When the boss yells "Burn in the master's fire", one person gets a debuff for a few seconds that hurts them and those around them, so that person should move away from others.

I believe the debuff is called Curtain of Flame and looks like a green fire.

Azzakel has a few nasty abilities to watch out for. He will use Fel Lash on the tank, temporarily increasing their damage taken. Stay spread out so Curtain of Flame dosent hurt your buddies.
Half way through the fight he will fly up, become invincible and throw minions at you for a time. The felguards are basic melee hitters, the blazing trickesters (tiny red imps) run around and stun you with Conflagrate, and the Crackling Pyromaniacs (big purple imps) channel huge Felblasts at the ranged/healer. Melee on pyros (make sure to interrupt) and ranged on tricksters usually works.
When this phase ends, Azzakel will crash down and make a Fel pool (big green fire pool), stay away from it.

The demon Azzakel uses the same model as Baleroc, which is a elemental.
Was Ragnaros working with the Burning Legion?

Ironically named after the god/demon Azazel.

(Blue-eyed blond hair dude.... to green faceless bat-wing thing? wat.)

On Mythic:
His adds that cast Fel blast hurt a lot after 1 hit leaving only about 2k health on a dps or healer, so the key is really interrupt every single one of those casts.
We managed to do it by just splitting dps - each dps had its own add to take care of. Druid Typhoon works as interrupt on these guys.
Also there seem to be lot more of the little imps that stuns you make sure you clear one wave of adds before the boss summons next one - otherwise can get stunned to buggery (unless your dps is uber dooper and you kill him with only 1 set of adds or no adds)

This guy looks AMAZING, his colors and armor is just epic. I know he uses the same model as others but this coloring/skin is incredible, what a great job the art team did on him.
