If you are laning vs a ranged player who has a lot of poke, or is a good counter to you, leveling your E first can be extremely beneficial for many reasons
a: It provides you ranged poke against your enemy, with enough range that counter poke isn't a huge deal b: it provides you a safe way to farm without fear of enemys c: when you level it, the slow % increases allowing you to get out of bad situations more easily
another good tip is never turn his W to deal damage, you always want the life steal since the bonus damage is rarely needed, and aatrox is more of an AD lifedrain tank to begin with
Landing an E makes hitting the enemy with the middle of your Q a lot easier ( the middle circle makes you deal more damage )
Don't ult until you are ontop of an enemy, it does a radius AOE and gives you enough range to beat on them as they try running away
Botrk is a MUST on aatrox due to his ults attack speed, and his amazing chase ability
Maw of malmortious ( spell check ) is another godly item on him, aatrox thrives on items like that which give high AD, and defensive benefits.
Getting a GA as your 3rd / 4th item allows you to be ridiculously durable, and have 2 revives making you one of the best teamfight duelers around, especially with the built in life steal.
Don't always use your Q to chase enemys, sometimes you wanna save your Q for escapes and just use your E to stick to the enemys
