Just looking at everybody complaining about the new Mordekaiser rework when I get the idea, maybe he could be played in a duo top lane? I mean double bruiser top is pretty hard to deal with. Imagine Morde Volibear top or something, it could work. So why not lay off until we see how this turns out?
Also post your ideas about the good things that might come about this change.

Why not just hand all the dragons to the enemy jungler then? Not to mention you won't be able to utilize the only actual buff Mord is getting, namely his ability to use dragon.
Duo bot is meta for a reason.
Good things to come out of this change? Uh....More people leaving Leauge and playing a different MOBA, so Riot finally gets their heads out of their asses? But that's about as likely as me getting a sugar frosted kiss from Sona, Ahri and Nidalee at the same time.
If your suggesting duo top in lieu of a Jungler, then your still not making the best use of His XP steroid. Not to mention you have other problems not having a Jungler.
Mord would not completely replace the ADC. Rather, the ADC would take a solo lane. Most likely mid lane due to the fact that it's the short lane. The only question is, what ADC would best serve in the mid lane? Caster ADC like Varus have already proven useful, As well as any ADC who scales with Levels more so than their counterparts.
I think the morde changes will open a lot of neat comps for bottom lane. Duo top would need a lot more organization because your jungler and mid would have to coordinate objective control and play rather passive. You would need someone like shaco to counter jungle and keep bot lane passive and someone like kat who can roam when needed.
Bot lane should have some neat comps open up with strong initiators making a kill lane possible. The exp gaps are also something to think about. For instance being level 2 when your opponents are level 1, being level 5 when they are level 3 and level 6 when they are level 4. This adds a lot of potential power for supports that don't need a lot of levels, but can aid morde in landing his damage during his power spikes.
I see a lot of scenarios opening as Morde builds shield on E, initiating with W to kill/bully the support out of lane, and then zoning the enemy carry. Once you've starved the support long enough the carry won't have anyone to protect at which point you direct you W initiations on the carry. This also forces more pressure on the jungle who has to peel a lane that is basically running at fully upgraded boots speed at level 1 . I see a lot of opening especially when you can basically ghost yourself and your teammate every 20 seconds using W.
Hybrid dps and scaling coming back into the picture also has me very happy. His best dps comes as a hybrid and with the right support he will be dueling and soloing baron with the best of them again. At the moment his ability to solo baron or duel top dueling champions (especially those using sated) has diminished. That may change.
But then the team wont have a jungler. Literally zero Dragon/Baron/Buff control.
