Morde's W Question...
Just out of curiosity...why did the magnet effect get added to it? It seems a bit...pointless honestly. Like it was wasted power added for no reason. I would have rather him got some form of mobility or cc over...that.

Likely in a need for mobility, they gave it to him.
Because somewhere along the line, they forgot he is actually a king among torment and diseases who simply happens to be able to manipulate metal and steels to cause pain for his pleasure.
His title is simply a nod to his general theme being heavy metal musics instead of you know, actual Magneto who Riot is now confusing him with.
Morde may need some mobility or cc, but his W's implementation is just not a good insertion both on gameplay and thematic aspect of Mordekaiser.
Gameplay wise, it's too situational and it's just generally useless for the most part, the damage while nerfed it doesn't even double when enemies stand in overlapping W's, which makes 0 sense.
Then theme-wise, Morde is never a man of sharing either he has it or he lets you borrow it, nor is he proficient and specialises in metal or magnetic manipulation, it's simply a means to an end, causing pains and sufferings.
The reasonings behind his W change is awful, well at least it ain't as bad as his R change.
