What makes it a colossal failure? Because you don't like it? Because his win rates are under 50% some days? Tough titty, this is the new Morde; if you don't like it don't play it.

And the only reason you're not going to name who you're bashing is because you'll get forum banned, and you are trying to use a nonexistent loophole in the rules to do it? And you want a person to lose their job because you're upset? You should be ashamed. Your parents sure would be.

cus it completely warped him as a champion and the only people who enjoy him are those who've never played him?

Because his win rates are either insanely low or insanely high dependng on hwere he is?

because he's even more oppressive in bot than he ever was top/mid?

why ISN'T it a failure?

whoever was in charge of the rework really should be out of a job. Just look at all teh champions he's created. Every single one of them

i only really see two champs hes made that are whined about for legit reasons the rest are whined about cause they have the ability to outplay, they used to be really good but they were toned down to a balanced state, with a lot of champions on release this seems to be the way they get released in an unbalanced state(either to strong or to weak) and get adjusted from there, i honestly dont see rly any of his champs besides maybe darius and kali being a real mess. but whatever thats just my opinion.

Definitely don't think someone needs to lost their job over it, but Morde is insanely imbalanced. As OP mentioned, he's either terrible every other lane or completely dominant bot lane.

  • I've poked him repeatedly and he isn't phased at all by it.
  • I've shoved him under turret, and continued to threaten him from farming (when poke does manage to stick), only for him to later get a kill on the ADC that farmed a lot while he had barely any farm or items. (He didn't even have a support that whole time.)
  • Synergizes ridiculously well with many supports (Galio even works with him), and is very hard to impossible to try and snowball off of.
  • The insane damage on his Q, which doesn't have much clear counterplay and doesn't even need much damage to destroy anyone.
  • And as always, the bs 6v4 ult, now made more ridiculous by taking dragon ghost (which hurts pretty hard on top of it being tanky, and morde's damage. And he doesn't even have to pay his ult for it. It's not hard to make a fight into a 7v4 with his current kit. (Also, Rylai's interaction with his ult is ridiculous.)

Mind you, I wouldn't mind Morde bot being a thing, but currently, his new kit is extremely toxic for it and carries have a very hard time competing with him, especially early game.

To say this makes 0 sense. If you don't think Rioters are also summoners....not sure what to say.

One day, you're gonna have a great career and do something someone dislikes, and you're going to be disgusted by people that act like you are here. Maybe you won't even learn how much of a jerk you're being until you lose your job over it.

Failure?

My first game with new Morde was ridiculously fun. I had a patient Thresh who was okay with me trying out the new kit, he gave me some tips and working together we did great. Laning phase was a little rough, only broke even at 4/4 but didn't die after that and ended 9/4.

Is his kit weird? Yeah, totally. Is it still finding its balance point? Yeah. But a colossal failure? I disagree; I had fun and it makes him feel different.
