Aatrox Rework Concept

Aatrox, the Darkin Blade

Passive: Blood Well Aatrox has a Blood Well beneath his health with 100 (+ 100 per level) (+ 10% bonus health) points. For each 42 (+ 12 per level) (+ 100% bonus AD) AD damage from his AA and abilities, he fills up the Blood Well by 5%. Each 5% grants Aatrox 6 (+ 3 per level) bonus AD and 4% (+ 1.5% per level) bonus attack speed.

If Aatrox takes lethal damage, he will revive over 3 seconds, recovering 100% current Blood Well. Upon reviving, Aatrox instantly recovers 50% of Blood Well and his revive is put on a cooldown. Upon killing an enemy champion, the cooldown is reduced by 15 seconds. This can only occur on the same enemy once every 60 seconds.

• Cooldown (Revive): 180 (- 20 at levels 6, 11, 16)

Q: The Darkin Blade Aatrox swings his greatsword in the target direction, striking enemies in a line. The Darkin Blade can then be reactivated twice within 4 seconds, with each cast refreshing the timer. The second cast strikes enemies in a cone and the third in the target area. There's a 1 second cooldown between each cast.

Each strike deals physical damage, reduced to 55% against minions.

Hitting enemies at the far end of the first two casts and the center of the third deals 50% bonus damage and knocks up enemies for 0.25 seconds, doubled to 0.5 seconds against monsters.

During The Darkin Blade, Aatrox can move, but is slowed by 25%.

• Physical Damage: 10/30/50/70/90 (+ 60/65/70/75/80% AD)
• Bonus Physical Damage: 15/45/75/105/135 (+ 90/97.5/105/112.5/120% AD)

• Width (first cast): 200
• Angle (second cast): 70°

W: Blood Thirst/Blood Price Aatrox toggles between Blood Thirst and Blood Price.

Blood Thirst: Aatrox's AA and The Darkin Blade heal him. The healing is reduced to 20% against minions.

• Heal: 15/17.5/20/22.5/25% of all damage dealt

Blood Price: Aatrox's AA and The Darkin Blade deal bonus physical damage, but he suffers damage for 60% of the bonus physical damage.

• Bonus Physical Damage: 20/40/60/80/100 (+ 30% AD)

• Price (Damage that Aatrox suffers): 12/24/36/48/60 (+ 18% AD)

• Cooldown: 3/2.5/2/1.5/1

E: Umbral Dash Aatrox dashes in the target direction.

Afterwards, Aatrox is in a Deathbringer Stance for 1.5 seconds.

Deathbringer Stance: Aatrox's next AA gains 50 bonus range and deals bonus physical damage and reduced Umbral Dash's cooldown by 3 seconds.

Umbral Dash and Deathbringer Stance reset Aatrox's AA timer.

• Bonus Physical Damage: 4/6/8/10/12% of the target's maximum health
• Target Range: 450
• Cooldown: 20/18/16/14/12

R: World Ender Aatrox unleashes his true demonic form for 10 seconds, gaining bonus movement speed, decaying by 10% of the current bonus every 0.25 seconds, and fearing nearby enemy minions, slowing them by up to 99% for 3 seconds.

While transformed, Aatrox gains increased size, bonus Blood Well and receives increased self-healing from all sources.

With each enemy champion takedown, World Ender is extended by 5 seconds, refreshing its effects, up to the original amount.

• Bonus Blood Well: 15/20/25%
• Increased Healing: 40/50/60%
