Mordekaiser (Mid) Turbo guide
New year, new me. Or in league terms; The start of a new season.
With season six drawing to a close and a lot of people just waiting to jump into some ranked games I thought it was time to give those interested in playing Mordekaiser some tips.
So, why should you play Mordekaiser? Apart from being a total badass who enslaves his enemies and being a walking, talking Metal reference? If you're not already sold let me tell you why picking Mordekaiser could help you and your team win!
-Carry potential Mordekaiser is one of those champs who can singlehandedly carry a game He's a recipe of disaster seeing that he's both DURABLE and provides a lot of DAMAGE. And we all know everyone likes double D's
-Can provide a way to bolster up your existing frontline Mordekaiser works extremely well with tanky engagers and divers, being able to provide everything they want form a midlaner with Rylais slows, more bulk to add to their mass, heals with his W and very strong damage for evaporating cc'd enemies
-Great counter pick Mordekaiser can be a very strong counter to a variety of champions due to being hard to kill and being able to negate aggression He counters assassins like Zed, Ekko and Yasuo to some extend Works well against Battlemages and mid-ranged casters Is a great counter to burst characters And out pushes almost any champion
-Benefits strategic thinking Dragons? They become even more important, allowing you to push down towers like they're nothing
Enemy is fed? Make them serve YOU
Runes? http://www2.pic-upload.de/img/32242528/ironman.jpg Those are the runes I like to run but you can swap out the blues for MR if you so desire and maybe add some armor into AD heavy matchups
With the Rylais changes the MS quints will be even more important.

Srs helps getting kited and has great Synergy with Morde's kit The Ferocity and Cunning tree also give him very strong combat benefits
Items?
My usual core build consists of the following items
/
The flat pen in particular makes you deal TRUE damage to squishies due to you amassing over 40 FLAT penetration
Rylais and Liandries have great Synergy and provide very strong damage as well as the % shred to help against squishies and tanks alike due to your ultimate constantly reapplying the burn
Steraks is overall a strong defensive option that also synergizes well with Morde's base AD Adds a fair amount of damage
The most damage you can get with one item.
It provides a lot of damage as well as giving a long range slow and 250 damage burst
Has great synergy with SV if you do pick it up
Other viable choices are:

Max order W: Provides a lot of lane presence due to the strong wave clear, damage and potential 380+0.6AP heal v Q: You want to max this by mid game for hard hitting Q damage v E: You don't get an awful lot from maxing your Siphon so better max it last
For summoner spells try running

If you do master Mordekaiser you've got yourself a very strong champion who can easily solo carry if you play your card right! Any more questions? Feel free to just ask!
). And what about long range poke such as velkoz, ahri, and xerath? thanks
