Malphite vs Aatrox · Top lane matchup

01

Core game plan

Malphite's level 1 Q can take half of Aatrox's HP. After level 6, he can fight back. If Aatrox doesn't build MR, he can be poked easily. Overall favorable matchup.

How a strong Aatrox player plays

  1. 1

    Poke while CSing

    Aatrox will use Q to poke you while you CS; watch your positioning to dodge the outer edge.

  2. 2

    Dive with middle Q

    When you're low under tower, Aatrox will wait for Q cooldown and use the middle blade to dive and kill you.

  3. 3

    Ult to counter

    Aatrox deals high damage when he ults; dodge his Q, hold your ult, and fight back after he uses his abilities.
