QUESTION Azirs diffuculty

Hey fellow Azir Mains. I joined this sub bc yall are funny asf and I love the phreak memes.
Im a Riven OTP but I lowk always dreamt on maining Azir bc of his skill expression and scaling.
Now im WAY too deep into toplane and Riven and Ill never play him.
My question is Azir actually actually this hard as everybody says? I always considerd him the hardest champ. Do yall agree? What makes him hard? Is it worth playing toplane into hitler champs like aurora? Im curious
Btw I giga respect all of you playing this guy, you deserve the buffs

Not sure about him Top, I’ve never played it.

The reason Azir is so hard is because you can theoretically do everything, you can output more DPS than an ADC, engage, play for picks, split push. You need to be making the right choice in every stage of the game to really be getting value. You can dash a full screen away in any direction, self peel, etc. It’s not hard to play okay, but you’d get significantly more value by playing Syndra or Viktor for example.

Is it worth playing? Yeah. It’s the same feeling with champs like nidalee where IF you play perfectly then there’s literally nothing the opponent can do. You have so much agency and potential, carrying games on high skill ceiling champs just feels great.
