So I agree with the Aatrox nerf

But can we keep his voice lines he currently uses when he revives? They're just so epic and I feel as though it's a waste if they leave with the revive.

A quick idea is to maybe have them trigger when he gets a massive self heal near death or something

I fucking can't stand pro play. I love how top lane has been desecrated for 3 seasons in a row because of pro play. Almost every top lane balance issue or a kit being ripped apart in the past 3 years can be summed up to "because proplay". Fucking disgusting.

AAtrox went from being a drain tank, to being a drain tank they managed to remove his entire identity and still leave his self healing when thats the 1 thing they wanted to remove. He will always be trash tier or op, its how vlad, olaf,aatrox, rhast and the likes are (rhast has his weakness of normal kayn downtime which is why he isnt gutted) Riot just likes making them trash tier instead of op as they arent flashy. The passive and his E passive are gonna be the main problem in his kit for a long time. The R revive after kill never really did me any good, always felt like If i could kill a dude mid teamfight, the revive wasnt why i was strong, it was the fact i could ya know, kill a dude mid teamfight. Turret dives typically with triumph especially never really resulted in me dying after the kill. Several times id die tryna get my revive, as opposed to just walking away. The timer on his R is to low for it to be reliable. its really just a win more mechanic, so that in a near even matchup aatrox just default wins because hes aatrox. If your massively ahead it really doesnt help if you managed to die you probably got caught out and have 4 people on your body waiting. If your behind, you are tryna kill steal to revive, and if you do you probably are so weak they can ignore you till its gone/double kill you anyway. If you are even, you run the 50/50 of just winning becuase * im aatrox*. Taking the revive allows them to change a bit of his power. Wonder if they will buff his E by giving 2 charges, increase his range on q, or w slow or something as compensation later when eh tanks in winrate in pro play and barely moves in yolo q.

Riot plz, nerf Aatrox's strength, not his dialogue. That's the strongest thing about him after all

Hash gave a suggestion a while back to have the ultimate instead of revive just burst heal when he would instead die. That way it's functionally the same thing only without the stasis.

this nerf is too hard, they must give him something instead

So you want a 49% win rate champion to be nerfed? He's sub 50% in ALL ranks, he doesn't need any changes. I WOULD support the removal of it, but only if the healing portion of his ult got buffed waaaaay up.

I really think the revive should stay and the increased healing should go. Aatrox's self revive is iconic to me, I can't imagine him without it.

What does he say? I can't find anything for revives on the wiki

edit: jk I'm dumb it's under "resurrection"

So, you agree to remove a huge portion of his kit for no other reason that he is good at pro play? And the balance team does not understand that this nerf is bigger at solo queue and almost does not effect pro play at all because he still gets increased self healing on R. What can I say, the balance team is really made of monkeys.

It’s a shitty nerf that’s only happening because he’s oppressive in pro play, he literally won’t have a late game just fucking revert him

Let olaf have the revive maybe. According to the lore.

Rework a Champion because kit is too toxic, removing kit identity Nerf new kit because it's too toxic, removing the Champion's identity

If you ever wonder why I don't want Riot anywhere near my favorite Champions, even if it means they will stay in the trash bin.

Some of them could work for his respawn, just saying.

Or just make them trigger on any revive.
