So I played around with Morde's improved W on the PBE
Who even needs a support if you can just W a minion now?
Mordekaiser just got his wave clear back, he annihilates minion waves with a simple W->E combo and his buffed E makes him poke actually hurt.
Now that we're slowly getting the tools we need to succeed in a solo lane we won't feel bad about taking him top or mid and feel forced to play him bot if we want to win.
Getting trashed in lane? W a frontline minion, net some cs, get a heal from reactivating W on the enemy if he tries to cs Getting ganked? W a backline minion and get some MS and reactivate it for a heal if they chase you through the minion wave Enemy laner leaves you alone? TIME TO SHRED, pushing mercilessly and punishing him for leaving you alone
As much as Riot seems to try to advocate Duo lane Mordekaiser they're actually on the right track to please all solo lane Morde's out there. He's actually starting to become more viable with every passing PBE patch.
Malicious Metal's Snowdown wish list:
-World Domination
-Functioning solo W
-Better base stats
-Iron Maiden
Mordekaiser
"You little shits! We told you to play him in the bot lane, stop having fun in other lanes! And to that one guy that took him into the jungle specifically to prove that more Morde's are seen jungling than going in to a duo lane, we have decided that's not funny."
I'm noticing a small problem.
into a bot lane melee carry. He has mobility, CC, sustain, ways to punish ADCs. Not only that, he also has many similarities with ADCs: item reliant, weak early game, quite squishy, sustained damage, AAs a lot.
oh god, it's too beautiful, my baby's back.
