Aatrox used to be more skill-reliant, as he'd have to first use the skills before getting as much as a 40% Attack Speed boost from Each Skill, with maxed Blood Well. Ult also gives youa bonus 50% boost. Problem with the passive, is you should get a brief period of bonus defenses, so you don't get one-shot by a Wukong hanging around you. (I've done it before, as the Wk.)

Blood Well was no way all of Aatrox's survivabillity. His survivability is centered in the Life Vamp he builds, and his w being on Blood Thirst. Blood Well does pretty much double his damage, though.
