What happened to the buffs to Aatrox that Riots said were coming two different times and still haven't shown up?
They first told us it would be during the preseason. Nothing.
Then they told us it would be some time in January. Well its January 24th and still no buffs.
Please Riot where are the buffs to my favorite champ?
Isn't it common knowledge that buffing Aatrox would just make him into a Yasuo-tier cancer champion?
He needs a rework, not a buff.
the irony of people bringing up aatroxs passive when tryndamere has an ult on less than HALF the cooldown of aatroxs passive, and its way more effective because you can actually do shit during the time of your "death".... Sure aatrox revives with 20-30% hp, but generally dies within half a second of his revive so its fucking useless
His Q is complete shit
If you have his heal turned on while fighting someone you are aatroxing improperly because the damage part far out weighs his laughable sustain which is countered by a shit ass 800 gold item
His E has no base damage, crap AD scaling, the only uses for it are ROFL APtrox or a mediocore slow which basically never even helps you stick to anyone because its stupidly long cooldown for what it does
aatrox is shit, hes far from a god tier, and god forbid you have more playable champs in this game
Well ever since the release of the reworked Warwick, there is now literally no reason to pick Aatrox. As bad as Aatrox is, he is supposed to be a sustained fighter but in order to build decent sustain, you have to build damage so your heal can be worth something. Building rageblade is essential in order for him to be at all relevant.
Now? Warwick is better than Aatrox in quite literally, every way that it is laughable to compare the two. Lets just compare the two's sustain.
WARWICK Warwick's basic attacks deal 10 - 44 (based on level) bonus magic damage on-hit. While below 50% maximum health, Warwick's basic attacks also heal him for the same amount, with the healing tripled to 30 - 132 (based on level) while below 25% maximum health.
So in other words, below 50%, WW heals 10 - 44 flat per auto. Below 25%, the heal is tripled. That is per auto. Thats not even assuming if he has Rageblade which will double his healing potential. Thats not even including the immense damage AND heal from his Bite.
AATROX BLOOD THIRST: Aatrox heals himself on-hit every 3rd auto. While Aatrox is below 50% maximum health, heal is tripled. 「 HEAL: 20 / 25 / 30 / 35 / 40 (+ 25% bonus AD) 」
Lets even assume Aatrox has 100 bonus AD and it's maxed rank. He heals for 115 below 50% EVERY 3RD AUTO.
This means that Warwick can outheal Aatrox immensely despite not building any damage. Aatrox is now literally useless. Xin is a better sustained fighter with the buff to his crit, and now Warwick.
They couldnt even bother to make Aatrox untargetable while in midair on his Q. Everything about him is counter productive.
"We will severely nerf his W usability despite him being already weak, but if this leaves him in a bad place we will buff him a bit in compensation"
Is in a horrible state
For several patches now
With no end in sight
