Actually Athenes gives better sustain when you are low on mana. Take Ahri/Lux/Ziggs/Syndra/LeBlanc/Annie/Orianna for example, at level 8 they will have 623 base mana and 10.6 base regeneration. With Morello's they will have 21.2 regeneration, with Athenes they will have 15.9 regeneration which is a difference of 5.3. Now the Athene's passive gives more mana every 5 seconds equal to 2% of what is missing, for this to make up the 5.3 difference you would need to be missing 265 mana which is 42.5~% of total meaning that if you are under 57.5~% mana Athene's will be giving you more back. And this is just the guarunteed mana, there is also the potential mana from kills or assists which can help make sure you don't run out of mana during a team fight. Whether you should buy Morello's or Athenes I would say is a debatable thing depending a lot on your champion pick and individual playstyle.
