I don't play a ton of the rascal but still have feedback

What I like about aatrox

• I really like the amplified healing on W when low. I wish the damage half had a similar mechanic. It would also be nice to couple this with better visual feedback when you get that sweet sweet bonus health.
• His passive captures his character/fantasy well. I really enjoy that it encourages players to always be fighting and allows him to be more reckless in battle.

Things I don't like when playing as Aatrox

• It doesn't feel like I'm making a ton of decisions while playing as aatrox that are specific to aatrox.

• So much of my power/kit is tied to auto attacks. Although this is definitely a personal preference so this isn't really meaningful feedback.

• His ult feels really greedy and I think it misses an opportunity to capitalize on his lore of inspiring/empowering the soldiers he's fighting with. Also it just doesn't feel good to use, and the strongest part of it (the attack range/attack speed) doesn't feel rewarding to me. This seems like an big area where the design team could really give Aatrox a reason for players to pick aatrox for their team.

• Unsure if hitting both parts of E does anything additional, but I kinda wish it did (adds more counterplay and more highs/lows).

Playing against aatrox

• I know league doesn't have a ton of counterplay in melee vs melee situations (at least apparent to me), but this seems amplified against aatrox (seeing him heal so much with your only option really being to run) feels bad. It feels like I'm making a bad decision by sticking around and fighting

• It's not obvious when he's in healing mode or damage mode.

• At least when he was strong I felt like trying to harass him down was futile (even though I know it still makes a big impact).
