He can delete off-tanks in 2 seconds. AoE.

He needs the right setup, he needs protection, he needs a few items. He's a real AP carry. Not burst mage or a tanky dps mage, he's a full dps mage. Syndra is a better poker and burst mage, but if she fails at deleting a carry or stunning the whole team, Azir's damage becomes outscales her. Hard.

But yeah, you need bad opponents or a good team to make him shine, he's not worth it in solo-queue or even in random games when you don't build teh right team to support him.

Fill the team with tanks and cc, though, and leave the damage to him and the ADC and he'll shine like no other mage.
