[Set 9] Azir Shurima

Shurima Azir is a very strong composition in the current meta. It's important to understand that Shurima provides a lot of sustain, making items like Guinsoo's Rageblade, Warmog's Armor, and Redemption incredibly effective. The goal is to have a massive frontline to give Azir enough time to scale.

• Shurima's Legacy - Once assembled, your Sun Disc attacks enemies for 180-900 Magic Damage every 2 seconds (based on current Stage). Gain 3 Shurimans.
• Shurima Crest - Gain a Shurima Emblem and a Taliyah.
• Martyr - Whenever one of your units dies, all allies heal for 12% of Maximum health
• Gifts from the Fallen - Your units gain 5% Attack Damage, 5 Ability Power, 5 Armor, and 5 Magic Resist. When one of your units dies, all your units gain these stats again.

Early game doesn't matter much since it's a late game composition, but it's still important to have Renekton and Cassiopeia before considering playing Shurima. Renekton will carry the items until Nasus, and Cassiopeia will carry the items for Azir.

There are several mid-game stages, but often we don't want to roll down at level 7 and instead aim for a fast level 8. That's why it's challenging to force the composition, but having Renekton 2 early in the game and good items can help. The composition consists of many 4-cost and 5-cost units, so to increase our odds, it's preferable to reach a fast level 8 situation.

• Warmogs is a priority so that Renekton can carry early game.
• Guinsoo's Rageblade for increased DPS thanks to Shurima scaling.
• Redemption also provides additional sustain as long as we have Guinsoo's, as it requires a minimum amount of damage.

1. Starting with Renekton and Cassiopeia is crucial.
2. Prioritize building Warmog's Armor and Guinsoo's Rageblade, as both items are highly important.
3. Having these two conditions fulfilled is imperative for a successful game.
4. Renekton will serve as the frontline holder until Nasus, while Cassiopeia will be the carry until Azir.
5. It's important to focus on economy and aim to reach level 8 quickly.
6. It's challenging to play the Shurima composition effectively while staying at level 7 because the composition heavily relies on late-game units.
7. Once at level 8, roll for our 2-star units to strengthen the team.
