Mordekaiser
Champions that beat Mordekaiser
- Dr Mundotop
Infected Bonesaw (Q) chips from 975 outside Obliterate (Q) range, and Goes Where He Pleases (P) eats Death's Grasp (E) pull for free. Inside Realm of Death (R) Mundo wins the extended duel since Maximum Dosage (R) outsustains Indestructible (W) shield.
- Fioratop
Riposte (W) parries Realm of Death (R) activation and refunds the cooldown, neutralizing the kit Mordekaiser needs most for the 1v1. Lunge (Q) repositions to vital marks Duelist's Dance (P) and Grand Challenge (R) true damage out-trades Indestructible (W) shield economy.
- Gangplanktop
Parrrley (Q) range stays outside Obliterate (Q) cast radius; chained Powder Keg (E) interrupts the wind-up by chipping him out of the Death Realm (R) opening window. Remove Scurvy (W) cleanses Death's Grasp (E) pull during the slow drag.
- Gnartop
Mordekaiser has no dash and no ranged poke; Boomerang Throw (Q) plus Hyper (W) third-hit out-trade Mini Gnar from outside Death's Grasp (E) range. Hop (E) escapes Obliterate (Q) windup and GNAR! (R) Mega form stuns Mordekaiser into a wall before Realm of Death (R) can drag him.
- Gragastop
Body Slam (E) interrupts Obliterate (Q) wind-up before the melee animation lands, and Drunken Rage (W) damage reduction soaks Death's Grasp (E) pull DOT. Realm of Death (R) is countered by Explosive Cask (R) knocking him off the target line.
- Heimerdingertop
Realm of Death (R) requires closing to melee against three turrets firing simultaneously; Death's Grasp (E) pull runs into CH-2 Electron Storm Grenade (E) stun in the approach zone. Obliterate (Q) lands on turrets, not Heimer who kites at 1325 W range.
- K'Santetop
Obliterate (Q) caps at 600 range and Death's Grasp (E) pull is interrupted by Path Maker (W) charged stun. Indestructible (W) shield is broken through Ntofo Strikes (Q) 2-stack detonation, and All Out (R) slams Mordekaiser before Realm of Death (R) can pull K'Sante in.
- Kayletop
Mordekaiser cannot punish Kayle pre-6 without burning Realm of Death (R) — Divine Judgment (R) self-cleanse breaks the realm timer. Obliterate (Q) caps at 600 range and Death's Grasp (E) pull is dodged by Celestial Blessing (W) speed boost.
- Quinntop
Mordekaiser has no dash and no ranged poke; Harrier (P) marked auto plus Blinding Assault (Q) blind out-trade from outside Death's Grasp (E) range. Vault (E) knock-back interrupts Obliterate (Q) windup and Behind Enemy Lines (R) global lets Quinn rotate from Realm of Death (R)
- Riventop
Obliterate (Q) is a slow ground-target slam with clear telegraph and Death's Grasp (E) is a short pull on a long cooldown. Riven cancels every Q cast with a Valor (E) sidestep, then Q-resets onto him for a Runic Blade proc chain — out-mobilising him every trade.
- Singedtop
Obliterate (Q) is a slow ground-target slam and Death's Grasp (E) is a short pull. Singed kites the Realm of Death (R) zone by Mega Adhesive (W) grounding the dash window and Noxious Slipstream into the wall, while Insanity Potion (R) wins every chase out of the death dimension.
- Teemotop
Mordekaiser has no dash and no ranged poke; Blinding Dart (Q) plus Toxic Shot (E) on-hit out-sustain from outside Death's Grasp (E) range. Guerrilla Warfare (P) stealth in bush denies Death's Grasp (E) lock-on and Noxious Trap (R) zones his approach paths.
- Vaynebot
Mordekaiser has no dash and no ranged poke; Tumble (Q) plus Silver Bolts (W) percent-HP true damage out-trade from outside Death's Grasp (E) range. Condemn (E) knock-back interrupts Obliterate (Q) windup and Final Hour (R) bonus AD scales harder than Realm of Death (R) stat
- Vladimirmid
Vladimir Transfusion (Q) hits from 600 range outside Mordekaiser Obliterate (Q) reach, so the trade favors range. Sanguine Pool (W) untargetable dodges Realm of Death (R) lock window, denying his only all-in path and Indestructible (W) shield does not refresh inside the pool.
- Yoricktop
Dark Procession W cages Mordekaiser and Mourning Mist E marks him for the ghoul swarm plus the Maiden. Realm of Death R 1v1 ult pulls Yorick into a sub-zone but his Mist Walkers and Maiden remain in lane chunking towers while the timer runs.
- Zaahentop
Aureate Rush E closes the gap on demand and Dreaded Return W pulls Mordekaiser out of Death's Grasp E pull range. Indestructible W shield breaks fast under Zaahen's empowered Q double-slash, and Obliterate Q wind-up is dodged by the W pull repositioning.
Champions Mordekaiser beats
- Dariustop
Mordekaiser thrives in extended trades — Indestructible (W) shield stores the damage Decimate (Q) and Hemorrhage (P) bleed pump into him and Darkness Rise (P) aura ticks during the whole fight.
- Garentop
Mordekaiser thrives in extended trades — Indestructible (W) shield stores the damage Judgment (E) spin pumps into him and Darkness Rise (P) aura ticks during the whole fight.
- Illaoitop
Realm of Death (R) drags Illaoi into a 1v1 death realm where her placed Tentacles cannot reach. Without Test of Spirit (E) tentacle slams to multiply damage, Illaoi loses the duel and feeds Morde permanent stats.
- Renektontop
Renekton beats Morde levels 1-5 with Cull the Meek (Q) sustain and Dominus stun, but his kit has no answer to Realm of Death (R) post-6: a clean R off the wave isolates him from his team and Mordekaiser wins the 1v1 with stolen stats.
- Setttop
Mordekaiser thrives in extended trades — Indestructible (W) shield stores the damage Haymaker (W) charge pumps into him and Darkness Rise (P) aura ticks during the whole fight.
