Who Wins
- You win levels 1-3 convincingly due to your passive stacking and higher base damage, especially if you can land Q sweetspots.
- At level 6, you still have the advantage since your ultimate executes while his requires landing skill shots to heal effectively.
How to Trade
- You want to trade when your passive is stacked or when you can guarantee a Q sweetspot hit followed by W auto reset.
- Avoid extended trades when your abilities are on cooldown as Aatrox can out-sustain you with his healing.
Wave Control
- You should look to freeze the wave near your tower to force Aatrox to overextend for CS, making him vulnerable to your ghost + flash all-ins.
- Avoid hard shoving unless you can recall immediately, as Aatrox can easily freeze against you.
Mistakes to Avoid
- Never chase Aatrox through his Q combo as you'll take massive damage and give him healing while your gap closers are down.
- Don't trade when you're low on health since his ultimate gives him significant healing that can turn fights around.
