Azir Counters :: Counter Picking Stats for Azir by CounterStats

Daers says “Try to keep up your farm and avoid his soldiers. You can afford to trade with him earlier but not as possible once he gets attack speed. Only all-in on jungle ganks.”

[Season 11] Diana Mid Runes/Builds/Matchups/Guide [UPDATING] by Daers | Diana Player

Avucado says “Always take Dorans and resolve in this matchup because his poke is almost as bad as Xerath. You can use W to make the soldiers stop attacking you, which will make him either have to play close or just not be able to kill you. Save W for after an E engage as he will most likely try to trade back as you are running away. Hook him to bait his E, then go in with your E if possible, or just E through him to force him to go sideways to escape (Azir will hit you with his dash if you're in the way of his sentries). Very easy to execute and great trades if you start them. ”

Halfhand says “This matchup can be surprisingly hard if the azir player is good. Try to not get poked too hard by his sand soldiers early. You will be alot more useful than him when you can ult to sidelanes. ”

Aethlo says “Azir has the wave clear advantage. || Azir wins pre-3 || Azir wins pre-6 || Azir loses slightly post-6 || Azir scales much better than Annie. || TIP: Azir just outclasses you - so what makes this a rating of 4/5 not 5/5? Well it's simple - he may win the fights but he runs out of mana very quickly. All you have to do is thin the wave every time he shoves you in to reset and quickly bounce it back - reach level 6 and from there you one shot him. The issue is when he kills your entire team with his insane DPS (like an ADC). So make sure to deal with him for the rest of the game (poke him early because he runs out of mana quicker than you and then one-shot him from 6 onwards to the best of your ability. ”

[11.5] ULTIMATE Annie Build / Guide (IN PROGRESS) by Aethlo | Annie Player

iZianni says “Range is nearly identical, Azir has more mobility making it easier for him to punish misplays. If you ever burn flash, there's a high possibility of being Shurima'd into death multiple times. Otherwise, your priority is playing to max range and avoiding trading outside of your E windows until you have a kill opportunity. ”

Challenger Lux Guide by iZianni | Diamond Lux Player

Yeager says “Use fleet foot + resolve/domination secondary + Doran's shield. Play defensive first few levels and just let him push the wave. After you get tier 2 boots you can start looking for kills. What makes this match up easy is the fact that azir is very vulnerable to champions who can easily get past his soldiers and straight into him. His ultimate is also useless against yours because you are unstoppable, so his only reliable form of anti-engage post level 6 is gone. When looking for all-ins, try to bait out his E dash first. If he tries to trade with you, he will end up going OOM really fast because Azir is pretty mana hungry.”

Yeager's Master Yone Guide [In-Depth] by Yeager | Diamond Yone Player

Vicksay says “Bird man is not a very strong champion til he has some items, and he also needs to be piloted /extremely/ well to even be slightly useful. You can easily push him in early game and his mana costs are atrocious for early game poking. Once you get 6 if you know where the jungler is you can freely R in his face to try to land an E. If he doesn't take Cleanse enjoy the free gold.”

Drewmatth Taliyah says “Corrupting + maybe a Doran if you struggle. This matchup can be annoying but you are not necessarily going to feed, perhaps you might lose some CS but in general you shouldn't be completely destroyed. Azir wins the trades mostly after level 3 because of his annoying Q spam and soldiers auto attacks, so if you feel opressed just try to push and roam bot. In this matchup post 6 you have to be extremely careful for the insec dash ult combo that will certainly kill you if you don't have flash so absolutely do not fight him unless you have it up (or you know he has R CD). Heal could work good as a summoner spell in this matchup. Always stay away from CS as he will mostly put soldiers there to farm, so dodge his soldiers by not staying near your own CS. Soldier auto attacks will also trigger minions as far as I know so you can abuse that. Push Early. Must have: Minion Dematerializer. Ganks shut him down heavily.”

XayLies says “You can't really block any of his abilites. But he is weak early game. If you can CC him with Q while he's dashing with his E, you can lock his mobility for a long time and Kill him due to his low deffense and hp. (This dude rushes Nashor + Luden's, not HP+AP Items)”

iZianni says “Annoying match up since he slightly outranges us making our Q/E combination more difficult, if you fail to land your stun it leaves you extremely vulnerable to poke damage. Azir should always go merc treads here and just out poke you early, losing flash in this match up means being shurima shuffled and removed from the game :( If you're able to play the early levels decently, you'll have a good chance at one shotting him if he doesn't pick up merc treads, it's just a range difference typically in this match up. Track sand soldiers to know when his dash is available and maintain a healthy distance for the shuffle.”

LunarVortex says “He outranges and outdamages you at any point in the game. He also has ways to dodge your Q and get out of your R. You also cannot really stop him from scaling through the roof.

D uring an all in be mindful of his ability to R you into danger (tower, enemys etc) so always E infront of him and walk back.

Azir also scales a lot and takes a lot of damage after buying Nashor's Tooth, so he can't be feed. From lvl 6 we can kill him, but carefully with his R. Many Azir are afraid of Kassadin, because they consider you their counter-pick, but in fact, you should also be afraid of him on the lane. However, in the late game you can easily kill him.”

Sylvan Lore says “I find this match-up quite even, but i would favor it slightly towards the Azir. In lane the idea is really to make trades as short as possible. After level 2 he has strong consistent damage that he can move to wherever you are. The best way to counter this is with long range Q poke and QW poke . This should beat out his base Q-auto trade and slowly pressure him out of lane. Anytime post 6, he is a major threat with his all in. Azir also has very similar scaling to Orianna, but the difference is to land his game-changing ult, he has to dash into battle. This is where you excel in changing teamfights from a safe distance. If your jungler comes to gank, try to make him use his dash aggresively to ensure the kill. Recommend: Dmg Build or Vs AP Assasin if you fall behind. ”

Katfire says “Azir is relatively easy, especially considering the fact that he is one of the hardest champions in the game, and he isn't amazing in the Soloq environment. Avoid getting poked and don't all in him if he is near his turret and has R, he can push you into turret with it. If the Azir is good he will never allow you to E W as he will R you away from your W and make you awkwardly walk toward the dagger and possibly kill you as you try to reach it. Bait out his R and kill him when its down. He is very squishy so it shouldn't be hard.”

DixonTheGuideMaker says “Azir’s are forced to start with their W first. At level 1, their soldiers are very immobile, and so is Azir. At level 2, he'll probably take his Q. He shouldn't have escapes until level 3. Ask your jungler for an early gank to try to snowball lane. Azir's E has a generally long cooldown. If he has dashed recently, take advantage of his escape being down. Be careful if he turns around on you. His shield gives a lot more protection than you think. Azir has to get close for his ultimate to be effective. If he's dashing into a dangerous situation, you can assume he's about to ult”

He has the ability to chunk you for quiet a lot of health and seeing as you are immobile it can be difficult to distance yourself from him. Start with your (Q) and use the ball to zone Azir off his farm. After level 6 you hsould have reasonable kill preasure but be careful not to get into extended skirmishes with him.”

Pre 6 you may have some trouble against him but after 6 he is easy picking. You can use your E to leap over his wall.”

AP WormMaW Mid says “Azir after rework is a bit easier during laning phase, because his soldiers range was reduced, so you might have easier time to farm, but his overall strength is higher, which means that you shouldn't mess with him in face-to-face trade. Just farm up and poke from distance, if you feel confident, that you are ahead enough and your health level is currently way higher than his, you can try to all in, but be cautious, it can easily backfire and you will just throw your advantage straight to his hands.”

Veralion says “MANY BEADS. Oh boy. They keep buffing him and won't stop. Expect to see more and more of this, unfortunately. Azir starts off alright, he doesn't do much damage and you can farm alright for a couple of levels, but he quickly becomes too oppressive to handle by level 4 or 5. It's very easy for him to completely deny you under turret with how his soldiers work. His soldiers deal reduced passthrough damage, so try to make sure you have a shield between you and them. He's squishy, but you can't just all in him through his ult and/or shuffle. Look to roam between waves and kill bot turret ASAP; mid will be a lost cause. Then have bot go mid to deal with the chicken while you farm back up to relevance in a side lane.”

A match up kind of hard in the early game [BR]: Azir tem muito mais alcance que você, permitindo que ele lhe cause muitos danos, e ele pode escapar facilmente com suas habilidades caso você consiga emboscalo.”

RikudouDovahkiin says “Azir may be one of the hardest matchups for Vladimir, especially when in a skilled hand. His high attack speed allows him to pierce through magic resistances easily, combined with Rylai's Scepter you will not be able to chase down him easily. Despite the spike he gets at mid-game, his early game is almost weaker than yours whicy you can utilise. You should land 3rd Q with a proper combo to kill him at early and in late game unless somehow they overfeed you, its kind of difficult to get rid of him in team-fights due to his mobility/slow/R/Zhonya/barrier. If your team has a dedicated assassin type, try to land R before he/she descends upon Azir. For it'll cause Azir to take 10% increased damage from aa/skills. His playstyle is centered around positioning, and that alone combined with his shyness and DPS output MIGHT give you a hard time in teamfights. Care for his 'Zhonya'' invulnerability card, which can also render you defenseless in the middle of a teamfight. So consider that he might pull off surviving your all-in with his Zhonya in a crucial teamfight.”

xSealed says “Lissandra can fight against opponent with a bit longer in attack and ability range but if they are a poke/dps type, most likely she will lose most of the trades in damage and being a bit greedy against Azir is a mistake. He might often stay nearby to his turret so he could ult his enemy towards to it. So avoid close combat when he is too nearby in his turret.”

Nooldles says “Similiar to Orianna in the idea that it is very hard to farm early in the game, He does have a good Ultimate to steal however the all in against Azir is very difficult if he is good. Azir's range is so high that you have to use E1 and LAND E2 to even get onto him but once you are on top of him he can just R you back into his turret or back where you came from, negating all of your ability and allowing him to potentially kill you. Again, like Orianna, outscales you in front to back teamfights later onto the game as well.”

LightningTemplar says “Electrocute setup. Long Sword + Refillable start. Farming in lane is going to be a struggle as he can easily zone you, giving up cs is going to be necessary to avoid taking too much poke. However, Azir struggles against champions with good gap closers and all-ins, use W+E+Q for frequent trades. Avoid using W before R as you'll need a gap closer when he uses R or E. ”

PepeOnDrugs says “Azir has LOTS of range and is a serious lane bully which makes it a difficult early game for Akali. He will use his soldiers to zone you off your farm and the annoying this is they can stand under your turret poking you too. He's squishy though so if you can get up-close to him after lvl 6 you will have no problem killing him, especially if you have some jungler help. Very annoying lane pre 6!”

Ekko Rush B Guides says “Really oppressive Lane. Azir pokes you much from a safe distance, so you should start with a corrupting potion. If he used his Q for minions, or to poke you, you can blink on him, because then you will have few seconds where Azir can't send his soldiers back to him to trade. If he ults you away, wait a bit until your ghost is on top of him and ult back in. Also keep in mind that he has the ability to dash out of your stun and has a small shield with his E when fighting him.”

Lil Tidepod says “Azir is really annoying when playing Ryze. A good Azir is hard to find, but when you find them, he'll lock you out of lane. He outdamages you and can easily outplay you at all points of the game. If you manage to get fed off of roams, you can fight him, but beware of his ultimate, it will ruin your combos. He'll probably dash away before you can get a full combo off, too, so early game trading is off the table. Just push him under turret if you can and look for roams.”

serruh says “Azir's early laning is surprisingly good, pair that up with the fact he outranges you and it makes a bit tricky to navegate in the early levels. with that being said, you can probably match his shove at 6 and look for roams with realm warp. do NOT try to outscale him, he will be massively more useful in teamfights.”

Its a skill matchup. - Walk up, - Q , W , Auto attack AND walk back right after. Do the same when you have your electrocute up again. This is a winning trade for you. When he is low enough, freely go for the kill. at around 35-40% HP you can go for R - Q - W - Auto attack - Ignite. This will be enough to burst him. He will push you away with his ultimate, but it will be too late.”

Daedralus says “Range is the biggest problem early on, and his ultimate can be an obstacle indeed. You must use your speed bonus to your advantage to dodge incoming soldiers and approach him in smarter ways. His cooldowns will then be the death of him on most cases unless he has his summoners or his ultimate, but even so you should be able to catch him. With well timed Q, you can follow his E, and even block his ult if very well timed as you are immovable at that time. Do not underestimate his tower though! By taking this build you are squishier than normal and you cannot life steal off the tower and the only reason this build works so well is the ability to keep yourself alive and as a pain train!”

The best thing to do is rush 30% CDR ASAP so that you can effectively farm from a distance, since he can easily zone you from melee farming with his soldiers. He's also got very high mana costs early game, which makes his early laning a bit less insane. Basically, just try to land a W on him and then run away after proccing your passive.”

Novok says “Do not be afraid to walk up for a Q. The trade ends up equal. If you don't do that he will poke you freely and gain lane authority. Its a skill matchup. - Walk up, - Q , W , Auto attack AND walk back right after. Do the same when you have your electrocute up again. This is a winning trade for you. When he is low enough, freely go for the kill. at around 35-40% HP you can go for R - Q - W - Auto attack - Ignite. This will be enough to burst him. He will push you away with his ultimate, but it will be too late.”

talonmains says “Good Azir means bad time for Talon. Shoves you in at insane speed, pokes you out of lane and hard to kill in lane.

SepekuAW says “This lane is hard because azir has range over you. You need to setup stuns by Q'ing the melee minions once, then when he goes to poke you, E him with the ball on the ground, follow up with a W + Q to proc electrocute. This is really the only efficient way to trade with azir.. Farm this lane out till you get a ludens, if he has no barrier you can solo kill him with ludens + 5 ball ult. Be careful when he hits 6, if he ever throws a soldier out but stops attacking minions he's trying to bait you in so he can E to it and q behind you to ult you. Pay attention and avoid walking up when his soldiers are very forward and he stops attacking/using q.”

CC Diana says “Azir is a lane bully, but thankfully he's easier to deal with since his mini rework. You can start Q or W in this match up though if you start Q you may quickly find yourself running low on mana whilst taking too much damage while going up to melee range for CS. Play this lane safe, give up CS if necessary, wait for 6 or your jungler. Your window of opportunity for fighting Azir is the moment after he uses Q. Once he uses Q, he won't be able to have his soldiers dash to you so use that opportunity to all-in him. Since his rework, you are now able to dash through Emperor's Divide so it's not too big a deal if he ults you away.”

He has very decent harass with his sand soldiers and he can be a nightmare at level 6 with his ult if you were to try to all in him. The key to beating Azir is waiting for him to throw a sand soldier at you. If he misses his Q, go in on him because he will be very vulnerable, especially considering his only way out besides flash is to Q>E combo with his sand soldiers to dash away. ”

moutenn says “If the Azir is better then you he will win. Its a skillmatchup, but you do have the upper hand. Try and engage with w when he q's towards you. Reactivate before they hit, and start punching him. Then you should r when he uses his wall. You will mostlikely kill him, with your q's and e's. It will also look cool. You have to live with being bullied the first couple of levels. ”

qasddsa says “Extremely difficult to deal with in lane because of his soldiers. I recommend starting with a Corrupting Potion and investing into an early Null-Magic Mantle or a MR shard. After laning phase, it gets much easier to kill him with Riftwalk.”

Calikarcha says “One of my 3 favorites (along side Karthus and ASol). Unfortunately, I've never played this from either side, but just try to avoid his poke and poke him as much as you can. Be careful of his shuffle though. ”

LCAU says “His sand soldiers if placed well enough is a struggle to deal against. However, if you bait his soldiers+his Q, you can jump on him with your E>W>Q>R. If you are in low elo, it's actually really easy since they have no idea what they are doing lol.”

Gambinos says “Thing about Azir is that a good Azir will outlane a Yas. He will poke you out pretty heavily, causing you to not be able to go in at all with your strong lvl 2-3. Avoid his minions from coming to you by Wind Walling the closes Azir's minion to you. It cannot advance if WW. But he can still poke you though so watch out. You'll win late game against him so play super passive if you can, or wait for a jg to gank.”

undeadsoldiers says “Azir is a mechanical nightmare. He has a very high skill curve, so not many players will be good on him. He shouldn't be too much of a problem, as Swain is ranged, so he doesn't have to be in the way on Azir's soldiers.”

Prenora says “Azir out ranges you by a lot, but he's telegraphed and mana hungry early, keep your wave cleared so you can harass him from a distance, he has poor wave clear under tower, after 6 try to wait for jungle assistance, if fighting, or just keep csing”

Witwickies says “You both want to poke enemy and farm from distance. Nevetheless, Azir's all-in is harder to perform and, as Zyra, it's less difficult to set up ganks. Try to time Azir's E, as with it he has easy escape route from your R.”

undeadsoldiers says “Poke Azir as much as you can until level 3, when he'll start to bully you. Once Azir uses his E, you have several seconds to poke him for free or get a combo on him. Let him push you in, though, because his soldiers don't last as long under your tower. Banshee's Veil can block the knockback from his ult. You can also outplay his ult with your own ult by blinking over the wall as it's about to shove you. ”

iiCrispi says “His ult is ineffective against your ult because it pushes you away, yet if you cast ult and it hits him you end up going back to him. Deny his cs by going aggro. Keep out for enemy junglers if you do this.”

DuhBrandon says “Azir Could be a problem but most times not really. Due to the fact he is very difficult to play, and the fact that he doesn't win against most champs. the only thing you need to worry about is you getting ganked and you don't have flash because his R can push you towards him making ganks easy and hell and the jungle or azir will just kill you. My advice is to just don't over extended on a azir and don't poke his tower without flash or the knowledge of the whereabouts of his jungler.”

dumb lucker says “Azir can also be very annoying with almost unlimited poke in lane, but you should be able to still combo him when his q is on cd to smack him with autoattacks for a kill. (also be aware of his ult as it will cuck you hard when trying to kill this guy) ”

Smol Jelly says “Azir can also be a rough lane. He's got great poke, and he scales insanely well. Let him push closer towards your tower, so you don't have the threat of being ulted under his tower.”
