Patch 9.14
This patch ruined the game, I've been playing for the last 6 years and the changes in this patch finally convinced me to uninstall the game. The changes to Aatrox, Mordekaiser, and Swain made me hate the champions I used to love

Swain changes are buffs. He's a close-range battlemage that doesn't need to play a minigame to have access to his ult, and he actually has mana sustain. The stacking health lets him turn into an unkillable late game monster.
Morde needed a nerf. Would have preferred they do something more interesting like change his total magic pen to bonus magic pen (so he doesn't make squishy things squishier, he's just harder to build against).
Aatrox is just the latest in many champions who have had their unique mechanics taken away because they're difficult to balance at the pro level, and the devs think that we'd rather have stronger champions than unique champions. I don't know where they got that idea.
He's a close-range battlemage. Of course his Q doesn't chunk people at a distance.
His ult healing DOES scale with the number of minions in range. He gets 10% of the amount he gets from a champion per minion in range. Read the tooltip.
If you get bursted down as the tank with infinite health scaling, I don't know what to tell you. Build more armor and MR?
