Veigar vs Azir

Updated Jun 1, 2026

Overview

Veigar is a scaling burst mage who must survive early pressure to reach his stack and item thresholds.
Avoid giving Azir a calm lane to freely place soldiers and scale his DPS and zone control.

Trading pattern

Use E to punish Azir when he steps forward to last-hit near soldiers.
Avoid trading when Azir's R is available as it can disrupt your engage and burst.
Prioritize short trades when Azir's E is on cooldown or he mispositions his soldiers.

Danger windows

You are vulnerable when E is on cooldown and Azir can safely engage with soldiers.
Azir's R creates a displacement zone that can interrupt your burst and force you back.
Avoid overextending when Azir's E is available for repositioning or escape.

Early game

Focus on quietly farming Q stacks near safety and avoid extended trades before level 6.
Respect Azir's soldier poke and avoid pushing wave too far to prevent being all-in when your E is down.

Power spikes

Your major power spike is level 6 with R for execute-style burst.
Azir's major power spikes are level 6 with R and his first completed mage DPS item.
Your threat grows with Q stacks and first mage item completion; deny Azir's calm scaling to delay his spikes.

Win conditions

Survive early lane pressure and farm Q stacks safely near your turret.
Use E to trap Azir when he mispositions or commits with E.
Burst Azir decisively after level 6 when he is low and trapped, denying him the chance to scale freely.

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