Some things I forgot to add to the guide.... - You can take Phase Rush vs. Olaf, allows you to short trade and run away. (Take Resolve secondary and run atk.spd shard) - You can buffer your W like your Q. - If you flash just as the Q1/Q2 knockup happens you can get an auto in where they can't flash away to avoid it. Also with the upcoming death timer changes in 14.16, ignite is more viable now since you don't lose out on killing your lane opponent early. Runs the same risks though as stated in the video. Good luck in your games.
So this guy just pops outta nowhere, uploads the best Aatrox guide I've seen ever, and it finishes with an amazing montage. You sir, make me happy to be an Aatrox main.
Holy guacamole I just won a lowmasta flex game after watching this guide! Without the helpful tips generously littered throughout this spectacular work of adult film, I would never have been able to get the victory royale. The way you make Aatrox Q look so soft, so voluptuous, really got me going. It's a wonder I was able to keep my head in the game and land my Q's after witnessing this spectacular guide to sunburned Viego. And for this, my sweet summer child, I am eternally grateful.
As a 1 million mastery point Aatrox main watching this video I feel like either I am part of some Aatrox main council and I am judging this video closely or that I still suck and I am still learning new things like why am I even watching this. Regardless, amazing video and it goes really nicely in-depth.
I swear to god those Q2 E Flash to the enemy back line gave us Aatrox mains an orgasm, only to find out you're all alone and your team are trying to damage the tank enemy and you're tanking all the CC from enemy's mages
I’ve only put my phone next to the speaker for a few aatrox game and RU-vid is already sending me aatrox videos. Damn it’s crazy. But! Really good editing. Had fun watching this and learnt something new.
I don't play the game anymore, nor have I played in the past couple of years. But I always liked Aatrox. These 20 mins went by like a ballistic missle. Great vid.
also one little tip i didn't see in the guide: try to land your q1 and initiate trades as your opponent is last hitting a minion (as soon as u see a friendly minion low and enemy champ is approaching it throw a q1 and extend into q2+e if you can)
Did not realize the other reason Aatrox counters Yorick is because his R fears Yoricks maiden, sick. I also just assume most match-ups that are considered "counters" is because they have a dash lol, which most of the time is true but this is very useful info for at least Yorick (very common low elo pick)
this is a decent guide.. but as far as runes go he forgot about phase rush for when youre against someone who will slow you and out run you. like olaf. three hits and you were never there. atkspd helps with wave clearing when pushed under turret. but never build atkspd items.
what do you suggest either to play with fixed camera or free? I am currently playing with free with middle mouse to control it. Do you think it will increase my skill if I switch to fixed camera?
120 POWER 100% ACCURACY 5 PP FIGHTING TYPE TYPE MOVE WHICH IS NONE OTHER THAN CLOSE COMBAT HELL YEAH BABY HERE COME THE POKEMON EXPERTS GON FLAME ME TELLING ME IM WRONG AND STUPID I REALLY HOPE THAT THE MOVE IM TALKING ABOUT IS 120 POWER AND 5 PP IF NOT IM GOING TO DO A BACKFLIP ON THE GROUND WHICH I HAVE NEVER EVER DONE PLS HELP
Aatrox is ok mid, he prefers melee opponents that he can harass with his q over ranged champs. So playing into melee mids sure but you'll have some trouble vs ranged.
@@tothericefields121 thanks for the reply! i'm asking because i've seen some mid players play aatrox mid (like lider who's an euw challenger assassin main) so i was wondering how viable it is since he seems like a fun character. what melee matchups would you say he works best in?
