Inconsistency with Aatrox lore and game voice over

So in his lore, he's essentially suicidal, trying to draw everyone and everything together for a final apocalyptic battle in which he may finally die > Raging against this injustice, he arrived at a solution that could only be born of a prisoner’s desperation. If he could not destroy the blade or free himself, then he would embrace oblivion instead.

However, he has yet to have a host strong enough to allow him to really retain his old glory, so he consumes others in the process of arriving to this apocalypse .

Here's the problem I see, if a massive problem occurs within a realistic scenario, people focus on removing that problem, setting aside disputations with each other. He only draws attention to himself by waging war against everyone, he doesn't really draw people in to fight each other. Old Aatrox would have fit this lore better but not completely, because he at least drew people together to battle.

Now you turned Aatrox into an edgy memelord in the game voice overs. It doesn't suit him, I feel like whoever wrote the lines was lazy about it. I'm not even an Aatrox fanboy, and it just feels bad.

Before : ''peace is the greatest lie of all ''

Now : "I touched the stars, and saw the glorious light of a thousand suns! Now, blinded by this elegence, how could my purpose be anything... but dark..."

Yea.. new Aatrox is the edgy memelord !

edit 1 : taunts and jokes are exactly that...they are not ment to be taken serious every champion has them even the old aatrox !

I just made a thread saying his voice overs are too shallow and stereotypically bloodthirsty demon to fit the lore.

After reading your thread it makes more sense for him too kill people so they band together to destroy him. But yeah old Aatrox voice overs showed he tried to inspire people to wage war.
