Aatrox

this champAatrox has been around since forever, just something...make him "playable" outside of a wacky pick like Urgot Urgot or Gragas Gragas used to be...

just a few suggestions , minor or lesser things that could be done to make him more viable...

  1. passive --- blood well --- its mostly fine as is but, maybe don't COMPLETELY empty it on use? maybe just send it on the cooldown and drain maybe....half of it? at most...

  2. Q --- dark flight --- this ability is...meh...at best right now...i understand knock up is brutal but lets either make it have a faster cast time, or a slightly larger knock up radius. or perhaps we could just remove the knock up circle and add a slow to those caught in the area :o

  3. W --- blood thirst/blood price i see no problem with this skill...its fine as far as i can think. :)

  4. E --- blades of torment --- why not have him swing the sword and preform a mid range wave that damages and slows? or perhaps rework this skill all together... i feel maybe a lunge type skill could work out, maybe a chargeable one :/ perhaps just speeding up the current abilities move speed would work?

  5. R --- massacre --- cool in concept...doesn't work out for him... its the only ability with no AD scaling that Aatrox Aatrox has... only AP scaling? and honestly, its a lack luster ult anyways... perhaps a rework like what Zac Zacs ult got would work out here :) if no rework then what about like...+30% AD scaling? or perhaps a passive ult, scoring kills feeds his blade and thus grants him life steal per stack? (example --- 1 stack per champ kill, 1 stack= 5% life steal, max 5 stacks) and when he pops ult all stacks are consumed to apply some affect or bonus like +30 AD per stack consumed? he could then get kills with his ult and get 1 or 2 stacks back :D maybe not life steal, maybe AP or attack speed or maybe even movement speed :o

anyways these are my thoughts on his current kit and what "could" be done to make him a bit better... lemme hear y'all s suggestions to :D

They are doing a full rework some time this year on Aatrox as they announced in one of their letters.
