Why is morde so squishy?

GigglesO··5 votes·763 views

Please before you downvote just hear me out. When his only option is to actually just run, and by run I mean walk, at the enemy team shouldn't he have higher base stats?

I just faced a lulu and sure she was masters last season/D2 this season, but I got absolutely wrecked. Before you laugh, keep in mind I have 1500 games on morde this season alone, and have been playing him since season 1. I'm even in the leader boards for most experienced morde players in the NA. Even though I have that many games on morde and am Diamond 5 blah blah blah, more crap you don't want to hear about, I don't understand how I'm supposed to function in a high cc environment.

Now before you say "Get merc treads" ok, so this was on TT and I had Stereks + Moonflair, and I could hardly even touch her once let alone auto attack her.

I'm not necessarily asking for buffs, even though they would be nice. I just really want to know what you are supposed to do in the case of a full ap lulu/ sedj and ect... tank items aren't sufficient enough to let you live past the cc, and building damage won't stop you from getting cc'd...

Plz help, A lowly D5 GigglesO

Mordes Defensive steroid works on him only if he is in range to deal damage and since most Champions outrange him you could see why he is squishy when he has terrible Base health and garbage base resistances

Which is why I'm still curious about why he is so squishy, shouldn't he have more base stats than an adc?

Not aslong as the bug dumb dragon Gimmick is eating all his base stats

They shouldn't have added that in the first place.

He really should be a slow motherfucker that has beasting HP and resistances. Sure you can poke him, but with his Shield, high raw durability, sustain and godly damage. only a retard or fed+skilled bastard should even think of jumping morde.

But sadly he is fragile to compensate for his shield and sustain. That really makes him more of a battle mage, not a AP jugg.

Morde needs work and think about how much the pet dragon takes up in his power budget on a mode you can even use it.

can't even use it.

Fixed.

Also, you are right, morde does need some work. His ghost dragon takes up so much of his power budget, that even his normal ghosts feel like you are missing stats. It would be pretty easy to readjust some of that transnational power into base stats, but do you have any suggestions for his current state of balance?

besides a rework to get him out of the botlane adc role not really. because hes not even functioning in that. but to be fair hes gonna suck hard on tt because of his ult

All they need to do for that is remove his exp passive, and give him a fully self castable W, and then make up for the W passive being gone as well.

He's squishy, but you're supposed to get wrecked by Lulu if you play melee.

You mean, your supposed to get wrecked by ranged if you play melee in LoL. Have you seen the amount of cc and how easy it is to kite in this game?
