this rework is atrocious, good Lord, there's no way this R winds up as a fair spell and there's no way he doesn't immediately become a massive pick or ban monster in pro.

n2mention his permanent unconditional on hit damage -- weren't we trying to reduce stat checking? Youve made Mord an even bigger one.

Sucks because I was hoping this rework would change my mind, but now I'm 100% that none of the new devs make good content. I would rather Volibear stay powercreeped into near irrelevance than get turned into one of these clownish abominations. The only way Mord will be remotely fair with this is if he retains the absolutely abysmal base stats that are completely ubfitting for the class he's supposed to represent. Even then that might not be enough.

Yeah morde got butchered which is unfortunate, they turned an unique champ into another average, generic camille esque kit that is going to be more or less impossible to balance (while pretty much completely removing the old morde champ from the game), how could they think removing his ult ghost enslave? Thats literally mordekaiser aside from iron man, its the only thing that has stayed on his kit since release no matter the buffs/nerfs he got, not to mention it thematically makes 0 sense, when i think about a fair 1v1 without interuptions i would think about xin zhao or fiora, not fking mordekaiser.

But hey, now he has another generic aoe hard CC like every other new release! So cool! Yawn.

But honestly i was expecting that, its what they do and have been doing with reworks, basically deleting champs and replacing them with something else with the same name.

I wouldnt be surprised if they were to rework volibear they just turned him into a squishy lightning mage or something at this point lmao.

Literally only do this anymore with the least possible, copypasted effort for Chinese eSports

Hey guys remember Beatrice and the old man?

Why? you dont want him to have Garen's Q Chogath E Maokai R and then some his current E and some passive that just adds free damage under a "condition" and is some really bland mechanic like "AA does bonus true damage after hitting a target with an ability"? :)

What?

Just guessing based on the trends theyve set. "what if we made this champion, instead of a better version of itself, 4 random ideas most of which are something we dont even have to code because it already has been!"

there's no way this R winds up as a fair spell and there's no way he doesn't immediately become a massive pick or ban monster in pro.

Thats exactly what they want. Make pro play oriented monsters, keep churning out Aatrox's and Camilles and appeal to china while never doing any actual work on any of the 130 some odd other champions because theyre "caught up working on getting X into a playable state" for a year and a half. And then wonder why they have yet another 43% winrate champion who "cant be balanced for solo Q and pro play at the same time", clearly it cant be because you tailored the ultimate around coordinated team play for some god forsaken reason
