The reason Morde has to build essentially full damage is because unlike champs like Darius who gets passsive Armor Pen and his disgustingly strong passive or Illaoi with her W being %Health damage and her tentacles having stupid high base damages, Morde has pretty averages bases and scaling outside of his Q, which is by far one of the hardest abilities to land consistently on competent enemies.
If he stops building damage he's no longer a relevant damage threat, and a champion that literally does NOTHING but damage not doing damage is the definition of useless.
I've been saying for ages he needs some sort of %MR Shred in his kit and some passive that grants him additional damage so that he can actually be built tanky after 1-2 damage items and be a relevant frontline threat instead of the pussyfooting he tends to have to do in teamfights if he's not stupidly ahead

Rumble, trundle, gankplank cant kill him but maokai cant kill gp either and cant stop him from farming and scaling

Hunter Lee
His rework was just a failure, plain and simple, and now, despite his model and animations looking like complete shit, he'll have to wait until at least 2018 before he gets a proper VGU.
Henry Wright
>hey guys I missed all my e-qs last game >lets run that back
John Powell
So im reading how lethality is calculated and what is granted with lethality and i cant figure this shit out
Someone explain lethality as if its to a retard
Joshua Turner
Morde's laning phase is pretty fucking gay for a large majority of melee champions, and I'm saying this as someone who has 100K mastery on him. Especially if your jungler doesn't help
Ryder Collins
>lethality is just nerfed armorpen >armorpen wasn't nearly this cancerous
???????????????????
lolbabs?????????????
Blake Jackson
lethality is just scaling armor pen. it's worse than arpen at low levels and better at higher levels. riot replaced all flat armor pen with lethality, but there's more lethality than there used to be arpen before.
Asher Campbell
If you're laning against Morde and your jungler doesn't gank for you, he's retarded.
William Scott
I love Lissandra! Ama!
Joseph Perez
Shittier version of armor penetration which has been in the game the last two seasons and yet there were no asses-ins on the rift.

May this one upload correctly because this one was really fun. Sorry for the wait.

so what youre saying is
lethality is a fucking meme
and that flat armor pen will just werk(tm)
Carter Rogers
you deal a lot more damage against targets with low armor you deal a little bit more damage against targets with high armor

All these qt girls to be killed by! Who wants to write me "smut"?
Logan Ortiz
er, equal to arpen at higher levels. what i meant was that, in total (accounting for the differing amount), it's worse than arpen at earlier levels and better at later levels.
no. there is no more flat armor pen. it's replaced by lethality, which is just a scaling version of armor pen that's worse at lower levels so that assassins don't snowbal as hard (this was literally riot's rationale, but they added so much lethality to everything that it didn't work out).
Ian Gonzalez
I LOVE TO SUPPORT YOU ANONS!

good job suckling my dick janna-user
Gavin Ross
so if i built regards vs [insert lethality item here] chances are i will still come out on top given i have enough damage output
i just shoot people with 1400 shots every single shot on jhin, the only issue i ever encounter is hard cc or lethality early on, but as a match progresses lethality just feels like nothing
>no more flat armor pen >UNIQUE – GIANT SLAYER: Grants up to +15% bonus physical damage against enemy champions with greater maximum health than you (+1.5% damage per 50 health difference, maxing at 500 health difference). >UNIQUE – LAST WHISPER: +45% bonus armor penetration.
okay so... that 45% bonus armor pen is not flat, its scaling?
Josiah Collins
So i bought nunu and.....
how much fun i am gonna have?
Wyatt Evans
% scales with enemy armor you FUCKING RETARD
Cameron Cox
You could see this coming from a mile away, teams that find quick success the way FLY has usually end up falling off towards the end of the split. Happened with NV, happened with Gravity. Happened to LMQ (Though that was more because TSM and C9 began to figure them out).
Nathan Walker
that's percent armor pen, not flat and not scaling.
let's say i have 50 armor. if i remove 50% (percent) of it i have 25 armor. if i remove 20 (flat) of it have 30 armor.
Nolan Torres
Going to need 25 men to break her into a cumdump.
Eli Williams
I want to FUCK Leona!
Anthony Barnes
I want to get good at Nunu, but I always feel so useless no matter how many dragons I can get.
Grayson Foster
You don't have fun as Nunu, you prevent the enemy from having fun.
Isaac Jones
then it would say its the enemy's armor wouldnt it? goddamn user i know im fucking retarded, but come on, i dont read this shit. i just build what i want and any bonus effects are fine by me
ok thanks user
so if they have 50 armor, and you have 40 lethality, what would be the better option? shit like last whisper or just the lethality
Joshua Ward
Or just one man with a lot of dedication.
Tyler Walker
He's not that good right now but invading at level 2 Smite/Q the buff and walk out while spamming laugh will never fail to make someone tilt so do it nonstop.

D2 is still considered one of the best ARPGs.
Xavier Cruz

Isaac Evans
In worlds 2 or 3 years ago, Balls got a lot of negative attention training in korea because he couldn't get out of D2 and then he did alright in groups. so now Balls is forever stuck to a D2 joke.
Aaron Moore
do you guys have any tips for playing elise? im going to get her soon, also can you play her mid?
Andrew Phillips
last whisper only works on bonus armor (from items and runes) and not base armor (that characters start with and that grows with level).
you buy lethality against people with no armor items and last whisper against people with armor items.
50 armor is very low. that's a lower level character with 0 armor items. you'd buy lethality against that.
Gabriel Allen
