A possible solution for Aatrox's rework

There are many people who are complaining about Aatrox's rework. They want Riot to revert the rework, but I have a feeling that it's not gonna happen. So I have a possible solution about this matter . . .

Can't Riot just release the old version of Aatrox as a new champion? [zombie-brand-clap] I know it sounds bad and you might be making a face similar to the emoji above, but hear me out. The reworked Aatrox is about 90% different from the old version, so if Riot just changes his design slightly, gives him a new name, and preserves the concept of 'Darkin', it might work. It might give an opportunity for Riot to explore more about Darkins by adding some voicelines to this 'new champion', and the old Aatrox mains would be happy because they could play their old Aatrox again.

I know, it sounds stupid, but this is the only way to please the new Aatrox mains and the old Aatrox mains.

Riot reworked him because his kit was massively problematic and completely unfixable. His kit is not coming back at all. Not as a revert, not as a separate champion. His kit is gone, and will stay gone. The only possible way I can think of for that to happen is if a massive number of people (Like, a solid 30% of all League players globally) ask for it to happen and none of the other 70% objected.

Reworks happen for more than just people who play the champion. It's for everyone in League.
