A creative way to reuse Aatrox's revive voice lines.

Angyal·Nov 8, 2019·25 votes·13,965 views

With the removal of Aatrox's Revive mechanic, there are a perfectly solid bunch of voice lines that are not being used due to how powerful and overbearing his revive was in game, and it would be a shame not to hear them. So the two ways that I see these voice lines being implemented are as follows:

Whenever Aatrox gets a kill and extends the duration of World-Ender.

When the duration of World-Ender ends and Aatrox is still alive.

Not only would this give the person who is playing Aatrox more immersion, it would also be using voice lines that were meant to be in the game. Thoughts?

Edit: One of the comments point out that the voice lines are attached to both Zilean"s ult and Guardian Angel. However, I still stand by the fact that the voice lines could be use in a more intuitive way due to how rarely Zilean is played and how niche Guardian Angel is.

I love it. I think this should be done for quite a few champions.

There are a litany of unused voice lines that could really be appropriate in SR. Renekton for example has a number of 'new' lines for the Ascension game mode, though we never get to hear them anymore. They would serve well placed into his gameplay.

I just took a look at those voice lines, those would be pretty cool to add them into game. Honestly they could be placed anywhere and they would work out pretty well.

When item 3026 triggers. Also give him secret 1% cdr for GA

He still needs taunt voice lines, maybe stick em there

Or bring back his revive and revive him from that 47% winrate he is currently at. That could also be a creative way to bring em back

I'd definitely prefer this to having them on resurrection items and spells.

I thought about putting those voice lines on GA, but that is a very niche and is often built as the last item, so I don't think that the voice lines would not be heard all that much. I still stand by putting the voice lines on either of the ideas I posted.

The thing is they already are coded to trigger on all resurrection effects like GA or Zilean R, I didn't post that as a suggestion. The slowed down death animation when you're resurrecting makes the lines sound 10 times less epic, that's why I literally want them to trigger on anything else (some would work for his respawn as well if revive is truly gone for good).

doesnt he still use those voice lines when he revives via GA or zilean ult

AngyalNov 8, 20193 votes

From what I have seen, no he does not. They could work with GA too, but I think the voice lines would get more usage out of World Ender personally.

Literally all they need to do is take two or three of his revive voice lines and put them on his taunt emote, then move the voice lines that are currently on his taunt and put them on his joke emote.

Right now Aatrox has silly voice lines on his taunt and no voice lines on his joke. This would be a simple solution and I cannot fathom how almost a year and a half later, Aatrox still does not have a proper joke emote or taunt voice lines.

Guys, he uses the revival voice lines not exclusive to his old revival mechanic. Zilean and item 3026 trigger the voice lines

AngyalNov 8, 20191 votes

Don't you think that's incredibly niche though? GA is a last item pick up with a huge cool down between revives. And how often do you see Zilean played in a game? I would think that those voice lines could be put to better use elsewhere.
