Arrr, kit reference
Trick names, descriptions and numeric fields come from Riot Data Dragon. Practical reads be independently written; th' present in-battle tooltip remains authoritative.
Arrr, what it doesEnglishPeriodically, Aatrox's next basic attack deals bonus magic damage and heals him, based on the target's max health.
Arrr, what it doesEnglishAatrox slams his greatsword down, dealing physical damage. He can swing three times, each with a different area of effect.
That exported range ain't a verified in-game distance. Check the ability's current tooltip, matey.
Arrr, what it doesEnglishAatrox smashes the ground, dealing damage to the first enemy hit. Champions and large monsters have to leave the impact area quickly or they will be dragged to the center and take the damage again.
Arrr, what it doesEnglishPassively, Aatrox heals when damaging enemy champions. On activation, he dashes in a direction.
That exported range ain't a verified in-game distance. Check the ability's current tooltip, matey.
Arrr, what it doesEnglishAatrox unleashes his demonic form, fearing nearby enemy minions and gaining attack damage, increased healing, and Move Speed. If he gets a takedown, this effect is extended.
That exported range ain't a verified in-game distance. Check the ability's current tooltip, matey.
Adapt th' course
Judge th' whole course or sea chart state, nay only personal kills. Pick th' situation closest to th' present battle.
Push safely, then threaten vision, a side course or th' foe jungle without abandoning free farm.
Reach river first aboard wit' yer Jungler and preserve th' cooldown needed if th' foe contests.
Pressure a valuable target while respecting th' control that can end yer lead.
Trade when yer key trick and minion position favour ye; an even course does nay require a forced solo kill.
Move on a completed wave and return afore several waves be lost to th' tower.
Position fer th' champion's reliable damage or control instead o' beginning wit' th' lowest-percentage spell.
Use range, tower space and vision. Do nay contest every last aboard hit if it opens another kill.
Ping lost overboard early and take th' seaworthy course; blindly matching a stronger roam can meet defeat two positions.
Group 'round yer most dependable control and damage rather than searching alone fer a comeback.
Pings, movement and prizes
Mid can reach either side, but th' wave pays fer every move. Communicate th' foe first aboard, then move only when th' course and destination be credible.
Pings create a shared course; they do nay replace checking waves, vision and who can move.
Push, catch or communicate th' wave afore leaving so th' foe does nay gain a free move and free income.
Use On Me Way fer th' course ye be actually taking and Peril where an unseen foe may arrive.
Move through controlled vision wit' th' Jungler or another ally instead o' face-checking th' prize alone.
Decide whether ye be engaging, front-lining, flanking or protecting a carry afore th' fight begins.
Later prizes: Repeat th' same process 'round later major prizes: handle nigh th' ship income, communicate th' course, enter through vision and agree on th' fight afore committing.
Use th' chart
Compare a specific foe, return to th' champion overview, or choose another champion without losing th' queue distinction.
