Aatrox needs a Ratio change to help bring him back in the game

Aatrox, My main champion who is really underrated and considered weak to people,I disagree on their reasons, but some of there points are correct. Aatrox is weaker compared to other champions, not because of his kit, not his squishyness, and not just himself. It's the ratio he has that makes his scaling weaker than most champs late game, It's bonus AD that's in all of his spells. Meaning he is forced to get damage or became a sponge late game that does no damage and is basically useless if avoided. If he gets kills, he's decent, but that's IF he gets kills. His kit is really amazing, He can soak damage if built right and sustain fights, even bait out his passive and turn the tide when he revives, And that flash Q is amazing. It's instant and unstoppable if not quick to react, getting couple kills or an objective. But to do that he will have to group, Aatrox is way better splitting than grouping, why? Because his kit is meant for splitting, Team fights are optional, but to do that he will need to get tanky, otherwise the moment you engage is the moment you need to get out. OF course building tank is the right option for you to choose, but the scaling puts him behind as he builds tanky, Usually 1-2 AD items helps, But late game his damage will fall. Compare him to other champs such as Vi, Jax, and Irelia, They only need one damage item and they are set for the rest of the game. They all have there kit to have damage and tankyness while there ratios are strong enough on it's own. Aatrox needs 2-3 damage items to even compare to them and that will bring him down. Riot needs to rework on his Ratios, no need to increase the base damage of any spells because it is enough already, just the Ratios need to be changed because he is naturally non tanky and will need the damage later on to compete with any other champ. I would love Riot to bring Aatrox back into the game as a Champion who is meant for his spot, A natural sustainer who doesn't fall down naturally late game. Not the champion who is weaker than other champs.

Grammar has nothing to do with readability of your post. It hurts my eyes, therefore, i shall not read it.

If you want people to read your post then make it readable. It's not about your lack of interest in using your language correctly, it's about your readers.

Imo his kit is Aaatrocious. Skillshot slow, one long cooldown jump, sustain like a third of ww or fiddle's and ultimate that does almost nothing. And op passive that guarantees a burial committee.

Aatrox's skill shot is really good considering it's cd and it's range, If you aim it correctly, you can barely ever miss with his skill shot. It also lets him CS in lane without actually fighting because the cd is short enough to get mostly every minion and because minions takes 5-9 seconds to bring themselves to 50 hp. The jump is really strong already such as vi's Q or charge knock up, It's a hit the skill shot and get a really good reward or miss and try again. His sustain is outrageous lol, Fiddle can be cc'd out his heal which brings it to a 4-8 cd and Warwick needs to actually stack it on each person again and again like Vayne because it doesn't switch targets, mean while Aatrox can keep switching targets and the heals only meant to heal when he is half hp, Consider building 1-2 damage such as Botrk and Hydra with Visage and I guarantee you, You will be healing around 300-400 per 3 hit at half hp. His ultimate is great for his kit because it's meant for a huge 1v1 fight, If you can kite with it's low range you can fight any melee person because of his cc meant for 1v1's, Keep them on the chase and kite, heal and kite, Bring them low and then jump right on them with more hp than them and get the kill. The ultimate is really strong imo because it's one of the only spells to give a melee person (like kayle) ranged attack (still considered melee in ultimate)and its damage is decent, best thing is the attack speed steroid which is huggeeee.

Also consider the attack speed gained from his passive and ult at level 18, 115% that's a huge steroid lol

that is just it, i remember somewhere saying if top lane meta changed to sustain push lanes, like traditional shen was back in s1/s2 i believe, or heavy all in comps, aatrox would be perfect for that meta, but the current one is more bruiser, pop pick comps.
