Champion Portrait of Aatrox
Aatrox
Even
18150%-148+55This matchup tests your ability to bait out and sidestep Aatrox Q, hovering in and out of its range constantly as Mini-Gnar. Whenever he misses his Q3, you need to hard punish with mini-gnar by poking him out and zoning him out for the duration of his Q CD. If you successfully poked him out with mini-gnar, you can try to stun-lock and kill with mega-gnar else you can use mega-gnar to push the wave and crash, either go for a cheater recall or continue to harass under tower.Save mini-gnars dash for the chains. You should really outscale Aatrox in the side lane after 1 item provided you avoid his 3rd Q(flash it if you have)
