Will Aatrox receive any changes in the future?

This champion is desperately in need of some kit redesigns to at least make him better in solo Que. Aatrox doesn’t nearly have the same capacity to do as much as riven can in her own. There’s no point of taking Aatrox when solo Que environment doesn’t suit him well. He’s to team reliant. To carry on his own and take towers fast enough to end a game by himself. Statistically there are no Aatroxs one tricks in challenger from what I understand. That’s because he’s not champion that you can pick blindly isn’t any game and win.

Why do people think challenger presence determines the state of a champion?

At least use Masters+ as a data set. There are only ~1750 challenger slots globally, and many of those players do not have a high game count, or don't consistently remain in challenger.

Meanwhile in Masters+ there are almost 26500 players, the majority of which at least consistently remain among that bracket.

Not only that, but the best Aatrox players are above average at an average skill level of Diamond 2, while most are Diamond 3 or below.

Also, part of why Aatrox is good, and even played in pro play, is because he's a free first pick. He's insanely safe while having a really overbearing earlygame vs a lot of match-ups. His problem is that he's not a great teamfighter due to CDs and animation times, and he's not a great split pusher. His win condition is getting ahead and staying ahead, which can mean forcing bad plays in a desperate attempt to remain so.

Just, rebalance him so his Q's do the same consistent damage, and the sweet spots do true damage instead. Improve his W so that leaving the zone slows the target but getting pulled by the chains stuns the target for 1 second.

Give him back his self rez from ult. Zilean has his self rez, Tryndamere gets 6 secs anti-death while being able to engage in actions. Why was aatrox's self rez removed?

Gve him back his grievous wound application on his passive proc.
