Aatrox, the Darkin Blade, is a melee fighter champion. In fights Aatrox is a durable champion who deals physical damage over extended fights, with healing in the kit. Here are the augments Aatrox players take most, the Prismatic items worth grabbing and the core build on patch 26.20.
Become large, gaining 15% Health and 10% Adaptive Force.
The extra health keeps you in fights longer, and the adaptive force raises The Darkin Blade (Q) damage, which also increases your healing from Umbral Dash (E).
Gain 15% Armor Penetration and Magic Penetration.
Armor penetration boosts your physical damage from The Darkin Blade (Q) and Infernal Chains (W), while magic penetration boosts Deathbringer Stance (Passive) magic damage.
After using a Dash, Blink, or Teleport Ability you gain Armor and Magic Resist.
Umbral Dash (E) is a dash you can use while winding up your other abilities, so you gain armor and magic resist mid-combo.
In game, Hexgate puts a badge under every augment card you are offered, with how often Aatrox players take it.
