    When starting League, I immediately fell in love with ASol's playstyle. It was actually the only champion in the game that I felt truely resonated with me. I never found him clunky, at all. When his rework came, I tried others champions... Warwick and Jhin came pretty close to being my new mains but they never felt as... Home, as Aurelion Sol. His passive movement speed on E was super fun but I could live without it. His W rework, not so much. It sucked out all the ejoyment I had in the champion. Reverting that one change would be enough to make me come back, both in that champion, and in the game in general.

The reason Old Aatrox players don't like Boris ( what they call New Aatrox) is because in no way shape or form does he feel like Aatrox, the only thing remaining of his old identity is a small amount of self heal. He doesn't feel like Aatrox, he feels like Riven 2.
      "Oh you all shouldn't complain because when he got reworked, he was stronger"
      Ok, then you agree with the idea that the LeBlanc and Rengar players who complained about their changes were wrong. That those were on only a couple of abilites. Aatrox I reiterate, has nearly nothing remaining from his old identity. He went from a sustain tank/duelist, to an AD caster. His character went from an Insidious planing manipulator, whose main frame was "Battle is Elegance", who was framed by those he fought alongside with as a hero, only for those same people to eventually have the Glamor wear off, and realise the atrocous acts that they not only help him commit willingly, but praised him for, to a Kratos knockoff. Literally the antithesis of his character, yes they both still care about bloodshed and battle only, but their approaches are night and day.
      Did Aatrox need a rework because of his kit, sure, but in every other rework they have ever done they have sought fir to qt least try and maintain a semblance of the characters Identity. With Aatrox they failed categorically and undeniably.

    Ive always been good with asol, even after the rework. I did like the burstiness of the new rework, but like most I missed the sustained damage. In my opinion, aurelion sol would be better off reverted or tweaked better than what was given. One major thought if youre not going to give him his sustained damage then have his w add more stars every time he levels up his r, similar to what happens in ure but not as crazily. Another idea is make it to where the rotation of the star (passively and actively) increases every 100 AP, not majorly just enough to make a difference late game. His q as of now is lovely but its difficult to generate the size requirement in most gameplay, and for when you do get it to grand size, the damage is disappointing. Like the stun, it would be nice if the damage ramped up a little bit the bigger the star went. His e, for the love of god, a damn fish on a stick gets invulnerability but a dragon flying high over the stage is literally smacked out of the sky? Wtf? I wouldnt mind the distance traveled be shorter, I mean I rarely jumped that far, mostly did to get to areas faster. A cool thing to add would be something like start all. When he reaches his destination or is cut out early, he makes impact with the ground, dealing area of effect and slowing enemies. And then his r. I would go with turning it to have a similar effect as the everfrost item with a conic range and a line where its most effective. Keep the conic rance to the maximum that is currently there, but extend the bar range out just a little bit more for a spicier trickshot. Also the return of the movement passive would be appreciated. I dont understand why that was removed at all, you literally had to move in a straight line...

    The old one might have not been popular among everyone, but at least to mains (like me) he was so satisfying and cool to play (the micro managing of stars was good, and IMO the champion really wasn't that hard to learn). But now the rework just makes it so *litteraly no one* plays or like him anymore.

    Also, the bit about the champion being changed hit me, I've been missing old Urgot ever since the rework and new Urgot is just way too different.

    I love Aurelion Sol as a whole, from his lore to his looks to even what he was going to be before. When I finally picked him up and started maining him its was fun and something new, even though it did feel like i was doing nothing that is true, having a special connection to his design and personality really made me motivated to even play league in general, he legit was (at least for me) my reason to continue playing league. as the years went by and i saw him just getting shat on I couldn't literally play him anymore, I was losing game after game with him despite how many games i play with aurelion one after the other, and for now i guess that's where I'm at with him, he's just there, waiting for him to finally get that spark that makes him viable, viable enough to even match champions that counter him, because after all, mastering a champion comes in ways where even if something is deemed impossible, it would be possible. I always say aurelion being this powerful almost god-like being but now he's more of a meh usual generic dragon, and I'll be honest first time i saw his ultimate I was kinda surprised by how basic it was, but nonetheless it can go through yasuo walls so I'm okay with that xD. As a sol main, what i want to see is him being this roaming potential champion, that can ACTUALLY 1v1 champions and during the late game he'd become a aoe beast, and honestly, according to the lore, technically Aurelion is a creator rather than a god, a creator of starts and galaxies and such, so why not give him something similar to kai'sa, victor, and kha, he can evolve, make himself stronger as time goes by, just make the character feel fun and not like nay other champion with just point click abilities that deal more damage than a whole champion's kit. And please for the love of god, IF HIS Q IS BIGGER, IT DEALS MORE DAMAGE, not a massive amount to the point is broken BUT NOT A 100 DAMAGE LIKE BRUH.

    • @georgesdragon8722
      @georgesdragon8722 3 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      I totally agree with you, he is a way to interesting champion to be so plane and boring with nothing special about it but his stars orbiting around him. Riot could do so much more with him and I did write some ideas under TBSkyens short take on Aurelion, so i will just quickly copy paste the small paragraph with my personal idea on how to change his ult here:
      To be honest, I am certain if they come up with good ideas, they might be able to resemble the godlike aspect of aurelion sol. For example, if they were to change him entirely (his kit, not his Lore or anything else) a neat idea would be an ultimate that let's him become untargetable and ascend into the skies. However, it would not just be him flying up to the sky and never be seen again, but actually him flying to you, the players camera, and taking it's place. The player himself as the summoner is somewhat a mighty being in the rift, controlling the champion and looking at the entirety of the rift and aurelion taking it's place, making it seem you are him in first person would give that fitting immersion of an almighty being.
      Now just throw in a voice line like "scooch over summoner" or "Were you really thinking you are the only one capable of looking down at others?" and you have an S tier resemblance of Aurelion.
      And yes, the Q should have damage scaling with size, no idea why no one at riot ever thought of including that in the game. And I also agree wit you on the idea of him being a one man army late game. He definitely has the lore-power of doing so and his resemblance in-game is nothing compared to his lore self. Maybe he should have some sort of avatar as his in-game resemblance to show that he is not the one being killed by a hamster with poison darts, but a 'weaker' image of himself to make it fair. If Jax can't have a real weapon, why can't aurelion have a real body?

      @docrun3516 3 ปีที่แล้ว

      @@georgesdragon8722 people do think about Q dmg scaling with size, but what about the base dmg of the Q once that buff comes in? They would have to nerf the Q in its small form to balance it, or else the dmg skyrockets for the Q too far. He would have a strong small Q and an even stronger Q when its big. And by any means, asols use the Q in its small form far more often than the big form. So it would be a nerf after all. And besides, the gameplay would be anything but interactive. If that idea would get into the game, you would only see asols tping back into fountain every 60 seconds and try to one shot people with their huge Galaxy throughout the mid/end game. Every 60 seconds backport, try to Q somewhere and fly, if it doesnt work go back to lane, waveclear, wait for E, rinse and repeat. That champ would be dead right on the spot. Besides in the late game aurelion with lot of items deals more than enough dmg with his Q. Considering its an AoE dmg spell that also Stuns the longer the Q flies.
      As for the idea with first person aurelion. Just why? That would not make aurelion more interesting but just weird. He is not supposed to make you feel like a god. Else malphite has to be as big as the whole summoners rift cause he is supposed to be a mountain and so on. Game design plays a role in this and long animations or anything don't have a space in such a quick paced game. Its like people wanting to see their full backport animation of their 30$ skin they bought, even though they have a baron recall that changes it to 4 seconds.

    • @georgesdragon8722
      @georgesdragon8722 3 ปีที่แล้ว

      @@docrun3516 Yes, the nerfs to his Q's base damage would be necessary, but even then Aurelion could still be balanced if they shit his missing small Q damage to his W or his Passive. And even though his Q would deal a shit ton of damage, it would probably still not be used in the fashion you addressed, being used every 60 seconds non stop to get one huge Q off. Even now with a huge stun the big Q is never really used, exceptions being as a zoning tool for objectives when he is far away or as a way to roam to other lanes. And even then it is fairly easy to dodge as long as the enemy knows that they have a minimap. The Q damage on scale would also contribute to the fact that it gives clarity. If I see a huge galaxy flying towards me, I would try to avoid it of course, but if I get hit by it and take only 150 damage or so - yes with a huge stun but that doesn't make me get one shot by Asol anyways - I won't see it as such a huge threat anymore.
      And about the first person Asol: just why not? He is a character people get invested in because of his unusual looks and sassy voice lines and his ultimate doing something big would push that feel of a god. And yes, if his Lore says he is a god, he should feel like one. Pyke's is the probably best example: you are an insane psychopathic killer and every aspect about him feels like it. Especially his ultimate that let's you go in a killing rampage, the same way pyke would probably slaughter a bunch of people in a frenzy in bilgewater. And Malphite isn't a mountain because... well, because his design is literally 11 years old and has never gotten an update ever since. All of the newer champions fit in the lore rather well and most exceptions are champions that existed till season 1, because the lore was entirely different. And I never said the idea of the first person ultimate was a 10 second animation of sorts, I was imagining something like 1.5 seconds of ascending in the skies, then voice line and Aurelion's hands showing on the sides. The player can now do... Idk, cast one of 3 different celestial abilities with different utility purposes? And after 4 to 8 seconds he descends to the same location he has used the ultimate on, which makes him VERY vulnerable to enemies.
      My main point stays the same: Aurelion Sol is a far too interesting character to not be pushing his limits more.
