Changing a charachters personality and playstyle to such a degree that it isnt his old self, making his voice acting vastly diffrent and even taking his signature left handedness. Aatrox rework was a rework that can be described as a ''Butchering'', even tho it gave other people a charachter they might like; It took from Aatrox players that magnificent, calm, graceful, poetic, warrior that was intelligent and highly capable of even manipulating people into going to war. It also took our mode switching Auto Attack centered hero and didnt even cared about all the hatred coming from Aatrox players. This and the people responsible for this should not be forgotten, we should pray that people that touched this hero and destroyed him for just their liking ( Cause his playerbase was just wanting a visual upgrade) does not touch another hero. Oh and lets not even start to compare those ''Banner Wings'' of the new one, they look like pieces of paper. I hope my dear summoners that we do not face a massacre like this, people who did this so called ''Rework'' should apologize from old Aatrox players for oblitirating our hero.

I'll say it again as I've said it before: Aatrox's old playerbase were just people who didn't like to be mainstream and pick Xin Zhao.

Because old Aatrox was just a worse Xin in every single way. Every strength he had outside of his base-stat-gimping gimmick, Xin matched but better.

You have a champion in the style of old Aatrox. His name is Xin Zhao.

Aatrox's rework wasn't FOR the people who played him. No rework should be for the people who like the current iteration of a champion. Because what they like has flaws that don't mesh well with the current game. Reworks should extend a champion's playerbase and usability, and Aatrox's did just that by giving him a new, unique kit.

I'm not mad. New Aatrox is way more interesting in the story and character department and while gameplay changes are up to individual opinion at least he's more than an auto attacking stat dump trash fire like he used to be.

New Aatrox is pretty okay on a kit level. He's got some cool mechanics. However it's unbearable listening to the voice acting on this guy. Every line is really a betrayal of the old character. He just yells every line. There's nothing mysterious about a red guy who screams expositional dialogue. He's got about as much character depth as the kool aid man.
