Guide to Synergizing Thresh and Azir

Tips for Playing as Thresh with Azir

Communication is key when making use of Thresh's lantern. Let your teammates know how you like to use it.

Death Sentence and Flay can be combined in either cast order for powerful combinations.

Thresh can collect souls without needing to kill units himself. Planning your map position to be near the most deaths will help to maximize soul collection.

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.

Overall, Thresh sees a large worsening in his KDA (ratio of kills and assists to deaths) when paired with Azir. His KDA went down from NaN to NaN.

This change may indicate that Azir doesn't help protection for him to dish out more damage or that his allyship also helps increase the game's duration. Similarly, when Thresh is played alongside Azir on the same side, he usually scores many fewer killing sprees compared to when he plays alone. This is contrasting evidence that he is worse when playing alongside Azir.

Additionally, when Thresh plays with Azir on the same team, he typically receives a little less damage than when he fights alone. Getting dealt not as much damage could mean that Azir does a decent job of protecting Thresh in teamfights.

Is Thresh better when played alongside Azir?

There is no top ally for Thresh that will no matter what be his best synergy. Yet, overall, Azir is a very typical teammate for Thresh. By locking into the same side as Thresh, he drops their win rate by -0.1% to 48.4%. This shows that there is a weak synergy between Thresh and Azir that allows them to perform not as well together than without each other.

Azir has a greater difficulty than Thresh. That means Thresh players need to be cautious when lining up Azir comrades to play with, as they will require a greater level of skill to fight well with you.

Playing on the same side, Thresh players will likely see an overall large increase in your team’s capability to deal magical damage. Combined, these two are able to dish out a surprising amount of magic type damage.

Although, by grouping Thresh and Azir together, you probably will not be providing your other allies a great deal of engage. We recommend you include other champions on your team that fills this relative hole in their potential.

Regardless of your Azir ally's skill level, you need to focus on maximizing your gold income, outlasting your enemies, and taking down objectives. If you follow these simple suggestions, you should do well, regardless.
