I completely agree with you. Riot is basically telling us: "If you want to become a high dps character, get AP and CDR.  AP is everything and they give you an 80% AS bonus if you max your CDR.  I rushed Nashor's in two games, and Azir felt much more powerful as soon as I completed the item.  The main thing is probably the bonus AS from his passive that he got from Nashor's CDR.  Definitely a great item on him.

I forgot about the tether when testing him as well. I initially noticed that I could attack from far away, but never tried to make use of it. Then I tried casting W in advance (Outside the enemy's sight, to immediately assult him with Q upon arrival.  Azir is going to require some serious amount of thinking to play.
