Aatrox needs some love too Riot.
I feel like with the new bruiser itemization and alot of hp/damage items coming out Aatrox should be seen more right? Then when you play Aatrox you realize there's some glaring problems in his kit.
- Why does W deal damage to Aatrox when it's turned on for damage? No other champ with 3 hit rule has such a bad drawback it's bad enough you're losing sustain but also getting punished for it. Essentially you just never turn it on.
- Why does E deal magic damage? This really hurts him the most, he can't get BC stacks from the ability and he can't get sustain form Deaths Dance from the ability. I'd rather his Q deal magic damage since it's just an initiation or cc tool.
- Why does all his abilities deal %hp damage? This really gives no incentive to buy hp or cdr on Aatrox, meaning he's forced to buy full damage and maybe a Spirit Visage.
Granted alot of these problems exist because of Aatrox's passive which doesn't fit on a melee dps style champ and feels really inconsistent. I'd rather get some kind of damage boost like a true/magic/ad/dot damage hit on 3 strikes or passive armor pen based on his % missing health just some kind passive that fits on a melee. This passive honestly fits more on a champ like Vlad than Aatrox.
