How to Play This Matchup
Early Aggression
Irelia needs to punish Azir before they scale. Zone them off CS levels 1-5 and look for solo kills before first back. If Azir reaches 2 items even, you're in trouble.
Mixed Resistances
Irelia deals AD damage while Azir deals AP. Build resistances accordingly, don't stack the wrong type.
Range Advantage
Azir has range advantage. Irelia should look for short trades when Azir uses abilities on the wave. Freeze near your tower and wait for jungle help or an all-in window.
Exploit Irelia's Weakness
Irelia's main weakness: Hard CC, not hitting E, falling behind. Play around this to maximize your advantage.
Irelia Win Condition
Stack passive on minions, all-in with 4 stacks
Azir Win Condition
Soldier DPS, Shurima Shuffle engage, scale
