AATROX THE FAILED FIGHTER

I just played the Aatrox soft rework and found the problems Aatrox suffers from unchanged, and this made me start reminiscing on other fighters in lol such as Tryndamere, Jax, and Fiora who all manage to have successes in the top lane in at least solo/duo. Why do these auto fighters have success while Aatrox fails so badly, and why did his rework fail so badly? First off I do think the rework addressed a problem Aatrox needs to build tanky to be able to do anything useful, but his kit punished him for this at the same time. I hate to give a back handed compliment, but I also think this fix didn’t work very well because its addressing a problem in its own special spectrum of bad. Aatrox only needed to build tank because his kit failed to allow him to deal damage before he immediately died, with the soft rework he has received he still can’t do any damage it’s just it doesn’t punish him for building tanky.

So why can’t Aatrox kill anybody? First off his new passive only lets him start dealing real damage and lets him have the safety of a revive if he has poked some before a fight breaks out. If Aatrox preps a team fight perfectly he will enter a fight being able to only build up 80% of his “Blood Rush”, which if you have built damage you won’t be able to do because you will be dead and if you built tank you will do, but it won’t matter because you don’t do damage. So how can we obviously fudge his current kit to make him a little less sucky, well what comes to mid for me is Rengar’s ferocity and how it rapidly fills up in a fight, why can’t this happen for Aatrox like maybe when he ults especially since his “blood rush” is not all that impactful and more necessary to be impactful. Now lets also make that blood rush more impactful by giving him stats he needs to kill people or the ONE STAT HE NEEDS BUT HAS NONE OF and that is MOVEMENT SPEED. So no one misses this I am going to put some enfaces on this one MOVEMENT SPEED. Aatrox has a huge problem with jumping in on someone and immediately getting left behind since his Q has a highish CD and it can’t be lower or he will be too sticky.

Please if anything is done to Aatrox do these 2 things give him a movement speed boost somewhere in his kit, like maybe when he gets “blood rush” and make his “blood rush” easier to build up/ instantly build up when needed, or make a whole lot more impactful. I mean game breakingly so.

TL;DR: New Aatrox fixed no real problems and just created new worse ones, to fix this Riot needs to remove his rebirth converting it into a heal/shield that kicks in the second "blood rush" goes off and give him a movement speed boost while going toward the first person her attacks in "blood rush".
