Expectations and Mordekaiser
The Rework thus far has been controversial And caused very Polarized opinions from various groups in the Community. I don't speak for everyone but having spent 2 months solid on the Boards I have seen some general consensus.
What do the various groups want
Morde Mains: would like a Rework which allows for Mordekaiser to function as an Individual ( not as a gimmick) by utilizing all his abilities and having them all feel impactful (his E always feels weak and Shield drains to fast early game). The introduction of a Team benefiting kit ( without being team reliant to function)
What the existing bottom lane meta wants: DragonForce nerfed severely or removed W passive. Removed Possibly a complete gutting removing him from the game ( depending on who you ask)
What does Riot want: To establish Mordekaiser as a ADC achieve Balance and Move on as fast as Possible
What we know: change is coming to his W possibly full dmg for self cast.
Balancing expectations.
Given the various groups stances on where powershifts should happen My ideas are as follows please feel free to add your thoughts,Rage incoherently, or troll as you see fit
Q dmg nerf. Health cost raised
E base damage and ratios buffed health cost reduced. (20% shield gain per champion hit half as effective vs minions)
W passive removed. (Possibly open up More MS 335 would be ideal)
Dragon nerfed. (Takes 50% increased dmg at rank 1 children of the graves 25% @rank2 and standard dmg @ rank 3)
Bonus idea for more balancing levers: as a possible change to Siphon of destruction. Have the cone originate in Mordekaiser's fist and shot outwards gaining speed as the cone Moves. Which allows counterplay and a Balance lever ( can change the speed at your discretion) Almost like a riven ult. Almost
