Got to love Hotfix overshot on aatrox
I will say that aatrox did need a few buffs. But they could have waited a patch at least though once people started to get use to the new Aatrox kit. He has a substantially different playstyle and trolling first timer pickers get punished for doing so in ranked; should not be an insta-pick-up easy champ with high reward.
That being said, I like the base HP boost, the increased dash range and the better range on first Q.
I am okay with the auto reset e provides, the lower CD on his ultimate early, the increased range on 2nd Q and okay with the Q dmg increase though I think made kit a little too strong.
I AM NOT OKAY with the damage vamp (life on damage done) his E provides now. 20% lvl 1?!? 25% max rank? what a joke. dude has way too much sustain now. The fact there is no drawback for vamp on minions makes him WAY too abusive especially in melee matchups. This needs to be lowered especially if they do not nerf other parts of kit they just buffed. Like only 50% effectiveness on minions or revert back to 15-20%. I also think his passive is a little too strong now especially with auto reset his dash provides now. No reason to ever pick jarvan or riven or even kayn now if aatrox is available with a few practice games.
Also on a sidenote, I think the "hold shift for more info" they did is a cool idea for future implementations but so stupid for this Aatrox scenario. Like it should be an option if provides like an extra paragraph of info or extra info that isn't necessary. But holding shift literally gives you values you want and adds maybe a few extra words at most. As an example, his E states its a dash and provides vamp passive and bonus AD. hold shift and it gives values of vamp passive and bonus AD; it only adds numbers we want to see without holding a button. No potentially "distracting filler". Makes no sense to me.
