Aatrox seriously needs some nerfs

Anime Fizz·Aug 16, 2019·8 votes·2,311 views

Like some actual nerfs that maybe make him not the best top laner in the gaem in both high elo solo queue and competitive, even riven (who was only good in solo q) was nerfed already and so was irelia who was nerfed 20 times and is currently shit tier, where the hell are the aatrox nerfs?

The champion has been the pick or ban meta in competitive ever since his rework, please riot, do something already and stop letting aatrox be this safe lane bully with utility that scales into a aoe team fighting sustain monster.

What kind of tops u play ?

Most op top picks, which most people are abusing cuz this game is now more about op picks than skill, can smash Aatrox easily.

Camille Fiora Jax Jayce Quinn Riven Renekton Urgot Tryndamere Yasuo Vayne

You forgot Kled and Darius btw, clap Aatrox easily.

But playing Aatrox vs Fiora is so fucking horrible..like you legit want to off yourself after. You are so used to hit your spells and now you get punished for hitting them (if you do, while she Qs around or runs with her R at mach 10).

fiora lane as any juggernaut is a game you want to dodge, lets not kid ourselves

they smash aatrox because he doesnt have his double E. why did we cripple a character this hard?

Divin1tyAug 16, 20195 votes

To not let him disable his one counterplay of "dodge his spells".

SmackledorbAug 16, 20192 votes

but now its a joke to dodge them so wheres the balance

As an Aatrox Main, I hit my skillshots very reliable. And no, it shouldn't stack to 2 at max Range, because with the 40% CDR he will obtain first, he has already 3-4 Sec CD on his E. With two, he would have constantly his Dash up.

But I suppose you are one of the people that want his revive back, am I right?

SmackledorbAug 16, 20191 votes

and thats how it should be. with his healing nerfed and movement speed from ult nerfed. the revive is a shame but it doesn't matter.

Divin1tyAug 16, 20191 votes

The healing got buffed...are you trolling?

SmackledorbAug 16, 20191 votes

i mean thats not what i said but its w/e rip boris

"with his healing nerfed" youre actually just a shitty aatrox player and a shitty troll.

rip boris

SmackledorbAug 16, 20191 votes

it should stack to 2 at max rank. that would keep him from being a huge lane bully and give him what he needs for team fights.

Divin1tyAug 16, 20195 votes

I think you meant Riven, who does everything he does, but better.

Moody PAug 16, 20195 votes

it's fun when aatrox misses his sweet spots and still win trades

Great rework

GayFluffyUnicornAug 16, 20191 votes

Yeah i noticed that recently on kled. Dodge first Q, dodge second q, third q then hits ofc+passive hit and basically outtraded my entire kit like yeah okay.

"lane bully" Right...come back to me on that when his Q has a 8 second cooldown and his E has a stun. Oh wait, that sounds alot like someone else... Jax

Divin1tyAug 16, 20192 votes

Hashinshin be like: bUt It DeAlS nO DaMaGe. As if his Q Damage was the Problem.

RagnaveilAug 16, 20191 votes

The only damage thats the issue is his hybrid damage combined with Conq. And his E.

Sustain monster? You have to build one cheap item to shoot him down bro~ item 3123

Troll SlaiyerAug 16, 20194 votes

if im top i perma ban him. its riven with more range.

Are you serious dude??????

Aatrox This thing already got his Resurrection removed. Statistically, aatrox was an S tier top laner before his nerf, and now he falls in the A and B. The ult was what made him a pain, and it's gone, so deal with it.

If you wanna nerf something, I suggest a discussion for these champs. Ahri Kled Cassiopeia Darius Volibear

If you wanna learn how to counter him, you either play one of those champions, cry like a baby, ban him like a chicken, or learn when to trade/all in. Freezing is also very effective, and aatrox is really easy to punish if played against correctly.

SmackledorbAug 16, 20192 votes

he needs his double E back

Divin1tyAug 16, 20197 votes

No, fuck off with that change, it removes all counterplay to doding his Qs and is only requested by low skilled Aatrox Players.

GayFluffyUnicornAug 16, 20191 votes

Yeah right cuz it's now so different from being hit once and then dying from full health.

I think that's what a lot of people dont get. When riot makes kits so unreliable it has to pay off when it finally works and it leads to shitty situations like illaoi being a oneshot piece of shit, irelia, aatrox.

And u thinking hitting an EQ into double W into guarantee combo is more skillful than having double E is actually funny. Both the same outcome due to a shitty kit relying on a single ability.
