Aatrox Buffs (HOPING TO GET RIOT ATTENTION)
I can say Aatrox is a champion that I love! His kit, his lore, and play style but I feel that he needs maybe a bit more. I am hoping Riot will see this and maybe give something to this guy. I mean his lore is him turing the tide of a war! I'd love to see that being more possible in LOL.
Note:These are ideas and I dont expect all of them to be added but maybe one of them. If you can maybe comment on why Riot cant make these changes or if your Riot comment on what your opinion is on the current Aatrox. None of the ideas should be mixed together though.
IDEA 1:His Q could knock up even in the outer circle but for a shorter duration (or a stun in the outer circle so tenacity can work) Have it stun or knock up for .75 sec and maybe his inner circle knocks up for 1.25 sec.
REASONING: I feel that he has really unreliable cc and for the low range,high health cost, and low damage should allow him to have a bit more cc.
IDEA 2: His W (Blood Price) or his Q can do either do max %hp, missing %hp, or current % HP. Either one will work. If its the Q then it should be a bit high on % like maybe 10%HP on max lvl, or if its on his W make it low percentage due to it can be used more (like 4% or 6%). Also if this change was on his W give it more cost on blood price.
REASONING: This will make his Q have more dmg and maybe it could apply if they are knocked up and not applied if they are not. On his W this will promote using blood price because you will mostly see players only stay in Blood Thirst and never use his W. Making the cost higher will also make it not worth it to use when ur below the 30% hp and rewarding players who use his W properly. Also he is not the best when it comes to dueling (
are a bit better when it comes to that).
IDEA 3: AOE fear on his ult. maybe have Aatrox fear for about .5 or .75 secs just to interrupt the front or back lines where ever his Dark Flight takes him.
REASONING: His ult feels "stale" and it would actually "change the tide of war" like his lore says. This buff might not do as much in a 1v1 but in a teamfight 5v5 it will be a nice interrupter and might just be enough to be a good team fighter!
IDEA 4: The final idea! A buff to his ult! Not just any buff though. I was thinking if his ult could boost the attack speed, ad, ap, or something to give to his teammates. WHILE he is alive in his ult form.
REASONING: His ult feels "stale" (again) and it would be nice to where his ult can really help his teammates out. It also just has a feeling that just belong to Aatrox more than my other ideas. This makes him "change the tide of war" like his lore even says! Also it will boast his teammates with blood lust like he did with the soldiers in his lore!
