I want to know the context of the changes to morde.

First off, why a duo laner? He was great at waveclearing and dueling and with the changes to his e and q he can't do that very well anymore. But that's no reason to duo lane cuz those changes were only made so he had to.

Second, why can't he use creeping death alone? I know he wouldn't be able to use the exp passive or the dot damage but the active aoe lifesap would be useful to have when he's alone.

lastly. did he really need a pet dragon? And does it need to override champion ghosts and lock him out of ult? If he got a ghost of an adc it would be better for teamfights and sieging for him to keep that ghost rather than a dragon.

What i don't get is they made his Q a ramp up that takes 3 basic attacks. He used to have trouble getting even one of and now he has to stick to people long enough to get off 3? It doesn't even give him a range buff like it used too :/

With the latest pbe update they increased the range on his E by alot but it still does so little damage that the only reason to use it is for the shield gain per champs hit. if it did more damage it would be worthwhile for waveclear but it does less than half of it's old damage and just barely oneshot the melee minions at full build.

I'm both excited and scared for how riot handles the morde update, he's one of my favorite champs.
