Morde's home isn't really Bot
Rehtorical Question? Did his Rework have the desired affect of establishing him a home in bot lane.
What the data shows while giving a basis for my hypothesis isn't 100% reliable. Regardless an argument can be made that Mordekaiser's true home is Toplane and the Jungle.

I was researching my favorite Metallic Maestro on league of graphs and looking at the data presented I noticed some very obvious patterns emerge.
Mordekaiser per role per rank.
ADC role: the noticeable trend being the lower the elo the higher the winrate( which dips below 50% somewhere in Gold)
The obvious take away higher skilled teams can exploit his obvious weaknesses (no shocker there)
Support role: 45% in bronze and gold, dips down to 40% in silver. Platinum+ they have the thematically good sense not to play him.
Midlane: the trend show a peak of 42% in silver with a rather consistent poor performance of -40% across all elos.
The take away: this probably is his worst role overall perhaps should focus on other avenues.
Toplane: there is a definite upward trend as you climb elo. 44% in bronze and silver, 50% in Gold, 63% peak in platinum.
The take away it: not being a platinum player myself I can't speculate on meta factors. I can note the obvious inverse relationship between Toplane and ADC roles. But there are to many variables to form a conclusion.
Jungler: Of all the roles this one is the Most Consistent hovering around 53% across all elos (80% in Diamond+ with 0% pick rate a anomaly I believe)
So based upon Consistency across all elos. I will put forth that Mordekaiser is better suited to the Jungle. Suits the "too toxic for solo lane" mindset- Riot Suits the " he's More Toxic in a Duo Lane" Mindset - the Community
Should he be retweaked with this in mind?
This Question I leave for you Riot.
A red response would be greatly appreciated, although entirely unexpected.
Sincerely S1 Mordekaiser Main
