Aatrox rework and why I quit playing LOL

I main Aatrox and I loved playing him even though he was very underpowered. He was situational and could backdoor games which was always fun. Turrent killer is what I usually call him. But I just played a game where, I went 4-9-4 and my passive only worked once in 22 mins of game play. Now instead of having fun playing Aatrox, it is just sad. The champ was the reason I played LOL but now it is time to move on. I am disappointed that you killed off my champ. Goodbye LOL

Yeah, they just gave a fraction of dmg on his W back and more health to make him more like any other bruiser. They completely took aatrox at the wrong end took away so many things for nearly nothing and now they try to buff him randomly asap to make him have about 50% winrate.

Just that at the end he won't be the hero Aatrox player enjoeyed so much with his unique desing. I liked it to lose hp with my W but to get more dmg from it. I liked it to have less health than the average toplaners but have a super strong lifesteal to make up for it.

Well all is lost because riot would never admit failure and just keep talking their tryhardshit like "the direction is promising but he performs unexpected bad" lol. What is this supposed to mean anyway?

Aatrox had the issue of "im ahead so i can impact the map, or i'm behind so im completely useless" He brought nothing to a team when behind.. He relied on snowballing.. I know a lot of champions do well when snowballing but Aatrox NEEDED it. Yes his old W is better in early game trades but outside of that into team fights if he droped below 50% hp he would pop before getting to utilize it. That is part of the issue they want to fix.
