Why does QSS remove new Morde's R? (This is not a rant)

So, here is what the tooltip of QSS says atm: "ACTIVE-UNIQUE – QUICKSILVER: Removes all crowd control debuffs from your champion (90-second cooldown)." So, Malzahar R is a CC, Pant W is CC, Zed's R is NOT a CC, Fizz's R is NOT a CC, new Morde's R is NOT a CC .

I do not want this post to be a rant, but this truly defies logic. Btw, since GP's W is basically QSS with a heal, a pirate can apparently escape the Realm of death to which he was dragged by simply eating oranges :)

I guess this is the case just so adc players have a counter play... I'm sure they would have appreciated this much thoughtfulness for Akali's W hiding her under turret ( we all would have)... But either Riot turns QSS to remove everything, like the old days, or not remove new Morde's R.

Cc doesn't have to mean immobilized. His ult is crowd control, he's removing 1 champion from a team fight and confining them to a small area that they can't leave.

You can see Mordekaiser's ult as a CC, tho. He is basically removing a champion from the map and throws them into another, identical looking map, without all the units on it.

So it is kinda a displacement.

Lol, I suppose GP will be as fun for Morde, like he already is for Urgot.

They know Morde's R is a terribly-designed ability. They have to make sure he's weak.

Because his ultimate is a game design sin and they added the QSS interaction so you have some means to actually deal with it

Also doesn't make sense. They removed the ability for it to take off Zed R because it made balancing Zed too hard because he was basically balanced with you having QSS. I also don't think it removes Camille/Fiora R either but I would have to check.

I mean they are leaving in so many dumb interactions with other champions so I'm glad they are giving people the option.

Just an example...

If he ults yorick none of his pets follow over to the realm.

If you save your maiden for the death realm it immediately dies when the ability ends.

Also his Wall will not follow so you have to save that as well.

So yeah that ult is toxic as hell and that's only one example of when he removes most of a champions kit.

Because morde isn't an assassin and his name doesn't start with z and end in ed
