Aatrox needs help Rito. Will donate blood for buffs

My little demon hasn't been viable for about 2 years now. I mean he just isn't as viable as other champions, especially top. When Aatrox was released on pbe I was so happy to have this champion but now he's just "meh." I just want him to get some attention from you Riot. Couldn't Aatrox have reduced hp costs and have it fill his blood well a flat amount? Maybe reduced hp costs and a passive on his ult that fills up his bloodwell by 2% per auto? Make his Q not stopped by everything in the game, or reduce the cd when its interrupted? It'd be awesome to see something like where his attack speed can't be lowered while ulting. Give him something for that nerf on his passive. Nobody cares about a 5% bonus attack speed if it means they lose 20% early on, its what Aatrox needs most and it was taken away. Could I please have a Red tell me where Aatrox is in line to getting any sort of buff?

Just build all lifesteal items and you become an immortal god.

had to stop playing him since he gets outperformed easily

They should increase the timer for his passive decay to 10-12 seconds from 5 seconds

As well as making it so his Q's travel time is reduced if Aatrox casts it closer to himself

The not being able to slow down his attack speed during ult is a good idea

I mean, Aatrox is really, really squishy for his job.. Dive in and reap hell basically. Yet if you get cc'd at all you're pretty much screwed. I want them to just make a mechanic that allows Aatrox to dodge cc if he Q's above it, but I doubt that'll be added in haha

I love Aatrox but ya he needs a little something. Everything he does has like 3 or 4 other champs that do it quite a bit better and for less effort and counterplay. He's kinda like Zac before his recent buffs. Really tanky but there were others who were just as tanky and provided alot more for the team in terms of Teamfight potential. Maybe make him a bit more tanky but reduce his damage output.

Has anyone else also noticed that morellonomicon puts grievous wounds on Aatrox's passive? I've been getting grievous on my passive a lot lately because every AP mid always builds a morello.

I still want my AOE fear on his ult
