Aatrox is known for having a pretty good early game, but over time, he doesn't get strong enough to catch up with others. And if the enemy team cant manage to kill you in a few seconds or straight up ignore you, then they are bad. In addition, even if he has his dark flight to move and e to slow, as soon as he uses them up he becomes very kitable. Even with them off cd, they are predictable and have relatively low range, and they take a while to carry out. Also, that amount of health, armor, and mr isn't even that tanky. I can think of so many champions who can melt through all that within seconds.

If you notice, most forms of dps have either 2 things: 1)mobility or 2)range. Marksman are the most typical examples of range, while mobility includes people like yi, tryn, or yasuo. Aatrox, overall, attempts to have both with him, but cannot get to a good level on either. His mobility is limited compared to people like yi, while his range (even with ult) is limited compared to people like Caitlyn. He goes midway in both aspects, rather than all the way. And if he can't go all the way in one or the other, then his usefulness as a dps is limited.

And forgive me, but unless the enemy team has terrible tunnel vision or are straight up retarded, they shouldn't lose 1 v 5 to an aatrox. All it takes is one person, to be honest. I could literally just play a typical ap mage and kill him from afar, and if he has passive and or GA (cuz u said 3rd life, I assume u got GA) up, I can just wait for him to get out of it and kill him from afar again, then boom goes the cd on those 2 things.

His winrate is low (hovering around 47%), and I see little to no people even play him anymore. He is far from being op, and I think you and I both acknowledge that the majority of people commenting here agree with me.
