One thing that I hate about Mordekaiser rework is that he was shifted towards top lane

Playing Mordekaiser mid lane is difficult because you have to deal with range harass and somehow find a way to gap close. Yeah Mordekaiser could build spell vamp back than but he technically still has that option now!

Whereas Mordekaiser top lane just stands there, eats enemy damage, and out heals and out damages them. Only problem is that Mordekaiser top lane can't carry on his own without a team and if the enemy has CC well you're absolutely useless and can't catch anything unless you 100-0 with a flash Q.

I hope the Mordekaiser rework gives him more skill expression because top lane Mordekaiser feels so shitty to play.

I find more success with him in Mid and ADC than top.

Yes, Top has easier matchups than any other lane, simply because they're all melee and he can just push them in and bully the ever-living crap out of 'em. But you basically take up the slot reserved for your team's frontline that SHOULD provide CC, extreme durability and your team's main form of engage.

He works well mid if you play him well and bot is where he carries hardest if you got a good support. Top is just the lane where beginners should take him until they're more experienced with him.

I hope his eventual VGU fixes this discrepancy by allowing him more ways of skill expression and give him a proper niche he can take up in a team composition. Preferably even design him with Mid lane in mind because it's the shortest and most direct way to the enemy nexus and thus to victory.
