@Mordekaiser Veterans: Item/Rune/Mastery Builds

Fat Bastard GOD··1 votes·505 views

DISCLAIMER - The build I am talking about I have no actually tried in a bunch of normals/ranked. Take this thread with a pinch of salt.

So recently I have been playing a lot of BOT games (AI) because I am playing on a trash computer too weak to play normals on. I've been testing items on Morde, and I made up a new build I call "Ass Pounder Morde". I've seen Malicous Metal's classic build item 3116 ,item 3053 , item 3111 , item 3146 , item 3065 OR item 3742 ,item 3157 ) and as much as I love it, anyone who builds MR or armor, chances are you will be dealing negative damage to them. And though this build is very strong on Morde vs squishy teams, and those clutch Sterak's/Zhonya's moments, agaisnt tankier foes, Ass Pounder seems stronger.

Ass Pounder Morde is primarily built up of item 3116, item 3020 ,item 3001 , and item 3151 . This gives a delicious 50 MR pen. Bringing hybrid pen runes, and the precision mastery (hybrid pen), you get double penetration. This build is also pretty tanky for Morde, and I think it fits his kit quite well. I've also theorized about building Banner of Command on him, considering it's actually pretty decent stats and minion upgrade, and Morde's wave clearing.

What are your thoughts? Is the precision mastery worth taking? Is Stormraiders Surge even worth? (I take it all the time) Is the build weak/unrealistic?

Why hybrid penetration runes? Do they have higher values than MPen ones? (I don't remeber their numbers right now).

If not then go for staright magic pen as all of Morde damage is magic.

Morde's E has a .6 AD scaling. Morde's Q also has an AD scaling of .5 to 1.8. Gigantic scaling. I figure hybrid pen runes would give more value than magic pen. Hybrid pen runes have like 3 less points of magic pen, but have a good amount of armor pen.

Scaling isn't the same as damage output. If you check, all of Mordekaiser's skill deal magic damage which gets augmented also by AD.

Oh dear... You have got to be kidding me. I spent all that time getting those runes... Thanks for telling me. I thought the damage was split...

It isn't, yet if you rock my build you get 250ish AD anyways so armor pen might even be a good stat. I have a set of hybrid pen runes myself that I experimented with some time ago.

Also, on topic. I do get Abyssal a bit more often nowadays, seeing that I play Morde Mid a lot more

Guess I f'd up. I hope Riot could refund those now useless runes... Thanks for re-assuring this knowledge. http://31.media.tumblr.com/104f4c945c84e910200a854bd0fadac8/tumblr_inline_o0d5nkeO411t90roa_500.gif

Well you have a good start for an hybrid ADC midlaner.

Arm pen would be good if you find yourself AAing outside of Qs which happens really rarely in my experience.

Shh... trying to make it less painful having dropped so much IP on runes you won't be using.

Or you're like me, not wanting ANYTHING so you just drop every last IP on health runes and get a rune page that gives you 500 health but nothing else.

Oh.. well.. I'm kind of oblivious to this kind of kindness xD

Usually I just spend too much on things I don't need ._. (fortunally this only applies to ingame valutes and not real money).

Have you ever tried Trinity, Sterak's, Visage, Deadman's, Merc's, Rylai's, Sterak's build on Morde? 4300 HP bruiser/tank.
