I hate to be that guy...

But I am extremely disappointed in Aatrox's personality and voice. He's now just another cringey evil demon that tries to be funny, exactly the same as Rhaast. Old Aatrox was more unique, interesting, and cool in every way possible. Don't get me wrong, I think his visuals look good(maybe could use some more detail), but his voice is just awful. Sadly at this point the recording is done and there's no chance it will be changed. RIP real Aatrox, it's Gangplank/Galio all over again.

You are not the only one that is very very disappointed in the new Aatrox he lost his wisdom that came with many battles he lost his calm and wise quotes now he is just screaming yelling I kill come come come kill kill. Like how do you agree on giving the green light on that like what the...ALSO His new voice doesn't match his walking animation..He is walking slowly step by step his guard is up ready for his next dual...While his VO is all about aggression screams. Cliche crazy warrior lines and he trying to be like funny idk...I really don't know what else to say...

Can't please everyone. I'm hyped. I love his voice and his quotes. Its the present battle that he's involved in anyway, not going around like some old wiseman gathering lil children around the fire and telling tales. Hes in it.

"Oh noes a demon of war bellowing battle cries at the enemy." Cmon now... He's awesome!

"it's Gangplank/Galio all over again." Couldn't have said it better myself.

You've only seen his unique interactions so far...

Gangplank s old character was super contradictory to his old lore. His bio describes him as a kid who's kicked around his whole life by his father to condition him into becoming a murderous cutthroat so he can take over as ruler of the dread fleet, which he does so by stabbing his father in the back as soon as he comes of age. And yet when you queued up as gp the first thing you hear is 'YAR HAR FIDDLDY DEE.' Yeah they did a complete 360 with him, but his character didn't even match his bio and what they intended to begin with.

He literally sounds like Viktor. Not only the same VA, but the same voice changer only pitched a little higher. The charackter is also quite similar in a way.

His lines also have theis weird pauses in between them. Imagine someone talking to you like: "I am Aatrox.................................. Meet your doom................................. Today."

His lines appeaar to be 80% of players thoughts on the champion he interacts with and some lines seem to be mixed up, because they make no sense. I can't come up with the line, but it was something like: "I am not scared of you................. You will lose............. Get crushed!" or "Hi there................................... Now you die!" Wow! Much creative... Why even add an interaction when obviously have no idea what to write?

Why turn the incernation of war into a arrogant one liner spitting god hater? He is like Crocker from Fairly odd parents... "I know their team includes.... GOOOOOOOODS!"

do any of you main aatrox though?

Theyre the four horseman.

Aatrox is war. Rhaast is death. Varus is plague. The next will be famine. The last will be the lamb that broke their seals.

War is not calm and calculating.

War is violent and bloody. People get caught up in the passion and bloodlust. War is vengeful and irrational. War is terrifying. But not in a slow creepy way, in a shocking and disturbing way.

It's still on PBE so his visuals can still change.

VelvetCrotch6/14/2018, 12:38:55 AM1 votes

well he fits now much more to Rhaast and his attitude. but yeah his accent and his interactions are not the best. even i really like his new visual design and the direction of his new kit.

While I do love his old VO, I enjoy the new one aswell. His energy and passion for mass murder is entertaining and believable.
