Guide to Synergizing Azir and Sylas

Tips for Playing as Azir with Sylas

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 Sylas Will Play

Clever use of enemy ultimates can open up new possibilities to approach teamfights.

Wait for you or your enemy to reach low health before using Kingslayer for maximum effect.

Space out your ability usage to get maximum effect from Petricite Burst.

This demonstrates that there is a harmful bond between Azir and Sylas that results in them performing worse together than alone.

Sylas has a much lower diffuclty than Azir. That means Azir players don't need to be cautious when lining up Sylas comrades to fight alongside, as they will have to have a much lower level of skill to work well with you.

Fighting alongside, you should expect to witness an overall large increase in your team’s capability to deal magical damage. Combined, these champions are able to dish out a surprising amount of magic type damage.
