Guide to Synergizing Azir and Garen

Tips for Playing as Azir with Garen

Be a bird!

In the lane, try to position your soldiers between the enemy's minions and the enemy champion. This way you can use them both to last hit and to project threat onto your lane opponent.

Be careful about putting down both of the soldiers stored by Arise! Unless you're going all-in, always have a soldier in your back pocket if you need to escape over a wall or if you misposition your other soldier and need damage now.

Think of Emperor's Divide as a defensive ability first and foremost. Use it when the enemy engages on you or your allies. Remember that your team can walk through the soldiers summoned by Emperor's Divide and use this to your advantage when enemy melee champions engage on you.

Advice to Understand How Garen Will Play

Garen is only constrained by cooldowns, making items such as Black Cleaver very effective for him.

Garen's regeneration greatly increases if he can avoid receiving damage for several seconds.

Judgment deals maximum damage when only hitting a single target. For effective trading, try to position such that only the enemy champion is hit.

Is Azir better when played alongside Garen?

There is no top champion pairing for Azir that will 100% of the time be his ideal synergy. However, Garen is a relatively poor ally for Azir. By being on the same team as Azir, he decreases their win rate by -2.6% to 47.6%. This shows that there is a bad bond between Azir and Garen that allows them to perform worse together than without each other.

Garen has a much lower diffuclty than Azir. That means you don't need to be very careful when finding Garen teammates to play with, as they will require a much lower level of skill to be able to play well with you.

Working cooperatively, Azir players will likely witness an overall large increase in your team’s capability to deal physical damage. Combined, these champions can tear through the other team with a lot of physcial damage.

Conversely, by grouping Azir and Garen together, you probably will not be providing your team a great deal of crowd control. Plan to have other champions on your team that neutralizes this gap in their playstyle.

Regardless of your Garen ally's skill level, you need to focus on increasing your income, outlasting your enemies, and clearing objectives. If you do this, you should do well anyway.
