Who Wins
- You win early trades pre-6 through superior range and sustain, as your Q sweetspots outrange Mordekaiser's Q and your passive healing keeps you healthy.
- Post-6 becomes Mordekaiser favored since his R isolates you from minion healing and his sustained damage output exceeds yours in extended fights.
How to Trade
- You want to land Q1 or Q2 sweetspots then immediately disengage before Mordekaiser can respond with his full combo.
- Avoid extended trades where his passive activates, as his sustained DPS with conqueror will outdamage your burst pattern.
Wave Control
- You should maintain a slow push to build up minions for healing, then crash and recall to avoid Mordekaiser's all-in windows.
- Never let the wave freeze on his side as you lose access to minion sustain and become vulnerable to his R engage.
Mistakes to Avoid
- You must never fight in Mordekaiser's R without minions nearby for healing, as you lose your primary sustain advantage.
- Don't use your E aggressively for engage as you need it to escape his E pull and create distance for Q sweetspot follow-ups.
