Riot not adressing Mordekaiser bugs CAN'T be a way to balance him
For the last days I have seen many posts that speak about the almost 200 bugs that Mordekaiser currently has (I'm sure that the new tank items will bring 30/40 more, the ítem that gives 40 or 100% Increased health? That shit is going to be buggy as hell with Mordes shield and ghosts).
This bugs have been known for a long time, yet Riot hasnt solved them. It could be because a VGU is coming soon, and It would be a waste of time and resources, cause they just dont care about a champion with such a small playerbase... I am not here to discuss If those are valid reasons to leave a champion in such a state. What I want to talk about, is those people who argue that this is a way to balance the champion, because he would be too strong without the bugs.
It doesn't hold up. Why?
Because most of them are not consistent.
Let's put a example. If morde builds a titanic hydra, and activates his q, then tries to cancel the autoattack animación with the hydra, It won't, he will just do a normal q enhanced autoattack, also, the hydra aoe won't be there.
I'm "fine" with this bug. Hydra doesn't work, alright, I still have another 40 damage items which work on him.
Another bug: Your w final "pop" will randomly not damage minions.
Its not something that will change the course of a game, It will be annoying as hell, and Morde will lose some farm, in fact, most experienced Mordekaiser Mains take for granted that this is going to happen at least to one Minion on a wave, and position so that they can autoattack any Minion after the w procs, to farm It.
Its like having a drunkard punch you in the face each time that you go to work, he isn't that strong, so It doesn't really hurts, and after two weeks you start wearing a hokey mask. It makes you feel retarded, but It isn't such a big deal.
Now lets go for my favourite.
Your w will randomly not heal you when used versus Champions.
What
The
Hell
In my last 3 Mordekaiser games I can show you 2 situations in which I was killed in escenarios that where an easy double kill If the ability had worked properly.
There is NO WAY that not being able to rely on your most important trading ability when you most need It is a way to balance a champion.
This is not a drunkard punching you, is the government allowing your boss to fire you for no reasons at all, with no compensation, while people around you say that its fine because It only happened to one person and not the whole office.
It CANT be a tool to balance Mordekaiser, there MUST be another reason, because If anybody thinks that there is any single part of this bug that is even admisible in a competitive game, they are mentally unable to rationally discuss about competitive enviroments.
