As the title states, Aatrox has lost everything that made him Aatrox.He lost his old W which allowed us to choose either to have more sustain or sacrifice hp to do massive damage.He lost his passive, He also lost his revive, he also lost much of his damage and passive abilities that gave him his sustain.

Please Riot, give him some of his uniqueness back. Either give him back his old passives or some new one which gives him much needed power. There are plenty of ideas in the aatroxmains reddit.

EDIT: people seem to not understand what I meant, with all the nerfs he is basically a much slower and weaker riven. His q's are slower than riven's, riven's dash gives a shield, riven's ult gives ad too and another ability on top, finally riven gets an auto attack buff after every ability, aatrox's has a huge cd. I am not saying he should return into a broken champion, but the nerfs he took were too harsh.

Im not asking for the old aatrox either

Unique playstyle that was basically just xin but with more healing while having no players and the fact no one played him really helped that idea.

He lost everything BECAUSE IT'S A FUCKING REWORK ok that's what will happen for basically everyone. Swain lost basically everything, urgot lost everything.

If any rework killed a unique playstyle it was yorick not aateox.

Also fuck what the Aatrox mains what they're nothing be people crying about a champion they want back.

If anything new Aatrox is more unique then the old one.

His W just needs to be changed and Q to be the "core" of his damage. Riven's kit is similar yet she is given power in her auto attacks for using her abilites. She uses a healthy combo of both. Aatrox on the other hand does little in autoing outside of passive, and all of his damage is centralized on Q, compared to Riven, who's Q isn't the central damage ability of the kit. W and R do damage. Aatrox E and R do not, and W's damage is non-existent. He needs auto attack agency, a thing I have preached time and time again. Even when they "fixed" him, I knew deep down he would get nerfed again eventually.

Champion “identities” are not an excuse for a champion to be so incredibly broken out their asses that they alone decide the entire game.

"Unique play style" = Autoing and lifestealing. OMEGALUL
