I have played one champ for over 6 and a half years. That champ is Mordekaiser. Through the years I learned a lot about objective control and how to make Morde's kit work in ways many people have never considered. More than any of his spells- Morde's Ult has been instrumental in the plays I'm able to make. For the first time ever I even got my main account to Diamond last night. It felt good ya know?

Mordekaiser's ult allows you to enslave an enemy unit or even the Dragon for 45, 60 and 75 seconds as maxed. When Morde secures a Ghost he can waste it tanking a tower- but I try to make the most of those seconds. Morde Ghost can:

But more than anything- my staple go to play is the Dragonfall gank at lvl 6 from top to bot.

THIS is how it normally works assuming I can get teammates on board for it: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xSpS96dRtOo

With the birth of Dragon Ghost nearly 8 months ago during Morde's rework- there came a targeting issue Morde mains had never experienced. Riot gave us a ghost that disobeyed orders.

This is an example of what it used to look like- not extreme- but still dislikeable: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=T1Xu1r6DonA

Two patches ago Riot made what we had thought was going to finally be the Targeting Ai fix. Screenshot related: https://gyazo.com/66137bf6a3562a8b5601e8008d4ce5f0

After this patch- Dragon got far worse. Now he compeltely shuts down and ignores all orders if attacked by a tower. Never experienced this before and now I have seen it in multiple games. When I teleport bot for Drg it's not to secure Drg- it's for that chancy but high reward dbl kill I might snag if the play goes correctly upon diving bot. When that play doesn't work out I lose 2 levels of exp top and even if I was winning the lane it's becomes hard o comeback.

The video linked in the title is how Morde's Dragon Ghost behaves now.

Riot. It's time for a Hueart to Hueart. A Morde main does not and will never need a ghost that 'thinks'. After years of microing I accumulated all 8 badges and am capable of telling Charizard wtf he needs to do. I'm asking you to create an Ai that hears an order and obeys. I want a ghost that responds to all my commands. Hell it would be nice to have a ghost that can kill wards too ya know? But that's asking too much. Just please give me back my Dragonfall dives. I spent a lot of time theorycrafting new Morde and making him my own again. Please do not punish the one tricks.

This happened to me last night in a game. Could have gotten a kill but the dragon just stopped listening to me when flying past a turret. I EVEN YELLED REALLY LOUD
