Who Wins
- You lose pre-6 due to Aatrox's superior range and your lack of reliable gap closers to punish his Q poke.
- Post-6 you gain kill pressure through R engage potential, especially with jungle assistance or tower dives.
How to Trade
- Wait for Aatrox to use E aggressively or waste Q combo, then look for Q flash engages to get on top of him.
- Once in melee range, weave W bite between autos and use your passive lightning to win extended trades.
Wave Control
- Accept being pushed early and focus on farming safely near your tower where Aatrox can't freely poke.
- Post-6, look for freezes near your tower to set up R dive opportunities with jungle assistance.
Mistakes to Avoid
- Don't chase Aatrox through his Q combo as he'll kite you with E dashes and sweet spot damage.
- Avoid fighting when he has R active unless you can burst him quickly, as his enhanced healing and damage make extended fights heavily favor him.
