Be a bird!
In the lane, try to position your soldiers between the enemy's minions and the enemy champion. This way you can use them both to last hit and to project threat onto your lane opponent.
Be careful about putting down both of the soldiers stored by Arise! Unless you're going all-in, always have a soldier in your back pocket if you need to escape over a wall or if you misposition your other soldier and need damage now.
Think of Emperor's Divide as a defensive ability first and foremost. Use it when the enemy engages on you or your allies. Remember that your team can walk through the soldiers summoned by Emperor's Divide and use this to your advantage when enemy melee champions engage on you.
The Olaf Azir synergy stats shown here demonstrate the areas of his gameplay that do better (or worse) when paired with Azir, compared to his overall stats. Significant differences are areas of focus that highlight how his gameplay changes when paired with this other champion.
Overall, Olaf sees a very large drop in his KDA (ratio of kills and assists to deaths) when paired with Azir. His KDA went down from NaN to NaN. This decrease shows that Azir helps Olaf perform not as well in competitive League of Legends games. Yet, the small difference proves that this performance change is not very impactful.
When Olaf is paired with Azir, he observes a little decrease in his complete damage output. This change may signal that Azir does not help protection for him to deal more damage or that his participation also helps extend the round's duration. Similarly, when Olaf is played together with Azir on the same side, he usually scores many fewer killing sprees compared to when he plays alone. This is contrasting evidence that he is worse when playing alongside Azir.
Additionally, when Olaf plays with Azir on the same side, he typically receives a little less damage than when he fights alone. Getting dealt not as much damage may mean that Azir does a decent job of covering Olaf in team fights.
There is no universally accepted best champion pairing for Olaf that will always be his top ally. However, overall, Azir is a decent teammate for Olaf. By locking into the same team as Olaf, he raises their win rate by 1.3% to 50.3%. This demonstrates that there is a potentially meaningful bond between Olaf and Azir that results in them performing at the top of their game together than alone.
Azir has a much greater difficulty compared to Olaf. That means Olaf players must be careful when finding Azir allies to play with, as they will need a much greater level of skill to be able to cooperate well with you.
Playing cooperatively, Olaf players should observe an overall large increase in your team’s capacity to deal physical damage. Together, these champions can provide a great amount of sustained physical damage.
In contrast, by bringing Olaf and Azir together, you may not be giving your other teammates a great deal of protection for burst damage. We recommend you have other champions on your team that nullifies this disparity in their kit.
Regardless of the ability of your Azir teammate, you need to focus on increasing your gold income, warding to avoid ambushes, and taking down objectives. If you heed this simple advice, you will do well anyway.
