What in the actual fuck?
Now when I heard that there was going to be a change to Morde, I was actually thinking this would be a nice change of pace considering he has no way catching champions outside of the occasional slow from an item or a gank or some stupid shit like movespeed morde.
What I thought was going to happen was that they were going to give him a little bit of a boost after they removed DFG and the fact that he has a pretty low AP ratio to begin with, I could not have fucking been any more wrong about this...
What they're actually doing is making his passive based off of his maximum health he has, he hits a bitch and that bitch hit gives him a shield NOT based off of damage, but his actual health. (Emphasis on that particular fact because it comes in a second)
What this does is it makes it to where he will absolutely have to build as a tank rather as an AP carry because of the fact that his shield was what kept him alive considering his low health, keep in mind he still has no way of actually forcing people to focus him, making him a rather ineffective tank considering he wont draw any of the damage from people who actually know how to focus.
Normally I would be ok with this as long as they gave him a bit of a boost in any way considering he now has to build tank instead of a damage items because of his weak damage and starting health. Here's where the extra boost of horseshit comes into play here.
instead of giving a boost in ANY category (Excluding his lower health cost and CD, because they don't do anything without damage to back it up.) They actually REDUCED the damage he deals and cut his health Regen in half. not that it did much to begin with but apparently it was a fucking oversight of Riot to give him a 1.6748 health regen per second to being with, and it was another thing to cut his already low damage by, in order of course,
"But they made it to where he gives his ghost up to 100 AD!" You might say, "Yes, but only if you suck your junglers dick the entire game you just MIGHT actually turn them into one." would be my normal response.
To sum this little thought bubble I have concocted would be that the AP bruiser/carry that lost a portion of his damage with DFG and actually can manage to squeeze out a victory if hes really good, has been turned into a shitty version of braum, with his only tank potential being that he can stand in front of skill shots and can hit the top priority target with his ult that has no damage (Woo 12% of their health is gone, now what?) because hes a fucking TANK with depressingly low damage to being with.
1v1 potential has been cut in half with Mordes only way of even staying in the damn fight being his shield with a very low cap for what they want to do, and his ultimate that steals a base 24% of his enemies health, which isn't bad, but then he cant do a DAMN thing aside from delay the inevitable. considering AGAIN his complete and utter lack of damage.
If there is a single fucking ray of hope shining from this pile of shit then please inform me, because I cant see this being Viable.
Edit: Keyword guys, VIABLE Also get the feeling you fucks dont like my opinion and dont have the balls or logic to argue with me
. With runes and masterys it came out to 3100 Health and 320 AP.
