People all giddy because Riot listened and now Mord's title is "The Iron Revenant"

People are happy because Riot listened to their "feedback" and changed Mord's title away from "Lord of Death", and im like, that wasn't feedback, that was toxicity and complete outrage rather than constructive feedback lmao

Don't get me wrong, Iron Revenant sounds amazing but the way this change was brought about was done in a completely wrong way. Luckily Riot is already used to the toxic wailing of its fanbase

There were constructive criticisms and there were cries.

Saying that there was only either 1 of them wouldn't be too smart.

were you on these boards these past few days? Sure a non-rude mord post would appear every now and then (usually by malicious metal) but the rest were seriously toxic...

There is a difference between crying, being mad and being toxic. And swearing do not equal to toxicity.

Being toxic would require the person to make personal attacks or anything more severe than that, which I did not really see, at least not a lot, in the past few days. Most people are either just mad or weeping in sadness, then there are some logical threads.

This exactly.

I thought a majority of the discussions were pretty civil, especially compared to the Fiora fiasco

Welp, I personally think presenting your arguments in a civilized manner with constructive feedback usually helps bringing your point across without sounding like a jerk^^

Don't know why it can't stay as Master of Metal.

Kind of kills this song's lyrics.

"Master of Metal" implies a much heavier metal theme in Mordekaiser's kit than currently exists. Pre-rework Mordekaiser had a few abilities that played into the motif, but since then his particle effects are more death-based than metal based. Given that the title no longer really fits Mordekaiser, it makes sense that it'd have to change to something, and I think Riot found an elegant solution.

Besides, 6v4 totally still works. "Master of metal" is just now a more generic phrase to describe Morde by.

people in support of any kind know that they see a lot of toxic outcries. it's common in the field. and when you help them solve the issue, all of a sudden you're wonderful and they love you xD it's par for the course.

I gotta say, this time i saw a lot less toxicity about the fact in comparison to Fiora update.
