The "every third attack heal" is about where the similarities end. I guess you could say they both have gap closers, knockups, area of effect slow and attack speed steroids. I could also point out that both deal current health damage to nearby enemies while also granting themselves a defensive steroid per enemy champion hit.

They are very similar, but I imagine Xin Zhao is the better duelist/assassin while Aatrox is a better at attrition (sustained damage and forcing long-fights).
