Riot you dun oof'd
after 10 years I am finally relinquishing League of Legends.

It is my pleasure to bring to your attention the sorry state of affairs in which lead champion design is faultering. Whoever hackjobbed Aatrox and brought him into the crude flesh and sword he is missed the mark and deserves termination (I don't say that lightly).
That department ruined the game for me. I won't go into length about how old Aa was so much fun but he was. He captured my imagination and I became Aatrox irl.
NOW??? what did you leave me with? I'm sorry but it is finally over and I'm done trying to make it work because I don't have the motivation brought by my favorite Avatar. Old Aatrox wasn't about swinging wild but more so poetry in motion.

Y'know also Reddit has a lovely section devoted to the Aatrox revert and it would just be so wonderful if you created a new champion with the same abilities and gave him the name of let's say BORIS. Assigning the newer (Current 1st borne 9.14~ Darkin) the whatever you want to call it and restoring him back to former glory is the only possibility of me slipping back into addiction.
A message for young men aged 18-25 (25+ and it's too late sorry). You can do better. You can become who you want to become but if you let this game sink its fangs into you then you will be like me and Phreak without hair. Also, likely you will neglect yourself in pursuit of a video game which is only financially beneficial to the top 1-3%. These individuals aren't playing the same game, they don't do it for pleasure but out of necessity. Once something you enjoy becomes a job it loses your interest gradually. (much like a girlfriend, arguably equivalent in idle pursuit) BUT IF YOU ARE LUCKY ENOUGH TO NAB ONE THEN BE A GENTLEMAN.
I considered playing TFT (loads of fun) until Riot got their shit together but lets be honest do they ever?
SHOUTOUT TO PENDRAGON_ (who if you didn't know is the big brain and made this game probably sipping a Mai Tai at a luxurious resort en Mexicana) Guinsoo and Icefrog. I have had so much fun with your fighters. Thank you all so very much for being a source of comfort for so long as I progressed as a young man but as Rengar says "COMFORT BREEDS WEAKNESS"
That is all.
EDIT: Also I can't quote new Aatrox irl because his dialogue is bordering psychosis and platitudinal. MEGA EDIT: DON'T QUOTE HIM IN PUBLIC YOU WILL HAVE THE COPS CALLED ON YOU.
