Who Wins
- Pre-6: You win through superior range, turret zone control, and consistent poke damage that prevents Mordekaiser from engaging effectively.
- Post-6: Mordekaiser wins as his R removes you from your turret setup and forces a 1v1 where his stats and sustained damage are superior.
How to Trade
- Maintain maximum range while poking with W rockets and auto attacks, using your turrets to create safe zones he cannot enter.
- When he tries to engage with E, immediately use your own E to stun him and kite backwards while your turrets focus him.
Wave Control
- Push the wave constantly to maintain turret control in the lane and force Mordekaiser to farm under tower where he's vulnerable to poke.
- Place turrets strategically to control key areas and always have an escape route planned.
Mistakes to Avoid
- Don't let Mordekaiser get close enough to land E consistently, as his all-in potential becomes overwhelming once he closes the gap.
- Avoid fighting him post-6 without your turrets up, as his R completely negates your main source of damage and zone control.
