Statistical Matchup Analysis

With 2.6% popularity, Kled constantly encounters meta-dominant Aatrox (9.1%, 1st place out of 62 Top champions). Understanding how to play against this popular champion becomes essential for consistent Kled performance in the current patch. Identical tiers, different outcomes: Despite matching B+-tier ratings, Kled struggles with only 49.1% win rate. Aatrox's mechanics prove more effective in this particular confrontation. Every edge matters: In this tough matchup, the proven Grasp of the Undying + Demolish combination (61.1% win rate) plus optimal itemization Hubris, Profane Hydra, Voltaic Cyclosword, and Plated Steelcaps boosts your chances from 49.1% to 65.9% - potentially game-changing.

Survive and scale: Kled faces both matchup (49.09%) and farming disadvantages (6.27 vs 6.51/min). With a 0.24 CS/min deficit, prioritize safe farming and jungle assistance. Outclassed across the board: Aatrox leads in both matchup win rate (50.9%) and damage (866 vs 849/min). Kled must seek alternative win conditions through macro play and team coordination. Strong individual performance: Kled maintains better KDA (2.10, 10th place vs 27th for Aatrox), but loses the matchup overall. High KDA without wins suggests difficulty translating individual advantages into victory conditions.

How to Beat Aatrox as Kled (Top)

Despite the slight difference in effectiveness, in the Kled versus Aatrox matchup in the top lane, neither champion has an overwhelming advantage. The winner is determined by player skill and understanding the intricacies of the confrontation. Studying this guide will improve your chances of success.

Except for rare builds, Kled deals physical damage. Focus on eliminating enemy carries. Aatrox deals mainly physical damage (89.52%), additional items against this damage type may be required against snowballing or aggressive play.

Consider the farming superiority demonstrated by Aatrox, ranking 32nd (versus 44th for Kled) in farming efficiency among champions in this role. This means the opponent can build gold advantages more quickly. Meanwhile, their lower KDA (1.9 versus 2.1) suggests they are less effective in team fights.

Key aspects of the Kled Top versus Aatrox Top matchup

In this difficult confrontation, it is critically important for the Kled player to avoid attempts to force trades and all-ins with the Aatrox player, as the matchup requires a patient and calculated approach. Extended trades without clear tactical advantage often lead to unfavorable consequences, and ignoring opportunities to receive team support can be a fatal mistake for game progression.

    Kled tips:

    • Kled generates some courage by killing minions, but gets much more from fighting Champions.
    • The last hit of Violent Tendencies deals more damage than the first three - make sure you hit it!
    • Chaaaaaaaarge!!! can be cast at a great range. Try and predict where the enemy team will be by the time you reach them.

    Playing Against Aatrox

    • Aatrox's attacks are very telegraphed, so use the time to dodge the hit zones.
    • Aatrox's Infernal Chains are easier to exit when running towards the sides or at Aatrox.
    • Keep your distance when Aatrox uses his Ultimate to prevent him from reviving.
