// MATCHUP STRATEGY

vs K'Sante — TOP

vs K'Sante — tank lane. Stat check matchup — sustained Conqueror damage > their passive. Don't trade level 1; level 2-3 short trades win.

EARLY · 1-6
Laning phase

Mordekaiser early lane is short-trade pressure. Start Doran's Shield + 2 pots. Conqueror keystone stacks during sustained trades — auto-Q-auto windows.

Freeze near tower if matched into ranged or skirmisher. Look for level 2 spike — second ability unlocks full damage rotatio...

MID · 7-13
Roam & trade

Goredrinker + Plated Steelcaps is the standard spike. Side lane pressure = your win condition. TP roam to bot lane for double-kill window, or shove top + flank dragon fight.

Black Cleaver 2nd item shreds armor for team. Death's Dance 3rd item makes you a 1v2 threat in sidelane....

LATE · 14+
Teamfights

Sidelane bully. Mordekaiser forces 1v2-1v3 attention while team takes objectives. In teamfights, walk through frontline to ADC — your sustain absorbs poke.

Sterak's Gage as 4th item = shield + tenacity vs CC chain. Avoid getting kited — Mercury's Treads + Sterak's tenacity....
