Across the board Champion buffs--Aatrox

They gave him AD and Armor.

I disagree with this. Yes, he gets armor to compensate for the runes he always usually takes, AD to compensate for the AD runes he sometimes takes. However, no AS. If you take Precision, you get 18% AS, which is almost like taking 3 AS quints, however, if you don't you have a very sluggish early Aatrox with slow attack speed. You have basically tried to force every Aatrox player to go Precision.

If you want to go bruiser, its a hard early match because without the extra attack speed you could take from runes and still go bruiser, his attack is very slow and makes trading and farming much harder.

He's still good at what he was always good at. Laning. His issue isn't in his stats, its in his compatibility with teamfights in the mid/late game. His kit simply is dysfunctional in any team fight.

I would just play him as a tank. Grasp of the Undying+Overgrowth. with Precision as secondary.

Dorans Shield>Phage>boots>Botrk>Black Cleaver. In that order. Poke with Grasp+W everytime its up.

Spirit Visage, Deaths Dance, Randuins, Frozen Mallet, Steraks Gauge- situationally after completing Botrk+BC.

Imo, he deserves to be immune to Greivous wounds with his current kit.
