@Meddler is Aatrox ever going to be good?

there is not a single point of the game where i feel "ahead"

every ability aatrox have, oppose the others, like you want attackspeed, but you scale off bonus AD, your abilities cost health, but you regain them each 3rd hit, or take more damage to deal bonus Damage every third hit, that also scales off bonus AD, Q does more damage to your health than the enemy, your ult is basically AS and Range, you get punished for building health because the costs are % of current health and your base stats are weak that you NEED the health and resistances.

also, GA passive that revives you based on how much health you used.

the heal is weak when you're above 50% health.

and so on.

don't get me started about how his Q is one of the worst gap closers there is.

also, you're always, ALWAYS squishie.

you have no Base Damage.

you're never ahead, you're just slightly below average whenever you play Aatrox.

are we ever going to take a Serious look into Aatrox?

Gotta give lee sin his annual buffs : ^) and the boards are full of double standards. If a champion is annoying to play against when good, they say they should nerf it into the shit tier.

Riven is cancerous as fuck to play against (She's not op. Just an annoying little bitch like yasuo) and she gets fucking buffed.

Despite Aatrox's binary kit, he is exceptionally rewarding (or at least I feel) when you know what you're doing and are able to contend against almost the entire roster of champions in the league.

He's a lot harder to learn than people give him credit for, there are very few Aatrox players and even fewer good* guides for Aatrox players. I don't want to sugarcoat you so all I can say is that, if you REALLY want to get good with Aatrox then all you need to do is simply play him to learn him (not to win). Don't expect amazing results at the start and figure out your own playstyle and build that works for you. Typically I'm the more aggressive style of player, I'll go for kills the moment I see an opportunity, If i'm getting ganked i'd rather attempt to turn that into a double kill than a fruitless death. The biggest advice I can give you is to TAKE RISKS when you play Aatrox, this is the best way to test your limits and when you go back and revise you can see where you could improve your skills.
