How to play as Wukong

When Aatrox starts Darkin Blade(Q), use Nimbus Strike(E) to close after an early swing and keep Warrior Trickster(W) available to leave before the third cast.

Chunk Aatrox before committing to a finish; his passive heals him on a periodic attack, so a full-health all-in is less reliable than first creating a health lead.

Aatrox's Darkin Blade(Q) has three successive swings with different hit areas, while Nimbus Strike(E) lets Wukong dash to Aatrox and change the distance between them during the sequence.
