Can Mundo get some hard cc?

Biggest problem with is that he doesn't do much in team fights. It's easy to just ignore him. Even if it's a short root or stun it'd help him out a lot. He's also pretty bad when behind and this would in corporate some utility into his kit and stand against other tanks in terms of relevance.

But the question is how? Any ideas? I had one that while his ult is active his cleavers stun instead for half a second... that might be op tho

Or perhaps any change would put him over the edge? Personally I think he's weak and unpopular but is that true?

Fuck no. He's has some pretty ridiculous base damage and is extremely difficult to kill. Giving him hard CC is a dumb idea.

Mundo IS NOT A TANK. HE IS A FIGHTER WHO JUST HAPPENS TO BE REALLY DURABLE.

He has the lowest win rate (42.6%) among top champions according to champion.gg

If he doesn't get a hard CC, give him more damage or more tankiness.

That's a tall order. Particularly because a) his Regen makes him Immovable in lane. b) his Regen is a big source of his Tankyness, which is unique to most tanks who would get poked out. c) His Regen hyperscales with Max Health. d) he has poke, that can easily help him CS and win trades, Even Against ranged opponents. and d) the longer he survives, the more damage he dishes out.

I don't see a way to buff him that won't make him Oppressive. The only thing I could think of is to ease his weakness against Grievous wounds, by say, Removing it on Ult cast. (and only once on ult cast.)

"I don't see a way to buff him that won't make him Oppressive. " Same argument can be made for any champ. I posted a suggestion below. The grievous wounds weakness would be even more oppressive as Ignite is intended to be a counter once every 5 minutes. I'd suggest making his ult cost no health so he's less likely to be affected by Morellonomicon's passive (which is a bit OP atm).

Give him small buffs. Just get his win rate to about 50% or just delete him from the game.

That has more to do with the meta. A lot of champions that like to go top currently are good against mundo. He needs a rework, not a flat buff.

Mundo is a gimmick entirely. He will most likely almost never die, but if he does then he is going to die a lot.

I find Mundo to do a crap ton of damage if you don't pay attention to him. And Mundo goes where he pleases, so it's not like your teams gonna stop him all the time.

I actually don't want Riot to do anything to Mundo. I love him the way he is and truth be told, he is a powerhouse in team fights. His cleavers have the potential to chunk, his ultimate keeps him in the thick of battle and his DoT and empowered basic attacks still allow him to push out a good amount of damage whilst still being tanky. Even without full build the purple menace is quite the nuisance in team fights and you'd be a fool to ignore a good one.

Mundo isn't an initiator tank like Nautilus .

He's more of a "Get glued to their carries face and never leave them alone" type tank. If the carries ignore a Mundo who is on them, they will die since his cleavers actually hurt like hell late game.

I want him to go where he pleases... I really like his current kit because it's incredibly fun. I'd like a small buff directed at diving opponents. Currently champion.gg has him ranked dead last in Win % of top laners in Platinum or higher (42.6% ) and has limited viability elsewhere.

Currently turrets deal 25% additional damage for consecutive attacks on the same champion topping out at 225% of base damage, perhaps Mundo could take (20% / 15% / 10%) additional damage for consecutive turret shots instead (at levels 1,9,16) still topping out at 225% of base damage.

This would definitely improve his lane phase and jungle ganks without making him significantly overpowered and would fit in with his character.

I think what Mundo really needs is a buff to Athene's Unholy Grail. The dominance of Morellonomicon is IMO single-handedly keeping him out of the meta.

Why exactly are you under the belief that a decently mobile, percent health damaging, rapidly regenerating tank should also have hard CC?

He is secretly CertainlyT and wants to remake Mundo. Don't buy his disguise.

Mundo's job is not CC.

When they buff him, it better be a FAT buff to his passive late game (make it ramp up from it's current value at 11 and 16) and add some delicious damage reduction to his W.
