Aatrox is not a "greatsword duelist"

The hitboxes make absolutely no sense for someone who is wielding a giant two-handed greatblade. Q1s sweet spot isnt even an area where the blade lands but in front of it which makes no sense what so ever. Q2 also has the same problem. The W has nothing to do with bladework and doesnt even make thematic sense. World Ender beyond it being underwhelming to begin with also has nothing to do with his greatsword beyond a generic steroid (which was a big gripe with the original Aatrox) yet the old Ulti at least had the advantage of having activation damage. The revive is still just a waste of the champions power budget and mostly leads to you dying just after you revive. The exact same issue old Aatrox had. For all of the talk of a DS boss this feels like it was stuck together in a month and given little to no thought.

The only iteration of Aatrox I cant beat into complete inability to even farm, is Grasp of the Undying Aatrox. Ill still beat him, but I cant kill him or significantly stop him from CSing.
