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 the Realm of Death (R) activation — the ultimate is spent, Mordekaiser gets nothing back and waits 140 / 120 / 100 seconds. Lunge (Q) repositions onto vitals and Grand Challenge (R) true damage out-trades the 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 Realm of Death (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; in Mini form, Boomerang Throw (Q) and the Hyper (W) third hit out-trade him from outside Death's Grasp (E) range. Hop (E) escapes Obliterate (Q) wind-up, and Mega Gnar's R stuns him 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 675 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 675 range and Death's Grasp (E) pull is dodged by Celestial Blessing (W) speed boost.
- Quinntop
Mordekaiser has no dash and no ranged poke, so Harrier (P) plus Blinding Assault (Q) out-trade him from outside Death's Grasp (E) range. Vault (E) interrupts the Obliterate (Q) wind-up, and Behind Enemy Lines (R) lets Quinn leave lane before Realm of Death (R) can find her.
- 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-mobilizing him every trade.
- Singedtop
Obliterate (Q) is a slow ground-slam and Death's Grasp (E) a short pull, both punished by Mega Adhesive (W) before he closes. Singed cannot walk out of Realm of Death (R): nowhere to kite to, so survive the duration with Insanity Potion (R) up and take the wave back after.
- Teemotop
Teemo never has to enter Death's Grasp (E) range at all — Blinding Dart (Q) turns off the basic attacks Mordekaiser needs to build Darkness Rise (P), and Noxious Trap (R) closes the paths he would walk to reach her.
- 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, and Condemn (E) knock-back interrupts the Obliterate (Q) windup before Realm of Death (R) can ever be pressed.
- 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 the Ruthless Predator (W) 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.
