Using empty() means that isset() isn't needed. This could be simplied to just:

if ( ! empty( $attributes['className'] ) ) {.

Nice catch and it encouraged me to take a bit deeper look at this.
ATM $attributes['className'] can return NULL, an empty string or a string that was populated by a user.

Considering that "0" is a valid string that theoretically can be used by a user as a custom class empty() won't be enough as it will validate it to false.

Also as it's a user input where you can expect unexpected I should have been sanitized it. ie if I put <script>alert(1)</script> as a custom class I get an alert prompt on the front-end. Shame on me!

To sum up, I think that the conditional should have a similar shape to what you can see below, but holding off for now because of the other comments.

$custom_class = wp_strip_all_tags( $attributes['className'] );
if ( isset( $custom_class ) && $custom_class !== '' ) {
	$class .= ' ' . $custom_class;
}

$class .= ' ' . $attributes['className'];
}

$block_content = sprintf(
'<ul class="%1$s">%2$s</ul>',
esc_attr( $class ),
