So Morde is a support now?

HE isn't even a good one.

His q doesn't do a thing for him in lane, because he still has no mobility or cc. W doesn't do much either because you have to be ontop of the enemy. E deals damage?

He's suppose to substitute an ADC actually, even more unbelievable than him Supporting. xD

YEa, I'm playing him on the pbe, there is no way...

He doesn't have anything that really deals damage, and without cc or shield generation (because he doesn't deal damage) I don't see how this is supposed to work.

Oh no, they're not trying to make him a support. They are trying to force him to be an ADC.

Mordekaiser's new W passive means that he gets full experience for killing minions in a duo lane, where the enemy will get less. So when his enemies are at level 4, Morde will be at level 6.

So it incentivizes Morde to become the ADC, because he doesn't get anything out of that passive for killing minions.

In fact, it basically FORCES Morde into the role of ADC, because he can't cast W without an ally present. And since he can't be a support, which as you rightly pointed out is not optimal, the only places he can optimally go are botlane ADC, so that he can be close to Dragons to make up for the rest of his kit being nerfed, or duo jungle [aka "leave the botlane to be raped yay!"]

I hate this rework and want it to be scrapped. Mordekaiser is not an ADC, and this retarded experiment should have been tried on a new champion or an item.

Morde replaces the ADC. His recommended build path right now is Trinity and Rylai's into tanky.

I dont know what to tell you if you are doing no damage, because morde's Q at level 18 has a base of around 1300 damage across all 3 hits.

His shield generation was improved by the addition of the 15% shield bonus per enemy hit with E. He is also the only bot lane carry with built in sustain for both him and his support, alongside his massive level advantage he'll consistently have. E shield + range + scaling + Morde's 200 range autos make farming fairly safe for him as well.
