Aatrox's rework was a mistake.

This rework is an irrefutably total failure gameplay wise, and needs to be reverted immediately until it can be implemented and done correctly because as it stands currently, not only does the champion feel like shit it's obvious he's unfinished. Lore wise, sure, it's pretty good but who cares about the lore when it's not enjoyable to play or look at and nothing about him makes sense.

-Q is probably the clunkiest ability in the game currently and just seems like a random mess of shit trying to figure out it's purpose in the world. It's like it wants to be both a Riven and Sion Q at the same time while not having any damage to work with to make it worth the trouble of landing.

The first hit is fine I suppose, but then the second hit comes and throws you off because 1) it's noticeably shorter than the first hit and 2) THE FIRST HIT DOESN'T EVEN SET THE TARGET UP IN RANGE OF THE SECOND HIT. So unless you E forward and most likely miss the sweetspot, you'll miss the entire second hit altogether. The third hit COULD be a satisfying finisher but instead it locks you in place so you either have to pray the other guy is dumb enough to walk into it or you have to E AND blow your flash just to land it and still do no damage because bad numbers.

The sweetspots need to be slightly easier to hit, the second Q needs to be as long as the first Q while getting slightly thinner to compensate, and the third Q should have the same range as his old Q at the cost of a slight radius reduction.

-W could potentially be a good ability all around even if it is a little out of place, but it's not because the skillshot portion is too short and it doesn't pass through minions like Aatrox's old E.

Simply increase the range and make it pass through minions.

-E is so incredibly out of place and it's obvious it was only put there to make up for stripping away Aatrox's Q mobility, but it doesn't even do a good job of that because it's so short and useless aside from awkwardly hopping over short walls, and that's on top of the extremely high cooldown.

This ability needs to be scrapped completely, but since that most likely wont happen the range needs to be increased to at least double what it is now, but should be disabled when Aatrox's third Q is queued up for use. This would also help him get out afterwards.

-R I find to be mostly useless now aside from the movement speed and the free GA, simply because the bonus attack range/speed was removed. Reworked Aatrox struggles enough as it is to get on top of people, why would you strip him of this as well?

Simply give him his old bonus attack range and increased attack speed.

Also, why is he German? Why does he only have his wings in his "true form"? Why isn't he a lefty anymore? Why did you ruin my favorite champion?
