Why I think Galio's VGU Pod should rework Mordekaiser
So, with Reav3 already stating that they haven't really nailed down who the Evelynn team is going to rework after they finish up the Widowmaker I decided to talk a little bit about why they should be doing Mordekaiser. Besides him actually needing a VGU anyways.
I personally feel Warwick/Urgot's team would be more suited to do someone like Swain, who I really think should be their next project, but this isn't about Swain, this is about Mordekaiser.
Before we get into reasons WHY Mordekaiser should be reworked by them let's take a walk down memory lane:
#Past Projects:
https://www2.pic-upload.de/img/33305862/Yorick_VU_splash_concept_02.gif Yorick, the Shepard of Lost Souls Disregard my 27% ranked win rate with Yorick for the time being.
Yorick was the first rework I really thought marked the beginning of a new era of VGU's, him having come dangerously close to dethroning Sion as THE VGU in my eyes.
They took an underplayed champion with almost no real backstory and thematic appeal and just improved on it. And that's coming from someone who really enjoyed old Yorick (Running down carries with your cancerous ghouls was one of the most fun experiences I had playing). Yorick is a huge success, they embraced the cool things about a "good guy" having to do "bad things" for his mission. Yet he retains the appeal of old Yorick, matched with awesome thematic cohesion between kit and lore.
His kit in itself is ingenious. Everything serves a purpose and it all flows really well, while still retaining the heavy feel. This is something that's going to be important throughout this thread. Yorick feels heavy and lumbering but he never feels clunky, besides the AI, which is supposed to be like that anyways.

But they prove me wrong. Galio is, in my opinion, the best VGU to this point. And I know some oldschool Galio mains will disagree with this notion, but it's the same shtick with old Sion.
New Galio is awesome. His theme perfectly translates into the game. You just feel like a Colossal Symbol of Justice! Galio's character, be it VO, looks or simply his theme, never feels out of place and is reflected on his gameplay.
And just like Yorick his KIT feels HEAVY and SATISFYING to use.
#How does Mordekaiser fit into all of this?
Unlike Warwick's team, I feel Mordekaiser is more in line with what the Galio Pod is known for. They've tackled a lot of champions with huge game-health issues (Yorick, Galio and now Evelynn) while not only retaining their old appeal but building on that.
Most of their old traits can be found in their theme/character but they've got so much more to show for. And this is what Mordekaiser suffers from. He's just Sauron 2.0 with some metal gags attached to it. He needs More in terms of character and theme in order to truly be a great character. He has the potential to be one of the coolest champions in the game but he's held back by being a Metal sterotype with a very basic "Death knight" archetype.
But it the main selling point here is his Kit. Galio's team has never ceased to amaze me when it came to translating character into gameplay.
And they've got a track record of Heavy, Juggernaut(y) champions.
Mordekaiser needs to feel HEAVY and SATISFYING like Galio and Yorick, both still having pretty basic kits but you really feel the weight of their spells without them being clunky, not in the slightest.
Besides; Juggernauts, Heavy Champions and total Badasses seem to be their forte.
And this is exactly what Mordekaiser should be.
Honestly, this thread doesn't really serve a real purpose other than to vent my hype over the next few VGU's being unveiled and me just really loving the direction the past few updates went for.
VGU's are, in my opinion, the thing I look forward the most.
No new champion has ever captured my attention as much as a VGU and my most played champions to this point have all received a VGU. Except Mordekaiser.
Anyways, I'm looking forward for the next VGU, can't wait what they do to that disgusting abomination of a champion that is the Urgod.
who was fairly well received (except by low elo who are destined to hate him forever, oh well)
Mages had 
who went through some rough patches, but is now sitting at a very fine spot if you ask me
Tanks had 
who, if you look past the retarded numbers riot put on her kit, is actually decent in terms of design
and 
(who apparently is not even a juggernaut anymore...)
Mages had 
nuff said
Tanks had 
which was an absolute disaster and will probably be seen as the worst update in the class
.
and then
