Is Aatrox sleeper OP?

KnightOfEloHell··2 votes·1,304 views

I had Mordekiaser banned in ranked, and someone took my old one trick, Olaf. So, I used my new champ Aatrox and went adc Aatrox, and carried nicely.

I've did adc Aatrox in blinds, and have never lost in bot lane.

I manage my passive and just shit 9n the adc and get super fed.

You're in bronze 5. Anything works there. No he isn't sleeper op.

You don't need to target someone's ranks.

Well in this case where it is relevant, yes I do. Where people don't know how to play the game, he is decent-ish if you get an insane lead. Go anywhere above that and he's absolute trash.

If I had said you're in bronze 5 your opinion is irrelevant, then sure that'd be unnecessary. But in this case his rank is actually entirely relevant to his success with this champion.

He said it worked bacause he's in the lowest ELO bracket, which is true.

This is also apparently only one game of data.

Every time I'm about to get out of B1 I go on a losing spree and drop to B5 in a day ;-;

Idk how to be better :(

But anyhow, Aatrox is sort of cool, his passive is tough to manage tho.

This. I could go Blitzcrank adc (yes on ad not ap!) and still carry the game by myself 1v9, absolutly everything works in B5.

It sounds like you're exaggerating but B5 is a cesspool

No... he's not a Sleeper OP. He's a champion no one really uses so people probably forgot what he does. But when you know what he does, and you fight against him, he's just all around shit.

The worlds worst hitbox for E.

A knock up that is hard to land because it has one big freaking tell and takes forever to come down not to mention how small the hitbox is for the knock up.

A passive that sounds nice on paper, but when it's triggered people just wait for you to get back up and kill you again because your passive is what makes you stronger.

You need to spend health for damage for some freaking reason.

Your early game is horrible, but your late game doesn't compensate.

Really?? Dude my early game on Aatrox is Op, but I take ignite and start w. As quints, ad reds, cdr blues, scaling hp yellows. Rush Botrk. Berserker greaves.

I play him super safe, blood price till passive is almost procced, than blood thirst, cs with AA only, and save abilities for engage. When my passive is up I'll trade, than back off. Rinse and repeat. When I play Aatrox I play super safe until my passive is almost up, and I max W first hardcore. I normally always get first blood. My early and mid is super stronk with him, but late game it falls off.

Except how often do people actually see Aatrox? And how many people have you ran into so far that seems to know how to deal with him? The moment you run into that one person who understands how the champion works, and all the flaws he comes with he -will- be disrespecting your presence.

That may change with his rework. But honestly, Ryze is probably going to get three more reworks before that ever happens.

He was good before his mini rework.

Dang, I missed it.

I feel lucky that I tend to carry with Aatrox than.

He falls off really hard late game tho. You can't get your passive stacked fast enough even with max attack speed

Early and mid I am an Aatrox GOD

But all days I am a Morde GOD
