Aatrox isn't even a viable champ pick anymore his win rate has gone down so much because Riot nerfed his ass so much. I love how Riot first releases Aatrox and abandons him for years letting him rot then giving him one or two buffs then after reworking him. It was good I guess, but they made him so god damn strong the whole community was on fire asking Riot to nerf him and they did. They slowly nerfed him more and more till he was useless. He doesn't even the ability to come back to life anymore and that's pretty stupid. They basically got rid of what Aatrox one of the most unique champions in the game. Riots also giving him a victorious skin for some reason probably to cover up all the nerfs they did to him so at least give Aatrox some buffs OR HIS REVIVE BACK when you release this new victorious skin, please he's now sitting at a 48% win rate on op.gg and it's absolutely terrible to play him in lane. Aatrox just isn't fun to play anymore. I gotta say I had more fun playing Aatrox before his rework and thats saying something because at that time the whole community thought that Aatrox was trash and all agreed that Riot just released a champion and forgot about him. I hope Riot reworks him like i feel kinda bad for the new people coming into league and trying out Aartox only to find out he's garbage so please Riot FIX AATROX. PLEASE RIOT FIX HIM PLEASE

hes at a ~47% wr. way less than average. He definitely needs buffs, but the circle jerk community here on the forums needs to realize, that if they cant step 2 steps to the side using their brain, it shouldnt be nerfed.

Well, to be fair, the nerfs he got wasn't because of the community: It was Riot's lack of awareness of solving the real problem with the lack of toplane diverse picks. The lane is a matchup wild west hellhole with no structure outside of tanks getting the dick currently. Counterpicking is a 100% necessity to even function in game. Aatrox was the top pick because he could survive the counterpick/adc + mage hell, as well as being able to function even in his worst matchups. Him being flexable in pro is Riot's fault.

So instead of fixing the problem they decided to throw it into the trashbin like they did with top's problems. This time they did it 3 times in one year, just to kill his pro viability. Tanks have their way with him, aggressive picks have their way with him, and stupid cheese shit like Ryze top and Adc tops can have their way with him. What does he have to counter it? Nothing. No decently reliable sustain for lane, and a far from good late game.

If you have 0 defensive stats and have fed him 20+ kills. Any bit of damage mitigation whatsoever just kills his healing.
