Advice to Understand How Azir Will Play
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.

Overall, Sion 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 difference may indicate that Azir doesn't help cover for him to deal more damage or that his presence on the team also helps extend the match's duration.

This is contrasting evidence that he is worse when playing synergisticly with Azir.

Is Sion better when played alongside Azir?
There is no perfect companion for Sion that will no matter what be his ideal teammate. However, Azir is a not very good ally for Sion. By locking into the same side as Sion, he decreases their win rate by -1.2% to 49.0%. This demonstrates that there is a bad bond between Sion and Azir that results in them performing worse together than alone.
Azir has a much greater difficulty compared to Sion. That means you should be very careful when enlisting Azir comrades to play with, as they will have to have a much greater level of skill to be able to do well with you.
Fighting alongside, Sion players will likely witness an overall large increase in your team’s capacity to tank a lot of damage. When paired, these champions might be able to provide enough cover for their team's carries.
In contrast, by grouping Sion and Azir together, you may not be granting your side very much attack damage. We recommend you bring other champions on your team that neutralizes this relative gap in this pairing's kit.
Regardless of the ability of your Azir teammate, you should focus on maximizing your gold income, staying alive by avoiding foolish fights, and taking down objectives. If you do this, you will do well, regardless.
