#will riot finally nerf aatrox even more after seeing how disgusting he was at worlds???
1 messages · Page 1 of 1 (latest)
Why not play the champ ur self for free lp then
Aatrox is pretty strong but people forget he’s already been indirectly nerfed and pro play == soloQ,
People will complain that trox is broken, play him, go 0/9, then still insist he needs nerfs
that argument is so flawed but it’s ok 😭
any coping non aatrox mains thoughts?
i dont play aatrox and hate him but you just have a horrible take 😭
oh really was that why he had a 100 percent pick or ban rate in worlds
and has the highest pick and ban rate in solo Q for months
obviously you are not an aatrox main because aatrox mains even want him nerfed because they agree that he is too overpowered
so people are banning him to the point they cant play their favorite champ
so, tell me, how is my take horrible?
when you literally have and gave the "horrible take" 😂
im waiting bud
dude lost his mental and his typing to himself
guarantee you that youre not hardstuck bc aatrox needs a nerf. Theyve already nerfed him AND his mythic item Eclipse. If you cant dodge skillshots that sounds like a skill issue
yes, insult the person instead of the argument 😂
good argumentation and debate skills
yes, so is Ryze but they balance around both competitive and solo Q
Ryze has his horrible wr in solo Q not because the champ is bad but because he has to be balanced for both
the issue with Aatrox is
his wr is too high to be considered balanced
any other point you wanna touch on?
Trox is good I ain’t denying it
But I know full well half the people complaining about him couldn’t play him for shit
this dude always complains, i waas in a voice with him awhile ago
only thing he did was cry so he falls into that category
Always one of em
thats funny hes trying to attack the argumentor instead of the argument again. Another funny thing is ive never been in a vc with shonen hero before even though hes now trying to lie that he has. Kind of a loser move lol
Also, Azir has a 45 percent wr in solo Q which kind of proves my point not yours
hey shonen im actually in vc rn if you wanna join and lets see if what you accused me of doing is true
Alright children, behave.
Yes, trox is strong, but he isn’t someone anyone can pick up and do well with.
On top of that, he’s been nerfed so many times it’s hard to nerf anything on him without going overboard.
Nerf his sweet spots? He doesn’t have the damage to pick fights. Hit his healing? He’ll never survive long enough to deal his damage. Murder his range? God forbid that, he’s still a juggernaut, his range is already pretty short
What else do they hit without pushing him into obsoletion?
im just having a friendly debate LOL he was the one getting all butt hurt and tried to get personal by attacking me instead of the arguments
And has the audacity to make up lies lmao
how cringe
dude are you okay?
yes, wby?
Then debate and stop caring so much about him.
you got an actual argument?
you didnt like the responses on your thread
Quit fighting you children
calling everyone that disagreed with you as coping so i just told you that you had a bad take
thats what im trynna do but all he does is throws insults, lies, then asks if im okay lmao
and now youre typing into the abyss
yesm what is this bad take lmao?
please dont nerf my glacial aatrox support bro
Then be the better man.
Stop caring so much
You’re the one feeding into it
i mean thats probably what im gonna do he doesnt seem intelligent enough to be bothered with tbh
let him keep crying, its indicative of who he is
You both seem to care more about bickering than Aatrox’s strength
imagine thinking its crying when you want to have an opinion XD
Then fight somewhere else, keep the thread on topic
There will always be strong champions in meta. Aatrox is one of those right now. They already nerfed him and his mythic item.
if you cant beat him then it sounds like you need to perma ban in draft. Otherwise dont complain
It’s hard to nerf him in any meaningful way without pushing him into obsoletion. They’ve already nerfed so much on him, last time they nerfed his damage his general strength was crippled, and they had to buff him a few months later to be playable again.
i can complain if i want wtf lol who are you to tell me what i can or cant complain about
the audacity of this cringe kid lol
And here they go again…
tries his hardest to have the last word or be one up someone
this guy wants aatrox to be unplayable is the problem. Aatrox has a lot of dmg but what makes him good is because he has a lot of sustain. The counterbalance to aatrox is his dmg comes from landing Qs
You two are insufferable
revert previous hp buff and buff grievous items
OR
reduce base dmg + add compensate slow buff on w by 5%
bc aatrox has 3 knockups, good cc, safe laning, and a pull
bad lategame but pro games never last that long
really good teamfighter
its a champion issue
base kit
u cannot nerf that wo nerfing it into oblivion
its another akali problem
They cannot with any reasonable conscience buff antiheal just to punish Aatrox, that hurts more than Aatrox.
Aatrox’s healing isn’t even the biggest issue the biggest issue is he buys dirk and he 1 shots u with an almost undodgeable combo if he plays correctly lol
I play Aatrox myself and the most you can do is reduce non-sweetspot damage.
I've said this all when #953796890095411281 was a thing and that Aatrox is a balance nightmare
because the moment he's strong pro players will pick ban him, which is exactly what happened this Worlds
...however, the only times he dies is if he misplays or gets fucked over by CC or caught out
Q1 sweet spot is tiny. Think fast chucklenuts, and keep a wave between you and him
the problem with Aatrox is that his kit just works too well in pro
the only reason why he wasn't picked before was because many other champs outclassed him
now that they're gone Aatrox is free to go and rampage Worlds
Listen I know it’s a rancid take but y’all complain about how good trox is and then you go 0/9 because you can’t perform any of his combos or hit a sweet spot for shit.
Trox’s weakness is his harsh skill floor, followed by an even higher ceiling
which is funny because in last season people are complaining that he's too weak
not to mention the mass amounts of "gigachad Aatrox" shit there was
I mean he had a spot where he felt rough because they nerfed his damage
now people are calling Aatrox players virgin meta abusers
yeah but it's funny
there definitely was a moment in last season where he was weak, but far from being useless
Hey what do you know, they did nerf trox, and what happened? He felt like shit to play, so what happened? you all complained, and what did that make Riot do? Buff him again.
my problem was that in last season the majority of Aatrox players were shit and there wasn't a popular Aatrox player to look up to since Hash fell off
now Nayil is here
Weak and useless are different, but this community could care less
Everyone’s champ but the champ you’re playing is garbage or broken
also remember that people only care about similarities and throw differences out the window regarding new champions
Ksante is just fat Yasuo because he has a Q3 knockup, a defensive W, a dash E, and a “throw myself behind them” R
Aatrox is just too popular now for a bunch of reasons, and I'm mostly pointing it to Nayil
since he has a Youtube channel now and is appearing in shit like Synapse more often now
which means people are taking notes from him and alongside making the Eclipse Cleaver build possible
I'm not sure if this is making any sense, and all I'm saying is that people who think Aatrox needs a nerf were the same people who wanted buffs to Aatrox
or people who thought Aatrox is weak and mega useless because they can't play him last seasson
aatrox WAS nerfed after worlds
worlds was only played on 12.18 and aatrox got nerfed sometime after
it was just a placebo nerf tho
¯_(ツ)_/¯
Aatrox is getting a worlds skin, and knowing Rito games, they want to keep milking LoL's titties
so he may not get a nerf
xd
Aatrox will get a nerf in due time, but like I’ve said, they’re reluctant to nerf him because last time they gave him a serious nerf it shifted him right into obsolescence. The needle in which they need to balance Aatrox on is thin
And you fuckers screaming broken keep shaking it
and people will cry that he's too weak and needs to be buffed
essentially creating a loophole
he was most balanced after Q 10% increase imo
The needle they need to balance him on is surgical-grade, and it doesn’t help when all people do is shake riots arm
thus, as I keep iterating, making him a balance nightmare
his kit is screaming to be fucked over one way or another
I mean he’s not a problem with goredrinker - eclipse just is too good on him
Even in a version of the game where assassins are the weakest they’ve been in a bit, they still manage to cause issues through their items.
Damage and survivability is a dangerous combo, and eclipse offers a lot of it
which also is perfect for Aatrox
goredrinker has become so shit for Aatrox that we're going Eclipse Cleaver now
because the the damage you get from Eclipse also translates to the healing you get, which you can count as in-combat survivability
More omnivamp doesn’t hurt either.
Aatrox has 3 CC abilities that are also his main damaging abilities, which is also AOE
that alone is just perfect Pro Play top laner material
I'm surprised that people are surprised when he's pick ban in pro play now
He’s been a presence in every major tournament for as long as I remember. The perfect expression of a high-skill, high reward toplaner.
Aatrox will only work as well as you can play him, but if you can play him well he will never let you down.
That’s half of why i rag on people who rag on Trox. Half of em will never play him, and half of what’s left will and will play him like absolute dogshit.
Well no one complains about a champ if someone plays shit lol
You put too much faith into this community.
the real cancer is yuumi
Casual reminder the only people who think ADC’s are underperforming are ADC players.
Yuumi didn’t win worlds. That’s why people are complaining.
Kingen’s Trox was a huge part of why DRX won, that’s what’s got underwear in knots.
T1 fans angry their team lost, most of em 
Not angry just heartbroken
I wouldn’t have had the finals any other way
Neck and neck between an e-sports Titan and the underdog of the finals, and the underdog takes it by a hair.
I'm pretty sure they are going to nerf Aatrox and Yuumi lol
Since they were both the most highest ban rate %
I remember playing aatrox without knowing his e could be used with q and still carrying lol
but his passive heals him only 80% now 
bad argument
can almost guarantee if aatrox wasn't a hard champ, his wr would be 52-54% atm, and if he stayed the same as he is, he would be getting these wr as well if you take out all the shitters who do try to first time him and do either poorly or win bc the champ is so good rn
a champ having a consistent 40% br for like 3 patches while also maintaining a wr around 50% isn't a good thing
aatrox is still slightly too strong imo
but what i think is that they should nerf him for now, not too much but a bit more, and then later on nerf/balance AD fighter items and then buff him again
he gets 100% value from some items and its ridiculous how strong those items are, but if you change them for aatrox you mess up the entire top lane balance
imo his mid-to-late game scaling is a bit too much, he dominates way too easy right now
riot should just do what they always do 🤓 completely gut them and then balance properly 🤓
I mean knowing riot if they EVER actually nerf aatrox they will completely ruin the champ in 2 patches by nerfing him directly, then nerf his items, then leave him there for 10 patches until extremely overbuffing him in a way that was completely unrelated to any complaints that people had about him
Have them go the mini-rework way and first make him mega broken and then absolutely useless the next patch until s13
Not preseason^
make his spells narrower so you can dodge them
thus requiring more skill for aatrox to hit while still being powerful
You wanna make Q1 even smaller? You’ll never land it consistently.
well thats the point, keep his damage and healing but make him more skillful to play
stupid change
just hit his survivability and buff goredrinker so the item isn't dogshit
and congrats u fixed aatrox
Skill expression doesn't balance a character's strength. Hitting his survivability while not making him extremely fragile is the proper change
He is kinda skilful tho, he is strong but not the easiest
Good luck playing Aatrox against someone who knows their match ups
aatrox is a difficult champ
entire reason his wr hasn't skyrocketed, like i said earlier
This is beyond a matter of skillful, if they go too far, some of his abilities will simply become too difficult to land. Q1 sweetspot is already tiny, and Q3 sweetspot isn’t much bigger. To make either any smaller would cripple Aatrox’s ability to deal damage harder than just simply reducing sweetspot damage
W AoE looks imposing, but it’s fairly easy to walk out of if you go any direction but away from Trox.
They will not nerf him because he will get a worlds skin
i asked phlox on his stream and his reponse was, "i don't see why would we"
so no probably not
^^ he heals a little too much 🙈
this had probably been explained to you already but worlds was played on patch 12.18, on that patch aatrox was one the strongest top laners in the game. Its 12.21 now and he has been since nerfed already (more significantly than most people realize) Currently at plat+ globally aatrox has a sub 50% wr at 49% and is A tier according to u.gg which is former shell of what he was on the worlds patch and aatrox should be left alone or the champ will be back to being dogshit
wr doesnt really mean anything if ur not gonna account for pr/br
ban rate is soloq doesnt really mean anything as people will ban what counters their onetricks, hate playing agaisnt etc and for pick rate i think a lot of people just picked the champ up (including me) and have realized how fun he is
he has a 13% pr and 37% br in plat+ (d2+ is a shitshow on u.gg considering theyre recommending goredrinker)
also the only way aatrox is should ever get nerfed for the for seeable future would be to buff grev woulds but riot would never do that as they would be admitting the durability patch was a failure
masters+ its 16% pr and 35% br
hes still a good champion and the br has been steadily decreasing
i think 12.20 was like 45%
what if they made it so his Q does more damage to single target like karthus?
Its ok bro
He got his E passive nerfed
his wr fell 20%
XDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDD
that champ is unreal
Is that the best way to nerf him though
that would ruin the point of him being a teamfighting skirmisher
although it could work, it would just incentivize people to perma 1v1 splitpush
which is worse because he has already shit splitpush
can those roles even work together without him being super mid at all points in the game, they have opposite jobs
aatrox is powerful, I main him myself and I have for around a year and a half now. Playing aatrox for so long has not only helped my wr go up but also taught me how to fight him. aatrox's unique playstyle and hyper carry potential are scary. all champs deserve to be good and I think aatrox got his spotlight finally after being shit on for all these years and not even being considered a champion to most. Aatrox has insane healing Jae, but his whole purpose of drain taking is up to the skin of the person who uses him. Aatrox just like everyone legends has its weaknesses. mind I also add he does 0 true damage. Unlike Half of the top laners in league.
if you wanna beat a aatrox lane, levels 1 - 3 are your best option first back executioners calling.
no, its the fact that he can out tank the tanks and out heal the healers and out damage the damage dealers
even if he loses lane and goes 0-8 he still will become a monster
that is not healthy for the game
i think aatrox should be viable but its definitely not healthy for the game with the way he is doing it
well in my own opinion, when I put a aatrox down he doesn't get back up
but I also lock in nasus when I see a aatrox
or an ornn

comebacks are possible, but aatrox's damage is minuscule is what im saying
btw in that clip of t1 playing aatrox he misses most of his q lol
you only need to hit your q's early game
my best example is irelia needing to hit her stun late
she doesn't she just bursts you down regardless.
i mean...do you not see the issue with that clip?
i understand and get you want aatrox to be in a state where hes not dog shit but cmon lol
gatta go shopping buddy ill be right back
but my point is
people who say aatrox is good normally don't play him
I put a lot of work into maining him to win.
not to lose
nobody is saying that he is bad
people are saying that he is too op
and his ban percent shows it
I think his ban rate is more of new players not being able to deal with it and losing lane to him
but the only reason I dont lose lane to him is because i play him
if they nerf aatrox how will he fight, as I mentioned
nasus fiora
ornn
darius
jax
gnar
he will be obliterated
she has an insane wr for her pick rate rn
k brb nice talk
yo im back wassup

the aatrox was 3 levels ahead of most of the enemy team, I personally think he should be boss raiding as any top should
you already know if renekton did this he'd be gutted with 20 nerfs
"its in aatrox's design to be a drain tanker" -riot's excuse
renekton isnt supposed to drain tank, but he can still heal a lot
you cant compare them
correct, renekton is balanced around his very strong early game and not as good late game, aatrox however scales throughout the game spiking with 3-5 items
if renekton did that it would clearly mean his purpose as a champ is not being fulfilled
you say that while aatrox plays as a better lane bully, tank, healer, support, battlemage, enchanter, adc, assassin than renekton ever could
aatrox does not have nearly as good a lane as renekton
not true at all
bacon do you play aatrox?
aatrox base ad is literally like 10 ad less than renekton's btw
uh
what
i don’t see how that matters
tank aatrox and support aatrox is full troll
like should be bannable
renektons kit is like 100x better early than aatrox
you claim renekton is a lane bully so he's not suppose to scale, yet aatrox can also be just as much as a lane bully?
aatrox damage = healing, tank shits on his purpose
its not thou?
also you're very right bacon aatrox is a lane bully
aatrox has so much less cd in the early game
renekton and aatrox’s early game is not comparable
it is thou
bullshit
10 seconds on q, 25 on w and 8 on e
15 w*
14 seconds on q
ok my b i was guessing
renekton cd 8 on q, 16 on w and 17 on e im pretty sure
yeah, if aatrox misses a combo hes dead
this is just untrue
no
no it’s not
if aatrox miss plays the early game his lane is fucked
his cooldowns are so short it wont matter if he misses he can just kite it out
aatrox players put everything into one combo or play back
and if they play back they get fucked late
and either way you pick renekton to get your jungler ahead and you pick aatrox to scale yourself
by the time he gets 3 q's out on aatrox his cd is more like 5 seconds on q
so ofc if renekton did what the aatrox did, renekton would be nerfed
what?
this is just untrue aswell
no it’s not lmfao
bacon do you play aatrox yourself?
aatrox q is 8 sec, but its on a recast timer?
no its 14 if u use all 3
you pick renekton into weak early laners so you can dive with jg after slow pushing into crashing 2 waves
and by the time he finishes recasting all his q's he hast like 5 sec left
what?
the whole point of renekton is to make enemy top obsolete and ur jg really ahead
dude as i said, its 14 seconds when hes done the combo
and his w hasd the same timer, its at level 4 when you should actually fear aatrox
end of discussion, renekton is early game and to carry ur jg, aatrox is to survive and scale

Thank you for watching!
Did you learn something n...
its on a 12 sec cooldown level 1
??
.
not at all true
holy fuck
renekton can carry by himself, aatrox does not need to scale
both are just untrue
ur delusional
i cant
goodbye
👍 cya nothing of value was lost
lol
lemme go intro practice to show u the exact cooldowns when a level 1 combo is done "if a level one combo is even possible"
I think people need to get better at the matchup personally
i never see people even try to side step my q's they just eat them and lose and cry
yeah end of q combo is 14 seconds level one
aatrox's level one is one of the weakest in the game lol.
level one is when u should be making trades with him
there will never be a scenario where you will land all 3 q's level 1 unless your opponent just stands still
plus his q does close to 0 damage level 1
so why would you ever use it
not true
darius matchup
land all 3 q's everytime promise
level 1
no
??????????
lol u dont wanna flash to kill a aatrox
yes?
that idea is beyond dumb
you're talking about a level 1 cheese
save ur flash to escape his w if u dont have ghost or u will lose
why would you not use flash
yes i am
i mean u can all in a aatrox if he over extends but im talking about a skilled aatrox
that is just dumb to let him hit his sweetspot 3rd q is like throwing an ff vote
level one weakness
a skilled aatrox wouldnt throw out 3 q's against a darius level 1 like?? HUH????
im actually challenger 1050 lp 
i do and i don't lose to darius
im gold thank you 🤓
i will out damage him if i land all 3
then you havent played against a darius main before
in silver?
no it was aram 1v1
normal shit talk top lane
and no we didnt use healing
so in my opinion its valid
anyway what im trying to say is aatrox is easy to beat if you know how his champion works
if you dont play aatrox and u just brainfuck yourself all game you will always lose
tbh I don't think he needs too big of a nerf, maybe shift some of his power out of lane phase and into mid/late game just to open up counterplay vs a good aatrox but otherwise hes balanced for solo que. pro play is hard to compare because weve seen Akali be 43% winrate in solo que level bad yet having a 90% prescence in pro play.
this is riot we're talking about they're gonna leave it till the next worlds to nerf him so yeah
Its not like trox didn’t immediately see a nerf after worlds or anything that’s actually dropped his winrate pretty substantially
his wr is still above 50% with highest pr top and banrate
and thats WITH one of his worst matchups, fiora, also being one of highest pickrate tops right now and at her strongest in a long while with new rav hydra and shojin
i think ppl claiming that hes not too strong just because some players are first-timing him and failing just because they know hes strong doesnt deny that he is in fact too strong as a champ
hes not an auto-win pick but that shouldnt have to be the standard for warranting some nerfs
i think hes getting nerfs anyways tho
I’m not claiming he ain’t strong I’m just saying “ease off poor Trox, he sees more nerfs than he does buffs, period”
for good reason
He’s the McCree of this game. Nerf after nerf and he’s still a serious threat.
that isnt a good thing
But they do need to be delicate with him, because as the past has proven, drastic changes to his tools make him nigh unplayable.
Dis used to have it as his tag: Aatrox is a balance nightmare.
I've pointed out good lord how many reasons why his kit is a Pro Top Laners dream
worse is that kit is applicable to SoloQ too with a little more inconsistency
because of this, his kit is a real pain in the ass to balance
it didn't help that before Eclipse Cleaver we had this stigma of Aatrox being a "Gigachad champ" along with the likes of Ornn
and the amount of people who are just bad at Aatrox constantly complaining how weak he is
now look at him now
Aatrox is a nightmare to deal with when ahead and a pain to deal with when behind. The fact that you need to get grievous regardless to even stand a chance against him is already reason enough to nerf him.
draintanks require counter play and thus are OP
true
Riot will poop shit cum fart stinky
dont nerf darkin boy let him shit on kids
mfs deserve it after locking in yone top and thinking they are skilled in any type of way
funny how they cry about aatrox having a 50/50 when fiora sitting on a 52% wr.
like aatrox has the 11th highest wr, 11 top laners are more viable. and his ban rate is still higher than all of theirs.
its a fucking skill issue is what it is
Fiora is just more broken
