CertainlyT is still silent about the Mordekaiser rework

Big Lincoln··8 votes·637 views

How long's it going to take before he answers our concerns?

How long will it take before the people who invested real time into this champion and mastering him, and not just the short-sighted lemmings who are only hype about "breaking the meta" (you know, in a Riot-endorsed manner of course!), get a response after weeks of asking and begging?

How on earth does he get to be the only person who says Mordekaiser is unhealthy in a solo lane out of everyone who reworked him, and they just pack up and say "Well, CertainlyT said it, let's go with his idea"?

What are you going to do about Mordekaiser now having the lowest winrate of any top and mid laner, dropping almost 10% in both roles and only kept up on the average by his inflated winrate as an ADC?

What are you going to do about the kit that you made hyper-binary and almost unusable if he doesn't have a 3-level lead and 6 kills walking out of lane?

We deserve to have a proper explanation. And we deserve to have it from the guy who headed this travesty of a rework.

He doesnt care about the rework.

Because the League community is filled with soul-less monsters. The second he opens his mouth he will get barraged with death threats, "people" wishing death and cancer upon him and his family.

Yeah, it is totally our fault that CertainlyT couldnt even make sure the patch notes for Mordekaiser were accurate.

Based on what he's said/people have said about him, I think he couldn't be happier that Mordekaiser isn't viable in solo lane anymore and that he's waiting to tune him based on his performance in botlane alone. I'd guess he sees all the consternation the rework has caused among SoloKaiser players and just thinks people are whining about their unhealthy champ being stripped from them. Maybe he has a little sympathy and feels a twinge of guilt, but it's the kind parents feel what they "know what they're doing is the right thing for their children to grow."

I think he's arrogantly hijacking a champion to single-handedly (and in his mind heroically) "break" the meta.

It is also worth noting that, it seems, the idea that Mord is too unhealthy to be Solo came from CertainlyT himself.

According to Scruffy, the rework team did believe Mordekaiser Solo was perfectly balanceable, and were counting on players being able to still take him Solo as they are used to. It is CertanlyT that, apparentely, decided otherwise.

Wouldnt be surprised if he also had the idea to completely remove the metal from hix VFX. The Patch Notes being incorrect in general when it came to Mordekaiser suggests severe mis-communication, so i have a hard time believing that CertainlyT actually cared about this.

I think characterizing anyone as the "victim" here is going a little too far. Are there elements of the league community that are immature and toxic? Absolutely. Are they often disproportionately vocal? Yep.

Why is it like that with CertainlyT but not most other rioters? They're all exposed to the same cesspool subset of the community. I think it's because a large part of the community doesn't like him because of champions/changes he makes to the game, and how he makes them/communicates about them. Doing things the wrong way isn't the right response to this (immature, toxic) voicing of community opinion.

i bet less people would be pissed at him if he ever did anything based on criticism from players who play as and against the cesspool of creations he's made for this game
