I would go Glacial Shroud into Frozen Heart (ESPECIALLY versus GP), Wit's End. Then something situational like Spirit Visage or Madred's or Guardian Angel.

It's not magewick just because you go doran's and sorc shoes, those are mainly to help out his Q in the early game.

I was counting the mana regen in helping out his Q, since it is expensive and it's basically all he uses. :P

I'd never go sorc's shoes unless I go magewick. The Dorans I can understand. Like on an early master yi!
If you for some reason want to follow my ranked journey to gold, you can do it Here.

I am against asking for rep, only rep me if you think I contributed well or said something wise.

Remember his Q scales with enemy max health, so it will always do a good amount of damage even when you don't build AP - but it is reduced by MR.

Sorc shoes will help you with that.

Merc tread or ninja tabi make the most of the heals and give other great benefits that sorc don't.

I'd say the defensive shoes are the better pick up :3

Still a work in progress...

I might eventually release a guide for it if it's stronky but I'm still in week one of testing. Builds could evolve and change over time.

Right now the main core is Merc treads revolver spirit visage :D



Oh please.

Suddenly good on Morde *Chuckle* Small children could be suddenly good on Morde xP



He's good enough. There's some match ups he wins and others he loses. :P Naturally.



Who were you? Skarner?

And why wouldn't a player in ranked bring the right runes for the job, lol?

I would think it's MORE likely that you're gonna get counter runes in rank, bub.

You can't change your rune pages while in champion select. Most solo top champions are countered with AD, so most solo top rune pages don't take magic resist glyphs. I was trying to prove that GP and Udyr don't counter WW, not that magic resist glyphs and magic resist items don't counter him...

Wait Luther beat you in the lane?

He wasn't meant to take flat magic resist glyphs, lol. All my damage early game on WW comes from that one magic damage spell. Take magic resist glyphs, and my early-game advantage is canceled 'till I get sorcerer's shoes. Take another magic resist item on the first recall, and my entire game advantage is canceled. :S We were playing a game because I said Udyr and GP aren't good counters to WW. And they weren't... His BUILD was a counter to WW.

Even some AD WW's go with Sorcerer's Shoes for extreme damage with Bloodrazor + Ult combo. And even with Magewick I rush Bloodrazor. Reason being if I stack purely AP, I'm only increasing the damage from my Q. But if I rush Bloodrazor and build AP afterwards, I can take off about 60% of anyone's health with my ult, then take off the remaining health with Q.
