menu_bookHow to Play
Early Game
Levels 1–8
Mordekaiser has no dash, so every trade starts with you walking toward someone. Make that walk count: hit Obliterate when the enemy last-hits away from their own minions, and land three attacks or spells to light up Darkness Rise before you commit to a long trade. Indestructible stores part of the damage you deal and take; cast it when the enemy answers, then recast it to turn what is left of the shield into health. Death’s Grasp is your only way to keep someone in range, so do not waste it on poke at max distance. Mordekaiser and his core items are unchanged in 7.3b. What changed around him is Grasp of the Undying, which tanks and bruisers in your lane may run: it now deals 3% of max health instead of 3.3%.
- Reference build: Riftmaker → Liandry's Torment → Bloodletter's Curse → Zhonya's Hourglass → Rabadon's Deathcap.
- Summoner spells: Flash + Ignite.
- Death’s Grasp, Obliterate on the lone target, then Realm of Death if they try to Flash away. Inside the Realm, cast Indestructible early so you still have time to recast it for health.
Late Game
Levels 9–15
Realm of Death takes one enemy out of the fight for 7 seconds and steals part of their stats. Pick the target your team cannot handle: the fed carry who would delete your backline, or the tank whose engage your team cannot escape. Do not use it on someone you cannot beat one on one, because you only keep the stolen stats if you get the kill. Outside your ultimate, push a side wave and make two enemies come to you; Riftmaker and Indestructible let you hold that wave for a while, but leave before a third arrives.
Counters & Synergies
Solo Lane · Tier Ashield_with_houseCounters
Fiora
Riposte answers Death’s Grasp, and she ends her trades before your aura lights up. Fake the pull, wait for the parry and only then commit Realm of Death.
Kennen
He pokes from range and leaves with Lightning Rush while you have no dash to follow. Keep the wave near your tower and save Death’s Grasp for when he comes in to stack his marks.
Gwen
Hallowed Mist means only enemies inside it can target her, so you have to walk in before Realm of Death. Use the ultimate before she casts the Mist, or step into it first.
