As much as I loved the rework, I still hate how Aatrox doesn't really have a new joke animation

Regardless on what your thoughts are on the new Aatrox, either in gameplay or story, I loved it. I felt it was a good change from a story and character standpoint and gameplay I thought he was more exciting than just that champ that autos and sustains with wonky abilities.

But the one thing that has still bugged me is that Riot still didn't bother to change what his joke animation is, let alone actually give him separate jokes. It's still his old animation of inspecting his sword and swinging it down. No dialogue, nothing new, it's nothing. I still don't understand why nothing was added. They really couldn't add anything? It's just weird.

This may not be relevant anymore or people don't care now, I don't know. I just still hate the fact that this is a thing and feels so...out of place.

The joke animation has always bothered me, also.

And if you're looking for his joke lines, they're on his taunt. According to the people that worked on the rework the writer chose for the lines to be this way, but I don't see how that's stopping them from moving his current 'taunt' lines to his joke and just put a few quotes he already has onto his taunt, or just make it silent instead.
