Q goes off, goes on CD, doesn't deal damage or heal. If Crimson Rush was up, you're now at 0/3 stacks instead of 1/3. I habitually ward anything denying me vision immediately, even if its just for .000001 seconds, because of this bug.
Cool.
W goes off, in pool, still gets hit by targeted ability.
Cool.
E can't hit anything with even slightly higher MS than you and a functioning brain if there's any enemy unit within ~400 range of you because of how wonky the new fat hitboxes are.
Cool.
R pops, heal heading your way, die anyway before it hits you even though you managed to live 4 seconds under heavy fire, something most tanks would be happy about these days.
Cool.
aspects12 votesits 2 not 3 for q
WoonStruck1 votesIts 3. You have to Q 3 times to use Crimson Rush on someone.
0 stacks->1. 1->2. 2->CR. That's 3 casts. If you use CR, you Q twice for the next. If you don't, you Q 3 times to use the next proc.
Deity Excalibur1 votesits 2 not 3 for q
Technically you only have to cast Q 2 times to possess crimson Rush. Then you can Q a third time to make use of it or it will fade. So basically, 2 casts for the passive, 1 cast to make use of it, hence the 3 Q casts.

Placing a keg out of range will occasionally place an invisible powder keg right on top of GP, that will detonate if GP detonates a keg, even if it's not connected. Don't ask me why the fuck that happens.
If Gangplank dies while casting Cannon Barrage, the ability will show it's not on cooldown, but won't cast if you try to after you respawn.
Sometimes Powder keg will keep showing the circle indicator endlesly (The ''tick down'' indicator)
Using Remove scurvy while in the air will occasionally keep GP stuck in the air.
Cannon Barrage updates wil occasionally refuse to be bought. You'll hear the ''buy'' sound but nothing happens.
Placing a Keg on Dragon will knock the keg away, but the explosion will still happen on the original casting spot.
Placing a keg occasionally doesn't actually place a keg, but the stack will be consumed.

Powder keg?
More like powder kek.
YoungFarmer11 votesMalicious should be challenjour but the bugs R 2 Strong. Riot your leaving the poor man stuck in PLAT you animals!
Almighty11 votesDear Malicious Metal
You are honestly the only reason i remember Mordekaiser still exists.
Let's face it. He is the new Yorick/Pre-rework Poppy. We never see him in the Free champion rotation. We never see his skins on sale. The last skin he got was the Golden Pimp lord skin. Not to mention that he still has 100+ unfixed bugs about him. Even Azir is jealous.
Riot know Mordekaiser's "rework" was a disaster. They know his kit, model, voiceover are outdated. They know Mordekaiser needs to be reconstructed from the ground up! But for now, they just swept him under the rug.
All we can do is wait for Riot to remember Mordekaiser exists. And hopefully, he will get his deserved real rework after Warwick is completed.
Almighty.
Kingnewgameplus2 votesHonestly as somebody who played him a decent chunk pre-rework I wouldn't mind if they reverted it at this point. Personally he was a hell of a lot more fun back then, and I even miss his stupid E animation where metal bowling pins showed up under the enemy and chuncked them.
Malicious Metal3 votesAh yes, the oh so dreaded Mace to the Balls crunch every top laner was haunted by back in the day.
Seriously though, a ranged 250 base damage AoE spell that has a measly 5 second CD was not fun to play against :/
NightWind421 votesOr play 3v3. You are from EU, so you are concerned by it. Mordekaiser is extremely good in duolanes in 3v3, and in EU (EUW and EUNE, both regions use duolanes), he is really contested in high elo.
Just something to underline my point: http://prnt.sc/dqm6hk What matters here isn't the score I had. It's that I got S and not S+, while the grades are based on the average done by the champion.
Doctor Ivellius6 votesPlayed Morde jungle the other night. Flash Qed to kill a Vayne. It did no damage. :(
Papa Andrei1 votesThat is just a Vayne "feature"
Mira Arya Enthe1 votesHow do you feel about all the CotC junglers and hyper jungler tanks that get tankier, do more damage, have more CC and more mobility. While being 3 levels ahead because jungle?
Malicious Metal2 votesIt's a Jungle problem, not a CoTC imho.
The spawn rates of jungle creeps is down, the experience is up. Strong clearing Junglers are always ahead and have all the time left on ganking because of the long respawn timers.
They need to change this XP/camp spawn dynamic.
Mira Arya Enthe1 votesWell I agree there. I was more saying CotC junglers and hyper jungler tanks to clarify who I meant. Yes, the exp needs to be cut down a ton, the gold maybe a tad.
Malicious Metal1 votesThe problem is the same with redemption.
"supports feeling impactful" and Jungler's "always being under-levelled and gold-starved" are what Riot tried to fix but it's grossly in the other extreme that it feels opressive.
They just need to flatten these things out more. As things currently stand you either pick one of the chosen Junglers (Vi, Lee, Rengar, etc.) or face a bitter defeat.
Hell, my Skarner's become pretty much obsolete.
Mira Arya Enthe2 votesPeople seem to think I only jungle Shyvana. But I also play jungle as Quinn(no longer works for me), Sej and Amumu. Basically out of those Shy is only viable and Sej is a desperate pick if team lacks CC. Because otherwise Amumu and Quinn are in a sad state jungle.
I also play essentially all other roles, I was just best at jungle. At this point I gave it up because I hate playing OP things. I enjoy a challenge.
Malicious Metal1 votesThat's why I stick with Morde.
No matter how bad he is and what people may think of him they'd sure have a change of heart when I march down mid with my Dragon clone, the only reasonable thing for them to do being to cower in fear and surrender.
Or.... Me just dying to a level 3 gank and proceeding to have my shiny metal ass whooped by the enemy Jungler.
Both sound like reasonable outcomes.
General Esdeath 1 votesI don't get it. Did I miss something?
Sahn Uzal21 votesThere currently are over 200 documented Mordekaiser bugs.
Marshbouy2 votesfirst it was 160. then it was 200 now it's 200+ ????
Sahn Uzal3 votesWas it a round 200? That might be my bad.
Malicious Metal19 votesThe exact number is a bit over 170 iirc.
General Esdeath 1 votesWait where is the list? I didn't hear about this at all.
NightWind421 votesThe post is a bit long, though... it is exactly on the size limit of Reddit.
General Esdeath 1 votesThanks fam
NightWind421 votesThe exact number was 165 when I made the post, it's now 168 after a few things I forgot ;)
Marshbouy9 votesthere was a red post documenting 161 bugs (with a lot of them being very minor like "draven ghost does not have a passive counter". Then it was inflated to "almost 200 bugs". Now it's 200 bugs. in a week or two its going to be 300.
Melledoneus9 votes"Mordekaiser has OVER NINE THOUSAND bugs!" "Nein sousand? Vat?!? Zat is undpossible!"
NightWind421 votesIt's called inflation!
But actually, no. The post read 165 and is now at 168 (it's not a red post, by the way), and the 200 is just a made-up number. Though who knows, maybe someday :p
Quite a lot of these bugs are indeed minor since pretty much every single ghost interaction has been tested. However, some of them are actually major, like the dragon ghost refusing to listen to you for 10 straight seconds (Toothless.exe stopped responding), or the W randomly not hitting opponents... the latter happening in about 70% of the cases.

There currently are over 200 documented Mordekaiser bugs.
and hes currently playable in ranked? hmm 200 bugs and not one thats exploitable?
Ahristocats1 votesthere is one concerning jhin
he has infinity bullet, and if he dies during 4th shot, his 4th shot bonus crit and % missing hp will be on all his auto attacks, additionally all jhin attacks will have rapid fire canon bonus range
the problem is that he doesn't get bonus movement speed
UkeNeverSeme1 votesAre you for real? holy shit... That is such a ridiculous bug it doesn't even sound fun xD
NightWind421 votesAnd another one about Shaco, whose ghost can be permanently invisible. However, that requires Shaco to ult right as he would die from the ult, and maybe to also be stealthed at that time.
About Jhin: You have to be careful about it. If you stay out of combat for 10s, Jhin will reload and lose that passive fourth shot. But it remains very good... especially now that people play him AD/crit again, instead of arpen ;)
Another one is that when Udyr dies, the ghost will always be in bear stance, regardless of the spell he was using right before dying.
Rebonack1 votesPretty much completely off topic, but I noticed recently that Mord's walk cycle is totally in sync with Metal Man's theme from Mega Man Two.
Malicious Metal4 votesWell, that's because Morde used to be Metal Man, he got fired and found a job at Riot.
The pay is shitty and insurance sucks but you gotta put some food on the table for all your Children of the Grave.
