It would be funny and promote morde top/mid/jungle.

No. Rift herald already yields enough benefits.

Besides, it does not respawn so getting only ONE clone would not be worth the effort on Riot's part.

Not to mention how hard that thing hits early game.

Does he get an Elder Dragon?

That's the real question. The damage is the same on Elder as all the others but you honestly can't ignore that huge body and monstrous HP for tanking come late game if he could have it.

That much is true.

Well, actually, at least mordekaisers gives movement speed and deals more damage.

The best Mordekaiser player in the world plays him primarily in the jungle.

am not saying its impossible but its terrible. you can jungle with almost every champion. some are more viable than others. he takes too much damage from jungle hordes and his early base stats are bad. its all about the first clears. you can master any champion (pun not intended) and jungle with them.

Morde can solo red/blue buff at level 1 without sustaining massive damage due to his W. You can clear both sides of the jungle without a single health potion and still have enough to do it again.

Healing 100-120 from any camp that isn't gromp is a pretty good thing. while doing damage and can be done every 10 seconds... ish.

Not really. His sustain is insane, just put 3 ranks into your W and you're set. His clearing is average, but not bad. While ganks are very meh, he really excels in counterganks, where he brings a lot of damage and utility in form of heal for his ally. Also, very easy access to dragon, which shouldn't be ignored. He is not the best pick ever, nor I doubt he will ever become a competitive pick, but he is very viable and strong in right hands.

Morde is absolutely not a terrible jungler. You just have to know how to use him effectively.

Get runic echoes and chilling smite on him and your Q will hit like a truck. He has no CC, but your W can give you and your ally incredible gank and chase potential on top of the heal. He's also a good duelist if someone tries to get in your face.

Ah, but therein lies the problem. Rito is trying to promote Morde as an "alternative to marksman bot lane" rather than him top/mid/jungle. Why would they promote him in other lanes after trying so hard to force mechanics that would turn him into a bot laner? :p

Can you think of a band-related pun for it, though?

The dragon ghosts work because Dragonforce.

Sire Hippington2 votes

Well, there is an estonian heavy metal band called 'Herald'. That should work, no?

He already does. At least a separate Elder Dragon ghost from what I can tell; Im too lazy to try and differentiate the elemental ones' ghosts (they probably have their own ghosts too).

Only Elder is different, and all that's different is that it is bigger and has more HP.

i think that would be pretty sweet

The Yetii Rider1 votes

Morde gets the dragon ghost to help with his pushing so he can take the place of a marksman.

The Rift Herald doesn't accomplish that goal. It's on the wrong side of the map and it doesn't deal splash damage with its attacks, so it doesn't shove waves.

Mordekaiser needs a Sion level Revamp. Plain and simple.

moldncheze1 votes

I believe this should be a thing. A control on the rift Harald from Morty's ult is a game changer, and as far as I'm concerned we need more game changers in league.

no, bc its no Dragon??? [zombie-brand-facepalm]

what about Mordekaiser getting a Vilemaw ghost on Twisted Treeline? it would be funny, promote Morde in 3s, and we'd finally be able to see Vilemaw's backside :3
