Aatrox's passive applies first and is additive not multiplicative so it's only his base AS. Nasus' Wither is applied after and is total multiplicative, so overall Wither puts it lower then his base. Until level 15.

If we consider Base Attack Speed to be 100% (or 100) for all champs. Wither lowers it to 52.5% or 52.5. If we add in Aatrox's passive and AS per level, at 18 he has 201% of his Attack Speed. Nasus' Wither lowers this to 105.525%. At level 14 Aatrox has 189% of his Attack speed form per level and his passive. Wither lowers this to 99.225%, on the next level it goes above 100% and exceed's Nasus' wither.

Overall I do agree, in order for Nasus to have this advantage he has to have wither max level before level 15 and Aatrox would have to have no bought any Attack Speed at all (haha yeah right) which is an unlikely scenario, as well it costs mana. However Aatrox can only get this extra 50% through damaging himself before hand to keep up his blood well.

Aatrox is gonna need to be touched up a bit, I don't find him too much though, just a bit of number shifting. But yes the 50% alone makes it a strong passive, but it's not what I dislike about him at the moment.
