They'll fix him when they fix sustain-based champs. (As in never)

They can't figure out how to keep healing from being "oppressive" so they literally gut it everywhere but Soraka and lifesteal.

He is not in a need for a rework. What he needs is his previous changes to his E to be reverted because there are champions who clearly deal more damage with a single ability than aatrox does with his E. Another thing is that he needs a serious buff to his base health and magic resist scaling. The way that Riot looks at it that most top laners start a item 2033 or a item 1055 which gives pretty good HP and sustain, but Aatrox needs to start defensive most of the times, usually with a item 1029 because of most top laners dealing significant damage early on ( Jax, Irelia, Illaoi, Darius, Pantheon etc..) which can hurt aatrox real hard and blow up his passive to a 225 cooldown. So pretty much buffing his early game slightly and reverting the changes to his E which happened more than 2 years ago.

He might need a buff, but he is more than certainly not weak.
