I disagree that Morde has to go bot lane

I haven't been playing for a while so there are definitely quite a few changes I am not aware or not really familiar with. However it seems that after the Morde rework people are wrapped in the mindset that this guy has to go bot due to his W and R's condition.

And that makes me think. I am a long time Mordekaiser player/lover since S1/2, even though I have never used him to reach high elo or something like those, I would still argue that he is definitely viable everywhere else to an extent just like he was before. Though he might face rocky hills here and there, however it's absolutely possible to run Morde in any other lane.

Why?

1. Morde didn't always use W in lane anyway. Considering it originally had a 20 seconds CD or something along the lines, hence it was mostly reserved for aggression, such as ganking. Now he may not use it when he's alone, yes, but the potential offensive power for when it can be used (gank?) is HUGE. That's why he should still be capable of functioning in top and mid (or even jungle).

2. His doesn't need to have the dragon ghost all the time. Yes, having a dragon pet is cool and it gives the team a huge power up. But that doesn't mean Morde should be stuck in bot lane, solely waiting to become level 6, as the spell's original function from before the rework is still there. If you're playing him mid or jungle, you can still get access to dragon fairly easily and shouldn't be that much of a problem. In top lane though, you can still capture the enemy laner's soul and rush down the top turrets, and if you have to get dragon, I am sure there is Teleport to help as well.

That's why I personally think Morde doesn't have to be at bot and is in fact, able to go anywhere he pleases.

Thoughts?

EDIT: That pic is horrid, not like I can take it off. Oh well.
