Why did Riot rework Aatrox?

Riot reworked Aatrox because his original gameplay was considered unhealthy, unfun, and a balancing nightmare, despite his cool theme as a darkin warlord. Players liked his lore and visuals but disliked his kit, which relied heavily on stats and lifesteal but lacked clear play patterns, leading to him being either useless or overpowered. The major rework aimed to solidify him as a powerful, greatsword-wielding juggernaut with heavy, skillshot-based combat, replacing his old identity as a stats-stick duelist.
