Innate:Aatrox periodically empowers his next basic attackon-attack to gain 50 bonus range and deal 5% − 12% (based on level) of the target's maximum health as bonus physical damage, capped at 100 against monsters, and heal him for 100% of the bonus damage dealt, reduced to 25% against minions.
Deathbringer Stance's cooldown is reduced by 2 seconds whenever Aatrox hits at least one enemy champion or large monster with a basic attack on-hit or an ability. The cooldown is further reduced by 2 seconds if he hits with the Sweetspot of The Darkin Blade.
Aatrox will assume stance when an enemy champion is in range of Infernal Chains.
Pressing CTRL + 5 switches stances controllably.
Commanding an attack before Deathbringer Stance is available, but hitting the target while it's available will not trigger the bonus damage.
Even if the ability hit is spell shieldedDeathbringer Stance's cooldown will still be reduced.
This ability goes on cooldown on death and refreshes upon respawn.
The Sweetspot cooldown reduction only checks if an enemy is within the Sweetspot, and, since the Sweetspot area extends beyond the damage area, it is possible to trigger the cooldown reduction without damaging or knocking up an enemy.
Deathbringer Stance's enhanced attack can be blocked.
𝐏𝐄𝐍𝐃𝐈𝐍𝐆 𝐅𝐎𝐑 𝐓𝐄𝐒𝐓: Interaction with parrying effects (dodge, blind).
Aatrox can activate The Darkin Blade three times before the ability goes on cooldown, with a 1 second static cooldown between casts. If Aatrox does not recast the ability within 4 seconds of the previous cast, it goes on cooldown.
Each of the three casts has Aatrox perform an acrobatic strike with his greatsword, dealing physical damage in a distinct area. Enemies hit within a telegraphed Sweetspot in the strike are dealt 50% bonus damage and are knocked up for 0.25 seconds. The second cast deals 25% increased damage and the third cast deals 50% increased damage.
First Cast:Aatrox's first strike affects a 625 × 180-unit rectangular area in the target direction, with Aatrox centered on the back line and the Sweetspot at the farthest edge.
Second Cast:Aatrox's second strike affects a trapezoidal area in the target direction, with the Sweetspot at the farthest edge. The hitbox begins 100-units behind Aatrox and extends 475-units in front of him, measuring between 300 and 500-units wide from behind to in front.
Third Cast:Aatrox's third strike affects a 300-radius circular area centered on a target location 200 units in front of him, with a 180-radius Sweetspot within.
The highlighted areas denote the sweetspot - enemies are affected where the two areas overlap (See edge range and center range).
The first and second casts function like any point-blank AOE (i.e. an effect centered on the caster). An enemy is considered to be hit by the ability based on edge range - i.e. if any part of your gameplay radius is within the hitbox, you are affected.
The third cast, as well as the Sweetspot for the first and second cast, function like ground-targeted abilities. An enemy is considered to be hit by the ability based on center range - i.e. an enemy's center has to be within the hitbox to be affected.
As implied by the previous point, the Sweetspot for the first and second cast is implemented as separate areas of effect to the main component of the ability. Enemies must be within both areas to trigger the bonus damage and knock up.
Deathbringer Stance's cooldown reduction only checks if an enemy is within the Sweetspot - meaning it is possible to trigger the cooldown reduction without affecting an enemy.
Each cast counts as an ability activation for the purposes of on-cast effects such as Spellblade and stacking Force Pulse.
The hitbox and Aatrox's model are fixed to the initial target direction.
Aatrox's facing-direction, for effects such as Petrifying Gaze, is the direction he is moving, and not the direction the model is facing.
Active:Aatrox smashes the ground in the target direction, sending forth a chain that deals physical damage to the first enemy hit, doubled against minions, and slowing them by 25% for 1.5 seconds.
Physical Damage:
30 / 40 / 50 / 60 / 70 (+ 40% AD)
Minion Damage:
60 / 80 / 100 / 120 / 140 (+ 80% AD)
If Infernal Chains hits an enemy champion or large monster, they are revealed and are tethered to the impact area. If the tethered enemy is still in the area after 1.5 seconds, they are dragged to the center and take the same damage again.
Total Damage:
60 / 80 / 100 / 120 / 140 (+ 80% AD)
Info
Notes
The impact area is oriented relative to Aatrox's position when the projectile hits, not where the projectile originated from.
The location that the target is dragged to is not at the target's original location, but slightly closer towards Aatrox's position when the zone expires.
There's a small delay in checking if the target is in or outside the Infernal Chains area. Because of this it is still possible to drag the target if they leave the zone at the last instant.
Spell shield will block the chain's application and initial damage but not the aftereffects of one already applied.
Infernal Chains will fire from where Aatrox is at the end of the cast time.
Umbral Dash can be cast during his other abilities without cancelling them, and vice versa.
Umbral Dash may cast across terrain with an increased dash range. This may upscale his dash speed so that the dash takes the same total time as the standard maximum-range dash.
Info
Notes
The dash distance can be extended to up-to 500 units when targeting across terrain. It will only extend for the distance needed to cross the wall.
If Umbral Dash is cast in the same direction Aatrox is moving, he will be unable to buffer commands that require him to move. *
Aatrox's model darkens for 1.5 seconds upon casting Umbral Dash, which is a remnant from a buff he received before it got removed.
Active:Aatrox unleashes his true demonic form, causing all nearby enemy minions and monsters to flee from him for 3 seconds, during which they are rapidly slowed by up to 99% over the duration. For the next 10 seconds, Aatrox gains ghosting and bonus movement speed, decaying by 10% of the current bonus every 0.25 seconds.
Bonus Movement Speed:
60 / 80 / 100%
While transformed, Aatrox gains bonus attack damage and 5% increased size, and receives increased self-healing from all sources.
Bonus AD:
20 / 30 / 40% AD
Increased Healing:
30 / 45 / 60%
With each enemy championtakedown, World Ender's duration is extended by 5 seconds, refreshing its effects, up to the original amount.
