Give Aatrox a special item like has it makes sense lore wise as well coz his sword has special abilities and is quite unique buying upgrades for it give him scaling ad and empowered abilities. This would make him more unique coz i don't think there are many champions like that. I know not every chance i have previously mentioned can be but to use but at least i am trying to come up with ideas that could help him and make him more unique. And if you say he doesn't need this or that or that the GA passive is op rather than just saying that give an explanation on your opinion other wise don't even bother to replay if all you are going to say he doesn't need buff ect.

i dont like that AA-trox rips off master yi's ultimate please replace it i was so disappointed when i saw his stupid ultimate deals damage to surround enemies and buff his attack speed seriously on such a cool visual concept thats the best ultimate they could come up with i am sure they can give him way more interesting ultimate than it is right now for instance his basic attack release energy or blood waves that deals extra damage up to lets say 400 or 600 range or i dunno something better even cause visually looks great but his kits not so interesting (at least his ulti)

I'm an Aatrox main, and I honestly don't like this idea. I mean it would be cool and all, but I hate champions who have their own items that get upgraded through the game like Viktor. Just a personal preference.

That is actually a fantastic idea... Like "The blood-ridden Sword" Or something like that... It could use a custom currency like Gangplank's ult upgrade...

Not going to lie, that's a pretty good rework idea that I could get behind.

I think it's a cool idea but personally but I would much rather see his different abilities react with what mode is W is in. I agree that his play style should center around his sword though. About itemization, I was messing around with Guinsoo's rageblade and discovered it is an incredible and underrated item on Aatrox. Some of his skills actually increase with AP, it's just a thought but if they made his W increase by AP and put more ap/ad items in game it may give hime the boost needed.

I have a better idea, don't let aatrox take damage mid flight in his Q.

item 3124 Guinsoo's Rageblade. If this item seems to be one of the few least-used items.

Instead, Aatrox could use it personally:

Rename Guinsoo's Rageblade to Darkin Blade and change the icon. Aatrox begins the match with it (like Viktor and Kalista).

Every else changes around this, kept within his thematic design and retaining the steroid-swinging sword-slashing gameplay.

I thought this may work but I don't know if other champions make use of Guinsoo's Rageblade effectively and consistently. Evelynn comes to mind...
