[DammitSinged]

_It's kinda sad that Aatrox waited years to become meta just to get him reworked 2 weeks later._

If you listen closely you can hear Riven crying in the background

[soggybiscuit]

Can you hear that? It's Hashinshin slowly losing whatever remaining portion of sanity he had left.

[antigonus]

At least be honest about it riot, Just say you removed aatrox from the game and change his name.

[WilleWalla]

I love how all of these are outdated two weeks after the release because riot can't do anything right

[buddyroo]

I never played Aatrox, but his ability to switch between healing and dealing more damage defined his kit and uniqueness; I’m surprised riot just totally got rid of that.

[Sami-jqts]

Now I just want Dark Star Aatrox. He could have a black hole instead of the heart thing on his sword. I’m gonna miss old Aatrox...

RIP Aatrox, i loved all his lines now they are ruined. Eternal pain and no victory in this rework.

I miss the "welcome to the League of Legends champion Spotlight, Featuring Aatrox, the darkin blade"

[jojo-bg]

Bring the old Aatrox back. He is as timeless as war.

I like how half of the things mentioned/shown in the video isn't on live Aatrox anymore.

1. When casting The Darkin Blade (Q) in normal cast mode the cast line looked much more appealing and more accurate than what it is in live currently.

2. Whenever Aatrox casts Infernal Chains (W) the outer thing would light up bright and now it's just a weird box that doesn't even look cool and plus in the video it looks like his Infernal Chains acts twice as faster than the live lvl 5 Infernal Chains.

3. Umbral Dash (E). When he was announced and came out people complained about his dashes and how he actually had a hard time sticking to his opponents with the dashes, but goody old shoes riot loves to listen and does the opposite of what was required. Now it's a 7 second dash at early levels so good luck keeping up with your combos unless the enemy is a bot or is actually bad at the game.

4. Umbral dash passive healing was actually so bad that he had very minimal healing before getting Death's Dance. Now that's been removed and honestly it majorly didn't affect him at all because the healing was trash in the first place and hardly noticeable.

5. He had a different auto animation when hitting a tower, it looked so bad that they got rid of it, 2 patches later it got replaced with his normal basic attack animations.

6. His ultimate World Ender would actually make Aatrox bigger, now it only gives Aatrox chicken wings which I think are edible so you can feed your opponents.

7. When casting World Ender (R) there used to be music playing for the remaining duration for the ultimate, sadly that got removed maybe one week later.

8. When pressing CTRL 5 Aatrox enables or disables his wings if they were enabled. But I don't understand why does it have to be so clunky when enabling and disabling the wings like when you first enable the wings he does 2 skips while walking or jumps in place if standing still and then the wings appear out of nowhere 4 seconds later or if the wings are disabled they just disappear like my dad 3 seconds later, they could've made it like Project Vayne ctrl 5 helmet toggle, Kaisa's helmet toggle and DJ Sona skin toggle.

Riot could've gave Aatrox more time before releasing him.

I think we all know that Riot is not proud with this rework and giving him another one or reverting him would look bad so they just made sure that at least he's playable until he was nerfedd to the ground again.
