Reworked Aatrox is way worst than current Aatrox

Dear Rioters,

What have you done? You should have reworked Aatrox for the better not the worst.

Please tell me, why you copy past? why can not you make something new? If this is a college essay, it will be considered cheating or plagiarism and you will fail because...….

You have copied Irelia's new passive and pasted it in Aatrox's new passive. You have copied Revin's Qs and pasted it to Aatrox's Q. You have copied Swain's new Ravenous passive and pasted it to Aatrox's W. You have copied Fiora's Q and pasted it to Aatrox's E Finally you have copied Swain's new R and pasted it to Aatrox's R.

Is that is it, guys? You have got no more creativity to creat something new? Seriously? Really?

we have waited for so long for this ugly spells caster? RIP Aatrox 2013-2018, he will be missed as much as I miss my grandfather now.

Come on, riot! I am a fighter that wants to kill people using his sword only not ugly weird spells, I am not a mage!

I can not no longer kill someone inside the fountian and revive and get out safe and sound with this new aatrox, because now he dies like Tryndmere when he enters the fountian even if he is ulti is acitivated, this means you took away my second life.

I can no longer solo baron at level 13, rift at level 9, dragon at level 4, Red buff at level 1 with this new aatrox, because you took away all the heal I have got.

Rioters, please do not let this rework comes to the live server, we happy with the current Aatrox, we do not want a rework no more, please riot.

I know everybody hates Aatrox because he heals so much and revive all the time even you rioters hate him and wish him to disapear forever, you can do that, you can delete Aatrox from the game, but do it officaily not unofficially, and never call this new champion you just made Aatrox, because he can not be a replacement for him, he just can be a mixed cocktail juice!

I want to cut someone using my sword and left hand only, I do not want to use freaking Irelia's passive, revin's Qs, Swain's pulls, Fiora's Dashes, or Swains's ulti, respect my mind set, I can not focus on using spells even with old aatrox I never used Qs and Es, I only used to kill my foes with my passive, W, R, and ghost, I really simple minded guy, and you want to deny me for my simplicity?

I do not want to stop someone from healing using my passive because everybody knows I am king of heal. I do not want to one shot someone using my Qs because everybody know I love to toture my opponent and not give him an easy death, because I am not an assassin. I do not want to pull someone, come on I am not support blitzcrank. I do not want to dash like a coward, I want to jump like a legend, I do not flee like Fiora. I do not want ulti like Swain and gain health for that afterwards, I want to revive a billion time like Jusus and heal my self a trillion time like the Christ with my over 4.00 attack speed lethal tempo, now I can not even reach 2.50 attack speed even If I have lethal tempo and build that old aatrox tend to use, he even used to have the longest sword or blade in the game godammit. One attack speed item is enough to make him reach over 3.50 attack speed, two attack speed items is enough to make him reach over 4.00 attack speed, what if I buy 6 attack speed items? I will reach 12.00 attack speed.

I do not even like how he looks now or how he sounds, he is a joke he is not serious no more, old aatrox used to say "nobody understands me they call my work a hack job" "this is not a massacre this is my masterpiece" these things will never be said by new aatrox. Why did the guy who created aatrox resigned ? Bring him back please, only him can rework him to something better because he truly loves him.

Revert it please for the love of the christ do it.

If this rework comes live I will quit playing league of legends forever, you can consider Aatrox and I dead forever if it comes live.

Phoenixblade07 RIP 2009-2018. Aatrox The Darkin Blade RIP 2013-2018.

Aatrox and I will wait for jesus to revive us with him when we die after this rework comes to live.

You have copied Irelia's new passive and pasted it in Aatrox's new passive. You have copied Revin's Qs and pasted it to Aatrox's Q. You have copied Swain's new Ravenous passive and pasted it to Aatrox's W. You have copied Fiora's Q and pasted it to Aatrox's E Finally you have copied Swain's new R and pasted it to Aatrox's R.

Ugh. This kind of kit-equating irritated me on Pyke's reveal, and it irritated me on Galio's reveal, and it irritates me still on Aatrox's reveal.

Stop equating one Champion's kit to other Champions abilities. You are free to compare them to get some better understanding of how the abilities work, but stop saying "X ability is literally just Y ability". It's asinine, and it makes it that much harder to actually judge a Champion's kit.

Have you actually looked at the abilities you're talking about? Let's look at them.

Aatrox: - Passive - Deathbringer Stance: Aatrox’s next basic attack has increased range and deals a percentage of the target’s maximum health as damage. This attack also significantly reduces all healing and shielding on the target for a few seconds.

Deathbringer Stance’s cooldown is slightly reduced whenever Aatrox casts a spell or when he lands the edge of The Darkin Blade on a champion.

Irelia: - Passive - Ionian Fervor: When Irelia strikes enemies with spells she gains a stacking bonus damage buff on her basic attacks. At maximum stacks she also gains Attack Speed and deals bonus damage to shields.

Let's see, Aatrox gets attack range, %max health damage, and an empowered Grievous Wounds, and can reduce the cooldown by casting abilities and landing Q knock-ups.

Irelia gets bonus basic-attack damage from casting abilities, up to four times, and at four stacks gains attack speed and can cut through shields.

But sure, totally copied.

Aatrox: - Q - The Darkin Blade: Aatrox swings his greatsword up to three times. Each cast increases in damage, impacts a unique area of effect, and can hit with the edge of the blade (a second, smaller hitbox).

Edge of the blade: Hitting enemies at the far end of the first two casts and the center of the third briefly knocks them up and deals significantly more damage.

Riven: - Q - Broken Wings: Riven strikes out in front of her in a short line. This ability may be re-cast 2 additional times. 1st and 2nd Use: Slashes forward, dealing physical damage to all units she comes in contact with.

3rd Use: Leaps forward and slams the ground dealing physical damage and knocking nearby enemies up. This leap can cross unpathable terrain.

Aatrox makes three separate and unique attacks in a skillshot area (thick line, wide arc, AoE slam), with the edge of the blade (far end of the first strike, far end of the second strike, dead-center of the third strike) knocking enemies airborne and deals more damage.

Riven dashes forward and hits enemies around her, dealing the same damage all three times, leaping on the third hit, and knocking up enemies around her on the third hit.

"Copied".

Aatrox: - W - Infernal Chains: Aatrox smashes the ground, damaging the first enemy hit and briefly slowing them. If it’s a champion or large monster, they are chained to the impact area.

If the chained enemy is still in the impact area after a few seconds, they are dragged to the center and take damage again.

Swain: - Passive - Ravenous Flock: Swain's ravens collect Soul Fragments that heal him. Swain can right-click an immobilized enemy champions to pull them closer to him, dealing damage and ripping out a Soul Fragment.

Aatrox fires a line skillshot (reminiscent of Rek'Sai's burrowed Q) that damages and slows an enemy, and if the enemy is a Champion/large monster, they get pulled back to the center and dealt another bit of damage if they don't leave the area.

Swain can pull an immobilized enemy to him, dealing damage once and claiming a Soul Fragment.

...Are you even trying with these comparisons? Infernal Chains and Ravenous Flock are only alike in that there's a pull and damage.

Aatrox: - E - Umbral Dash: Passive: Aatrox heals for a portion of the damage he deals.

Active: Aatrox dashes, increasing his attack damage for a few seconds. Umbral Dash can store up to 2 charges and can be used simultaneously with The Darkin Blade.

Fiora: - Q - Lunge: Fiora lunges in a direction and stabs a nearby enemy, dealing physical damage and applying on-hit effects. This attack prioritizes Vitals and enemies it will kill.If this ability hits an enemy, 60% of its cooldown is refunded.

Aatrox passively has what amounts to Death's Dance, and has a two-charge storing dash that can be used in tandem with his Q.

Fiora dashes at the nearest enemy and automatically hits them.

Where's the similarities, outside of them being dashes?

Aatrox: - R - World-Ender: Aatrox unleashes his full might, becoming monstrous in size and taking flight on massive wings. As he transforms, Aatrox fears nearby minions and briefly increases his movement speed (this bonus is reactivated when out of combat).

While transformed, Aatrox increases his overall damage and gains a Blood Well that stores health over World Ender’s duration, reviving him if he takes lethal damage while in his true form.

Swain: - R - Demonic Ascension: Swain frees the demon within for 12 seconds, gaining health. Every second, he drains the 3 closest enemy champions for magic damage, healing him. After draining enough health, Swain gains the ability to cast Demonflare.

Demonflare: Swain unleashes a nova of soulfire dealing magic damage and ending his transformation.

See, I can already tell that your reason for equating these two abilities is because they get big and intimidating and start hovering over the air.

That is a pretty shallow comparison of two abilities and is a lame excuse to claim Riot's just copying existing abilities.

Aatrox gains size, increased damage, and movement speed, and the ability to revive if he takes lethal damage.

Swain gains health, drains health from nearby enemies, and can deal big AoE damage if he drains enough health.

None of these abilities are copies of other abilities.

Compare abilities, do NOT equate them.
