How to play as Aatrox

Keep Umbral Dash(E) for Renekton's approach instead of opening with it; after he spends Slice and Dice(E), answer with Q and Infernal Chains(W).

Do not panic-cast The Darkin Blade(Q) into Ruthless Predator(W)'s stun; let Renekton spend his burst, then look to trade while Slice and Dice(E) is down.

Renekton's Slice and Dice(E) closes distance, and Ruthless Predator(W) stuns Aatrox during its burst combo.
