Mordekaiser needs a serious nerf
I'm tired of this goddamn champion, honestly. I'm at the point where I want to ban him virtually every game because of how ungodly annoying he is to fight. His entire kit is fundamentally toxic to the game, especially with new Conqueror.
First, let me begin by saying that he has a 52.34% win rate according to op.gg He also has a fairly high play rate, sitting at a 3.9% play rate, which is fairly high. Not the highest, mind you, but still extremely high.
To discuss Morde lets first talk about Conqueror, which is one of the things that makes him so annoying to fight. He stacks it incredibly quickly, and the extra damage healing on top of his good scalings. (.60 ratios on both his Q and his E). This healing also applies on the burn damage from his passive.
Speaking of his passive, in lane, he can basically just run at you. After level 2, there's basically no escaping him. He pulls you, autos, Qs, and then he runs at you, slowly burning your HP away. He has a shield to stop you from trying to engage against him, or negate almost all of your damage against him. He gains bonus movement, so you can't out run him unless you have a dash, but that assumes you picked after you knew they had a Mord. His pull has pretty insane range, so trying to stay away from him is extremely hard.
His kit also works too well with the items he builds. He already does DoT % based damage, so Liandry's is a no brainer. It makes him even tankier as a bruiser while also letting you burn down enemies. Building Liandry's? Why not also go Crystal Scepter? It grants a slow to make them even more screwed as they try to run from you while also granting more HP to make him tankier.
His stored damage scales off his bonus HP, so getting Liandry's+Rylai's is granting you 600 bonus HP, which extends your shield. Because you can convert that shielding into healing (50% at max rank), this just makes his kit stupidly cohesive with the items he buiilds. By that logic, let's also build Spirit visage for another 450 HP. How I'm getting effectively 300 extra HP through my shield. From here I can go tank or I can go items like Zhonya's that give me even more AP.
So I can go something like (In no particular order) Sorcerer's, Liandry's, Rylai's, Spirit Visage, Zhonya's, Thornmail and still do a rediculous amount of damage. I'm also tankier than any other character that will build those items because I'm effectively adding tons of health to myself by making my stored damage amount higher.
On top of all that, his Q still hits for 600-800 late game on single targets, which is guaranteed in ultimate. I feel his kit is extremely bloated and could use negative adjustments.
that thing becomes 151.02% gold efficiency very quickly.
barely meets the 110% mark.
