Lucian vs Azir

Confidence mediumUpdated Jun 10, 2026

Overview

Use early burst trades with support setup to punish Azir's weak pre-item DPS.
Deny Azir's scaling by forcing short trades before his soldier damage ramps.
Avoid extended fights where Azir's range and soldier zones force you back.

Trading pattern

Engage trades only after support setup or when (E) and (R) are down.
Use (Q) through minions to punish Azir standing behind soldiers or low-health CS.
Avoid using (E) forward without cooldown advantage to prevent being punished by Azir's zone control.

Danger windows

Respect (R) displacement, which can isolate you if you overcommit.
Avoid trading when Azir has soldiers positioned to zone or block your dash.
Be cautious if you use (E) aggressively without support or cooldown advantage; Azir can punish your vulnerability.

Early game

Contest level 2 aggressively with support to leverage your dash and passive burst.
Thin or crash waves before all-ins to minimize minion damage in trades.
Reset timing should align with first item spike to maintain pressure before Azir scales.

Power spikes

Level 2 unlocks your dash and passive burst, enabling strong early trades.
First completed marksman item boosts burst damage, forcing recalls or objectives.
Level 6 (R) lets you finish targets pushed out by Azir's positioning or misplays.

Win conditions

Convert early lane pressure into kills or forced recalls before Azir's item spikes.
Use (E) and support synergy to create burst windows and deny Azir farm.
Crash waves and roam or secure dragon priority to leverage mid-game tempo advantages.

Tip: For Lucian vs Azir, read overview, trading pattern, and danger windows first for a fast Mid lane check.
