How to win lane as Qiyana against Azir · 59.4% win rate over 298 Emerald+ games · Updated 2026-07-27
| Stage | Favoured | Why |
|---|---|---|
| Level 1 | Qiyana | You crush his paper-thin level 1 with element-Q auto trades. |
| Level 2 | Qiyana | Level 2 Azir still has only soldiers and no way to punish your walk-up. |
| Level 3 | Qiyana | Level 3 gives you the full W-E-Q dive against a champ with zero self-peel. |
| Levels 4-5 | Qiyana | Through 4-5 his soldiers-on-cooldown windows leave him free to dive. |
| Level 6 | Qiyana | Your point-blank R into terrain beats his Emperor's Divide at 6. |
| First item | Qiyana | First-item Qiyana one-combos his squishy base stats before he scales. |
| Two+ items | Azir | Two-item Azir's kite, shuffle and wall outscale your single-target all-in. |
You dominate levels 1-2. Azir is one of the weakest early-game mids in the roster; his soldier auto-attacks are his only tool and his base stats are paper. Trade freely with element-Q autos and set up a slow push so you can threaten the first all-in the instant your kit fills out.
