LeBlanc vs Azir

Updated May 31, 2026

Overview

LeBlanc is a mobile assassin with medium lane pressure who must disrupt Azir's calm scaling and soldier setup.
Focus on denying Azir safe farm and punishing his low early agency before he sets up soldiers and uses Azir E or Azir R defensively.

Trading pattern

Engage with W for burst and repositioning, then threaten E root if Azir mispositions or lacks Azir R.
Respect Azir's soldier zones and Azir R displacement; avoid committing if Azir has Azir R ready.
Capitalize on Azir's cooldowns by forcing trades when Azir E or Azir R are down.

Danger windows

Azir is dangerous when soldiers control space and Azir R is up to disengage or isolate.
Avoid all-ins when Azir has Azir R and Azir E available as escape tools.
Be cautious if you miss W engage since LeBlanc can be punished hard due to low waveclear and return pad control.

Early game

Use level 2 burst with Q plus W or E to pressure Azir before he can safely place soldiers.
Avoid extended fights before Azir has soldiers deployed and his defensive cooldowns are available.
Punish Azir's use of Azir E aggressively since it removes his main escape and makes him vulnerable.

Power spikes

LeBlanc's major spikes: level 2 burst combo, level 6 R, and first completed AP burst item.
Azir's major spikes: level 6 Azir R and first completed mage DPS item.
Respect Azir's power spikes by playing cautiously when Azir R is available and soldiers are well positioned.

Win conditions

Win by forcing Azir off his preferred calm farming state through early level 2-5 burst trades.
Deny Azir space to place soldiers and punish his Azir E usage.
Use LeBlanc's mobility and burst to snowball lane pressure and prevent Azir from scaling safely.
