Revert Aatrox to prior "mini rework"

To start I'm a level 7 Aatrox, he was my first main champ and I started league in preseason S7.

I have played him maybe 3 times since his little rework, because of how horrible it has made him. Not saying he wasn't bad before, but the rework made him even more useless. The justification from what I remember was so he could build tanky when behind and not be to over powered when fed.

My opinion on Aatrox's prior kit "pre-rework" was this. He would need a constant stream of gold to stay relevant. He was useless in team fights except for his Q's knock up, which still was underwhelming. To me he was a 1v1 god. Perfect for ganks and split pushing. His passive revive was perfect for tower dives and jumping into a team fight knowing you are fucked. When majorly fed and with no counter items being built "Mortal reminder / Thornmail" or CC he could 1 v 3 with a little luck.

His rework made his passive a pain in the ass to activate, the attack speed stacks don't last as long and even building tanky he is still useless.

Now I know Riot has mentioned that could get ahead and be unstoppable. Which is why they don't want to buff him.

But honestly what about every other fucking champion that can get fed and carry a game? Do they not matter? Just to name a few....

My point is Aatrox needs to be reverted, he was more fun to play, he had the potential to get ahead and stay ahead. If he falls behind no big deal you can split push.

Now here is my expert opinion on a proper rework for Aatrox from his previous build. And I'm sure other Aatrox mains would agree.

Make him unstopppable ( ) during his Q. Make his Q knock up 50% larger. Decrease his w healing by 50%. Increase his E (AD) scaling and add a scaling from attack speed. Add an (AP) scaling to his abilities , Or remove his R (AP) scaling and replace with (AD).

Changes to revert. Blood well, Passive activation.
