Tips & Tricks
- Kha'Zix only needs to get Executioner in this line before you start sacrificing him to the Blackthorn hex. That is part of what makes this line unique: Because it plays around Azir carry with a non-Blackthorn tank, you can sacrifice an AP unit instead of tank unit.
- This means you can play this line even if you do not have early Kha'Zix copies. Most people do not reroll Kha'Zix unless they have him in Stage 2, so make sure to scout early to ensure you are uncontested.
- At 3 stars, sacrificing Kha'Zix provides Azir over 40% damage amp and 6 mana per second so focus on giving Azir Gunblade, AP items, and Attack Speed. Striker's is an acceptable damage amp item because it gives crit.
- Sacrificing Kha'Zix also means you don't technically need Rageblade. It's still a good item when paired with Rabadon's or Archangel, but because Azir has an additional 6 mana per second he will still cast often and his cast gives him 150% Attack Speed.
- This means ideally every Azir build has Gunblade + Rabadon's or Archangel, but the 3rd item is relatively flexible.
- Void Staff is ideal because it is a great Azir item before you can get 3 full proper items on him. If you have to build Ionic Spark instead, try to get into a place where it goes onto Sett instead of Vi (always aim to have 3 "real" tank items on Vi). It's better to play Void on Azir than Spark on Vi
- Since Zyra is the best holder of utility and secondary carry items, it's possible that it's better to play Zyra over Sett on level 7. Be flexible based on your items and frontline needs.

- Level to 4 if strong.
- Level to 5, unless on 3 loss streak.
- Level to 6, unless it places you below 30g.
- Stay level 6, unless you can stay above 50g on 7 or you are below 40 HP and can stay above 30g on 7.
- Level to 7, roll until board mostly upgraded. Never go below 10g even if missing tank or carry.
- Build up to 50g, slow roll to 50g until 5-1.
- If below ~25 HP, sometimes you must roll until you hit here. Not ideal.
- Roll until you hit 3-star carry and tank. Can go to 0g. Only greed gold if you are above ~60 HP.
- If you hit, you can level to 8. Otherwise stay 7. Holds true for every round for the rest of the game.

Should add solo plate as a condition
am i craazy it doesn’t say who to put executioner’s on???
I mean it’s definitely Zyra but if you don’t have Zyra on 7, it doesn’t really matter since the rest of your board is tanks who wouldn’t benefit from the crit or the bleed.
Thoughts on Stattik shiv for azir, seems like it should be on the same level as lich bane.
Had lucky veigar 3 on stage 2, tempoed into this comp variation (rek’sai&sett->karma&veigar). Worked rly well as veigar rly likes blackthorn hex sacrifice
Skill diff ↓
this is not s+ tier with flickerblades and executioner emblem, pathetic
WAH WAH WAH
