Why Mordekaiser SHOULDN'T be AD.

Vartius·8/15/2017, 7:44:51 PM·14 votes·2,325 views

You often see posts on how Mordekaiser after his VGU should be ad, as it fits his thematics more... But people misunderstand Mordekaiser and WHY is he as terryfing as he is. Mordekaiser doesn't bring terror, because he is a big dude that hits hard with a big weapon... Nor because he is a powerful necromancer who casts horryfing spells...

But because he is both.

Mordekaiser is the bad guy of the league. He is the Overlord. Undead warlord who cannot be stopped (for long) or killed. He is one of the most dangerous forces on runeterra. And the thing about him is that he isn't powerful in one type of combat. You can send a warrior after him, but the warrior will fall before his strength... You can send a mage, but he too shall be overpowered by Mordekaiser's dark arts.

Mordekaiser is a warrior... Mordekaiser is a mage... and Mordekaiser is a strategist, leader and a cunning tyrant. These thing are what makes him as big of a threat to the world as he is.

Riot needs to improve hybrid champs and builds, not make everything AD or AP. It's fun trying to outsmart and outbuild enemies in any meta.

Not only was he a powerful dark sorcerer in life who used magic to enslave the souls of his enemies, at this point he is literally an undead spirit kept "alive" through a necromantic ritual that binds him to his armor. A ritual that is conducted by several undead liches of his own creation.

So yeah I'm damn well expecting him to be at least hybrid, leaning more towards AP if anything.

I wouldn't call him the bad guy of league. There are many who rival or completely stomp Morde like A Sol, what laughed at A Sol, etc.
