The main problem with Aatrox is that you can attack him midjump. So if he jumps in the air for his slam and Yasuo throws his toranado, hes not going anywhere. If he jumps in the air, and poppy hits him... hes dead... I mean when he came out he was a good champ, but there are just so many champs that can just destroy him if he even attempts to use his gap closer that he is basically just a bad pick against most teams. He is not a tank, he is basically a bruiser... hes not tanky but he doesn't focus only on attack, he is like a hybrid. When people ask for a rework they mean to rework his moves so he can actually engage and fight people, because against most champs, he just cant do much.
