what's with the board's hard-on for morde?

GigglesOMar 26, 20183 votes

Just a lot of Morde Mains out there that noone hears about. He isn't "fun to play" according to rito, so he gets no love.

All he does is spam E all laning phase.

Malicious MetalMar 26, 20182 votes

If he spams E all lane he's living in 2014 and playing the old Mordekaiser. If he's an E spammer he'll run out of health.

DeusVultMar 26, 20181 votes

same can be said for many many champs

Ekko spams Q GP spams Q Panth spams Q Yasuo spams Q etc

Bob the ToastrMar 27, 20182 votes

And how much fun is it to play against a GP or a Panth from levels 1-3?

He has amazing Character and GamePlay fantasy. Riot just fails to deliver on the latter and he's depressing to play. I think the word your looking for on how Board sees him is Sympathetic.

Could be the Passion from the Old timer players still Maining him. Or the Character analysis threads from Malicious Metal. Or the Fact his Botched Rework was the worst in League history and has been Neglected for the 3 years following it.

Or a combination of all the above.

that's entirely subjective, to me he's incredibly dull.

I think it's just some morde mains continuously raving on about him causing more people to do the same for some reason

Morde is big daddy.

MerevelMar 26, 20181 votes

A couple of bug fixes put sion as a monster in top lane. I wonder what would happen if they fixed mordekaier's bugs.

Malicious MetalMar 26, 20183 votes

The fixes introduces a bug that blew his win rate out of proportion.

Malevolent MetalMar 26, 20182 votes

Because Morde is an underdog, everyone likes rooting for the underdogs.

MordepoolMar 26, 20186 votes

Some quality of life changes making him more enjoyable to play wouldn't go unappreciated

ZackTheWaffleManMar 26, 20185 votes

All I'm asking is for 30 less bugs. Please.

Tails9016Mar 26, 20184 votes

30 less bugs

That's gonna come with about 50 bugs as a trade-off

Wild GeeseMar 26, 20185 votes

Can they get these hombre's back in the botlane for a start:

Kennen , Corki , Quinn ...

If they can't join the party, we aren't very close to opening up the botlane to much.

Milton FletcherMar 26, 20184 votes

forgetting that if 2 of those champs arent played bot when they are buffed, the melees top have to deal with them torturing them for about 2 months before nerfs.

id prefer a rework on those 2 :)

Die Weiße RoseMar 26, 20184 votes

no.

GigglesOMar 26, 20182 votes

But we want non-adc's to go botlane.

Die Weiße RoseMar 26, 20183 votes

Why? There are champions that are literally designed around the role of "AD carry". Why not play champions in the role they were designed for...

GigglesOMar 26, 20183 votes

Because Riot said that they wanted non-marksmen to be able to go botlane with this mid season update.

leakinbMar 26, 20183 votes

They won't do shit to this champ They just don't care*[slayer-jinx-wink]*

Ariel the CruelMar 26, 20183 votes

Didn't Riot officially classify Mord as an ADC? ;p

InfernapeMar 26, 20182 votes

Wouldn't buffing Morde make him busted as hell for the few people that actively play him? As much as I would love Morde buffs, I feel like that the case considering his mains usually hit 50%+ win rates on him.

GigglesOMar 26, 20181 votes

The fact that he is the 9th least played champion, and still only has a 50ish % winrate probably means he is under preforming.

I would bet that hes mostly only played by his mains too.

Yes, that's why they want him to be buffed.

Morde needs a VGU, not buffs.

Non ADC Botlane, good joke. A Team without ADC automaticly loses the game.

Riot says they are working on making it a possibility so...

RaoulMar 26, 20182 votes

Unless they change ADC Itemisation, so that they dont get crit, Damage and AS from the same build, its not gonna happen.

GigglesOMar 26, 20181 votes

But if they are working on it I still want morde buffs. It actually used to be highly possible, but its when we had those "dreaded" tanks. Just ruining the game by not dying in 5 seconds or less, while also dealing close to no damage.

FurriesAreHotMar 26, 20181 votes

The issue with making Non Marksman botlanes is that, Marksman would become entirely obsolete or the non Marksman would just be played in other lanes and shit stomp them.

DuskDaUmbreonMar 26, 20181 votes

Let me fix a few sentiments here:

Non ADC bot lanes aren't possible. Why is this? Because a melee cannot be 1) Able to match an ADC in turret-taking speed and safety, 2) Survive botlane, and 3) Actually be balanced in every other lane.

Those three things are not possible to all be true all at once. Hell, 1 and 3 aren't possible at the same time. It's just not possible. You can't have a melee able to take turrets as far and as safe as an ADC, and still be balanced in top and mid.
