Can Aatrox's balance not be fucking held at the mercy of pro play?
Like seriously, hes a sad pile of trash. Terrible sustain, easy to walk out of or easy to outrange damage, only one damaging ability worth nothing (W is just Q fodder)(Also Q damage is just inconsistent as shit). Like please, just take Q2 and put it as his W. I'd prefer that than being so Q centric to the point it kills the champ's back (looking at you Irelia). Why did Aatrox have to get the axe when Akali was the more problematic one once you got rid of the revive? Every other lane has easy blind picks that have not really strong counters, but toplane doesnt get to have any? All this talk about "we're gonna fix top" is just words Riot, actually fix the lane, fix the fuckin' suffering champions in this lane, and give Aatrox the justice he deserves (also Galio because god forbid he acts like a anti-mage). No more words, just action.
and these champions are all that have inbuilt healing like aatrox around which they are actually tuned. In short, these are champions whose characteristic is sustain ( tho, aphelios isnt worthy in my opinion). Excluding aphelios, all 4 have on par sustain and only for one battle or short duration of time. ( Kayn has 40% but he doesnt do that much dmg to outsustain opponents. Vlad has better sustain in 1v1 only and less consistent in comparison. WW, when he is more dmg oriented and also has less than 50% HP or so... Beside this, they all have better sustain when you include ultimate in which case they might surpass aatrox but that is limited to one battle by CD. )
