Season 5 Meta top laners

Aatrox is trash.

Aatrox is pretty garbo at everything except late game dueling.

Honestly Hec is more better. Aatrox just needs some tweaks and buffs and he will be good to go.

Heca takes half the hp bars of the whole enemy team with his combo - using tp and homeguards - so you are basically bursty teamfight mage, that is too tanky to be instakilled when jumps into the enemy. After that you die, tanking for the adc/midlaner, who finish the hp bars

Aatrox is so bad that if you dont die to him level 2 you will win lane and outscale him.

Cinderhulk+challenger smite beat everything. For your question far stronger.

I know this isn;t going to sound very reliable but i won top lane a lot with Aatrox to the point where he was my main for a bit, (not anymore) and i couldn't find any big weakness' he had, and i know Hecarim is a much much better team fighter than Aatrox but in dueling Aatrox is second to none. So please explain his weakness' to me
