Dear League Of Legends and Legue Of Legends players,
I'm making this form so that we can get a nerf on Mordekaiser. We all know who Morde is and how OP he is. I think with the new items that he is too good, especially on Twisted Treeline. BlackFire Torch makes it GG if they have a Morde on their team. He E's then ulti and you are practicly dead. You can't kill him unless you 1v3 him, and even then one of your teamates will die. He has too much cooldown and too much sustain. His one move and his sheild is at 50%. Add that with the spell vamp and boom, he's at full health. Thanks for reading this and comment below!

Morde is actually considered quite underpowered at the moment and has pretty much never seen competitive play and probably never will due to the problems into his kit:

- He has an extremely weak 1-5 because all his spells cost health. He cannot reasonably trade with anyone.
- He has no mobility, no gap closer or escape. He has no way to survive ganks in lane.
- He is forced to push his lane if he wants to harass or trade, making him very open to ganks. Coupled with his lack of escape, he's extremely easy to shut down
- He has no CC or utility. He is pure damage. This is why he does so much damage, because that's all he does.
- He has no sustain outside of his ultimate, making Hextech Revolver a required item on him and limitting his laning ability severely pre-revolver.

If his E + R is killing you, it sounds like 1) he's already fed or 2) you have no health or magic resist built. Either case, it is your fault - not Morde being overpowered.

No champion is balanced around Twisted Treeline or Dominion, so I won't bother addressing those points. All balance is done with 5v5 in mind.

A recommendation: If you're having difficulty dealing with a particular champ, try buying that champ and playing them. Study what the opponents are doing to counter your tactics and it will give you great insight into what you can do when you're playing against that champ.

Exactly as Hidden Dragon has said, Morde is just a damage powerhouse and that is it. No CC, no mobility, he has nothing. Mordekaiser is a damn joke in lane before he gets any sustain. His only means of going through a teamfight is his shield which he cannot power if he is CC'd. One stun will end him because without being able to use abilities he can't sustain and outside of that he is quite squishy, any AD will tear through his health. He is not OP in any regard. His kit actually lacks an extremely large amount of things other AP carries have, and those other AP Carries still do very comparable damage. Morde's kit is very basic and dated.
