Proposal for an Aatrox buff: Face it, the guy is garbage.
This dude has been left in the dust for way too long, I'm pretty tired of it.
For starters, give him more scaling health per level.
Also when he was first introduced on the PBE, his ult had a mechanic where the initial aoe damage on it would steal %health from everyone it hit and give him a certain amount of HP for each person he hit.
Everyone complained that it was too OP so they changed it to shitty flat magic damage. I think that we should put this mechanic back on him. It gives him way more survivability to his squishy nature, gives a nice AoE nuke to make up for his mediocre damage output, and as the icing on the cake it fits his character nicely too. (The blood, man.)
So the proposed change would be:
Base health lowered to 360 from 395 Health per level increased to 105 from 85
Massacre (R): Damage changed to 15/20/25 percent PHYSICAL DAMAGE of each targets max HP, and Aatrox is healed for 50/75/100 percent of the damage dealt
The reasoning for changing the ult's damage from magic to physical is that when this ult was on the PBE, everyone was crying that is was too OP since they had to build MR against a physical champion to reduce the hefty damage from his ultimate.
Also speaking of magic damage on physical champions, I'm looking at you Lee Sin you broken piece of shit.
