Aatrox vs Master Yi

Blind Archer··2 votes·1,042 views

I just tried Aatrox jungle and instead of going black cleaver and the other bruiser stuff, I went the hack and slash build of master yi. First I fell behind because of a couple mistakes in the jungle. I farmed and ganked myself back up and got the objectives I needed to get. But when I got my infinity edge everything changed. I went in 1v3 and killed them all within 3 seconds (I almost one shotted ezreal with: W passive + statikk shiv + crit), somewhat faster than a yi would do. I'm not sure if it was just a lucky game while I had a bad start, but is this maybe an overlooked build path for aatrox?

Jungle Build:

bloodrazor -> any bootstype -> statikk shiv -> infinity edge -> blade of the ruined king -> phantom dancer

You're lucky you weren't CC'd and killed before you made use of your damage.

Crittrox does a lot of damage, but is incredibly squishy. He has no meaningful defenses and a mediocre gapcloser (take a look at Trynd, Yasuo, Yi, the other crit melee carries, and you'll see their gapclosers are all miles better), meaning he has a hard time using his damage.

On the otherhand, Titanic Hydra + tank Aatrox will still nearly oneshot squishies with a good combo. Aatrox's bases got a big buff in his minirework.
