Guide to Synergizing Sona and Azir

Advice to Understand How Azir Will Play

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.

By locking into the same side as Sona, he lowers their win rate by -0.1% to 50.3%. This shows that there is not really a strong bond between Sona and Azir that results in them performing worse together than alone.

Azir has a much greater difficulty compared to Sona. That means you should be careful when arranging Azir allies to fight alongside, as they will have to have a much greater level of skill to be able to cooperate well with you.

Working cooperatively, Sona players should witness an overall large increase in your team’s capability to deal magical damage. Combined, these champs can deal quite a lot of AP type damage.
