Azir Matchup

Azir Matchup:

Summoners:
- High Elo: Flash Ghost/Teleport
- Mid Elo: Flash Ghost/Teleport
- Low Elo: Flash Ghost

Runes and Build:
- High Elo: Scaling Predator
- Mid Elo: Scaling Predator
- Low Elo: Scaling Predator

Why?:
- High Elo: He pokes super well against melees and is also a cancer champion to deal with even as a ranged, so Predator will help us get on top of him. Ghost helps us stay on top of him but if unconfident, then take Teleport.
- Mid Elo: Same as High Elo
- Low Elo: Bad Azirs in Low Elo can't poke that well so you can go in a lot more often making Ghost the better option.

How to win?:
- High Elo: Just like Akshan matchup, when you're on top of him, stand in front of him or wherever he places his soldiers to make it harder for him to escape. Unless he's a good Azir and shuffles in zig-zags then it's kinda doomed.
- Mid Elo: Same as High Elo but more forgiving as Mid Elo Azir's won't shuffle in zig-zags but rather a straight line when trying to escape, so you can easily block them off by standing in front of them.
- Low Elo: Same as Mid Elo, except it's pretty free besides the poking. Low Elo Azir's probably don't even know what a shuffle is.

General Tips:
Try not to get poked too hard, give up on CS if you have to because EXP is more useful as Garen since you just need your ultimate to be able to kill Azir. Be careful for when he ults as that'll stop you from being able to stay on top of him. If he ever ults, best to give up chase unless you have flash and he doesn't.

Starting Item:
- High Elo: Doran's Shield then Cull
- Mid Elo: Doran's Shield
- Low Elo: Doran's Shield
- All Elos: Make sure to stock up on potions every back, don't bother with refillable as it'll heal only 125HP compared to health potions that heal 150HP, even though refillable always refills each back. You only get 2 refillable potions compared to health potions where you can get a max of 5.
