Rather than spending so much time trying to fix Mordekaiser's Bugs...

Give him a high priority spot on the VGU list. Rework him ground up rather than trying to fix 160+ Bugs in the mess that is his code.

I agree that Mordekaiser could benefit from getting a VGU more than trying to fix his current bugs, and possibly make more trying to fix a few if they went at it all at once, but that would be a long time away sadly due to other priorities overshadowing Mordekaiser's problems. item 3070 Mordekaiser item 3070

Edit: Finally found the damn comment from the bug list by Naerlyn, but yeah he talks about how priorities come into play when fixing bugs and so on. http://prnt.sc/dtx4fg (Link probably wont show the picture on the board because reasons)

He's the last remaining champion with pizza feet and has one of the best thematics on that VGU list, he SHOULD be a high priority imho.

Veigar's feet are Pizza with Pineapple on top of it. Their existance doesn't deserve to be acknowledged.

Meh. Every other fantasy setting has it's malevolent uberspirit in spiky plate armor. When he gets VGU thematics is first thing that needs improvement.

High priority as in kick the flying stone thing that nobody cares about and put Mordekaiser in his place because he deserves it NOW

https://www.reddit.com/r/leagueoflegends/comments/5ken12/over_151_bugs_on_a_single_champion_mordekaisers/

This is upsetting me for a reason I didn't expect. I thought that all of these would be gameplay bugs that impact him in a significant way. The vast majority of these are basically his ghost being buggy with passives and animation or sounds not playing correctly. The way you and other players made it sound it is presented it as if he had 160+ direct gameplay bugs which is kind of disingenuous like #9 is literally saying his Q doesnt do a 1 /2 /3 anymore. This needs to be separated to show actual gameplay bugs animation and sound bugs and ghost specific bugs. There are definitely a hell of a lot of gameplay bugs thats for sure but the way it's presented just upsets me. Like number 34 isnt a bug at all it's just a statement that he has a passive he cant use on aram. quite a few champs have useless things on aram.

Edit: You could cut this number down by over 40 hell I'd be willing to waver even cut it in half just by stating that his ghost isn't applying passives correctly. Listing every single champion passive is just fluff. The W E and Q bugs were eye opening. Also some of these could be undocumented changes that happened when they patched him.

the thing that bothers me the most is mordekaiser's stupid feet

him and singed deer g0d

such stupid pizza feet

N Komaeda3 votes

Correct me if I'm wrong, but I feel Morde's greatest weakness is his melee power without a gapcloser.

A lot of chimps nowadays have insane dueling power with a gap closer. What separates Morde from them, in my mind, is that Riot wanted to nail a thematic where he uses others for his dirty work (W & R), but also being able to do it himself (Q & E).

As you said, it might just be better to scrap (hehehehe) his kit, but keep the concept. A lord of metal, who mostly wants others to do his work, but can do it himself. Insert "Fine then, I'll do it myself" Thanatos meme

I'm no Morde expert, but I feel like you're right. If Riot would listen to, I think, the most famous Morde player around the boards, where Rioters themselves are often active, something could be nailed.

Supreme Senpai691 votes

Hey doesn't Morde get mspeed moving towards his shielded ally? Morde/Janna new meta?

N Komaeda1 votes

I believe so, but as Metal-san once said:

Coming soon to a botlane™: Mordekaiser + Blitzcrank VS Janna + Ziggs

But the whole problem is that, for a semi-reliable gapcloser, you need an ally close by, which seems redundant. That's why they added it to minions too. The whole problem is that it's still extremely unreliable.

GigaPube3 votes

and then you'll complain about the new bugs, and the new kit, and the identity hes lost, and then further spiral into hating riot more and more, and the more they do the worse it gets. thats why you dont get attached to fuckin video game characters lmao

LatetotheRace1 votes

He really has no identity outside of the ult. They tried to drag some crap from his old kit, but it's just clunky and awkward to work with.

Diamond Key11 votes

Do not forget Iron Man. I would consider it part of his identity

Exactly, her permacamo is bs and breaks her.

I'd be shocked to hear that he isn't already high on that list. Meddler said elsewhere he's working on a post that updates everyone on where they sit with that. He said to look for it late Jan or early Feb, I think.

blackfootedfox1 votes

Pretty sure it was Reav3 who said that since he leads those teams but yeah, agreed if he isnt high on the list I'd be surprised

ModKnightsKemplar1 votes

Yeah, for sure. I just know that Meddler was going to post a blog about it. I don't think he leads those teams, but I'm sure he has some say about what they do because he's the lead designer.

Mordekaiser needs a VGU more than Galio and Swain do IMO.

LatetotheRace1 votes

Well I would guess Galio is about 50%+ At the moment, so he's coming next. Swain is also just about as much of a wreck as Mordekaiser.

macromite1 votes

the problem probably in lies with mordes identity.

Riot hates lifesteal and comparable mechanics on any character that isn't an adc, and morde is pretty much the purest form of sustain and damage in league.

an adc gets his ults worth of healing every 2 auto attacks. Yeah, that isn't much of a boon.

non adc's with lifesteal like effects? you mean warwick, the rework they just revealed less than a day ago

They gutted the reliability of his passive, and made him more of a riskier farming champion.

See the problem?

ModAcademy Kayn1 votes

Worker: "Sir, there seems to be other more dire cracks in other dams, not to mention the inner workings of those dams are more apt to damage the environment should they be used."

Manager: "Nah, fuck it, this one only has cracks. Some of them aren't even cracks, just chalk lines that look like cracks, so we're doing this one first."

My god would you shut up about Morde already. Jesus Christ. Bitch more about the champion that probably has the SMALLEST PLAYERBASE next to Aatrox. Legit I am tired of seeing your several posts a day about that stupid champ. I honestly wish Riot would just ban you off the boards.
