Guide to Synergizing Illaoi and Azir

Tips for Playing as Illaoi with Azir

Vessel

Tentacles are an immense source of power. Don't fight without them.

Spirits inherit their target's current health. If making a

is your goal, try whittling your opponent's health down a bit first to make killing the spirit easier.

Leap of Faith is best used to follow-up a strong engage or when being engaged upon. Be careful about being the first one into a fight.

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.
