Mordekaiser is too oppressive right at the start from level 1 and scales really hard

Apart from the obvious, that ult that steals your stats and isolates you, his level 1 with a q start matches up on the strong side with most top laners, level 2 is a powerspike with arpen and grab and faster passive proc, level 3 gives him a shield.

A champ that scales so hard should not have such a strong early game.

I played poppy into morde and had a phage and null magic mantle. He had amp tome health crystal and boots. He turret dived me (he was 90% i was 75%) and i got turret stun with E, landed both hits of Q, ignited him, and used r for knockup, all under turret, and the guy escaped with about 10% hp after killing me (flashed away from turret)

His kit is fine his base stats need to all be reduced by like 15%

Did you just run away after the stun ended? Rule of thumb with Morde is if you wouldn't do it to Darius then don't try it on Morde thanks to the magic damage on autos.

Do you have a clip or something for this too? I'm a little surprised poppy of all people would die under turret to Morde thanks to her W passive, especially with a null magic mantle. Also you should be going for Adaptive vs Morde (which Null doesn't build into) because almost all of his damage is tied into a low CD Q and his passive.

Hahaha fucking what?

1300g makes Morde irrelevant.

Stop complaining about Juggernauts, they all suck if you have a brain

Morde is pretty beatable early with any averagely strong top laner being able to go toe-to-toe pre-6 and if you're hard losing you can just hard-rush QSS and negate a lot of his kill threat.

There is no reality where Morde dives poppy and survives if he gets stunned

Clip or it never happened. Because im having difficulties believing a poppy got tower dived, landed stun and r (and ofc her q), and morde flashed to safety after killing her.

The only thing that really needs changing on morde is the stat steal from his ultimate. It should be changed to he only steals the targets stats if he kills them in the death realm, he shouldn't get the stats straight away it leads to massive 1 sided fight.

His kit is designed to excel in 1v1 scenarios but thanks to the ultimate stat steal he becomes far too overbearing in the death realm to the point 1v1ing becomes almost impossible unless you're a head.

ill dig around for the clip. it is indeed what happened.

an nmm does build into adaptive. It builds into all mr items.

and just fyi, i was a pre rework morde main.
