How to win lane as Zoe against Azir · 55.06% win rate over 425 Emerald+ games · Updated 2026-07-27
| Stage | Favoured | Why |
|---|---|---|
| Level 1 | Zoe | Level 1 is yours: Azir has one of the worst level-1 patterns and cannot contest your E poke. |
| Level 2 | Zoe | Level 2 is yours: your E-into-Q combo outdamages his flimsy single-soldier trades. |
| Level 3 | Zoe | Level 3 is yours: with two soldiers he still can't out-poke your bubble range while managing mana. |
| Levels 4-5 | Zoe | Levels 4-5 are yours: you zone his last-hits and stack a CS and health lead. |
| Level 6 | Zoe | Level 6 is yours: you out-range his all-in until his items catch up, and Portal dodges his knockup. |
| First item | Azir | First item is Azir's: his soldier waveclear and range start letting him farm safely out of your bubble. |
| Two+ items | Azir | 2+ items are Azir's: his wall-slam ult and sustained DPS make him a teamfight monster you can't facecheck. |
Level 1-2 belong to you: Azir is one of the weakest early laners in the game, and your E poke plus Q burst punish every step he takes to soldier-last-hit.
