Another Topic about Aatrox!

Sh3nd··1 votes·769 views

Okay so we all can agree that Aatrox is weaker and gets destroyed by most meta champions... Everyone wants buffs or a rework blah blah, we could agree but then we have a Aatrox going around 1 shotting everyone. But i dont think just letting him be and not doing anything for years is helping. I mean I'm sure plenty of people love the champion(me including). Maybe if he lands his e his q is reduced by (x) seconds. And his ult, ah fun! His ult scales off AP, and the only one... hes full ad champion. Could it be op if it scaled off ad? yeah but just dont scale it a crazy amount but no ones building AP so his ult can do a little more damage. He just needs more utility more outplay potential, after you q your screwed if you dont have flash, especially if its a ranged champion such as quinn.

Again I'm not demanding anything, I'm suggesting a positive change, even if it doesn't come it should eventually and we should know if its happening. Let me know what you guys think. Have fun and good luck on the rift Aatrox

He has a free GA and a ton of attack speed steroids. That said, his CC has such a high CD and isn't "good" enough for him to function like a tank late game like Maokai/Nautilus/etc..., and there are so many champions in the game that are better than him at his own niche.

If he builds on-hit because of his great attack speed steroids, he is essentially a bad Xin Zhao or Yi/Kayle with a knock up. If he builds crit, he is just a shitty Tryndamere, Xin Zhao. If he builds tank, do I really need to go through the list of tanks in the game that do the job better than him?

His kit will always be weak because he has a free GA. They need to tweak that in some way in order for him to be effective, because that is whats holding him back.

His Q is horrid. even a bronze 5 on drugs can dodge that shit. i've been playing him a ton recently for no particular reason other than i saw boxerpete do an unranked to masters by onetricking Aatrox so i bought him and started playing him. His Q is just legit useless and without stacked bloodwell you cant fight no one. Also he gets bursted before he even gets to his 3rd hit and even with the anti burst build both me and boxer run you still die like a piece of shit unless you dodge everything the enemy throws at you. + he is easy as fuck to kite. doesnt matter how much you buff him unless you rework his shit completely he will be useless. ( well he will be good in bronze-gold but even move speed soraka can win in that garbage elo )

Thanks for your opinions, we can all agree that he does need some change. @riot we gotta do something, if basically every single person agrees that he need some sort of change in this meta, then it should happen. Please update us the status :) RekSai
