How will Morde be expected to build?
Assuming you're ever allowed to play Morde bot lane or at all anymore, how are they expecting you to build?
As an fyi his new stats:
General Recommended Items updated Base Stats (Nerf) MS 340 >>> 330 (Nerf) HP 555 >>> 525 (Buff) HP/lvl 73 >>> 80 (Buff) AD/lvl 3.5 >>> 5 (Buff) AS/lvl 2.6 >>> 3 (Buff) HP5 3.3 >>> 4 (Buff) HP5/lvl 0.3 >>> 0.55 (Buff) Range 125 >>> 200 Attack frame improved Armor/lvl 2.7 >>> 3.0 Attack Frame improved, but no longer scales as well with Attack Speed (Attack Frame should feel more consistent across game time) Passive: Shield decay per second now 2% of base hp (up from 3% max shield) Shield no longer decays below 25% Max shield from per level to 25% of max HP Shield generation is now 25% of damage dealt, from 35% Q: Now buffs Mordekaisers next 3 attacks. Each does 3x the last (e.g., if the first hit deals 100 damage, the third deals 900). W: Reworked New passive: Mordekaiser receives full experience from any lane minion he kills New active -- Harvesters of Sorrow: Mordekaiser and target ally champion gain 75 MS while moving toward one another. When close to one another, both deal magic damage to nearby enemies over 4 seconds. Ability can be reactivated to instantly deal ~40% of the total DoT and heal Mordekaiser and his ally for the damage dealt (heal takes 3 units maximum; 33% heal to minions) Health cost removed. E: Base damage reduced from 70/115/160/205/250 >>> 35/65/95/125/155 Now also scales with 0.6 total AD Cooldown from 6 >>>> 6/5.75/5.5/5.25/5 Now grants 15% of maximum shield on champion hits R: Added: Passive -- Dragon Force: Dealing damage to the Dragon curses it. If Mordekaiser’s team kills a cursed target, Mordekaiser gets a ghost of that target. Planned: Ghost scaling cleaned up [This is not yet on PBE]"
Sooo he's slower, less tanky early, they buffed his AD and AS and Range, gave his Q a 3 hit mechanic, and lowered his E base but added an AD ratio.
Is Riot really going crazy? They're pushing a meta breaker champ AND it almost seems like they're trying to make a hybrid champ out of him...
