@Meddler, instead of Morde buffs have you considered shifting some power around?

Now, we all know Mordekaiser is in this wonky spot where he's either Trash Metal or just extremely oppressive Power Metal. In my previous thread I showcased some of the design flaws Mordekaiser suffers from and explained why he's not in a spot to just get buffed.

So, what if instead of just adding power to him we'd simply shift around power and allocate it into parts of his kit that would make him more Enjoyable to play? Currently Mordekaiser suffers from either getting ahead and just snowballing the victory or just falling behind and being a liability to his team. For the Mordekaiser player this can be extremely frustrating as his success cases and failure have such a high discrepancy that he can feel rather awful to play as. Especially after the Rylais nerfs his glaring issues of sticking to people has become more pronounced seeing that the slow was halved and he's unable to outright force fights with the 40% slow, it made him quite a bit healthier at the cost of him having less success cases.

So, how about we'll make Mordekaiser less awful to play as in those 50% of the situations where Morde players can feel quite infuriated about not being able to stick?

Simple: How about we trim away extra power from his kit and relocate that power budget elsewhere? Some of the changes I'd like to see would be: -Removed/Lowered W speed boost -Needs to use his R cool down to get a dragon clone (half the base CD Though) -Removal of the XP passive

+Increased base MS (-75 Speed boost could mean about 10ish more base MS) +Increased base armor to make up for the loss of duo lane XP advantage?

Also, on the same topic, Mordekaiser currently has 76 DOCUMENTED bugs that can seriously hurt his performance. His W, arguably his most important skill, is riddled with bugs that can really screw him over at times. His Dragon and Clone AI's in particular are really unresponsive too and might need some adjustments as well.

Mind you, I'm not asking to give Mordekaiser Juggernaut base stats and outright buff him, I just want to FEEL good about playing him. Bugs, a lot of frustrating experiences after the Rylais nerfs, huge discrepancy between success and failure cases and more does really hurt the enjoyment I'd normally get from playing him and just fixing those few things until he finally get his well deserved VGU would mean the world to a lot of Mordekaiser players.

Tl;DR: Power shifts and Bug fixes, 'nuff said
