State of Aatrox.... any news?

Aatrox, well i like him in the jungle, but i don't know... i think he is one of the coolest character in League, but he feels so bad to play.

I don't know how to put it differently, he just feels bad. Maybe it's the fact that he is based so, so much on autoattacks (maybe TOO MUCH), that it kinda gives this bad feeling when you use his spells.

Also his playstayle is so binary, to play Aatrox you have to:

  1. Dive into the opponents
  2. Hope that you massacre someone faster then he kills you.

I mean what kind of design is that, you literally have no other strategies with this champion, you can only go kamikaze and hope for the best. I know you have to play around your W and stuff, but that's about it.

His E is neat as a concept, but it's not even good at poking efficently in lane honestly. It does decent damage early but that's it. His ultimate it's only a big steroid, nothing more. Cool looking graphics but kinda plain design.

He is one of those champion that if gets 1-2 kills snowball hard as hell, but if you give 1-2 kills you will never be back in the game. That's the thing i hate the most about him

And if all of this wasn't enough he has absolutely no clear identity on his role?... Is he a fighter?, a tank?, a mix of both?

If you build mostly damage, in lategame you'll be useless because you'lldie in 1 second If you build mostly tanky, you are useless anyway because you do 0 damage If you do a mix of both it's even worse cause you can't kill anyone and you can't live long enough

I mean, it's a fking mess.

In my opinion, he should be building mostly full damage ( he has a big ass sword that drain blood jesus christ) and you should balance him around that. Of corse his kit should be a little revisited so that you can actually live when you engage someone.

All in all i demand justice for this badass demon satan king of hell Aatrox

He needs a new passive to give him direction, rather than just a janky "oooh i'm not dead!". He also needs a way to take less damage from monsters in jungle. THEY FUCK HIM UP.

well yeah, i agreee on the passive. I also think it takes to much time from the bloodwell to fill up your life once you're dead. The enemies have all the time in the world to kill you the sec you are alive
