@Riot - Morde and Udyr. Scrap them and start over.

I mean think about it.

Udyr has always been hot garbage. His kit fundamentally sucks because it loses to any form of kiting and there's nothing you can do about it aside from somehow getting a level + item lead. How are you gonna do that unless you're against a disorganized team? It's trash. Start over.

Morde's problem is that he has absolutely no utility and a very low skill floor. Over the years I think design limitations have been kept on his kit. No CC, no mobility. Ok, it's been 8 years. Time to give up.

Udyr with merc treads, steraks, and unflinching can give a hefty amount of tenacity/slow resist. Not to mention late game you can buy an iron pot. Anyone have the numbers of how much slow resist / tenacity you can get running all this crap? Udyr may in fact be hard to actually kite because of the bear stance charge + passive. 50+% tenacity on Udyr would be hilarious to watch imho.

Morde's problem is something like 180 bugs. His kit works relatively well as a solo top laner AFAIK. His utility is built into his aoe metal buff thing and the R. He has no CC because he has ghost dragons and people. The lack of CC/mobility is intentional.

Look at all that wasted gold on a garbage stat

Morde doesn't offer anything that another champ doesn't do better alot better.

Merc treads provide MR, reasonable MS and tenacity. Steraks is actually a really good item. It provides FAR MORE than just tenacity. I head that steraks has a pretty interesting synergy with Triforce Unflinching is a RUNE and therefore costs 0 gold during the game. so i don't understand how i have wasted all that gold on a 'garbage' stat. Most of these are toss ins for virtually nothing.

You can say the same for most champions though? There is tons of overlap between champs who share similar roles. A stupidly long list of confirmed bugs on the other hand can make and or break a champion.
