There are a ton of morde mains on the boards, but morde laning feels so bad to play against

He doesnt interact with his laning opponent at all

He uses W on the wave and can get a wave into tower before your jungler can respond to gank. No melee champ can fight him because he gets a big wave advantage early and has tons of sustain from his W. More if he goes FF.

But to be completely honest, I would be fine going against all of this if he would just let me farm under tower, but instead he can continually go in for E's and use his W to deny cannon minions with its minion heal.

Riot, make it so that Morde cannot heal minions that are W'd. Everything else can remain the same, but going in for the usual 2 hits vs melee or 1 tower hit for ranged and having it denied because morde heals the minion before the tower shot is so infuriating. let alone him denying every cannon that i see for the first 15 minutes of the game

I agree. In certain matchups, he can make laning very oppressive. Especially melee matchups where the opponent cannot get close to him in fear of getting dunked by the insane damage on his Q, so they just get poked by his E and W every time they try and get CS.

Well, anything OP or ranged can do well against him. Yasuo, Camille, Irelia, ranged cancer, etc. Even Renekton can go even with him, and playing Renekton makes me hate my life in the current meta. Plus, we all know Riot doesn't give a shit about melee champions or their troubles, so your best bet is probably hoping for a morde bug that will prevent him from healing minions.
