Why aren't people Rushing Rylais on Mordekaiser?

I think triforce is garbage on Morde atm. There is no point in getting an item that amplifies your auto attacks when you aren't even supposed to land on on a good opponent in the first place.

I've played 1 good game on Morde so that makes me an expert. Rush Rylais ult the carry as soon as they pass mid lane and then watch them crawl back to their tower as you pummel slow them with Q's. Did I mention Rylais rush makes you tanky and balls?

Rush rylais ditch the triforce and watch the LP roll in.

Rage passive, Hybridization of damage, better mid-game spike, higher up front burst(being important because you can still be peeled with a rylai's), general movespeed boost from zeal, attackspeed to more reliably get off Q hits, similar HP to rylai's, extra tower pushing ability, individually more useful components.

As far as I am concerned, you should be getting both. But seeing as you have a support, Trinity is a much better first item spike, that still offers some stickiness, albeit less than rylai's. I tend to get rylai's immediately after it/boots. Rage is kinda insane on a 200 range melee with ranged abilities. Bonus movespeed is much better for avoiding ganks and getting to the fights sooner.

Trinity just does more than rylai's early on.
