Guide to Countering Azir as Aurelion Sol

Tips for Playing as Aurelion Sol against Azir

You can use Comet of Legend's flight to grow Starsurge to massive proportions.

Comet of Legend allows you to move quickly around the map; use it to put pressure on other lanes.

Advice to Win Against Azir

Try to think of Sand Soldiers as fire. Don't stand in the fire.

Azir relies on his soldiers to deal damage and can only move them so often. Try to capitalize on windows of time when his soldiers are stationary.

Azir has immense damage over a prolonged amount of time but lacks the upfront burst of other mages. Try to burst him out before he can turn a confrontation around.
