Give him back hes 2 charge E he is weak cant punish cant lane feel like i am in a perma slow when i know i cant dash twice. You already nerfed his dmg when season 9 started but still that wasnt enough just because LCS players are good at Aatrox after the E nerf dosent mean that all the other main or even players who started playing him can do the same.Aatrox is in a bad state FOR THE COMMUNITY. Give him he 2 Charge E back and just nerf something else.

Edit:And for those that are gonna say ''i had a horible time against 2 charge E aatrox" here is your answer RIVEN yeap thats a thing Riven the champion with 4 gap closers with a cooldown of 4-5 seconds each in midgame.What is that i hear she has a perfect itemization and if you know how to play her you can win ANYONE oh..ohh yea.

Leave the awful riven copypaste in the gutter or revert his kit.

Aatrox needs these buffs, anything else won't get to the real issues of the champ:

Increase base stats to compete with other juggernauts , ,
Increase healing to be like Rhaast 3.Increase base damages so he isn't forced to build nearly full damage to be useful, maybe lower scalings to balance that out

I honestly think they should buff his W (the slow, not the damage), as 2 dashes make him not really fit the category of juggernaut. Buffing how much the W slows could give him a reliable combo in Q, W, Q2, E, Q3, auto for passive.

Increasing the range on W would also help

I like the fact that Riot called Aatrox a Juggernaut but he has no incentive to build durability as both his healing and damage scales so heavily on damage, forcing him to build full AD.

Funny of you to assume that giving him two dashes is going to fix him.

And yet, aatrox is played very well in pro play and that is what riot balances around...so who cares.

“Nerf something else” Is there really anything to nerf without making him even more useless? -His passive is already predictable in lane and is impossible to proc against competent players -His Q damage waveclear and cool down are garbage until mid to late game, and are good only if he can but the spots. -His W slow and damage are dogshit, and the coodown is high enough for a last maxed skill shot. -E healing is underwhelming and unnoticeable until mid to late game, bonus damage is unnoticeable if you miss Q spots. -Ult has already high enough cool down and is hard to time for a lot of regen, and if he isn’t fed he can be ignored or instantly killed

Too much power of his power budget is in his unreliable Q leaving his W, E and sometimes Ult underwhelming so nerfing them will make them even shitter abilities and nerfing his Q will kill off the champion.

My suggestion for a buff is to make his W apply grounded to the chained target.

The can take some of his Q damage when they give him a smother q with less animation time.
