Mini rework Aatrox's passive

sagabeast·Sep 7, 2018·0 votes·1,102 views

They should have gave him his (blood price) W and the Old AD/AS steriod for a passive and just make his current Q become faster based on Attack speed. They took a melee carry/split push god and made him into a immobile CC bot. The problem with the new Aatrox is that even though you can do absurd damage with Q and kill the whole team you are way to slow at taking towers, so you could ACE their team and get nothing out of that. Which I hate,at least old Aatrox could extend a lead once he manages to come out on top in a TF, after the fight he just spams his Q (dark flight) to cover distance quickly and take towers fast with triforce. The new Aatrox just doesnt have that capability.

He's not designed to be a split-pusher anymore, and giving a Caster-type champion Attack Speed stats is just senseless af.

Yeah but how do I taker towers after I win the teamfight? What if I'm the only one alive? The old Aatrox could take towers quickly. the new Aatrox can't even take towers by himself even when the enemy team has 40sec death timers I'm unable to take one tower fast enough before they respawn. That's a really huge problem that the previous Aatrox didn't have. It's like riot wants to just get rid of all Melee attackers in the game and replace everything with skill shots. What's next are they going to rework jax and make him an AD caster too? They basically made a new champion that has a GA for an Ult.

Old Aatrox was designed as an AS duelist, new Aatrox isn't. Jax is also an AS duelist, Aatrox isn't. You're just going to have to use whatever bonus AD you have from items & E after killing your lane opponent. New Aatrox is a lot more useful & has better presence than old Aatrox, where changing any sort of numbers on old Aatrox can mean serious bad balancing issues, and by new Aatrox being useful, it doesn't always has to mean how fast he can take down turrets. If you're so pent up on wanting to kill turrets faster, take Demolish Rune next time.

And as stated as R107 Games, not every champions is designed to kill enemies & being a powerful tower killer at the same time. It's similar as to how Yorick is designed as a powerful split-pusher, but a terrible team fighter at the same time.

Aatrox is useless now, before he could actually carry, why are rioters ignoring the Old Aatrox mains? This is the first time a champions identity was so completely changed to the point that it might as well be a new champion. The rework is fail. Ever since the rework the Aatroxmains SubReddit has been in chaos everyday someone is complaining about the rework and even the developer of the new Aatrox is purposely avoiding us, calling us "unhelpful" he just can't accept people criticizing his work. It's sucks that I put years of dedication to learning the champion just so he can be altered in to somthing that is totatly not the champion that i played before, look at the swain rework, that was a success he basiclly has the same abilities that the Old swain had while making him better at the same time.

Some champions don't deal much damage to towers. This isn't specific to aatrox. Akali Darius Garen Gangplank JarvanIV Mordekaiser Riven Rumble fucking etc. Why should aatrox be an exemption?

What?! Almost Every chamipon you mentioned has an auto attack reset that can be used on towers, garen can abuse tri force and take towers with his Q, darius has an Auto rest with W and can also abuse sheen, mord can use his Q on towers, GP passive does true damage to turrets, riven gets bonus AD when she cast an ability, akali builds straight AP so she can take towers since your AP replaces your Attack damage when hiting towers, what the hell are you smoking? Every champion you mentioned with exception of maybe rumble can abuse sheen and take towers faster than Aatrox, you are just nub who got destroyed by the previous Aatrox probably, so thats why you disagree.

Yeah but tri force is usless on new aatrox every other champion that you mentioned can utilize atrack speed and mana, you cant build tri force and deal damage in team fights because it's not black cleaver. You are completely missing the point, I shouldn't have to build a sub optimal build just to deal damage to turrets
