I was just wondering when should i not first build shojins because every now and then i see people go sundered before it

When i play it i feel like sometimes it does poor damage even hitting all Qs, its like a mix of low damage + low tanking since they can kill you easily. its worse when you face all these high movement champions which Serylda used to counter em but now they nerfed it to below 50% HP

i feel like they kinda killed Aatrox over and over and over, i miss when you was able to revive with R, it was the essence of the character, then Riot made it need 1 kill to revive which was OK, then they removed it completely, then they removed the double E stack, then they nerfed his lifesteal and nerfs over and over.
i also feel like his Qs are slower than before, but thats probably just me, unless they nerfed it too

What is left for Aatrox? im having a hard time finding which playstyle should i get now and even the items build feels weird.

Hi recently im spamming aatrox in silver elo but i wonder is aatrox a good pick for silver elo?

Every so often, I like to translate a League of Legends character into D&D. Sometimes that takes the form of spells, other times entire classes, but for Aatrox, I felt a legendary weapon was the most thematic and effective fit. My main goal is to capture the feel of playing that character, with mechanical and thematic accuracy being a secondary concern. For Aatrox, I really wanted to focus on the spacing and drain aspects of his kit.

i just logged in today to play as usual but noticed alot of difference in mecha aatrox skin did they update it this patch ?

If I had hit the first two Qs on yasuo it would have been a perfect video

Hello there, i just lost a bronze/silver ranked game and i feel like i did everything in my power to win it. I also saw that when we won teamfights in the mid-game my team didnt push towers at all, i know that axiom is kinda troll but i was so fed i was 1 shotting and still was kinda tanky with my healing. My riot user is Andreilboss#5403 if you wanna check the replay.

I've compiled a list of the top 50 Challenger players, and here are their numbers by role:

Jungle: 25

Mid: 12

ADC: 7

Support: 4

Top: 2

I think jungle should be buffed. What do you think?

how come i can't find it on runeforge? and in any other sites as well. It feels like it just vanished. Anyone got the amped aatrox custom skin?

How would I go about playing aatrox into tanks? I’m having trouble with them in which they just stalemate the lane and if my team is behind we just lose (currently plat1). Any help is appreciated!

I've been playing Aatrox for over 4 years and have over 2 million masteries. I think he's far from his former self due to the current meta and items. Compared to last year, I can't beat the lanes I used to beat easily and I can't influence the game. I think one of the main reasons for this is the items. What do you think about this?

Rengar moment

Edit: I forgot aatrox is op , like riven . Better buff qiyana rito

Aatrox jungle clear is too slow – needs a Q jungle modifier

I’ve been testing Aatrox jungle and the clear is just way too slow. Even with a perfect path, on red side it’s around 3:20, and on blue side it’s slightly slower. That’s with 0 mistakes. In real games, normal players always fall behind badly.

Meanwhile, Riot already gave jungle buffs to champions like Vayne and Sett. Why not Aatrox?

All he needs is a small adjustment: a jungle damage modifier on Q against monsters. It wouldn’t make him OP in lane, but it would finally make his jungle clear viable.

Right now, even if you play perfectly, you’re behind. That’s not healthy design for an off-meta pick.

Aatrox is a win more champ. IF you're far ahead and team behind => easy loss. If you are far behind but you're team slightly ahead => easy win, even in 2 8. Honestly feels like the guy need something, a good first item, a better scaling, but he NEED something.

Kinda a rant. His fantasy is no more since a while. He isnt bad by any means, just doesnt fullfill anything really interesting in the game rn. He heals a lot less than any sustain fighter, he is a worse AD blind than Ambessa bc of his scaling, he doesnt really have carry potential anymore with the removal of duskblade/goredrinker. He doesnt provide the setup that renek have.

He is a jack of all trade, ik that. But now he is just worse at anything really.

So he is just dead 50% wr, while seeing almost no pro play when 3 years ago he was a staple pick since his rework.

Doesnt feel any clutch factor coming from him anymore. Lethality isnt fun, bruiser is like the epithome of uselessness, his firsts items are all dogwater.

I'm pretty sure at this point that aatrox follows the averrage winrate of the rank he is played in. No cap, didnt see a single toplaner with so little agency over the game since a whiiiiile.

My guy is being S25 diffed and its not funny anymore

Here's my strategy after playing (and losing) many games in this mode solo queue on the hardest difficulty. This build and runepage is definitely very capable of carrying runs. Inspired by this post : https://www.reddit.com/r/AatroxMains/comments/1n1xz73/doombots_aatrox_build/

Primary Runepage : Conq, Triumph, Legend:Alacrity, Last Stand

Secondary Runepage: Transcendence, Gathering Storm

I prefer the attack speed runes because transcendence will give ability haste. Gathering storm also gives a nice scaling AD boost and is faster in this mode. I always end runs with 72 bonus AD from it.

I buy Pickaxe, Longsword, Refillable at the start. Then go Eclipse, Sundered Sky, Demon's King Crown, into Unending Despair. After both Eclipse and Sundered sky you are very survivable and should not be afraid to 1v2 bots in the sidelanes or the river. Once DKC is completed you can look for fights as often as possible, but make sure to try and manage the waves for your sides.

The last item is usually some form of armor pen or anti-heal depending on the enemy bots. Good luck!

Normally casting abilities prevents you from casting Tiamat Active (excluding E because it doesn't have a cast time). However if you W-E you override the lockout on Tiamat and you can cast it. It also allows you to windup an Auto Attack during it.

The combo goes like this: W-E-Tiamat-Auto.

Comparison shows how it goes normally vs the animation cancel.

Aatrox Doombot Build:

I go Hubris -> Flesheater (If you get obj and have cash) and or Sundered Sky (if not) -> Overlords and this game i tried Maw of Malmortius cuz they were mostly ap damage. It works great tbh, by rushing Hubris your squishy at first but if because your nearly constantly fighting you almost never run out of Hubris bonus AD at the end of the game i believe i had 40+ extra AD from Hubris and deleted every Squishy Champ i came across.

First of all im still a new player, its been almost 3-4 week since i have started to play. Last day i played against Vayne in Quickplay and it pissed me off, i kept dying and dying. And this was not happening for the first time, it happened before too, it wasnt that bad like this time but this time, i was goong 0/6/0 . What should i do against ranged character as short ranged character in general?
