How to play against a Mordekaiser

Hi I'm having quite a lot of trouble in bot lane against mordekaisers. Does anybody have any idea on how to combat against him when playing an adc? I hear people saying play passively or don't get in range of him but a lot of the time to even get an autoattack on short ranged adcs you're in range of his e which will destroy you regardless if you build armor or magic resist. It's hard not to fight him as he consistantly denies farm by spaming E on you whenever you get close to farm. You pretty much can't poke him as when he sees you coming to poke he will just q the wave and neglect all damage. Underneath the shield is pure tank.. I guess you could say the number one thing I'm having problems with is the E and Passive. Any suggestions? I like to play quinn and lucian so try to apply to them if possible :P

(Ranting, don't read if you don't want to) Why would RIOT go forward with these juggernaut reworks? It feels like the champions require less skill for more reward. In comparison to a champion like Fiora who actually requires timing and good aim, the champion rework for Mordekaiser is pretty much an anti-fun kit. You can't poke him, you can't kill him. Meanwhile you try to kill him you are dying because he does damage. He dosen't even need his w to be strong. It's this kind of spam-to-win kind of mentality I thought RIOT would try to get away from that and go for more interactive, harder to play champions to create a more fun enviroment but apparently they want to stick with spam idealistic champions to output. And before you call me out on it yes I'm butthurt because I can't win a single game against him ._.

You're being destroyed by his E which does almost no dmg?

my best advice, which i have found to moderately work, is to play a long ranged high harassment champion, like caitlyn or varus, and keep constant pressure on mordekaiser. he only gets the bonus exp on minions he kills himself, and he needs items badly or he falls behind because late game his base damage is very weak. you still have to play around his support, but if you can manage a harassment support like sona that also helps. if you never let him walk up to his range, he'll never hurt you.

Ban him. If that fails, /ff.
