So many Ranked games i have gone in. and when i already have Mordekaiser locked in and said ADC. someone doesnt read chat and say "Oh i must be adc" Dont people read the news? The Juggernaut rework was pretty Huge too.

So i have to Work my ass off to make Mordekaiser work in a solo lane. when me and my duo could easily use our Synergy to win bot lane. idk i know this is a rant but how do people not know that Mord is a Duo laner now O_o.

And alot of Morde fans are pissed as hell about them turning the solo lane dominater that was old Morde into an AD carry replacement...

If they tried these gimicks on a new champion. Nobody would really be annoyed. But completely ruining a champions identity that has been cemented into the game for YEARS simply because they want to test a new thing out is just dumb.

They should have just made a new champion if they wanted to experiment with a duo lane fighter type hero.

Well he is a Duo laner now and in ANY game there is bound to be change. its not like we PAY to keep champions the same. Its the same champion, just with afew changes to his abilities. I still dont see much of a difference.

Why didnt you force the ADC to go Top while you went Duo Bot? Mordekaiser is not an ADC. He is a Duo-laner.

Because some AD carries just flat out can't solo lane. Some just don't have the tools to 1v1 any lane matchup, or their range isn't anything useful against a top laner with any form of gap closer.

Really, try sending someone like Jinx top against a Riven and then say it was a smart idea. Hint: Riven will most likely get fed in that matchup

Only AD carries that can reliably solo lane, are ones with insane range like Varus, or have reliable escape options like Ezreal.

On the other hand, Solo Mordekaiser is literally worse than any Solo ADC.

We did in one game, only problem was enemy Top took advantage of them not having Teleport and payed many visits to Dragon and bot. if they had picked a normal top laner with Teleport then Wouldve been Cake to bake. Eh. Also i understand he isnt an adc. Did i accidentally put it in the notes? i changed the Title for this very reason!!! Damnit!

Good point. Even if you somehow convince an ADC player to go top or mid, he is far more likely to just take Heal instead of TP ''FOR THE META''.

Getting a good team composition while taking Mord bot is so much harder than it should be due to mentality.

(Edit) I see that i said i called Adc. but what are we supposed to call him? i use adc to let them know that i am filling in for that role for the game. (Sorry for the Confusion)

I've been playing full AP Morde as a support. Have my ADC wander into the minions to heal them up and other than that do typical Morde stuff.

Hey, if it works then i applaud you man. But im trying to get across that Morde is going to be seen bot lane alot. so people should get used to the idea of Adc (in adc i mean filling the role an adc would be in" Morde
