We want to make sure that Aatrox keeps his role as a durable teamfighter. So, we’re shifting some of Aatrox’s power by toning down his mobility and, in return, amping up his sustained damage.
The Darkin Blade
- Cooldown reduced from 13/11/9/7 seconds to 12/10/8/6.
- AD ratio increased from 70/75/80/85% AD to 75/80/85/90%.

Our recent buffs to Aatrox have made him a popular pick. But he’s been trampling through the jungle. This adjustment will bring back balance to nature.
The Darkin Blade
- Damage against monsters reduced from 100% to 70%.
Aatrox hasn’t been as dominant in the Baron Lane as we had hoped. With these slight buffs, he’s sure to scale into a late-game monster!
Deathbringer Stance
- Base damage increased from 5 to 12% (based on level) target's maximum health to 5 to 15% (based on level).
The Darkin Blade
- Base damage increased from 15/40/65/90 to 15/45/75/105.
- AD ratio increased from 65/70/75/80% AD to 70/75/80/85%.
Aatrox has been performing well in the jungle, but struggling in the Baron Lane. So we’re granting him some more health when he hits minions, which should give him some more sustain in lane.
Deathbringer Stance
- Healing against minions increased from 50% to 60%.
The Darkin Blade
- Damage against minions increased from 55% to 65%.
Aatrox struggled to find his footing last patch and his blade is not cutting as deep as expected. We want to make sure that when the Darkin Blade is unleashed in all its grand and terrifying glory, that it strikes a deeper chord of dread in the hearts of foes, so we’re making an adjustment to its damage.
World Ender
- Bonus attack damage increased from 20/30/40% to 30/40/50%.
Stats
- Base movement speed increased from 345 to 355.
Aatrox’s late game kiting and crowd control abilities are too powerful, so we’ve come for him with our nerf blade!
The Darkin Blade
- Cooldown changed from 13.5/11/8.5/6 seconds to 13/11/9/7.
Aatrox continues to see strong win rates and high ban rates. To combat this, we’re reducing the healing he gains from his World Ender, which is one of his more frustrating strengths.
World Ender
- Healing amplification reduced from 30/45/60% to 25/35/45%.
The Darkin Blade is performing better than we expect for a new champion, so we’re cutting some of his power across the board.
Stats
- Attack speed growth reduced from 2.2% to 1.2%.
Deathbringer Stance
- Maximum damage against monsters reduced from 100 to 50.
The Darkin Blade
- Sweetspot bonus damage reduced from 60% to 50%.
- Cooldown increased from 12/10/8/6 seconds to 13.5/11/8.5/6.
