So, can we talk about Mordekaiser?

I want to ask some things.

Does his Q seem right to have with the nerf in MS? Or should I ask, is it right to nerf his MS when his Q got the change it got? Does anyone feel that his Q not giving much for a shield seems wrong?

Should his W really have a handy cap? Why does it not have a more impactful passive? Does it make Mordekaiser weaker? Is it even helpful or strong?

Is it right to have Mordekaiser's E still cost health? Does Mordekaiser's E seem less impactful?

Is the dragon pet really needed? Is it useful? Why can't Mordekaiser get other monsters as pets?

Does his passive seem weaker? Does it really help? Does it seem like it fits a tank more than a Fighter? By that, does it resemble Malphites only not as useful? Does it dwindle too fast?

Does Mordekaiser need to lose health for his abilities anymore after his rework? Is his spell vamp like it was? Can Mordekaiser still use AP like he use to? Does his position feel forced? Will Mordekaiser be able to cope with ADC's that out range him and even have better MS?

Was Mordekaiser weak before the update? Did the update help?

I've already asked this on the PBE boards.

I feel his W forces him to a supportive role, which is annoying, his Q lacks the wave clear it used to have, the dragon is excessively powerful, hit level 6 if you get dragon you can push towers like no tomorrow, it's really fucking overpowered and unnecessary, how are you supposed to counter that kind of skill? If his team gets drake you're almost guaranteed a tower or two, or even a champion since you can force it to attack the champions with it's insane damage.

I now ask further:

Do you think Mordekaiser should have a supportive W with the kit he has?

Is his Q worse than it use to be?

If we did away with the dragon, what would you buff in Mordekaiser's kit and/or change?
