is under rated, and many will say that with the change to
W, he is now just the poor man's version. Truth be told, they both fit a very similar play style.
disadvantage is using health to activate his abilities, but that is one of the only downsides. You have a passive that brings you back to life with a % of your health, a long reaching slow, a gap closer (or escape) with knockup, the option to auto-heal, or sacrifice health for increased damage (almost no one uses it for that, but it can be very useful) and his ult just cranks up the attack speed some more. Another plus of Aatrox? You won't see him get banned the way Xin does. So, if you like the Xin playstyle, Aatrox could be a fun champ for you.
