How to play Mordekaiser by a Vladimir main, feat. a Mordekaiser main.

Hi everyone!

If you've clicked on this thread, it's because for some inexplicable reason you want to learn how to play Mordekaiser from a Vladimir main. Using the information I've gained from watching my good friend and arch-nemesis Malicious Metal, I will help you learn how to play Mordekaiser!

The first thing about maining, or even casually playing Mordekaiser, has nothing to do with actually playing Mordekaiser. You must change your name to something related to Mordekaiser, as Malicious Metal, Maximum Morde, Mordepool, and many other Mordekaiser mains have done so. This is in order to intimidate your opponent the moment you enter the loading screen, as they will see you main a Champion that Riot has abandoned, and will become so flabbergasted that someone mains that Champion at all, and forget how to lane entirely, giving you free kills to snowball.

The second thing to do when playing Mordekaiser, also has very little to do with playing Mordekaiser. You must go on the Boards/Reddit/Tinder, and spam posts about Mordekaisers balance. The more times you make several threads saying basically the same thing, the better. Insist that Mordekaiser is a terrible Champion, buggier than a Bethesda game on release, is severely underpowered and desperately in need of his VGU/buffs, all the while stomping games into oblivion and forcing 20 minute surrenders.

Contrary to what most think, Mordekaiser has some CC. Constant Complaining. Sadly, this CC only affects people who have the terrible MissFortune to be in voice chat with you. Possibly my favourite complaint is that a Malphite with Frozen Heart can E Mordekaiser and reduce his attack speed to such pitiful levels that the Q buff runs out before Morde can get the third Q off.

Thirdly, once more, is not about playing Mordekaiser. Rather, it's what happens when you play other Champions. Almost as much as I've heard the Triple-Barrel Combo (Screaming-Sighing-"Casttimes") from Tidal Tyrant, I've also heard the forlorn, lone cry of "I would have won this lane so easily if I was Morde", from Malicious's svelt voice in my ear.

It's a good thing Malicious is Italian, because I'm never spaghetting over that game.

When you're playing Mordekaiser, you must come to terms with the fact that at least one person in the lane is having zero fun. If you already main top lane, you already understand this and can skip this step. However, if you decide for some reason decide to take Mordekaiser bot lane, ask your support to take a tank. Blitzcrank Thresh Alistar Nautilus are excellent choices. Playing bot lane also allows you to get quick dragons once you've inevitably won your lane with your fair and balanced interaction pattern, which allows you to further push your lane. At least 80% of the time, getting a Dragonforce Dragon allows you to get a free tower. However, this does not apply to Elder Drake.

Elder Drake grants you victory, regardless of what happened for the rest of the game.

Now of course, if anyone has read my first thread of this nature - http://boards.na.leagueoflegends.com/en/c/memes/Ak9ANapd-how-to-play-gangplank-by-a-vladimir-main-feat-a-gangplank-main you - they'll know that the most important part of playing any Champion is making puns - trust me I'm a Vladimir main. Here are some examples:

"Your Seoul is mine." - Killing a Korean player. "Your Sole is mine" - Killing a Nami or a Fizz. "Mordkekaiser." - Any time. "Mordekaiser goes to the beach, there are no waves." - Any time. "Come on, let's not be dragon this game out." - Getting first drake and pushing several towers before it dies. "Come on, let's be dragon this game out." - Losing heavily and waiting for the Elder Dragon bullshit power-up. "I metal my friends at concerts." - Any time, preferably using Pentakill Mordekaiser. "Whoever did Mordekaiser during the juggernaut update CertainlyT is a great designer and there is no sarcasm whatsoever in my comment at all." - Any time.

Finally, you must never back down from a fight. Nothing more to it.

Using the steps above, you too can play Mordekaiser!


Like with my Gangplank thread, I had Malicious's express permission to undertake this little exercise in making fun of him, and we're good friends outside of the game. Almost all of the above is exaggeration, and I have a deep respect for the man. I look forward to whatever revenge he takes upon me in turn.

Don't lie, we both know you want to play Morde yourself :^) He's a better Vlad after all.

Almost sounds like Vlad is the better Mordekaiser?

It's a shame they're both shit.

TheHurricaneGamr1 votes

They really are though. I've played a good bit of both (especially Vlad after his update). They both have very good thematics, but it simply does not pan out in game. And Vlad's update IMO, did very little to actually solve his gameplay issues, while also introducing new ones. If anything, he's actually worse off balance wise and game health wise than he was before the update. Mordekaiser is also very unhealthy, but in the defense of CertaintlyT (the guy who reworked Morde), he didn't have much to work with. Riot even openly admits that he needed a VGU rather than just a gameplay update (have you seen dem feet?).

Over Innsmouth2 votes

Vlad is way healthier post-update, there isnt even an argument about it. Most of his update was about cleaning up the unhealthy parts of his kit, and they succeeded. Tides of Blood has an actual cost and has decision making attached to it, Transfusion and Crimson Rush added layers of depth previously unfound in his kit, and the Haemoplague heals give him some of the best "second wind" moments in the game.

TheHurricaneGamr1 votes

So if he's better and supposedly more balance able, why does Riot insist on keeping him in the gutter?

Over Innsmouth1 votes

Because Riot hates Vladimir. Apparently when a Champion with a teamfight-based ult is using his ult to win teamfights, that's wrong and the Champion deserves to be guttered.

They fixed the tank builds post-MYMU by adjusting his values. The reason Vladimir is so bad right now is because Riot doesnt want people to pick him over flashier shit.

I know that feel. It feels so bad when a champion you put time into is no longer viableAzir item 3070

Just of curiosity i went on your Lolking and saw that you have 800k+ Mordekaiser mastery points.

And also, i can't wait to see the "1 million Mastery" thread. :)

Not a problem.

I think (?)

In fact,i DO want to be locked in a room with him. I DO want to rape him.

And yes,i like writing this way. It looks so tidy,i love it. I may rape this too.

BTW Gif not working. I'm not a memer so i don't know how to fix it.

It's not rape if I consent :^)

Well,if tides can't,i can. I just need Malicious to send me some kind of photo,or directly letting me know him,so i can know him better and make a realistic fanfic too.

We could also do a video,in the meantime. Of. Any. Kind.

Yup This guy checks out. Kept me guessing for a while but after reading the whole post (no I'm not lying). He verified his authenticity with this quote

Also thanks for the shout out

My pleasure. Although I'm ashamed to say I can't follow my own advice, I'm a terrible Mordekaiser player. Probably comes with being used to Vlad having a bitch-button on his W.

Weirdly though, I am an excellent Kled player.

I laughed when I read this post.

Us Morde mains know Morde is in bad shape, yet we still manage to play him and make him work.

He's not weak, just impossibly slow.

Maybe give MS passive on Q?

You also forgot this one:

Spam "Mordekiaser es numero uno" in the all chat.

Spam laugh in lane

Pull a Garen, hide in the bush, all in your enemy and spam laugh and mastery emote when they die

Spam "Mordekiaser es numero uno" wjen you get a kill

Complain Morde is too slow, needs buffs, yet is still numero uno
