ready for the horseman of nerfs to come riding by and slice aatrox's weird legs out from under him leaving his weird pizza torso floating momentarily before his host body succumbs to death and he's forced back into his sword and back up on the shelf for eons until one day at lcs a player decides to try him bottom in order to defeat the triple support meta?

first they need to fix the bug since it breaks aatrox the moment he buys item 3748 item 3078

W is bugged as well. 0 of his abilitys are triggering Arcane and it looks like they all regeister as AA's. [zombie-brand-mindblown]

funny thing, they could probably make this a feature and reduce the effects to make him seem pretty aweseome

his kit revolves around that greatsword, why not give it some benefits when he smashes heads XD

wait, Is that why i was taking 75% hp q-3s or is that just normal aatrox?

Bit of both.

Remember, his Q combo has an almost 500% total AD ratio (I think it's 480%?) if he lands all three sweet spots on you. That is, put simply, mind boggingly powerful.

Well 500% total AD ratio sounds like a lot.... but really compared with Auto attacking that is just 5 auto attacks and with the delay on his Q which prevents him from auto attacking which is damage he misses out on then it doesn't seem that amazing anymore (and if it is a champion with crit then 500% total AD can be as little as 2.5 auto attacks)

And it also have an internal cooldown of 1 second so the damage will be spread out over at least 2 seconds if not more (first cast --> 1 second for second cast ----> 1 second for third cast)

Here's the thing:

Aatrox can unload those very quickly (though it's unlikely to hit all of them while doing so).

It's AoE. Meaning that you can do that massive damage to multiple champions.

Last, and certainly not least, Aatrox is more than capable of weaving autos inbetween. This isn't like Wukong ulti, which has another insane total AD ratio (I think it's 680%?) but removes your ability to auto attack. Aatrox is perfectly capable of weaving a couple of autos between every Q, meaning that he can unload close to 1000% of his total AD into a target in a very short time with ease, and an AoE, while bringing respectable amounts of CC.

Also, what is this bull about 'prevents you from auto attacking'? Aatrox Q animation is one the faster side of ground-based AoE animations. It's not like Malz or Wu ulti, where they literally spend several seconds locked into a channel.

Its 3x the almost one second cast duration plus 2x a 1 second internal cooldown. It takes him almost 5 seconds to Q all three times as fast as he possibly can. Incomparison, attacking at 1 attack a second has a higher scaling but lower base damage over the same time frame, albeit without the AoE.

It's just like Garen's E. It sounds really powerful, then you compare it to just auto attacking a single target for the duration, and suddenly you realize how much of its power is in the AoE, and how useless it is against single targets in teamfights due to barely being better than auto attacking while being much less reliable and self CCing yourself.

This was at like level 4 and I dodged all of the other Q's. Which is why it was surprising. I was wondering if it was adding the passive proc.

It really only adds like, 200 damage to it. So if he's chunking you for 1K+ it's more his actual damage than the Trinity Proc. That being said, he is indeed bugged.

That’s an interesting bug. Makes the Hydra items good on him I think.

You call it a bug.

I call it Riot shenanigans.

where are people getting these awful graphs from? his winrate is 44% right now.

HIs overall winrate is 44%, because it counts his WR since day 1, when he had like 35% wr before getting massive hotfix buffed twice.

His daily winrate is fluctuating beetween 55 and 56% wr, which is his current post double hotfix WR.

U should always look at overall WR not daily WR. With daily you are just cherry picking to the extreme since its not reliable. One day he is 55% the next day he could be 30%. This is why you look at overall winrate because it AVERAGES out his daily winrate...

Ah. I remember now. Today Aatrox on my team used to proc item 3077 with his E. Looked extremely derp. He was sliding all over the place.

chipndip1Jul 4, 20181 votes

They didn't fix that yet?

They fixed it within the hour the hotfix went line.

So this winrate is just his "normal" win rate after the hotfix.

RocketRelmJul 4, 20181 votes

Honestly you can see the win rat climbing up almost 10% before that hotfix. He's a funky champion, people need to get used to him.

d0riyahJul 4, 20181 votes

I also see a ~44% winrate, but if he does have a 55%, he doesn't need buffs or nerfs, just bug fixing.

RexxieeJul 4, 20181 votes

OP spreading missinformation btw, the Q applying on hit bug was already hotfixed like within a hour of the hotfix going live, his current winrate has no relfect on it anymore.

LibroMastroJul 5, 20181 votes

And..where did you get those statistics?

big boi edriJul 5, 20181 votes

Honestly everyone looking at his overall win rate, you should zoom in to people with more than 10 games played on him. His win rate skyrockets once people have played enough to figure him out.
