Introduction
Critrox is a build that I came up with after realizing that Aatrox has pretty bad teamfight and late game potential. He can do damage, but most of his normal playing style is based off of dueling and life stealing his way to victory.
I tried to change that in this build by using only his Blood Thirst for early game sustain, and passive for attack speed. Even without items, Aatrox has a very potent early game, and can beat most in lane without them.
The only problem I've found with the build so far is his inherent weakness to hard CC, and that his early mid-game is a little weak, mostly during the interlude between getting avarice blade, zeal, and dual dorans, and picking up the infinity edge. Aside from that, this build should make you something to fear during team fights, and even more so during duels.
In addition, even without smite, Aatrox can pickup dragon and Baron very easily early on. Once you get a statikk shiv and level 8 or 9, dragon should be pretty easy to puck up. Baron is a little trickier, but with a statikk, IE, ravenous, and PD, you should be good to go, as long as you're at least level 16. Be prepared to use your ult if things go badly however.

As per the usual for team fights, focus the ADC first. Being the main damage dealer for the other team, getting them out of the way is a good plan. If you wait until the other team burns their CC on your initiator, you get a straight shot and can kill of their carry pretty quickly. Remember, even if you get focused before you can kill anyone, your life steal will give you a pseudo-tankiness that will keep you alive for a good amount of time, and any time their team focuses you is time they don't focus your ADC.
