watching xj9 crush meteos in jungle and go 18-1 as reksi seems so unreal, im used to watch meteos dumpster usual soloQ pleb even known junglers like nb3 get crushed most of the time meanwhile whenever i watch him face xj9 he gets crushed, wonder how good he would do in competitive setting
Didn't Xj9 mentor Meteos at one point?

There are videos on youtube showing how it works. I mentioned Caitlyn because I remember a "tutorial" showing her casting her net then buffering an auto after Taric cast his stun at her. The stun hits her during the net animation and she autos once right after (then she's stunned).
About what happened to me, I said he auto'd 2+ times during the fear, and he auto'd more than that. I cast it while he was getting in range/pouncing on me, so with the jump being an auto, taking that damage is normal, same with the following one (his aa animation is basically non-existent when chaining a jump with a Q or empQ) because of the cast time (and Terrify's range is lower than his passive/ult pounce range). The two other autos he did after the fear, with the indicator on his head and my ability on cd, though, are not.

Just curious: Why is Azir borderline OP in competitive, but does horribly in the solo queue environment?
I mean, what skillset is required to play him to his fullest? He doesn't seem THAT mechanically demanding, outside of the "Shurima Shuffle".
I don't own him, but am looking to pick up a mid laner for when I'm forced to play mid, and the whole concept intrigues me but I'm confused by the HUGE disparity between solo queue success and professional success...

With a lot of poke based champions and team comps, they're incredibly team reliant. Azir's biggest strength is obviously his zone control. If he can keep the enemy at arm's length, 2-4 soldiers are going to do a lot of work.
Problem with solo q is that communication is nearly non-existant. Azir's team isn't going to peel for him optimally and if the enemy hard engages with CC, he's toast. Most Azir can manage themselves with his dash, wall and pseudo-turret to fall back on. But if he gets stun locked and there's no peel, he's as good as dead.
Solo q rewards aggression far more than defensive play. It's also why assassins Mid are so prevalent.
Edit: if you want a solo q mid, pick something that can win lane, then hard carry late game. See sentence above.

Azir has some problems:
1. Hard to play
2. Mana dependent if you do the 'pro' build with Nashor's, especially when solo queue is pokey.
3. Team dependent
4. Hard to play
5. Did I mention hard to play?
If you want a mid laner, I think the current best choices are TF, Lux, and Veigar. If you want something assassin-y, try Ahri or Talon. For something more niche, Swain, Yasuo, and Chogath.

The game got heavily influenced by crits. Multiple kills and who gets the baron and some other stuff came down to RNG.

We're still using the PBE thread for this stuff, right? I think this is in the wrong place.

Yes, it is.

Syndra is always a good mid lane choice if you want to put in a little time learn her 
Apart from that, Ahri is probably the best choice. She does everything well, is simple to play and Riot/playing public loves her so she will always be relevant power-wise.

If you wanna play mid viktor/lulu/karthus(don't blind pick kart though) are the easiest to play and easy to be useful with.
Azir isn't really all that hard to play tbh. It is just most people in soloq aren't fans of using their brains.
Veigar is usualy banned, tf is decent but can be difficult to not feed on him in some matchups, ahri is just solid and lux is ok.
