Guide to Synergizing Azir and Gwen

Tips for Playing as Azir with Gwen

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 Gwen Will Play

Gwen can still damage enemies outside her Hallowed Mists, especially with her Ultimate's range.

Some of Gwen's Abilities can apply her passive to multiple enemies, so aim them at groups to get maximum damage and healing.

Always be Attacking - In addition to dealing bonus damage, Gwen's Attacks empower or reset many of her Abilities.

This is contrasting evidence that he is worse when playing alongside Gwen.

Is Azir better when played alongside Gwen?

There is no top ally for Azir that will always be his #1 teammate. Yet, overall, Gwen is a below average companion for Azir. By locking into the same side as Azir, she drops their win rate by -2.5% to 47.7%. This shows that there is a harmful bond between Azir and Gwen that allows them to perform not as well together than alone.

Gwen has a much lower diffuclty than Azir. That means you don't need to be very careful when arranging Gwen teammates to fight alongside, as they will need a much lower level of skill to cooperate well with you.

Playing on the same side, Azir players should witness an overall large increase in your team’s capability to dish out massive AD. Together, these champs should be able to take down targets with auto-attacks and other AD damage abilities.

In contrast, by grouping Azir and Gwen together, you may not be granting your side very much engage. We recommend you include other champions on your team that neutralizes this relative hole in their kit.

Regardless of the ability of your Gwen teammate, you need to focus on maximizing your income, staying alive by avoiding foolish fights, and clearing objectives. If you heed this simple advice, you should do well, regardless.
