I love how Riot is so cautious with Aatrox...meanwhile Warwick exists

Healing and engaging better and faster than Aatrox ever could, and being able to chase down enemies.

I can't even chase down a Malphite, who just kits himself.

GOOD job Rickles. You are right, Aatrox needs a "window power", an idea you pulled straight out of your ass in a pathetic attempt to try to be creative with Aatrox.

Haha how utterly pathetic. You made a video just for me and tried to use the rank on this account that I don't use for serious play as an insult?

Haha, thank you for making realize how pathetic some people are.

I mean they ahven't been shy about saying that his problems revolve around the passive revive... which if I recall (and I could be wrong), that Warwick does not have.

That too, but they don't like old Aatrox feast or famine snowball healing game play. Meanwhile even with the old Aatrox I watch in amazement as a same level near equal build WW outtrades me 1v1 as Aatrox. But hey its okay for WW to do that. Just not for Aatrox. And meanwhile WW is doing all sorts of mixed damage, not just AD like Aatrox.

Warwick is gated by mana, had his hallmark CC turned into a skillshot, and has very conditional moments where he can shine. Not saying Aatrox is better, but there ARE trade-offs for what Warwick has gained from this update. Not to mention, that revive passive saps the shit out of Aatrox's power budget. I honestly wish they would just remove it and compensate him appropriately.

The new Warwick is more fun but honestly the old Warwick was stronger.

On what grounds? He was never this level of menace.

you couldn't 1v1 the old ww this one I get beat all the time 1v1. The old Warwick was a late game monster who did incredible damage and was so hard to kill. This one falls off after mid game. The new one can do more damage before six but not as much after six. Last and of course most importantly the old one never missed an ult this one does

I'd disagree. Old WW was only as good as his ult. If it was on CD, I felt like he was useless.

In the current form, there's certainly an opportunity to beat him. But assuming you're half competent - and by that I mean you make living more important than anything else - WW can easily get fed. I mean, I feel like he's tower diving with free kills at level 3 though I'm honestly not checking the data on that claim.

I used to love Aatrox. Now Aatrox is trash (for god's sake "aa" is part of his name and he has a hard time with his auto atks), yet almost any game (esp. games with cc) he is fodder. Jump in and take all the damg and die b4 his passive even triggers. I never thought RITO could ruin Aatrox even more, yet they proved me wrong. He can't tank well, duelist are not good atm, he doesn't heal much now, and his passive is troll. Never a good time to even calculate when u can go in with it. Good job rito, ya'll wasted time on another fail [zombie-brand-clap]
