whats your opinion on naayil's new BC/Iceborne build

(1) |

I took quite the long break from League so I'm not really in the position to evaluate his build. But looking at the current state of Aatrox I will definetly give it a try and might include it in my builds.

Good for you, best way to enjoy league is not to play it. yeah i have been playing the build exclusively since i last commented. BC feels really good as a first item. Once you get iceborn the slows are really nice and the surviveability is much higher but the damage is still a bit lacking early. I tested it in practise tool as well as playing a few games. The BC/Iceborn build feels way better mid to late. More utility, way more surviveability and even more damage somehow late game. Eclipse is good if you are stomping lane and snowballing, but unless ur way ahead of everyone as soon as lane phase ends the damage just isnt there and on top of that you are way squishier so you just get one shot. I think this biuld is about getting out of the assasin mindset aatrox has been in for last while and more into traditional juggernaut/utility role, where ur focus is to slow enemies and survive and just **** the enemy team up as a raid boss as frontline/dive and even peel for adc's with Iceborne procs. It takes a little getting used to but definately feels much better once you work out what your supposed to be doing and also the different spikes.

Sorry for the rather late response, my break still isn't quite over yet^^. I might start playing actively again very soon, right now i'm just testing out some builds on Aatrox on my low diamond smurf. It is rather hard to find something fitting since it feels like you don't have a big impact with Aatrox anymore. I guess the current meta for Aatrox is just trying to peel as much as possible for your carries. The guide is also beeing updated in the future with BC/Iceborn beeing the main components.

Très explicatif

What do you think in a heavy armor tank matchup to rush BC instead of mythic first? Maybe help the malphite matchup?

(1) |

Personally speaking i don't like rushing BC or any item before getting your mythic first. I might give it a try in future games but right now i'm not a big fan of that idea.

Have you even spoken with EU Naayil? He has tons of videos on Youtube and twitch. Mostly where I started on the champion.

Never have and never planned to. I sometimes watch his stream but the majority of this guide containts information from my experience in high elo.

Isnt unflinching now uselesss after 12.14 nerf?

(1) |

Need to play some games first before i can judge the nerfed Unflinching

any way to play into malzahar top? it feels so oppressive and hard to follow up on a spellshield break since im under turret 24/7

(1) |

I don't have much experience playing against a Malzahar top but i would suggest to let him push in the wave and don't let him poke you out of lane until you are level 5. Try to punish him for walking up by hitting your first Q and back off until your Q resets. Then you should be able to go for the usual Q1 into W trade to all-in him. After that manage the wave to perma freeze and kill him everytime he walks up since he is completely immobile.

How do you counter volibear with aatrox?

(1) |

I will add Volibear into the "Threats" sheet. Won't take me long so just be patient.

I apologize if this sounds realllllllly stupid, but would Ravenous Hydra/Tiamat be good when snowballing?

(1) |

Definetly not recommandable since you will be a glass cannon

Bet ty

I want main aatrox but im scare im low elo nplayer to play him

I don't know anyone that was perfect at playing Aatrox for the first time. Take your time and try to acquire new knowledge every game. That would be my best tip for you.
