Isn't Mordekaiser quite literally just a stat check? You know... the thing everyone HATES and blabs on about never being balanced? So uh, are stat checks cool with the community now?

you dodge his abilities, you delay his passive, you probably beat him in a fight.

doesnt seem too stat check to me.

Especially since you can dodge his E very easy. Unless he Ults you, he has a hard time chasing/engaging on you.

depends on your champion and size of the hitbox. but yes, in principle you can.

also item 3152 item 3116 makes his e insanely easy to land on any champion without mobility. you just hit the active for the aoe slow infront of you and then follow up with the pull.

DrMundo isn't a stat check because you can dodge his Q and kite him

I was going to put this example as well, but it seems like people have already made up their minds on this issue lmfao. I'm not even surprised about this response, everyone's having fun on mordekaiser when you can lock someone down and sit on them until they die because they can't breach past your insane armor, hp and shield.

They hated MoodyP because he told them the truth weeks ago

He's a juggernaut? Like, he does the same thing Darius does. Does his passive probably need a nerf? Maybe.

Ahhh, so it's selective stat checkers that we need to look out for, gotcha ;)

He is immobile and skillshot based, meaning you can at least kite him and kill him through range and CC. Stat checks are really only an issue with someone like prework aatrox who had mobility, movespeed, high AA damage, healing on autos and everything like that.

Mundo isn't a stat check champ by that definition

Darkdemon653Jun 12, 20191 votes

Yes, "stat checks" are fine.

he's interactive and fun. way different than... for example old aatrox who was not interactive and not fun.

E forces fights. Q punishes solo fighters. W forces disengages. R forces each player to consider their ability to stand alone as well as with a team.

consider mundo and then consider the new morde.

Havnt played much games with/against him yet, but after few, my mind is screaming "OP, spam that shit in ranked" so idk, we have to give it some time I guess.
