if not even redmercy can make a clickbait gameplay title then it has to be literally unplayable
which looks quite good because aatrox is just one of those god awful champions with terrible design thats "ball of stats that runs at you until you die" and nothing more
Trap or a Trick3 votesMaybe its because the ''Buffs'' they gave him ended up being MASSIVE fucking nerfs. As an aatrox player myself I find it INSANE how they can let these play out, they are almost as bad as the ''nerfs'' to Lucian in patch 4.12 ... yea remember those?

Are they?
I think they're encouraging a tankier build, since worse AD scaling on W, E or Q is now a total AD scaling instead of bonus, he no longer uses % of his health for abilities, and his W heal is a % of his missing health too.

They're encouraging NOT picking him, by making his e do 0 damage at every rank, you q literally does more damage than ur e, the w heal is worse at every stage of the game no matter the build, your revive passive has the same cd, but if you get 1 shot you cant even revive to escape or fight, the tank build right now is for jungle, 
or 
or 
and that doesn't do shit on new aatrox, the BEST build on him right now, does HALF the damage on the new one 
filler item. I think they should 100% scrap these changes and just make his passive attack speed more impactful (not that it isn't already).
But hey, what place do I have here, no matter how good or bad I am at this game riot will NEVER listen to me, at this point I'm just talking to a brick wall. :) thanks for nerfing my favourite champ riot, Thanks a ton...

Isn't the heal a %missing health? It's the same as Illaoi's, I believe, so it can't be that bad.

Shit in general, or...?
It's not a good time to judge Aatrox, tbh, he's shit against burst.
SC WorldEnder1 votesMay be the same as Illaoi's, but hers works off EVERY champion hit PER tentacle. That's a lot more healing than what the flat number for Aatrox's W is with the missing hp. They are better off keeping the triple healing.

Maybe it's less, but it's much more reliable. It's also sustain, cause it works of minions and monsters too.
dimiondo1 votesIts worse because aatrox needs to build damage to be effective. A common misconception with why tanktrox is unviable is his hp costs. Its partly the reason, but the main reason is that aatrox has next to no hard cc and does no damage without building bruiser. Pushing him in that direction is going to make him worse.

Think they're giving him more damage though, I think something turned into a base AD ratio instead of bonus. Otherwise, no idea.

I am kind of excited for his changes because I will be building him exactly the same way as I do now.
dimiondo1 votescan't see your stuff for some reason. If your building him bruiser its literally how he is meant to be built. Tanktrox is no damage or attack speed items just all resistance which makes him shit because he can't do jack. This is a nerf to bruiser aatrox.
AlienPrimate1 votesFirst game: 14/5/4 with

aatrox is everything wrong with xin yi jax swain olaf udyr and all the other stat balls that just run you down until you die and doesn't ever deserve to be strong
GhostOfTsushima2 votesanything is OP to Bronze
DunkinNoobs2 votesBruiser Aatrox is trash, and pushing him more in that direction with these changes only makes him more trash.
