Who Wins
- You lose early trades levels 1-3 due to Aatrox's superior range and Q poke damage, but you can start winning extended trades around level 4-5 with multiple Q stacks.
- At level 6, you gain a significant advantage as your R provides mobility, healing, and damage that outscales his all-in potential.
How to Trade
- Your optimal trading pattern involves using W to negate his Q sweet spots, then engaging with E-Q when he's in your mist for extended trades.
- Always look to stack your Q on minions before trading, and use your passive healing to sustain through his poke.
Wave Control
- Focus on freezing the wave near your tower early to avoid his Q poke and force him to overextend for CS.
- Once you have items and levels, you can start slow pushing to build minion advantages for longer trades in your W.
Mistakes to Avoid
- Never trade without your W available against his combo, as his Q sweet spots will chunk you heavily without the damage immunity.
- Avoid chasing him when your W expires, as he can turn the fight with his Q knockups and sustain.
