So the Morde’s updated Lore has came out and I would like to know how strong is Mordekaiser compared to the Ascended, Darkins, aspects(Zoe, Panth), and Demi-gods (Ornn and Volibear)?

Well he’s basically a god of death.

he has the ability to take beings to the death realm so id assume he is pretty damn op

anything that deals in death has the potential to be above gods and ascended beings as everything can die

We don't really know, but it's heavily suggested that Swain's current main objective is to prepare the world for Mordekaiser's return by uniting it under the banner of Noxus. Since Swain is a man of reason and has gathered a lot of knowledge, he probably estimates Mordekaiser's strength to be somewhere between all of current Noxus and Valoran, Shurima, and Ionia combined.

We will have to wait for the rest of hi lore when he hits live servers

Physically, he's at least strong enough to use that giant mace. So at least on par with the other characters who use giant weapons like Darius or Garen. In his story a standard knight is able to take a hit, so he's not extraordinarily strong. But he's also got the benefit of being partially immune to physical damage since he doesn't have flesh. Though since he is made of iron when we know their world is advanced enough for steel, he's probably weak to especially strong blunt force and explosives.

In regards to his magic, he doesn't actually destroy much. What he does certainly requires powerful magic... but not necessarily destructive magic. And in his story, the offensive magic he tries to use gets completely dispelled by Demacian steel. And we can assume it doesn't just negate all magic, since Noxus just flat out wouldn't use mages if they weren't effective.

I think it's safe to assume most of his strength comes from his necromancy. And while that isn't something to just shrug off, he isn't especially impressive solo.

I'd say he's reasonably stronger, being just as immortal-if not more- than them. Morde could probably pull any of them to his world and kill them, keeping them dead. Although it all probably depends on how the death realm interacts with each of their 'immortalities'

Too strong.

I think he himself is powerful but his threat doesn't necessarily come through in a one v one duel for the ages type of strength. He would probably lose to Ascended and Darkin 1v1 his "threat level" comes mostly from the fact that once he comes back he will raise another army and subjugate the living for eternity because he cannot truly die.

So maybe on the Level of the tier 1 Aspects (Pantheon), but stronger thanDiana Leona Taric

As strong as he needs to be to justify his busted gameplay
