Who Wins
- You win pre-6 through superior range and poke potential, able to harass with Q-E combos while staying outside Mordekaiser's threat range.
- Post-6 becomes much more dangerous as his R forces extended fights where he excels, though you can still win if you maintain range advantage and avoid getting pulled by E.
How to Trade
- Your optimal trading pattern involves Q-E poke from maximum range, then switching to hammer form for W-Q-E burst if he gets close, immediately disengaging with hammer E knockback.
- Never commit to extended trades as his passive proc and W shield/heal will out-sustain your damage over time.
Wave Control
- Push early waves to establish range control and deny his farm, but transition to freezing once he hits level 6 to avoid overextending into R range.
- Maintain vision control as getting ganked while pushed means certain death in his R realm.
Mistakes to Avoid
- Never fight extended trades or all-ins, especially after level 6 when his R guarantees a long fight where he stat-checks you.
- Avoid getting hit by his E pull as it sets up his full combo and passive stacks, leading to unfavorable extended engagements.
