Mordekaiser Build Guide by TheUn4givenRage

+1

Love the build and the whole thing.
Love playing Mordekaiser :)

Build works brilliantly. you have to get the runes if you want this to work.
Cant die sometimes :P

At the moment I have not found my perfect Mordekaiser build. This guide helped me a lot, but I hope it will get updated soon.

Also I would like to discuss some Items ( good suggestions recently here btw.) and some Problems I have.
1.
Most game i feel like Mordekaiser lacks CC. For that reason i tried rushing Hextech Gunblade, or Randuin's Omen. But in most cases these are too expensive early game. So i feel for CC I should stick with Rylai's Crystal Scepter. ( I also gave picking Exhasut as a Sommoner Spell a thoght. But imho Ignote synergises much better which Morde's Ultimate)

2. Morde gets locked down easyliy. For that reason I gave Mercury's Treads a thought. But early gane that Sorcercer's shoes are pretty darn great for their gold cost. The other tenacity items are (imho) **** on Morde. (Except maybe Moonflair spellblade. Bu in most cases for the gold not that great. Also it takes away a needed item slot. you cant't build on it....). I think I may run Mercury's in some games and buy a Void Staff later.

3. Most agree that Morde needs to Rush a Hextech Revolver. Although that Spellvamp isnt enough. I think early game Will of the ancients really is the best option. ( as mentioned above, the slow from hextech gunblade is great, but the item is just too expensive for early game). For Spellvamp I will give Spirit Visage a shot, beceause 15% more health is really great, and 10% CDR is also very good for a DPS mage.

4. As we speka of CDR: CDR is also great on Morde. In some games when I get blue buff( from a kill for example) the 20% CDR from the Buff REALLY helps Morde. But in most games you dont' get blue buff too much. (Because Champions who need mana should get it first). ( Also concerning the buffs: The red buff is also usefule to Morde in some cases, slow and health regen does not hurt. But same as blue in most cases someone else should get the buff. (Correct me if I am wrong :)))

nice guide..hope it helps me, when i started using morde i was a total beast but then they nerfed him and i havent won (or used him much) since then..he could use some more powerful abilities..i just always feel like im fighting people about 10 lvels above me even if were both lv18

+1 nice build , first time morede 16/6/15

Flipp'n amazing =D
I've been considering Morde for my next pickup, and this guide has more than sealed the deal.

man you are a pro morde and i want to thank you once again, for making me buy him. but i feel spellvamp can be replaced easily by FoN. i used to grab it all the time but now i dont feel it is worth to stop there instead to rush my cc from relais. try out some ap runes quintenstances. it is good to have a free dorans rings ap early game in twisted tree line.

i also forgot to mention i got a triple kill with morde in twisted tree line at 1v3 thx to your guideness sensei!

After losing badly to a morde in ranked, I decided to try this guy out and searched for a build. Came across this guide, followed the build, and fell in love with mordekaiser. I almost always go positive with him in ranked games and it's all thanks to your guide. Keep up the good work :D.

Also I'd like some input concerning the runes and masteries I use for him. For runes I run mag. pen reds, flat armor seals (not per level), magic resist glyphs (not per level), and the new spell vamp quints. For masteries I go 9/10/11; getting 10% magic pen, +30 health, and 3% spell vamp. My goal was to use spell vamp for early sustain instead of health regen and to add some early armor to counter ad harassment. It also adds some extra power to w.o.t.a. late game. If you could tell me pros and cons for this build,and how to manage the cons, I would greatly appreciate it. Thanks again!
