With 3.3% popularity, Vex constantly encounters meta-dominant Azir (4.5%, 17th place out of 57 Mid champions). Understanding how to play against this popular champion becomes essential for consistent Vex performance in the current patch. Meta strength confirmed: Vex's superior tier rating (A+ vs C) translates into a solid 52.1% matchup win rate. This performance explains why Vex ranks 14th in win rate among Mid champions. Optimize for consistency: Arcane Comet paired with Manaflow Band (71.9% win rate, 3.6% popularity) provides the stats you need, while the item sequence Luden's Companion > Shadowflame > Stormsurge with Sorcerer's Shoes delivers 59.1% win rate against Azir.
Win through macro: Vex takes the matchup (52.11%) despite falling behind in CS (6.98 vs 7.04/min). Your victories come through roaming, team fighting, and map pressure rather than 1v1 lane dominance. Complete superiority: Vex dominates both win rate (52.1%) and damage output (824 vs 774/min, 2nd among Mid). The 50 damage/min difference creates massive snowball potential. Statistical dominance: Vex leads in both matchup win rate (52.1%) and KDA (2.40 vs 2.00) - complete superiority across all metrics.
The Vex versus Azir matchup in the mid lane is favorable with proper positioning. Use your statistical advantage and prevent the opponent from realizing their potential.
The magic damage that Vex deals remains relevant in the late game. Look for opportunities to initiate or counter-initiate. Meanwhile, Azir deals primarily magic damage (92.81%), additional magic resistance may be required.
Consider the farming superiority demonstrated by Azir, ranking 13th (versus 16th for Vex) in farming efficiency among champions in this role. This means the opponent can build gold advantages more quickly. Meanwhile, their lower KDA (2.0 versus 2.4) suggests they are less effective in team fights.
Despite the statistical advantage in the matchup, overconfidence can be the main mistake. It is important for the Vex player to maintain constant pressure on Azir, not allowing the opponent to safely scale up, and actively use the advantage gained to help their team.
