Azir
GameplayAzir is a champion in League of Legends.[1]
Abilities
- No additional notes.
- Ascension differences
- Azir can summon a Sun Disc in the center of the map provided the Ancient Ascended is dead. The Sun Disc will be destroyed if the Ancient Ascended respawns while active.
- Nearsighting effects will only allow Azir to perform attacks from soldiers within his own sight radius.
- Azir must rank Arise! as his first ability, and will do so automatically if he reaches level 2 before ranking an ability.
- Azir can only command his soldiers to attack if he is able to declare basic attack commands himself, meaning crowd control effects that disable attacking, such as disarm, do not allow him to order his soldiers to attack in his stead.
- Spell shield will block a single attack from the soldiers.
- Damage to enemy champions from Sand Soldier stabs will draw minion aggro even if the enemy champion was not the primary target.(bug)
- Attacking with the soldiers will trigger Hail of Blades.
- Sand Soldiers will attack the closest enemy to Azir when using attack move (or A + RMB / Shift + RMB) or auto-attack.
An exclamation mark (!) will appear above the Sand Soldier's head when within the range of an enemy 
turret.
- Howling Abyss differences edit
- Azir will start the game with one point already ranked in Arise!, allowing him to allocate the other two to his other abilities.
- Ultra Rapid Fire differences edit
- Limited to 3 Sand Soldiers active.
- Charge cooldown set to 4.8 / 4.4 / 4 / 3.6 / 3.2 seconds.
- The soldier units are spawned only 175 units behind Azir, but do not control the knock back directly. Each comes with a missile that travels the same path and conveys the damage and knockback effect.
- The furthest area (from 325 to 175 units behind Azir) is covered by a separate set of missiles with the same effects.
- All of the soldiers and their missiles will end the charge prematurely when one encounters Wind Wall / Unbreakable / Blade Whirl or upon colliding with terrain that they cannot charge through.
- The charge starts at 0.25 seconds into the cast time.
- If Azir dies before this point, the soldiers will still form the wall but the missiles will not spawn, therefore not dealing damage or knocking back.(bug)
- Emperor's Divide will fire from wherever Azir was at the start of the cast time.
- When the dash of the soldiers comes to a halt, all not-yet-affected enemies on top of the soldiers' landing locations (125 radius) are also knocked back.
- Emperor's Divide will not be canceled if Azir dies during the cast time.
- While the soldiers are charging forward, the wall is not impassable terrain.
- This means enemies that are immune to airborne effects can pass through the wall while its moving.
- This means enemies that are immune to
- The wall will count as terrain for the purposes of 'into terrain' effects (e.g. Condemn, Dredge Line, Heroic Charge). This will only affect enemies, allies will pass through the wall in all circumstances, even if knocked into it by an enemy.
