Playing against Aatrox

How to counter and exploit weaknesses

1

Buy Grievous Wounds early: Aatrox relies heavily on his sustain to win trades.

2

Dodge his Q1 and Q2 sideways, then dodge forward on Q3 to get out of the sweet spot zone.

3

Punish him when his Q is on cooldown (14-10s) — it's his only significant damage source.

4

His W can be dodged by walking out of the zone before it closes — save a dash or Flash for it.
