This is contrasting evidence that he is worse when playing with Lucian.
Moreover, when Aatrox plays with Lucian on the same team, he often takes a little less damage than when he fights alone. Getting dealt not as much damage could indicate that Lucian does a decent job of covering Aatrox in teamfights.
