Champion Update: Aatrox, the Darkin Blade
And the Reveal is here!
And the Reveal is here!
This doesn't look fun to play against--------------reminds me of
reveal.............i hope he doesn't completely dominate the meta either
Sort of underwhelmed to be honest, but I'm not an Aatrox player
Gameplay looks seriously clunky, and that ult looks pretty underwhelming compared to the current one.
Huh, I wants said that the description of their view of Aatrox's gameplay sounds like playing against a Dark Souls boss. And, I think it kind of fits. Especially the whole moving around and recognizing the boss's attack patterns to learn how to avoid most of their damage.
The R is probably fine in play, but honestly just visually it reminds me a bit too much of Swain's. Just seems odd since Swain came out only a few months ago and is still fresh in everyone's mind.
The preview videos are kinda odd. It says his E allows him to move while casting Q,but then they just show you how he casts Q while standing still.
Similarly the movementspeed and fear effects of the ult aren't showcased at all(also appearantly you can move while reviving,which I didn't know until I saw it in the other video below)
Though that aside I think his gameplay looks pretty decent,I really like the W and the design of the R,even though I feel like the Q is too similar to Rivens.
Well this was a disappointment and a half. VO seems ruined and he somehow has worse textures then before.
