Use your Sand Soldiers in a lane to kill minions and harass the enemy lane champion.

Shifting Sands is a great tool to enhance mobility and get you into the center of a teamfight. At that point you can use Emperor's Divide to break the enemy team's formations.

Additional Azir Build Insights

LoL Azir players will find him to be a difficult champion to build out properly. You will see that his build varies when he is fighting either well-rounded or highly focused team compositions, meaning you shouldn't select the same Azir build every game of League of Legends

The most essential items to include in your champion's build include: Luden's Tempest, Rabadon's Deathcap, and Shadowflame. Those who added these items in their builds had a much better win rate than those who went for other builds for Azir. Likewise, if you are fighting a varied enemy team comp, you should strongly consider getting yourself the Precision, and Sorcery runes. In recent games, he won the greatest number of his rounds when built with these runes.

We established our Azir build guidance by examining 41,089 recently ranked LoL games with him in them. We only advise the highest winrate Azir builds that were used by ranked players enough times for us to advise them. With so many matches in our dataset, we are very confident in our recommended builds.
