@Riot, whatever happened to "Enticing Mordekaiser into a duo lane"?

You just started to remove the things that made him consider going duo bot bit by bit. His heal's becoming way weaker, which is actually a good change but you removed the overlapping Mechanic of his harvester of sorrow, making it function like a bloody normal AoE damage field that's conditional as hell. Does that mean you're slowly starting to realize that you can't possibly balance him according to bot lane since it not only sucks the fun out of the game for the opposing duo laners but he has to be disgustingly broken to even go toe to toe with ranged carries. Shouldn't juggernauts be weak to ranged harass and getting kited by said champions? Besides, the way this whole Mordekaiser rework's progressing I get the feeling that it won't end well for the Master of Metal if you try to balance him according to his bot lane gimmick and NOT as a champion. Let people decide where to bloody play him and try making him less of a pain to deal with during laning phase, because let's be honest. His teamfighting and his skirmishes are NOT a problem. Heck, he's great in those situations and hella fun to play without being completely unfun to deal with.

He has so much potential to be the healthiest juggernaut since he completely fulfills the goal of a really slow, lumbering damage dealer, a real Heavy Metal Juggernaut. He's got so much damage and tankiness but suffers A lot from being kited/cc'ed even more so than the other juggernauts currently running rampart. If you decide to balance him as a champion he'll be able to roll bot, mid, top and maybe even jungle without having to be such a gimmicky duo laner who sucks the fun out of at LEAST two people. Not wanting to sound rude but you failed at compelling him to go bot by slowly reducing the benefits of being in a duo lane as well as making him go toe to toe with enemy carries WITHOUT relying on a gimmick and broken stats to succeed.
