Except their kits screams "glass cannon all in" and they were designed to be melee carries, where as Aatrox can go for something more tanky and still be useful. They did not designed him to be an carry, after all...

His sword is actually organic and can expand, so it would also made much more sense if he was ranged than a Swordmaster or a Fencer.
