New BbTrox: Bully become bullied
After watching a few entertaining and informative videos on the new Aatrox, I decided to do a bit of testing on the new re-work and found that what a lot of people have said previously was very true.
Old Aatrox gained LCS status from his abiltiy to deal huge amounts of damage in burst and DPS, but always found himself getting bullied until he could get to that point. It was a trade off for his kit that kept him out of the SoloQ but as a highly contested pick in the LCS. But now that his re-work has come out, the new Aatrox is actually one of the strongest bullies in the entire game, early on. His Q can take you down to half HP with just one cycle, if combined with his passive and an additional auto attack. During the early stages of the game, mobile champions are less mobile: His W can actually work. His dash is just enough to sustain early aggression . . .
But that's sort of when the new Aatrox begins to jump off of a bridge. As the game goes on and on, he becomes more and more obsolete and unable to function as an actual champion. Although the current bug gives Aatrox a boasting winrate at the moment, when that goes and he is reverted to his previous state things will be even worse for him.

So when you pick Aatrox, you're really telling yourself: I'm going to beat my laner so hard that they're going to be as useless as I am later on into the game. I'm going to win so hard in-fact that we'll win by the time that I become useless. Keep that in mind the next time you lock in Aatrox . . . if you really want to torture yourself.
early and now aatrox is the bullynoi of the immobile tanks. It's cool b/c yorick is midgame carry now
