Aatrox, No more excuses.

I've seen poor indie developers, probably 50 bucks in their bank make their own engines and full gamescapes in 6 months to two years.

Changing and fixing Aatrox is as simple as changing a few numbers and testing it, it take an hour tops from an amatuer to adept coder.

League is already created, they don't need to make any new shit, so what are these "it would take years" excuses, it's just flat out lies.

Changing a champs numbers is the same as changing the numbers in skyrim mod editor, you go in and change the numbers and save, that simple.

I've written many different types of posts about how to change this guy, all in ways that would work.

No more excuses, just fix him now, preferably this week, you are a multi-BILLION dollar company, you should be able to Revamp/Fix all old champions in the space of a month at the same time, EASY.

Rito pls see and hire this man kthxsbai.

You're right, rito had been dragging on the aatrox problem for way too long now. Not even sure who though Aattox's kit would even be healthy.

...yeah, no. Changing him is that easy, actually fixing him is going to need more of a kit overhaul than that.

Unfortunately, Aatrox is a champion that either dominates or gets dominated. Riot has declared his kit "unhealthy", which is why he hasn't received any changes to my understanding.

It'll be after Ryzes next rework.

Here's the excuse:

Aatrox needs a rework like a bunch of other champions, but he's not at the top of the list atm.

Happy?

If you just change his numbers, he's still just either useless or pick/ban due to his strengths. He needs a total rework. Face it.

Rework that takes him away from hyper sustaining the lane, or leave him to rot.

While you are right, they could just change numbers and prolly get away with it, but do you really want that? Imo the problem lays in his mechanics. There are many problems with his abilities kit and id appreciate much more to see changes in that direction. Few things that strikes as main problems:

his Q very often ends up as a stun of a sort of Aatrox himself. He is vulnerable and unable to move for its duration, which is quite long . At the start of the animation he literally stands at one position for a whole second. The landing radius is pretty small and you rly need to hit the target to get this short stun triggered. He is practically jumping in low air and can be interrupted by things like Azir ultimate, which is ridiculous considering he can jump over walls. -his E can be very hard to aim skill shot, thanks to the combination of slow missile speed and decreasing area. Overall his burst abilities scale of AP and deal magic damage. His main weapon is his AA making him bound to stick in melee range and this is quite hard task these days. He is also supposed to be constantly in combat to fill his blood bar. The current itemization isnt favoring him at all. BOTRK is nerfed to the ground and there are literally no AS items that suite him and wont give useless stats for him like Crit, AP, Mana etc... Im not saying everything should be improved, but the combination of so many flaws makes for a terrible outcome. You can hardly pick another champ and list a bunch of flaws over his skills. There are many champs with overloaded skills like Ekko, which you would list a plethora of good features, like endless source of slows, cc, mobility, stats scaling, emergency tools and whatnot. EDIT: oh and forgot to mention its disappointing to see nothing is changed for so long while at the same time there is several champions which are constantly on the update table
