Would Aatrox be better with the new changes but with the old passive?

Here's the problem with the new passive. Removing the revive passive as a permanent GA that he passively has was supposed to justify him not having health costs on his abilities. And it does, but...it justifies a whole lot more as well. He lost the Attack Speed he had for having any level of blood well filled up, and they did nothing to really compensate him for that huge loss in power from his budget. I suppose the base health increase was nice, but it didn't really help him in the grand scheme of things

Aatrox is fine, he's in an ok spot.™

Not having a passive is what distinguishes GOOD players from GREAT players.

Our aim is to balance the game from bronze V that loses games with 2 afk in the enemy team, to bengi, where Faker picks aatrox and plays like dogshit, we are not entirely sure where his spot after the changes will land but if we actually gave him a passive we would end with a 65% winrate champion in silver, as everything is useless crap and having a champion that can actually farm wouldn't be healthy for the status of the game.
