Why is Aatrox feeding on the PBE?
Is there anyone else experiencing Aatrox players feeding on the PBE? Is the Aatrox rework really that bad? I don't play him much so I can't tell.

His name is Boris.
It's called new abilities and no one is playing him right, that's how things go on the PBE. Just give it a few days.
PBE is always a terrible place to look at balance. Meddler showed some interesting data a few weeks ago that basically showed PBE getting the trends wrong on several champs. PBE data would have told you that Mundo with his buffed ult was still weak, for instance, and then he was basically perma-banned on live because of how strong it ended up being.
People need time to adjust.

I've tried him on the pbe. His abilities are hard to get used to, especially the Q+E that you NEED to be able to do consistently if you want to get through laning phase in one piece. His abilities are clunky af(except his ult :P). He is also very punishing due to his long cooldowns and more focus on abilities combos. On the contrary, his abilities themselves deal tons of damage if combo'ed correctly.
Aatrox? I don't know who you are talking about. That guy is definitely not Aatrox.
New skin: Definitely Not Aatrox
If I had to guess based on how his new kit works I'd say it's strictly weaker than live Aatrox but PBE is a bad measure of balance.
So he's not much different from live afterall?
because he's a worse version of riven. Rivens go either 10/0 or 0/10
