What it means to be Mordekaiser
Mordekaiser is a champion who gives zero fucks about the enemy's existence. They are beneath him. Mordekaiser isn't going to waste his energy to charge at some puny Mortal. Mordekaiser is going to flip them off, call them a coward for not fighting him. If they keep being cowards then he shrugs off their feeble pokes with his shield and gives them no choice but to fight him. Then he is going to hit them in the face with a massive fucking mace VERY HARD, not slap them twice with it first. Then he laughs, very loudly and constantly.
Mordekaiser is not dependant on someone else to be Mordekaiser. Mordekaiser only needs Mordekaiser to strike fear in his foes. He doesn't need a warrior lady, mermaid, yordle or mute pair of breasts to assist him. He is not some duo lane bitch. He is not a champion that chases, hunts, or dives into battle. No, battle comes to Mordekaiser. Mordekaiser stays where he is and kills anyone who dares enter his turf.
That is what it means to be a Mordekaiser. The champion on PBE isn't Mordekaiser anymore but a new champion entirely. It fails as an update because it isn't an update, PBE Morde plays completely differently to Live. It is an unwanted remake that forces the champion into shoes that do not fit. Ever tried wearing shoes that don't fit? It's not a comfy experience and you risk breaking the shoe or hurting your foot. Only one shoe fits Mordes foot, the one on PBE isn't it.
