Aatrox. Sustain is the name of the game, son. Like Xin, it can be a pain working with the third-hit-proc of his W if you don't have any lifesteal but it gets him by especially in the jungle. With some attack speed runes and AD heavy masteries, his W will keep him roughly around 50% HP in the jungle at all times throughout early game. While that may leave me prone to invades and failed ganks(use pots to fix that) it's the matter of consistency that I like the most. With a full blood well and maybe a decent attack speed item(devourer, wits end, stinger, ect) I can solo drag without much of a problem. HOWEVER, my main beef with him is his ult. I've mained Aatrox for about a year now and I still have yet to find a decent, productive use of it. I mean, maybe if it gave an AOE attack speed buff to aid allies in teamfights, or gave you resistances based on how many enemies are hit with the AOE(similar to Rengar's W) I really hope Riot looks into it sometime soon. Even with his pathetic ult, he's carried me through thick and thin.

Das why he's muh bae <3
