I never understood what the fuss does dashing have to do with a controling shurima emperor, could've stayed like this just remove his e and he'll stay away from pro
i like how after 100 nerfs azir is still an extremely strong champion and one of the hardest champs to master mechanically but what i dont get is how zilean can have an ult that revives him and team mates, yasuo has infinite dashes, garen can deal true damage to the villain with no mana cost, teemo can be in the game...and they choose to nerf mechanically hardest champion to master riot logic
Garen has infinite mana,build him right,he can just run away and regen health really fast. Yasuo is somewhat balanced. Zilean is somewhat balanced. Veigar can have infinite ap. Master Yi can penta kill easily if built right. Teemo is strong af. Rengar 1-shots people Darius 1-shots people Cho'gath is balanced,I agree with you there. Warwick is REALLY strong early game,so he is SOMEwhat balanced,because he sucks late game,I kinda agree with you there. Ryze,his new rework makes him broken and unkillable when built full AP. Ashe is balanced,I agree with you there. Kayle,if built right,is basically unkillable if she has mana,mainly because of her ult and her dmg abillites. Annie is somewhat OP,but when she is ganked/pinned down.She's dead.I agree with you there. Xin Zhao,build him full lifesteal and he can solo Baron,and his passive means kills are easier.So he's basically unkillable. Udyr lategame is basically manaless,his mana costs. Twisted Fate isn't balanced,if he's built full ap,get ready to die,because his cc can insta kill you. Sion is balanced.I agree with you there. Taric is the guy who will be tanky no matter what,he can protect his teammates make them invulnerable.He's a gr8 support.Somewhat balanced.I agree with you there. Jax can 1 v 1 almost anyone because of his passive,build him at least one guinissho rageblade and attk dmg build and he is the duelist. Fiddlesticks,full ap,nah,his lifesteal abbility,not balanced. Nasus,I made a mistake,he doesn't have infinite ARMOR stacks,he has infinite ATTACK DMG stacks with his abilities (siphoning strike),which makes him VERY strong on late game. Dr.Mundo is balanced.I agree with you there. Sona is balanced.I agree with you there.
yea will be fun. i hope they dont make him easier like they did with syndra... i stopped enjoying syndra when her skills were made so she pretty much cant miss her stun anymore lol
if you ever played azir and are wondering why he doesn't seem very good, this spotlight doesn't talk about an extremely important mechanic mastered by all pro azir players: You can use conquering sands (Q) while dashing with shifting sands (E). This changes everything about azir, absolutely everything. His escape range, his engage potential, his combo speed, his burst... When I first bought Azir i didn't know that, but after I realized u could do that Azir went from fucking sloppy to play to fucking awesome.
You're talking about how "OP" is every champion in every spotlight. Well.. stop doin that bros. Imagine if Trynda were coming out now. u Would be out of your mind with his ulty in the gameplay section. "OMFG this champ's ulty makes him undead!?for 5 FUCKING SECONDS!? RIPROT RITO." :D i mean, relax! Anyway i love how they expand your gameplay options in this game, if they focus on Season 5 to fix the community this could be one of the best games ever. Great Job Riot.
While I do agree that that mentality is stupid, newly released champs are a bit stronger so that people buy them. New heroes always have some issue that the PTR magically didn't notice was too strong.
Cute is justice Cute is victory Exhaust OR cc. Don't lose the trade. 1 ult for at least 2 summs is not worth it. Ignite do halven the effect of self-healing including lifesteal and his Q.
"fix the community" you really think that's even remotely possible?Riot is not responsible for people not raising their kids correctly and people just being assholes,they are everywhere online these days.
Giacomo Laudenzi Unlike everyone in silver I actually practice in normals a LOT with new champs before going ranked... The mentality usually is "OMG NEW CHAMP OP INSTA LOCK ME CARRY DIS SHIET" and then they end up 0/15 or some other ridiculous stats...
dex, people should stop complaining about how a person play. I mean, if it's a normal i understand: u are trying your champ, you are trying to get in confidence with his/her ability. But if it's a ranked you should have already played a lot that champ. LoL is a team game where every player is essential to win the match. If a player fails, the team suffers his mistake. Unfotunately lol is full of dickheads.
I remember being so hyped for Azir back in freshman year of high school I ran home after I got off the bus and Azir was disabled for literally a week the second after he came out
I don't remember the last time Phreak rolled out so many puns of damage in one spotlight. Especially the one about the sandstorm. That really was Darudest. Support my alcohol addiction by watching my League stuffs. I'll see myself out now.
Champ looks so fun but tricky to play. Seems like he will be strong and useful to a skilled player with the knowledge of league and Azir mechanics, but a champ that will suck for people aren't as skilled. Awesome job with that one Riot!

Really good spotlight and really interesting champion. Although it kind of seems as though he might have to much control of the mid lane... and/or any lane for that matter. I'm already expecting nerfs and he hasn't even been released yet.
You mostly do :P remember yasuo? or most champion spotlights? everyone always thinks its kind off gamebreaking or something. But yea, the champion spotlight was really well done, best one imo yet.
They are not that hard honestly. Gets some getting used to for sure but its not really hard to use a combo with him. W (auto attack untill enemy gets out of soldiers range) then Q+E+W (for a second soldier). Try to focus on using a one soldier combo at first (add the second once you get used to the champ). Its not that big of a deal to use just one W since the second soldier only deal 25% of the normal damage and the damage from Q is the same wether or not you have two soldiers (cause the damage is only applied by the first soldier that hits). You'll still deal a very good chunk of damage this way and its not that hard to pull off. As for his ult, early game i STRONGLY recommend to always keep it as an anti-gank ability. Once you use your Combo, you can't use your E to escape, so you are really vulnerable to ganks at that point. Keep the ult to save your ass out of there. Once you start team fighting however you can use the ult to split/block the enemy team which isn't that hard to pull off either. Using the ult on a one or more ennemys in jungle is also very effective as you can really block them in a corner.
Always love these old champ spotlight. Looking through these old comments saying stuffs like "oh my god the mechanics" but now we have champs like Aphelios.
This is one of those champs where you rly see the difference between somebody who plays him a lot and somebody who doesnt play him a lot. I Iike it as the satisfaction of hearing "I never rly see a good azir so it's cool to see one now" never gets old. ^^
people already crying over the doubles passives, soo much bronze, and some1 already told you but the turret passive is not really that usefull cuz early game where are you going to need that? and then it has a 3 minutes cool down and only last 1 minute and has low hp, is not op or bad, is good just that
CONGRATS RITO!!! You have made another hard but masterable champion that is completely different from other mages PS: plz reduce the damage of heimerdingers turrents (we can't destroy them if there are no minions or creeps to block the immense damage they do PLZ....HE cant just go anywhere, place down all his turrents, and bam you cant kill him without dieing and him just loling all over chat!!!)
here is a hint: buy syndra.. play against heim.. just w his turret throw it at that bastard then q.. does dmg and destroys his turrets.. he cant do shit after that
dont know but the old champion designs are so awensome still classic alone the idea for this champ is genius with his units and his ult "phalax" just amazing
i remember back in season 4 - 5 everyone was hyped about azir, when he first released, riot had to disable him for a couple of days, then a patch later they're already changing & nerfing him. my god, this champion was perfect the way he was when you released him, removing his knockup actually killed azir... no joke... removing the bonus AS from his passive too.. rip azir 2014 - 2015, the azir now is no where as good as you were.
FlamingHotRamen Azir and Xerath were ancient friends, before Xerath betrayed Azir during a ceremony to make him Immortal. He killed Azir and made himself immortal instead.
Using his W on turrets was really cool considering his soldiers can’t hit them. I think the R dash prevention was a little strong though since it already knocks people pretty far back. I’d rather it briefly slowed people or something tbh.
Congratulations Riot, you just made a bunch of money off of me. No joke though, ever since concept art of this guy was circling around way back, I was hoping he would be real. Anyone else remember those pictures of him from a while ago?
I hate the patch that removes his knockup on E. Like really, he's already squishy. We can barely escape now. I love playing Azir, so here's hoping he doesn't get nerfed again.
at first i thought Azir would be poor and lame champion but now I see it's only the sun disc that makes him stupid, that spell is overpowered beyond anything Riot came up with so far
You said that his passive make him stupid, and then you say that is is overpowered...hmm..your logic amazes me. Also, why is that passive overpowered? Don't forget about double ctitical strike on yasuo.
@luiz7542 no he wouldn't, zed is in wild rift and they ported him pretty nicely , now Zoe is coming, which is also kinda wierd controls, Azir would be easy just add slide to the Q and select the soldier you wanna dash to with E, and that's it
Yasuo has unlimited dashes, Graves can't have his cigar, and Veigar can deal 1000 damage with no effort?
Better nerf Azir
That's what happens when you have an overloaded kit like Azir's, one that's easy to abuse by the intelligent players.
Wisshee azir dosent need nerf he instead needs buff at the amount his been weakened

boooy you were right
I love the turret ability, but the other abilities seem so hard to use.. :/

You'll still deal a very good chunk of damage this way and its not that hard to pull off.
As for his ult, early game i STRONGLY recommend to always keep it as an anti-gank ability. Once you use your Combo, you can't use your E to escape, so you are really vulnerable to ganks at that point. Keep the ult to save your ass out of there.

Yasuo IS balanced, he just makes people mad for some reason.
people already crying over the doubles passives, soo much bronze, and some1 already told you but the turret passive is not really that usefull cuz early game where are you going to need that? and then it has a 3 minutes cool down and only last 1 minute and has low hp, is not op or bad, is good just that
actually there are some not op champs that has 2 passive too?
such as vlad?
Nice new video layout Rito ;D
I love your animations and you should do one of him
Walrus Man But we have one animation of Azir - LoL Anime - Do not feed AZIR! (League of Legends Animation) ;D
CONGRATS RITO!!!
You have made another hard but masterable champion that is completely different from other mages
PS: plz reduce the damage of heimerdingers turrents
(we can't destroy them if there are no minions or creeps to block the immense damage they do
PLZ....HE cant just go anywhere, place down all his turrents, and bam you cant kill him without dieing and him just loling all over chat!!!)
Or you could just learn how to play Syndra.
heim is easy, focus down heim at range or bait their lasers using a tank and go in for the kill on mr squishy.
You don't just walk into a heim nest.
akondar i prefer to call him heimer, not heim. But that's just me.
Turrets**
No 'n'
here is a hint: buy syndra.. play against heim.. just w his turret throw it at that bastard then q.. does dmg and destroys his turrets.. he cant do shit after that
miss this version of Azir
definitely darudest way... COME ON PHREAK
Hell yeah
Did he really just say "Darudest"... Yeah im officially done
also, darudest way to deny gold? probably the best pun i've ever heard on these.
This is Phreak level content
dont know but the old champion designs are so awensome still classic alone the idea for this champ is genius with his units and his ult "phalax" just amazing
i remember back in season 4 - 5 everyone was hyped about azir, when he first released, riot had to disable him for a couple of days, then a patch later they're already changing & nerfing him. my god, this champion was perfect the way he was when you released him, removing his knockup actually killed azir... no joke... removing the bonus AS from his passive too.. rip azir 2014 - 2015, the azir now is no where as good as you were.
how dare you still not RELEASING ME even after the champion spotlight
if Azir came out last year people would lose their minds
Welcome back to UA-cam's 2019 recommendations...
Watch how his kit collapsed over the years! I miss his (lasting) anti-dash wall so much...
lol Renekton, Nasus and Azir all reference the Egyptian mythology gods Sobek , Anubis and Ra
They should make pharos team skin
Im egyptian btw :D
FlamingHotRamen Azir and Xerath were ancient friends, before Xerath betrayed Azir during a ceremony to make him Immortal. He killed Azir and made himself immortal instead.
I think this is quiet old but xerath resembles seth the god of chaos as he himself unleshes chaos and the father of sobek as he manipilated renekton
@@slimghost645 no offense but not a real Egyptian, Simply an Arab.
Patch 6.10
Azir:
Fuck ALL of this.
+KHfan0011 I don't get it what happened to him?
+BrokeDown he has been getting nerf after nerf after nerf
+sayanskywolf13 I'd say that some mechanics got removed and replaced with others
getting nerf in 6.14 again im fucking done with this game
+Dutch League Community versatile*
Darudest way... Riot, did I just fall in love with you all over again?
I noticed it too omg ...
But whats the song called guys ??
Ch1ck3nfox idk. definitely not blitzcrank
Ch1ck3nfox Sandstorm :P. Which totally matches Azir's look and theme too :3
Basic attacking the enemy team under their nexus / towers without being targeted has to be one of the most enjoyable things ever.

thanks riot!
Using his W on turrets was really cool considering his soldiers can’t hit them. I think the R dash prevention was a little strong though since it already knocks people pretty far back. I’d rather it briefly slowed people or something tbh.
I want to see bronze V ppl playing this champ :D
Some bronze players aren't bad ya know
and then?
will palmer
said no one ever
boym33tsjew except he just said it HERR DERR
He's not that hard to play.
Video length is 9:11, he can rebuild towers... Coincidence? I think not!
You are 1 second off.
9:10 actually...
illuminati confirmed.
I didn't get it :s
On my screen its 9:10
One of the greatest champ spotlights ever
Still one of my favourite champions!!!
Anyone else notice Azir's voice was different in this video compared to his in-game voice?
Finally someone else who noticed!
Wow. His mechanics are unlike anything ever made. Riot has really outdone itself this time.
Hello My name is Azir and I was so happy to see this vid
Congratulations Riot, you just made a bunch of money off of me.
No joke though, ever since concept art of this guy was circling around way back, I was hoping he would be real.
Anyone else remember those pictures of him from a while ago?
Who doesnt remember Serth :-D
Yeah
Oops ment Seth
hrisi441 i remember seth :P
I will be the best Azir player
I hate the patch that removes his knockup on E. Like really, he's already squishy. We can barely escape now. I love playing Azir, so here's hoping he doesn't get nerfed again.
Jinxed the ass outta him.
oooh boy
The mechanics are REAL
Azir was conceptualised before Summoner's Rift got a Visual Update? Wow...
Darude sandstorm joke √
Tons of damage joke √
Rekt √
Fishing trip joke √
Insec joke √
Skewer the scorpion √
Bird joke / final form √
PHREAK IS ON FIRE.
1:19 I swear I heard "golden experience" instead of "gold and experience"
at first i thought Azir would be poor and lame champion but now I see it's only the sun disc that makes him stupid, that spell is overpowered beyond anything Riot came up with so far
I am 100 percent sure that his passive will be nerfed :/
the passive has a really long cooldown. plus his sun disc towers will die on their own so just avoid them
You said that his passive make him stupid, and then you say that is is overpowered...hmm..your logic amazes me. Also, why is that passive overpowered? Don't forget about double ctitical strike on yasuo.
. Last time i checked poppy and sion have some pretty busted passives to and we all know how top tier they are.....
Ryze's passive is broken. Ryze the champion is good, but not broken.
Can't wait for this champ to be in WR!
Very good skills...Maybe the best of new champions...
Nikos Trelos he is..
Imagine riot release this champ in wildrift so wierd
Bruhh
It'll be almost impossible doing the combos, lol nope
@@janssajass i was thinking the same thing too. But for some reason, now. I think azir can implemented in wild rift
@luiz7542 no he wouldn't, zed is in wild rift and they ported him pretty nicely , now Zoe is coming, which is also kinda wierd controls, Azir would be easy just add slide to the Q and select the soldier you wanna dash to with E, and that's it
"this is DARUDEist way to deny gold from your opponent" Phreak you scoundrel
I like the new champion spotlight designs and concepts. The music was nice. So was the ending joke. Great job Riot.
Need this for LOL WR!
Welcome to League of Legends, Champion Spotlight, featuring Azir, the nerfed Emperor.
So OP
Goes to every champion.

Just like Gnar...

Jamesy I agree everyone says the same thing about every new champ
Man how the time flies by when watching League!
