Mordekaiser Change Idea

First, i don't think he necessarily needs a change but i thought of this and thought i'd post it because it's just one problem i have with him that's a little annoying.(I don't have any other problems with him.)

Mordekaiser's R is very annoying for champions that aren't good at fighting him, such as Mages or the Squishier less-mobile ADC's, it's nearly a death sentence and even if Mordekaiser is behind he can still just press R on you to remove you, a Carry from a fight. This annoy's me because i play primarily mages and while it's not necessarily hard to run away from him, it's the fact that if we're even or he's ahead i basically have no choice but to run or die that's the most annoying.

This reminded me of when Illaoi had her E that lasted 30+ Seconds, and if i remember correctly you couldn't lower the Duration by attacking her, so needless to say it was super oppressive to have to run away from tentacles for 30+ seconds while illaoi's voice lines play in the background.

What i'm getting at here is that i think it would be Appropriate to introduce a mechanic to Mordekaiser's R that makes fighting a viable option to Carry's. As it stands being forced to hopelessly Kite away from a champion who's R is a built in lock-down stat-check is annoying, and Fighting isn't a viable option to champions that can't outright tank him, but what if the duration of the ability decreased by a certain amount after each attack?

Not saying it NEEDS to be done, but it would be very nice and probably help remove some frustration around him.

Woah man thats crazy dude a champion whos a juggernaut who excels in 1v1 fights and only has one vital weakness which is getting to his opponents, is actually good once he gets in melee range! thats crazy man. Real crazy. God I hate ranged top lane players actually the worse type of people in the world. Literally playing with training wheels and STILL complaining about the game.

darius and garen have even worse problems reaching people and yet thier ultimate is not as crazy as morde's , nor do they gain as much shields as he does. im a melee player myself and im saying it the way that R works cage + AP + movement speed to not get away from, is a really stupid concept made by riot to bring a new concept into the game but totally ruining the game.

Mordekaisers ability to kill you in his ultimate still relies completely on being able to hit both his skill shots, unless he's fed and can just walk up to you and auto you three times to proc his passive he has no real way to kill you.

you say it as if with darius or garen is just different. again. yet they dont cage you and get AP OR AD + movement speed inside that cage. of for hitting both skillshots i think his 2 q's are enough to kill you. and he definitly has the speed to reach for them. and to loose the q with that big of a hitbox it takes alot of sidesteping with luck involved. once you are in you barely ever make it alive from there.
