Give Aatrox old Sion's Ultimate

I am talking about

R Cannibalism For 20 seconds, Sion gains bonus lifesteal and 50% attack speed. Additionally, Sion's basic attacks will heal surrounding allies for a percentage of the damage dealt. BONUS LIFE STEAL: 50 / 75 / 100% HEAL TO NEARBY ALLIES: 25 / 37.5 / 50% AOE HEAL RADIUS: 200

I think it would fit him perfectly if you make him the life steal monster he was always intended to be.

My question is how would this be healthy?

Then people will complain "It's impossible to kill Aatrox now! You suck Riot!" Even though you can get item 3123 for 800G.

yes, yes. let's make aatrox even more feast or famine than he already is.

My only complaint is that this gives him bonus attack speed, something that perhaps he should be building for. Imo, I wish Aatrox built as if he were Tryndamere/Master Yi. None of this bruiser shit, just straight up building like a man and drain tanking.

Aatrox was created around the premise of having a weaker latter-half of a match to open up more power in his kit, especially 1v1s earlier on--giving him an Ult that increases his teamfight potential would either give him a broken amount of sustain or make him require compensational nerfs to other parts of his kit (wrecking his pre6 game).

Aatrox needs a total kit overhaul, with some serious power redistribution from his W to open up more potential in his kit in a hopefully healthier way--I was really shocked that Riot didn't take him into consideration when they began their Champion Update Blitz. He isn't the kind of champ who can be balanced and reintegrated back into the meta simply by changing his Ult. Like other sustain-based champions, his issues are a lot more deep-rooted.

Um, Grievous Wounds isn't going to be doing a whole lot when the enemy has 100% lifesteal on top of AD-scaling healing from W and whatever lifesteal he might have from items. Think about it; a 40% decrease means he's still got 60% lifesteal from Cannibalism alone (and you've probably locked yourself into a subpar build/summoner spell setup). Even at Rank 1 it's 30% with Grievous Wounds applied. That's still a nightmare to deal with.

Then there's the AoE heal, which is separate from the lifesteal and won't be decreased unless everyone on the enemy team has Grievous Wounds applied to them. And even then, it's still healing them for 30% of damage dealt (effectively 30% lifesteal).

No, Cannibalism with those numbers cannot be balanced on Aatrox. You'd probably want something along the lines of 20-40% lifesteal and 10-20% team heal for 10 seconds if you want the ability to be balanced.

I was gonna suggest giving cannon minions Aatrox's ultimate since they are supposed to be the strongest minion second to super minions.

This is actually not a terrible idea. I mean the numbers may be off, but I kind of like the team heal idea. It fits with his back story well.

20 seconds of 100% bonus lifesteal is a little bit broken you know. Have you seen the old Sion videos on YouTube where he pentakills enemy teams while sustaining under the fountain laser?

I don't think this is a good idea with those numbers. If you tone it down to say 50% bonus lifesteal and remove the healing allies part then it sounds a bit better.
