Riot should really start treating Aatrox as a dark being with his future skins

Aatrox is the only demonic looking, dark, mysterious figure in the League and only his basic skin shows that. Justicar Aatrox is more like an angel, other his two skins make him look like a transformer and fish. Will those who like the dark side of his nature ever get a proper skin in the future? There are so many possibilities, even lore-wise. As example, you could make a Commander Aatrox, which shows him being a dark demonic knight with flags instead of wings, who is supposed to control and drive one side of war. Why does the "character-theme, will it actually fit the character" rule spread on everybody except him? He deserves it the most! http://img3.wikia.nocookie.net/__cb20150223205537/leagueoflegends/images/c/c1/Aatrox_concept_3.jpg

I agree Aatrox has so much missing. He is so underwhelming in character and performance and his background is just the same.

Aatrox: Effects & Animations Update (just some ideas for example)

Things like this has got me into a disconcerting habit of questioning Riot Game's redevelopment roadmap every time they do something that may not really be necessary nor be priority. Including Aatrox, when I think of LoL I often cannot repel my palm from resting my face with an overbearing sense of disbelief .. but I have some faith in Riot Games

Ah well...

Riot should start treating Aatrox as a champion that needs buffs.

This as well, but it's "SKINS & CHAMPION CONCEPTS".

Aatrox just needs a Blood Lord Aatrox that can fit his theme and continue the skin line as well. In terms of buffs, he needs some.

I kind of wish that he would've been part of a small-scale rework where Fiora's new ultimate was given to him. Reinvigorating the battle-lust of his allies is so perfect thematically, it boggles the mind that the Grand Duelist got this insane utility tacked on her kit while he remains an underwhelming combatant.
