Playing as Mordekaiser

Tips to maximize your impact

  1. Hit a lone enemy with your Q

    Aim Obliterate (Q) at a lone enemy: if only one enemy is hit, the damage increases.

  2. Activate your passive, then stay close

    Hit champions or monsters three times, then stay close: Darkness Rise (passive) then surrounds you with a damage aura and gives you move speed.

  3. Pull them into your Q

    Pull your targets into the Obliterate (Q) zone with Death's Grasp (E): each spell that hits also counts toward Darkness Rise (passive).

  4. Tank with Indestructible

    Cast Indestructible (W) when you're taking damage: it turns stored damage into a shield, and a recast converts part of it into health.

  5. Isolate the carry in your R

    Cast Realm of Death (R) on their carry, or their jungler near an objective: you isolate them with you, steal part of their stats, and keep them if you kill them.

Playing against Trundle

How to counter and exploit weaknesses

  1. Draw him out of his domain

    Don't fight in Frozen Domain (W): he gains move speed, attack speed and increased healing inside. Back off to draw him out of the zone.

  2. Back off after his Chomp

    If you deal physical damage, back off after his Chomp (Q): it steals some of your attack damage for a few seconds, and he gains it.

  3. Get away from his pillar fast

    Get away from Pillar of Ice (E) as fast as you can: it slows nearby enemies and blocks the path while it stands.

  4. Back off when he steals your resists

    Back off when he casts Subjugate (R) on you: he steals part of your armor and magic resist, and gains what you lose.
