I suggest putting 21 offense into that tree for the nice bonus damage and the ability power bonuses. If you already are in that tree, why not dig deeper? c:

I don't have that problem, sorry.

Hello, I just created an account on this server to respond you.
I play morde several months now, and no else character. At first I was buying frozen heart every game too, because it stacked with armor and CDR, and there was no other such item. I Was winning always, because of good cooldown.
I kept my shield charged up all the time, and had good spellwamp, from runes, masteries and items.
When somebody said frozen heart sucks, I told him to read more internet ****ty guides and things like this.

But now, I play ranked only. When I play against some good players, which on my low elo - 1250 occurs on 20% of games, they focus only you, and you dont have many times a chance to get another round, no matter CDR, and you cant run, too. Because there is only played 5v5 late game, if somebody is alone they kill him and then wipe the whole team


also whole team attack only you, morde and nobody else, and they also stun you and put you in air, and everybody ulties you, because they know morde is the strongest character.

So your only chance is to damage them as quick as possible, before you die, and zorya wont help you survive, bacause when you use it, they are everywhere around you, and when you get back from stasis, you are last one alive.

The problem is you dont have every game a luxury that some very good tank initiates and granting you space to strike - it is many times that your team is weak, and nobody initiates to make you space, and also when they attack they attack only you first, and there is not always good tank to carry their first wave. Maybe later, on better elo, you will have good company which will keep you alive to do your low CDR - everytime shield show, but not now. Now you must follow basics - and that is to everytime get their ghost, and kill at least one - you must do this on one burst. Because else you will not win enough to get on higher elo. Dont play with frozen heart now, it is only for mordekaisers who can rely on their teammates, relly on them their will survive first wave. But again then it weakens you, why? Because you can get CDR from DFG, masteries and runes. But morde cooldowns good enough without reduction. And get armor from someting else, because when you get shield on, you got over 200 armor, some 218 i think, and that is ridiculosly much, because from 200 armor to 300, you get only 5 percent damage reduction for this 100 points, so you dont make even 1 percent damage reduction here. And also you waste money on mana, money is key factor in lol, you know sure. I also have some experience, I played with frozen heart over 200 times with morde.



Thats all I wanted to tell you about frozen heart, I hope you will be succesfull
Best regards

Why so much hate on this guide..

Down vote me and leave please.

I suggest you change Frozen Heart to Rabadon's Deathcap - more AP, more damage, no need for cdr

His shield scales with armor and magic resist.

He also has a huge damage increase from CDR.

DFG is probably the only 100% core item on mordekaiser.

Can't say much about Vladimir, but Mordekaiser needs more AP, than armor, because he got his own shield

That's like saying they are bad on Vladimir. The mana is the only stat wasted, CDR, armor and the aura is too gud on anyone, man. >.>

disagree with dfg and frozen heart (morde has no mana)

I don't really have HP problems mid game.

The spell vamp combined with my resists keeps me up, health is a weak stat compared to armor/mr on morde.

Spell Vamp outscales hp/5 into late game, and it's all at once instead of over time, which i like.

I don't currently build this, but i haven't played any morde in solo queue lately, i've been playing more ranked 5's stuff. That guide is coming out soon(tm).

I am very suprised to see this at 33%, what? Are people that used to Rab/lich/DFG morde? Their caitlyn will eventually not walk into your bush lol.

And why do people always hate items giving mana on manaless champs? Frozen heart is one of the best items for its cost, like aegis.

I like the guide alot. How do HP regen quints compare to your spellvamp temzilla? I think the build is agood order, but the one thing I might recommend, would working in a giants belt earlier, (not finishing rylais/mogs) help your mid game alot? You get very good defenses from Glacial Shroud and Abbysal, bu without very much health to back it up. Your shield is essentially alot of extra health, but I think the belt would help a good amount. Nice build!
