FIX MORDEKAISER!!!
Mordekaiser, the master of metal, the number 1. These are all titles bestowed on someone who was once truly the Lord of summoners rift,
, a champion who now is a disgrace on the battlefield. According to Elophant.com mordekaiser's popularity hasn't gone above .1% in the past month and according to lolking.net he is the 9th least Popular champ this month. I for one, have personally never seen him played by anyone other than myself. There was once a time when
was a terror to behold one of the few champs who could actually 1v5 and come out alive at the end with a ghost as a friend and a pentakill as a reward, but now he is nearly useless.
is a mid lane champ, and now a days mid lane is full of fast, ranged champions such as
and
, but
, with 340 movement speed and no slowing or crowd control effects of any kind is a sitting duck against fast opponents and ganks. In fact, according to the league of legends wiki page for
, "Mordekaiser is the only champion in the League of Legends to not having any crowd control and mobility that can help him escape in one kit." Some possible ways Riot could help this problem is, 1) giving him higher movement speed. 2) making his W effect not only form a "shield" but also give a movement buff. 3) making his E effect slow enemies. His passive ability, Iron Man is a very helpful tool in early game, but in late game, might not as well exist, in a fight his shield is quickly taken out which leaves slow, low health
a very easy target, a buff raising the max amount of shield that
can have would make him more durable in any sort of late game fight. My last complaint would be that his E effect has too small of a range if you removed the nerf that connected the siphon of destruction to
rather than letting you cast it further off would be a greatly appreciated buff, especially if the movement buff is not made.
