Azir vs Cassiopeia

Confidence mediumUpdated Jun 10, 2026

Overview

Use soldier zones to poke safely and farm toward your first DPS item.
Maintain medium lane pressure to prevent Cassiopeia from freely applying poison.
Avoid extended trades before your soldiers and (R) are ready to control space.

Trading pattern

Place soldiers with (W) and reposition them with (Q) for poke, avoiding trades when Cassiopeia's poison or (W) is active.
Respect (W) cooldown as it grounds your (E) and punishes aggressive dashes.
Save (R) to disengage or punish all-ins, especially when Cassiopeia commits facing you for a stun.

Danger windows

Avoid aggressive (E) usage when (W) is available to prevent being grounded.
Respect (R) window; do not face her during trades or all-ins to avoid stuns.
Play cautiously if your (R) is down since you lose a key disengage and counterplay tool.

Early game

Hold a stable wave to secure CS without overextending against Cassiopeia's poke.
Avoid using (E) aggressively early to prevent getting grounded by (W) or stunned by (R).
Use (Q) and (W) to poke only when Cassiopeia is not poisoned to avoid extended (E) trades.

Power spikes

Level 6 (R) improves your safety and teamfight presence; use it for picks or defensive resets.
First completed mage DPS item powers up soldier damage and poke threat; pressure waves more confidently.
Respect Cassiopeia's level 6 (R) as it makes direct commits much riskier.

Win conditions

Outscale Cassiopeia by safely farming and using soldier DPS to control objective fights.
Use (R) to isolate or stop Cassiopeia's commits and punish overextensions.
Deny Cassiopeia extended trades by avoiding poison application and maintaining soldier poke zones.

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