Mordekaiser is so fucking bad and needs a nerf

Winner0304··12 votes·4,723 views

Mordekaiser is fucking terrible. I'm sorry for my cursing, but he needs to be instantly fixed. My entire team felt the same way. I was a fed lux (because the mid laner was inting) and I was 19/0/0- then Mordekaiser just comes in. He was 5/0/0 and 2 levels below me, and yet he instantly melted me. It isn't even funny how fucking broken he is. The Mordekaiser wasn't even good as he kept missing his abilities, yet he still just melted everyone. The only time we could kill him was when the entire team went up against him solo, and even then 2 or 3 of us would die. His Ult is even worse. Even if your at full health, him ulting on you was an instant death sentence. He would just ult you, and once he was done with you, he would have taken no damage at all and go on to melt the rest of the team. He ended up with 25/3/5 as his final score, and I went to 24/10/10- an instant 10 kills, 7 of which were solo kills by Mordekaiser. It is truly disgusting how broken he is, and he should never have been made this powerful.

So, a very high range mage, got into melee range of a bruiser, and died

no gap closer and rylai doesnt exist. you right.

while i think op is overreacting a bit, morde is absurd and needs to be toned back big time.

Lux out ranges everything mordekaiser does

Unless he flashed on her, no real reason to get caught by him, he doesn't have a dash unless he gets prot belt and even his pull is fairly short

Flash exists. Also even if Morde gets outranged. What happens if a Annie flash stuns you from over a wall? No dodging there. Also protobelt but you mentioned that. Did I mention his passive gives Ms?

if flash exists then lux can also flash, no?

He could just ult the Lux, and combined with protobelt that's about 600 range which is pretty scary, and Lux isn't going to sit super far back 100% of the time or else her abilities become extremely easy to dodge, and her shield might not reach the shifting frontline of other teamfights. Not to mention that Lux deals negligible damage to bruisers and tanks, and is only actually good at damaging backlines, forcing her to move up.

No Lux sits 1000 units away and prays to God every time they throw an E hoping the very tip of it reaches the enemy tank.

He literally has a pull lol, not to mention you can't always be at your best range and mord shouldn't be your entire focus in a teamfight. Gotta bring down the hypercarry hiding in the back somehow.

How many patches in a row is this? 3 since the relaunch and still busted af?

He needs Zoe'd. Hit every single part of his kit into the ground and only afterward start slowly introducing power back.

Passive base duration down 5s -> 3s, move %health damage to a bonus 1/3/5% per tick based on R's rank

Q base damage down, level scaling removed, and single-target damage increased to not quite full compensation: 5-139 + 75/95/115/135/155 +60% AP -> 60/80/100/120/140 +50% AP; single target bonus: 20/25/30/35/40% -> 60%

W can't gain meter unless it is off cooldown

E width decreased 180 -> 150; deals 75% damage to minions and monsters

R cooldown 140/120/100s -> 180/150/120s

So you were a squishy mage and you let a bruiser get to you and he won?

Gee, what a shocker!

I agree, after playing him in mid lane, he could easily fucking destroy me for no reason at all, being tanky af and bursting for such a high damage for no reason is ridiculous

Morde is so OP that he can build AP tank and still deal tons of damage and still delete squishies lol especially Yasuo.

This is my core build on him now: item 3151 item 3116 item 3065 item 3020 item 3083 +any armor item. All he has to do is stay alive and the passive does the rest in teamfights just by AAing champs. As long as the other team is stuck near him in that aoe passive its GG and if a CC tank like Braum or Leona is on his team then every teamfight is an autowin for him. Morde is currently stronger than majority of the other AP users with less AP required to deal alot of damage.

This is the match your on about right, where is your teams grievous wounds? yer playing against a conqueror morde (with his shield heal thing and visage) with only 15 seconds of grievous wounds every 180 seconds or so. He should be difficult to kill if ye don't use the methods available and besides you no one had item 3135 for his MR, morde may be slighly OP but that doesn't mean your team shouldn't be punished for itemizing badly.

While you where farming the glorified cannon minion which was the annie (diminishing returns for death spree) for ten of your kills so that makes you not as fed as normally would with that KD so her gold value was low until reset at 30 mins (unless assists resetted her value earlier) morde was killing other lanes and actually killed you when he was 2-0 and you were 4-0 (all annie kills so could be less ahead).

Morde is OP and needing nerfs but not nearly as OP as you say he is, if you build the right items against him hes far weaker and has the same weakness as other bruisers, he aint no mundo whose ult is balanced around the enemy having grievous all the time. A morello or anti-heal knife thing weakens him substantially.

Oh and you failed to mention that ye won 4 vs 5 against him, with a level 7 qiyana. Good job on beating a team with a number disadvantage it aint easy in this burst meta.

Not until they release a $50 skin for him and pillage the players that have abused him.

Lux might not have flash always when Morde does. Runes or ya know that fact that Morde is melee and dosent need flash to escape if he's fed. Morde will probably have flash more often than lux

I think the title should be "So fucking good". It just doesn't read well in it's current state.

The dark lord is definitely not that tank... If you stick around after his passive pops off, you're stupid or got CCed. You never wanna cluster in a teamfight anyway, unless it's one pers and a tank. He also jus got nerfed. What makes him strong is similar to brand(and exactly like Darius), except it's pull, whack, DoT. Instead of boom, stun, DoT.

This is, and how I will always describe my precious dark lord. AP Darius. [darius-angry]

After reading your post, and my own experiences with MORDE, being fed, behind, and doing okay... If you're that far ahead and having that much trouble with the MORDE, you need to work on your approach.
