths and weaknesses:
Azir’s strengths:
- Ulti ability to shape team fights
- Ability to damage many characters without leaving his safe zone
- Ability to push his lane fast due to his strong minion clearing ability
Azir’s strongest We can say the soldiers he attacks with his weapon range and his ultimate ability. Thanks to his soldiers, he can damage opponents without leaving his safe zone. His ultimate, on the other hand, has the potential to shape team fights when used correctly, as well as being used defensively. In addition to these features, the same soldiers are also very skilled at pushing the corridor fast. Although such features make Azir very strong, the specific details we mentioned can put the character in a very adverse situation.
Azir’s weak stats:
- Weak against characters that can play outside of his range
- Weak against crowd control like most mages
- Early His damage is not very high and he has mana problems
Azir is a very strong character in range. Especially its safe zone proves this. However, characters who can play outside of their range can be advantageous against Azir, as they can remove Azir from his safe zone. Besides, like many mid laners, Azir is not very resistant to crowd control. Any stun etc. debuffs can come to an end. It’s true that he pushes his lane fast, but in the early stages of the game, his damage can be low in battles and the mana cost of his abilities is just a piece of cake. Although he seems like a very strong character from the outside, like every character, Azir has his own weaknesses.
How to play Azir in LoL?
- It’s always important to keep your range. Let your soldiers fight in the future, not you
- Remember that you can use your ultimate ability for both offensive and defensive purposes
- Be careful not to use abilities too often in the early stages
Your range is your biggest weapon. Do not advance to fight yourself, as you can already have your soldiers fight at long distances. You can use your ultimate both offensively and defensively. While attacking your opponents, you can create a position with your ult. Likewise, when you are raided or in a difficult situation, you can use your ultimate to defend yourself. One of our recommendations is not to use abilities too often in the early stages. Since self-inflicted damage by soldiers is generally sufficient to lane pushing, constantly spending extra abilities will make you push your lane faster, but will cause you to lose mana very quickly.
How to play against Azir, how to beat Azir?
- Even if Azir’s soldiers do basic attacks, be careful not to eat too much haras as it has a lot of damage
- as Azir can’t keep his soldiers in motion all the time. you can create vulnerability according to the position of the soldiers
- Azir has the potential to deal damage for a long time. But instant damage isn’t one of Azir’s strengths. So try to end the battle before Azir reverses the war
Even if Azir’s soldiers are basic attacking, don’t be confused by this. The damage of the basic attack belongs to his soldiers, not Azir. That’s why you should not think of soldiers as fire and stay close to them. Since Azir cannot keep his soldiers constantly in motion, you can position your battle according to the positions of the soldiers. Azir has the potential to deal damage for a long time. But it cannot be said that he is very strong in instant damage. That’s why it’s a good idea to finish the war before you turn the war in your favor.
