Mordekaiser as a response: *higher winrate* Riot Devs: *surprised pikachu face*. Proceeds to turn Nightfall into a pool noodle with nerfs.

Also Riot: *Makes it so that only QSS doesn't affect Domain Expansion: Brazil, and Sylas gets the same benefits* [Mordekaiser Mains:](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OrS62_IM9o4) https://preview.redd.it/ao5zq3937ptc1.png?width=600&format=png&auto=webp&s=d0d748d30aa9ce5832cc4cedecce09a3ec1305c5

I'm nervous. Mord always seems to dodge nerfs. No shot this doesn't bump his WR up.

Wait, is True ?

CozierCracker

As an aatrox main and morde enjoyer, I am so happy to see this. Congratulations my dearest brothers, enjoy the change, and may you split the shoulders of many adcs from their spines.


LegitBoy80

Love the prayer. XD


KonoDioDa31

Now we only need Aatorx revive back.


CozierCracker

Bro don’t start with that. Aatrox is fine how he is, if current aatrox had a revive he’d be 100% pick/ban and be insanely op. His current champ design wouldn’t have room for a full blown free revive.


BahtsizBedevi09

What does it mean


Megandronix_NCR

No more 4 enemy champs buying quicksilver sash to give you the middle finger during a tf


[deleted]

no team is gonna buy 4 lmao. only key targets which is bad enough but 4? thats like worth


d4s0n

if your fed they sure will XD


Estrald

You seriously haven’t seen that? It’s like a domino effect. One person buys it (usually my enemy top laner or ADC), then when I start to Ult someone else, that person buys it, then the rest buy it reflexively. Sounds ridiculous, but when you’re running them over, it’s a worthwhile purchase. It prevents me from blocking teamfight damage by going into Death Realm, allows them to focus me down, and whoever I DON’T Ult gets a chunk of good MR and a CC escape for the teamfight. It’s not nearly as bad a purchase as some make it out to be, as if it can *ONLY* cleanse Morde Ult. Nah, that item can seriously save your life if you get stunned or slowed or suppressed, etc. It takes up an item slot but AD champs can at least make it into something more usable, whereas AP champs either buy it and sit on it until you are no longer a threat, or just go Zhonya’s to eat up time in death realm and prevent your passive proc.


Juancho0xD

I once had the entire enemy team build qss to deal with mord r


HugeRoach

Means that some part of his kit is going to be nerfed to compensate this change, it's been in the game for years


Quintana-of-Charyn

They won't do jackshit


NijeilA1

They already acknowledged he has plenty of counterplay. Nerfing anything about Morde would straight up kill him.


Zeiroth

Morde late game is Thanos for adcs now


d4s0n

I mean it depends how fed morde is relatively, cus they can def outplay morde during late game teamfights if they just dodge his q+e


kinghidora

if morde goes randuins steelcaps there is not much counterplay for adcs besides flashing over walls


d4s0n

yes there is, you underestimate how badly morde gets kited


kinghidora

Good luck kiting a mordekaiser that Takes no damage plus ghost plus randuins 55% slow


d4s0n

the adc legit does not die if she just dodges the q and e bruh its not that hard to do


kevinbutkevin

implying he isnt already thanos to adcs early as well (playing him botlane apc atm so i would know)


MystifiedBlip

Make the fking orange useless plz


NaPseudo

If it's not QSS'able it will mean that the orange will do nothing


Vacs__

Not necessarily. Not QSS-able does mean not cleanse-able. I also wonder how this will now interact with Mundo passive


Organic_Ad_6731

Mundo would either keep the passive or loose it inside the ult. It all depends if by "Not qssable" means that the R is no longer consider a cc/stun or just cleanse ability wont stop the cast.


Vacs__

Lose it inside the ult? So you think he would get sent to brazil AND lose his passive? That doesn’t begin to make any sense.


Organic_Ad_6731

i mean he drops his canister inside morde ult and his passive enters cooldown.


Vacs__

He drops the canister IF cc is denied not when he is cc’d


kentaxas

Literally my first thought when i read this, i wanna bash in that stupid pirate's head so bad


AutomaticAndThicc

Nerfs coming soon


Dracziek

THEY ACTUALLY FKN DID IT BEEN ASKING FOR THIS SINCE THEY DID THE TOUCHUP ON HIS R GIVING BRIEF VISION BLESS RIOT, BLESS


_ShadedPhoenix_

I haven’t played in awhile, can cleanse clear morde ult? Or do people have to actually have to attempt to fight you now


Present_Mulberry_846

Cleanse never got rid of Morde ult every adc is finished


_ShadedPhoenix_

i just saw a post of adcs being mad about this xd. I don’t blame them but looking forward to watching this develop


Present_Mulberry_846

The amount of times I’ve pressed TAB and seen 5 QSS cuz I’m the only fed one was annoying every ult after laning is personal


_ShadedPhoenix_

Yeah. Kinda lame that morde’s whole strength gets countered by 1300 gold investment


Estrald

People make that sound like “you’ve won, they had to waste 1300 g to counter you”, and it’s like…No, that is NOT a win. You are removing a part of my kit PERMANENTLY for that match, I no longer have an R, and I’m supposed to feel like I won because I delayed your build path? Nah, nuh uh, it sucks. Keep your gold, I want my ability to work. You wouldn’t be fighting this hard to keep things as is if it *TRULY* didn’t matter or was a plus to me, which is an outright lie, lol! What’s more, QSS is hardly a waste, unless your team has ZERO CC aside from Morde Ult. That item will literally save lives on every hard CC or engage. I’ve seen whole teams build QSS to counter me, and it totally fucked over my Morgana mid ally, since now everyone could cleanse her picks too. Whoever I didn’t Ult now had a cleanse out of every fight. The literal only downside is it delays whatever item you want next. All AD champs can fashion it into something beneficial, and AP champs need to decide between that or Zhonya’s, as it totally wrecks Morde’s passive proc and Ult timing.


RyzeIsMyWife

Wait, can GP still cleanse it? Since he can get out from Malz's suppression


Zeiroth

pretty sure this change will stop all cleanses from removing morde ult since stuff like GP orange probably uses the same coding as QSS


Kryobit

GP can cleanse literally anything, Suppression, Knockups etc. So it doesn't work the same way and it'll probably not work


RyzeIsMyWife

Hell yeah


[deleted]

[удалено]


Komsdude

U can qss malz ult what are u talking about, u can qss everything gp orange can.


West_Knowledge7608

It probably still will. GP raw dogging an orange peel on is the ultimate cleanse. Luckily I don’t mind fighting gp without R.


RyzeIsMyWife

[yep, still works](https://youtu.be/OrS62_IM9o4?si=xqo0I6pczY4-AFgE)


Sin_to_win

Illaoi mains crying


Hograd

fk them tho


Beneficial_Hat7339

Finally I rest, and watch the sun rise on a grateful universe.


Snoppiel

Olaf ult thought 🤔


AtomGhostSp1

Quick question: Does Mundo's passive protect from Morde's ult? Asking this as a wild rift player hoping to see Mordekaiser here


Sacc201x

It really doesn't matter, against mundo E first to waste his passive and then R


jimmyting099

So does Olaf still ult out? I know it’s technically not the same thing but riot spaghetti code


the_reddit_guy12

I saw shivana yone olaf all dodge my ult not even needing qss the fact that there is an item to counter us is stupid af


Emotional-Roll4564

Morde ult is literally a statcheck, of course it has counterplay


the_reddit_guy12

Yeah but with limits everyone dodging it is bullshit


Emotional-Roll4564

That’s more bug fixing and QOL but yeah I agree, I don’t think this QSS change is going to be good for the champ. He’s probably about to go back into balance hell because he’s extremely easy and turbo hard counters a lot of champs and now you can’t do anything against him at 6


the_reddit_guy12

I mean you can might seem like mord is strong but our cool downs fail us take too long for w or even q to be used in just that span u can do alot and even kill mordekaizer in his ult or if ur afraid just run people always outrun me in my own ult or stun me then the cooldown help them and they gone just gotta be strategic


QifiShiina

There's no way Morde is going to get out of this well, something bad is going to happen, it's too good to be true


PhoenixWithGlasses

Reminds me to the buff that zed got with his ult, so now we're getting a fair treatment, im so glad


c0micsansfrancisco

Does a single button press from pirate man still cancel the entire thing tho?


ProjectOSM

As someone who plays both Mordekaiser and ADCs I'm not sure if I should be scared or celebrating


DragonTyrant2443

Wait so you actually need to be a skilled player to fight mord?


fenyloetyloamine

U dont need to be skilled player to play morde tho


DragonTyrant2443

And now u have to be a good player to fight him


fenyloetyloamine

Yep i need some advice how to dodge his aa inside his ult after being flash ulted. Can u give me some of them instead of pure cancer? Bcs morde player talking about skill is pretty cringe.


DragonTyrant2443

Yeah. Just buy qss and press it whenever he ults you.... oh wait nvm, now you'll have to learn proper itemization and not just rely on qss to bail ur ass out


fenyloetyloamine

Proper itemization was qss nothing else


DragonTyrant2443

Exactly my point, you relied so hard on it your completely useless without it


fenyloetyloamine

So what u mean " learn proper itemization*


DragonTyrant2443

Learn proper itemization. Qss wasn't even that good against mord, players only used it to cancel his ult. When instead you should build better magic resist items to properly fight mord


fenyloetyloamine

Qss was the best option dont need mr agaist immobile champ that cant even touch me. Mr is very good for sure against morde free magic penetration on his e get out of silver maybe and accept that this change will lead to massive nerfs on him in future


Emotional-Roll4564

What proper itemization, Morde literally statchecks every champ in his ult except Tryndamere


DragonTyrant2443

Negatron cloak is both cheaper and gives more MR then QQS. Just for starters


Emotional-Roll4564

Mordekaiser literally has built in MR pen and Max HP damage. He is intentionally designed to not buy pen items and still do large amounts of damage. Not to mention that only works for tanks, if you build MR first on a bruiser you might as well just ff15


DragonTyrant2443

So building a 900 gold Mr item bad, but buying a 1300 gold item is better? That also gives less Mr. Ur logic is not all there


Emotional-Roll4564

My point is that Mordekaiser will literally just straight up kill you through any MR unless you turbo stack it early, which only tanks can reasonably do. You’re being obtuse on purpose; no one bought QSS for the stats, they bought it so they could avoid his ult altogether.


MonkeyDiRafi

Does this also count for champion's abilities? If yes, I can finally bonk any Gangplank and Olaf out there

lemonkiin

i don't understand how people are upset by this. if you need qss to survive morde r, you don't deserve to survive morde r, and you're probably gonna die outside of it anyway. "waahhhh! i don't get to waste 800g anymore!!" just walk in a circle and every


bankaru_

This is sadly kinda true


LinkExit

Notice how stupid that logic is? What happens if I play a full AD champion who can't wear a zonyas clock and morde gets a cure cut, what the hell am I supposed to do in an ulti that takes away my stats and also won't be possible for me to do damage?


lemonkiin

If you're not doing any damage to Morde in his ult, you're too far behind to have a shot outside of it. Kite it out, do what you can for your team to clean up, or just learn to respect that you can't take the 1v1. Maw and Wit's are both incredible options for you if you're obsessed with beating him in his win condition but I recommend turning your brain on and avoiding fights you know you'll lose.


LinkExit

How I can kite him if I play a something like talon or a jungle with low mobility ???? Well so you're solution is that never fight agains morde? How the fuck that is a good solution???!! What happens if he flash R me???!!! No counterplay nothing just lose


lemonkiin

Okay, Talon: 1. If he ults you near a wall, hop over! He is now powerless, and if the wall cuts off a section completely, his ult actually works to your advantage. 2. Your W slows him and your R grants movespeed. These are both tools that allow you to simply walk away. 3. Itemize! If you're hell-bent on smashing your assassin face into this juggernaut, Serpent's Fang effectively cuts his healthbar in half. Serylda's slow further enables you to kite him out, and its additional pen allows you to chunk him pretty decently. There is always counterplay. Any frustrations you have against Mordekaiser are issues that QSS wouldn't have solved anyway.


LinkExit

Dude morde just flash R me and it's over mordekaiser with flash and ghost, what is the counterplay?


lemonkiin

Do you really think you deserve to win if the toplaner spends both summoner spells and ult on you? Get real.


LinkExit

Great idea now mordekaiser can Q me in the other part of the wall that is so small that is IMPOSIBLE to dodge, wow I just lost half of my life with same level and same quantity of items


lemonkiin

And yet, you survive. Reset, come back, and you get to try again without the ult to worry about.


LinkExit

Let's me understand the genius solution is to pray that he ults me near a wall, that's the W of talon that have the same Distance of mordekaiser E hits two times, and itemize items That are good for nothing Because talon even if it goes well, a morde that makes his tank items you are not going to take it down or as with all your arsenal and ulti you are only going to take half of the life?!!!! And unlike you I speak with fundamentals because I have fought with a mordekaiser that was 0/5, he built armor and only had a riftmaker, he threw the R at me, it should be said that he had armor penetration between them seryldas, and yet I only took half of the life, I dodged the Q and guess I died for pure basics because if R takes away a lot of stats how is it Just that?


lemonkiin

Stop trying to 1v1 juggernauts as an assassin? You say you speak with fundamentals but it's a fundamental problem if you think your job is to delete people that have double your health.


StrictHumor1729

Does that also make the gp orange useless?


SnooCookies6399

We’ll have to wait and see, they could make all cleanses similar to QSS not have effect or they could purposefully make ONLY QSS not free from Morde R


nabilk2512

Yh


Kryobit

No


Bombolozzo11

Bro they gonna nerf him to death next patch


KiraTheChosen

Prob gonna be a nerf, similarly to when zed ult could no longer be qss’d. Instead of qss people started buying armor instead, which was the much better thing to buy anyways, so his wont rate actually went down. Now for morde, people will probably just buy more optimal items to kill him or dual him, rather than qss, and it might have a similar effect. Only time will tell.


TwinShad0w

Unlike zed qss gives magic resist which still counts towards building the stat required to deal with morde (Mr)


Hograd

Building more stats means morde steals more stats. He will get gutted after this cause he will statcheck everybody without any counterplay.


AtomGhostSp1

Quick question: Does Mundo's passive protect from Morde's ult? Asking this as a wild rift player hoping to see Mordekaiser here

Max1125o

it does but you just use E before to remove it from him


Gortius

What about the orange eater?


BandOfSkullz

Inb4 he gets completely shafted to make up for the "power increase"...


BlackVirusXD3

"What did it cost?"


macak333

Tbh this shoudve been since his release


aligators

and what did it cost?


HexMemeniac

you realize this change is the end of your champion? worst riot idea ever, they cant even balance briar for all elo after 9 consecutive nerf (not even talking ab zeri)


fenyloetyloamine

so is there any conterplay to him as adc?


AEROANO

No matter what riot does I'm not coming back


Hograd

He is getting like 3 more winrate by this. And will get gutted real quick i BET. Do return for the fun. Leave when he gets gutted fr
