What if Mordekaiser could sustain his W?

I’m an avid Mordekaiser player and I really liked the changes made to him in patch 5.4. However now that his W (Creeping Death) offers a little bit of movement speed, I feel like he now suffers from the same syndrome that Gangplank does with Raise Morale (E). By this I mean that Mordekaiser now needs to stop to cast W on an ally in order to speed up (which is weird since he doesn’t have a casting time when he casts W on himself). Mordekaiser barely has time to catch up to his ally since the effect only lasts 6 seconds. I wonder how strong it would be if Mordekaiser could sustain his W like Swain does his R, provided that the health cost to sustain Creeping Death increases every second and maybe the damage is nerfed a bit. Thoughts?

Too strong unless it was capped after awhile.

Why would it be too strong though? If you leave it on for too long you'd risk losing too much health unless you're in the middle of a fight and your spellvamp is helping you regain the health cost. It fits with the sustained dmg tanky mage archetype that Riot wants him to be.
