Gameplay Style
Azir is primarily played as a mage/marksman/specialist, leveraging their ranged combat style to dominate in the midlane. Since their release in Patch 4.16, players have come up with a bunch of different strategies and builds to maximize Azir's potential.
As a magical-focused champion who uses Mana to cast their abilities, Azir requires players to carefully manage their resources while positioning effectively to deal maximum damage. The champion's design makes them particularly effective against grouped enemies with AoE abilities and burst damage.
Azir's Story
Azir was a mortal emperor of Shurima in a far distant age, a proud man who stood at the cusp of immortality. His hubris saw him betrayed and murdered at the moment of his greatest triumph, but now, millennia later, he has been reborn as an Ascended being of immense power. With his buried city risen from the sand, Azir seeks to restore Shurima to its former glory.
