Hey guys! Feel free to drop a comment if you need anything clarified or want something explained in better detail.

Isn't worth to buy Nashor's Thoot? Why?

While Nashors tooth has some very good stats for Azir, I feel that athenes provides most of the same bonuses while also providing him with some much needed tankiness and mana regen. Also athenes actually provides a decent passive for Azir whereas Nashor's is wasted.

Yeah but what about the 50% attack speed bonus? Plus I'm not sure if Azir is that mana hungry to require Athenes.

Just asking anyways, I didn't played him yet.

I agree that the 50% attack speed bonus is nice but I still don't think it is good enough to warrant taking it over Athenes. If you do play him I think you will find that with how much he spams his abilities he is indeed a very mana hungry champion, especially early on. As such I would still recommend Athenes over Nashor.

Yo men , great guide , i do prefer athenes over nathoor's tooth too , but i love to play with the ancien wish and i don't know wich item i should get off of your example item build , could you tell me what should be the best build including ancient wish ?

Sorry for the worse grammar ever tho =3

Sorry, but I'm not sure what you are saying. Not sure what ancient wish is referring to.

Ho sorry , the spell vamp / cdr thing i tryed to traduce it words for words , so i just wonder what item of you example build i could change for the "book that give spell vamp ap and cdr" ^^

Ok, I see what you mean now. If you really wanted to pick up Will of the Ancients I would suggest swapping out liandrys and also switching your boots to sorcerers shoes.

I haven't played Azir that much times for saying what could be a perfect build, however I have made some tries and I have find out some nice builds.


-Rod of Ages is quite usefull both for your E scaling on health and for the nice amount of AP and sustain it gives (passive). However, it isn't strictly fundamental, it can be replaced.
-ALTERNATIVE: Rylais. Quite nice amount of health and it gives you the same ap of rod after full stacked passive. So it's just Rod's Mana (and a small amount of health) against Rylai's passive.

-Nashor Tooth it's undoubtedly the core item. Your "copies" attack speed stacks on yours. Nashor also gives you an huge amount (20%) of CDR, which is fundamental both for your W, that allow you to takedown turrets as ants, and for your passive (as stacking on cdr).

-Lich Bane: it is quite usefull, expecially in late game at helping you taking down turrets and also because your skills will have a ridiculous cooldown.

-Zhonya: it is always a good situational item, but i don't like it very much on Azir, since he has got very good escapes and very low CD on them.
-Rabadon is Rabadon. Just that.
-ALTERNATIVE: DFG. It stacks well with your passive, expecially if you don't buy Ionians. Otherwise you'll exceed the 40% cdr limit, so it's less usefull than Rabadon.
Another alternative is Morellonomicon which gives you 20% CDR, and a good passive in certain cases.

-Ionian Boots: it stacks with your passive. Quite nice. the only alternative is "Sorcerer Shoes" but those are not as good as the firsts.

OTHERS Options:
-Chalice: an alternative to morello. Gives you huge mana regen, but it's only situational. < Morello
-Abyssal: Isn't worth. Just situational.
-Guinsoo: Isn't worth. Not even situational.
-Lyandri: nope. It wouldn't be a choice of mine if not against an hard tanky team. Still stacks on soldiers' dmg.
EDIT: (misunderstanding) -Void staff: MPEN. Nice but i still prefer DFG if u didn't hit the 40% cdr. if u already have 40% cdr obviously don't buy DFG but Void (or Abyssal)
EDIT: -Will of the Ancient: Nice for the spell vamp that stacks on soldier's dmg. It still doesn't stack on W used on turrets.

I'd build like this:
1) Ionians / Sorcerers or any other kind of situational boots
2) Rod of Ages
3) Nashor Tooth
4) Lich Bane
5) Abyssal Scepter / Death Fire Grasp / Abyssal Scepter
6) Rabadon Deathcap
? Will of the Ancient
If u buy Ionians don't buy DFG obviously.
If u buy Rylais instead of RoA buy an Athene instead of the Lich Bane or prob the Abyssal. I consider Lich Bane very important since Azir will be the new "Trynda Split Pusher / Backdoorer", even better. At the end of the build you will just need to W on turrets (800 dmg) Lich Bane (400 dmg) W again (4,5 sec. cd) and Lich Bane. The turret is gone. Pick Teleport for GGWP.

Chalice --> Azir don't need mana storage
Put 5 in speed atck on masteries then buy 2 item at 20% CDR (that worth)
Where is nashor? best core item on azir...

Who say diamond know everything?

Azir is very mana hungry as you'll come to find out. With Nashoor's tooth although the attack speed is nice, the passive is wasted which is pretty huge. You can build them both and change up the boots and masteries slightly to compensate if you really want to run it, but a wasted passive is a pretty big deal.
