Can people stop suggesting stupid changes to Aatrox and see his actual problems?

Changes like "give him old sion's ult" "Give him more base stats" "Make his Q untargetable" and dumb stuff like that.

Giving Aatrox old sion's ult doesn't fix the inheritent brokeness of his kit and doesn't fit his lore. Where the actual fuck is aatrox healing plebs in his lore? Where? ??? He inspires them, he doesn't heal them. He turns the tide by making them angry, not healing them.

"Give him more base stats" Giving a stat checker more stats? No. No. No. and No. His stats arer low because he gets tons of free attack speed, free GA, and health sustain. That's why his base stats are low. Then you ask tryndamere, why the hell does this guy with sustain too has 700 base health with a doran's blade? He doesn't have ranged harass and is forced to make minion aggro if the trades with you, that's why.

"Make his Q untargetable" MINI Malphite ULT ON A 14 SECONDS COOLDOWN IS BALANCED!!!!!!!!

One of Aatrox's major problem is he needs almost every stat in the game to function properly. And he doesn't scale super hard neither for needing every single stat in the game. Thus he's bad early while not being good late.

Giving him more utility or reliable CC is much smarter than giving him more stats. He shouldn't get more of them.

Don't you want more?

There are people who main him. I used to anyways. I realized how stupid that was after they shit on devourer.

Also a successful rework like poppy or Yorick captures the old themes of the champion while creating a fresh, enjoyable and healhthy kit.

honestly i don't see Aatrox threads that often so i don't know where half this stuff is coming but, if his problem were that simple they would've done something about it.

Riot does like one fix per season to aatrox and never have they actually fixed his problems or anything.

OP, what if he gave his team a sort-of death's dance buff? Would that count as inspire to you? Where they have to fight for it. His ratios are all over the place I agree with that.

Lifesteal or the damage delay?

Damage delay with a vamp component of %dmg dealt while they bleed out.

From the balance perspective, it sounds good.

From the lore perspective, meh.

I think the team death's dance would fit pretty well with his lore; except for the bit about him disappearing.

What would you give him?

10/12.5/15% tenacity per champion hit with his ult. There, now he can teamfight and won't suck.

Aatrox needs something.

Why isn't Aatrox played anyway? I understand his weaknesses, but when I DO have an Aatrox on my team, I know I'm going to get carried.

The last Aatrox I had got us a Drake at LEVEL 1 about 40 seconds after it spawned, and every Drake after that (I didn't even know I could have so many Drake buffs in one game). Also managed to hold his ground 1v3 against the enemy jg, mid, support.

What happened to this champion? He seems really cool to me, but he costs 6.3k IP so I can't afford him ;(

Level 1 drake means shit, you're puttingyourself behind for trying some crappy gimmick

CrazyBear19871 votes

I honestly don't like his passive, there is no way to control his heal amount, i assume it just scales by HP%

I also feel his ULT isn't as strong or doesn't do what was intended.

I like Aatrox, every fun and interesting champion, but over shadowed due to his age and current meta picks.

Hoping for changes asap
