One sad Aatrox main

Here I thought, the day of reckoning has come for Aatrox to fly into the meta somewhat. Nope, they just sat his ass back on the bench with the new rework. Sure his rework looks good on paper but let's be real guys, getting 5 stacks of bloodwell and trying to gank is really tough. Obtaining blood rush is a chore where as before you always had some attack speed to work off of. The only place he's really that viable at is in lane, and even then, he's so easy to burst down vs other laners. Only reason he's still partially usable is cause his pick rate is low enough to a point where you don't even have to learn how to fight him lmfao. Just my 2 cents on this rework.

It looked terrible on paper outside of the HP cost removal and at the start it really was terrible. They needed to hotfix him man.

A large amount of the complainers I see about this new Aatrox mostly come from jungle Aatrox players as the lane Aatrox's are starting to adjust. His passive isn't practical at all for the jungle because he can't carry it around and you can only reliably stack it on Scuttle for a mid-lane gank or expected countergank. His clears are still good enough if you leave Blood Price on the entire time, so he's...there. Many off-meta junglers that aren't supposed to be there get snuffed out this season, and it's been that way since last season too.

Why ever cut the ad ratio on he healing it was already only bonus ad. the thing is aatrox's w only does more healing above 50% with a tank build but aatrox isnt supposed to be a tank he is supposed to be a reletively squishy fighter but fighter as a class are basicly dead besides the juggarnaut sub class and any other fighter willing to build as a juggarnaut but their kit basicly not part of the equation. not to mention they cut already low damage on w and e.

He was too op. Having all the time access to your passive? OP! Gotta nerf that.

Now you don't have a passive at all against hard match ups because you won't get any opportuinity to stack it up on the lane.
