Mord passive is too strong and too reliable

Moody P··11 votes·5,537 views

Probably the least conditional damage of any modern juggernaut and its so strong in base and scaling.

IMHO you should chunk his sunfire aura hard and make his damage primarily come from auto attacks and his Q. Also think it needs to be harder to achieve, at either 4 or 5 stacks before activating so that the aura isn't basically a forgone conclusion in every trade

Morde has TONS of counterplay. Just don't let him get on you. It's literally no different than facing Darius, except that if Morde misses his pull, you have a HUGE window to abuse him. Half the champions in the game have abilities and passives that proc on 3 hits.

his passive is a little overloaded rn, 130 dmg + 5% max health per sec is a little much, but he needs compensation buffs

The problem is he has seriously low cool downs.. if you take a look at his cool downs it's very low. He can still punish you because he HAS this advantage. Just take the cool down keystone the damage and armor keystones and find out yourself. He needs to be nerfed because he cannot be stopped.

20ish seconds across the board except Q is low?

first of all, the least conditional dmg of any Juggernaut is darius bleed, he has to hit you once with nearly anything and he gets it, but yeah, it does feel a little ridiculous, i feel what should happen is one of these things

  1. Cut passive dmg in half, grant an additional tick of passive dmg on morde AA's
  2. Cut in half, but allow morde shield to scale (Rn it stays at 30/15 let it scale to say 60/30 or something)
  3. Cut in half, but give morde hyrbid ratios (legit, there is very limited options for manaless ap champs rn)
  4. Cut in half, but give morde 2 charges of Q

Considering how broken he is right now, its going to be cut in half and then also more nerfs to the rest of his kit.

he's not that broken though....tbh outside of his passive, he feels a lot weaker then most jugguarnauts, esp since he's lacking a real ult for dps

its literally his passive being overloaded....his ratios are actually pretty shit, Q has a 90% ap ratio when it gets the bonus...and E has like 40% ratio, but pulling too much dmg will just dumpster him and leave him olafed, he can't build some of the core ap bruiser items without wasted stats (abyssal, RoA) so he is forced to build a weird full ap build or straight tank with liandry's, this is his problem rn, he seems broken because stupid ppl feed him

He has built in 25% magic pen. That stacks additively with void, meaning he has a constant 65% pen. No shit has ratios are going to be below average, anything close to a normal character's ratios and he would destroy everything.

if he's building void, you should have no problem killing him, since he squish asf, your just looking at ratios and think, op, not realizing if he misses his E he has no gap closer, no mobility, nothing to pull you him, he's literally a sitting duck, plus darius literally has a nearly identical passive on his E but its armor pen

I think they need to lower his passive damage and move that power into his shield/heal and his W damage since it's a skillshot that can be outplayed.

Well it has to be strong. He literally has 2 damaging abilities.

4-5 stacks?

Ok, then make Darius need 10 stacks to get Noxian Might :^)

For real, how do you expect Morde to proc 5 attacks with no auto reset and two damaging abilties before the enemy just walks away. His pull doesn’t even have a slow attached, and depending on the range from which you grasp, doesn’t even pull them into auto range.

until he completes his first item. lets be real here, there is no scenario in which morde doesnt build rylais.

i honestly think rylais in general is just aids and should be deleted from the game because it hurts already slow champions more than it helps them, but thats unlikely.

i still think increasing his passive primer from 3 to 4 stacks is a good idea. his base damage is really not that crazy compared to some of the other juggers. like darius still shits on morde in a 1v1 damage wise.

His first item is Liandry's. Either way, battle mages like Annie or Swain or even Vlad rely on Rylai's to do anything without flash, so it'd be pretty dumb to punish them just because some people don't like being slowed by an item.

I hate Twin Shadows on Lux and Glacial Augment on Ahri, but that doesn't mean the items or rune should be removed just because a few champs use it to great effect.

Play aftershock Darius and dump on him. Morde is not that bad, he only becomes truly strong within ult, and he's hot garbage in teamfights since he needs to do consistent damage to shield and he's so easily pinned down with now slows unlike Darius and his pull is a worse version of Apprehend.

He's just a worse Darius, people will get over it.

I'll take a fed Aaatrox/Darius/Irelia/Riven over Morde any day.

Ugh I would rather not deal with any of them fed.

I think they should rebalance passive to be w and w to be passive imo

Good meme, now get the fuck out of here

It does over 50% of the damage pre lvl 6 It needs nerfed

I would say have it ramp up over 4s. After 4s is when he gets the movement speed and % hps

Kristoph Gavin1 votes

Sure, let's also reduce E's hitbox by half and remove the isolated bonus damage on his Q, why won't we
