I don't want to hear about Aatrox anymore

Regarding the topic of Aatrox

No more.

There is nothing to discuss. Enough.

  1. He's been reworked for a few days, so there's not enough data
  2. Who cares? (and if you do, just wait a few weeks at least)
  3. Most of you don't even play the damn champ

So ENOUGH.

Okay?

Nah. Discussion is vital for a game like this.

  1. Doesn't take a genius to know most of the changes were bad for him.
  2. I do? What kind of argument are you trying to make here?
  3. I do.

No. Not enough. People who actually play the champion want their voices to be heard. Riot's direction of this update is concerning to the people who play Aatrox. It shows their lack of understanding and willingness to even listen to people who actually DO play him.

Aatrox is too weak right now, but that does not imply the rework was shit. Darius was dog shit when his rework dropped too, and though he is generally on the stronger side he has proven to be a successful design. Give it some time.

The rework is shit and will be shit till they revert his attack speed and w. The rework was literally just a buff to half his kit and a nerf to the other half. He plays the exact same. The differencw is that this rework was a nerf in disguise while the darius rework actually reworked how he played to be better.

Ok i don't think i explained myself right

Aatrox has a problem called identiry crisis. He has multiple things he wants to build to be optimal. These are health, attack damage, resistances and attack speed. The problem is that if you focus too much on anyone of these its bad for aatrox. This is why tanktrox and full ad were generally bad builds. Eventually people worked out that a bruiser build was best for him which was a mix between everything.

Now rework comes along and messes this up even more weakening everything about him bar his q. He is now more reliant on hp and attack speed because of the changes to his w and passive. But also needs more damage as well because of his reduced w damage as well. Basically there is no good way to build him now. This is why the rework is a failure. It didn't remove much or any of his problems and made the ones already there even more prominent.

Or you know... they could have left him as he previous was

there's just no pleasing everyone

again, I don't necessarily want to hear about it because...

  1. Its been like ONE WEEK (not enough data to say anything)

  2. He's going to get reworked later right?

...

so....

Its a 39% winrate...

In a year. Not leaving him in this state for a year would be nice.

ah you mean all the posts from all the people whining about nerfs when they have literally never played aatrox prior to the mini-rework? lmao

He is getting potential hot fixes according to today's gameplay thoughts from meddler and the Aatrox revisit has gotten around 20k views honestly I think more people care to see it but aren't sure what riot will do with it yet.

I don't play Aatrox so I don't especially care what they do to him. But there's this revolutionary new concept I'd like to suggest to you. I believe the locals call it "If you don't like it then don't read it" (not sure if I'm pronouncing that correctly).
