    Wait, two? I haven't bought a single page, and I have 3.

    They gave out free ones a while ago.

    Yeah, but I didn't start playing LoL until after that, I'm pretty sure.

    There was a steam sig here. It's gone now.

    So, after talking with Wicked today before and after we had those crazy wins, he suggested I take up Mordekaiser. My first question would that if I get him, is it better to go sorc/sunfire/FoN/rylai/something/something like the top rated Mobafire guy suggests, or glass cannon with a lich/deathcap/non sorc boots/gunblade/somethingx2 like Dyrus and Vman7?

    I build him a good mix. I've actually had some success focusing on his Q with a Frozen Mallet / Wriggle's / Triforce. One single auto attack on someone usually means they are dead without being able to escape with that build.

    I think he's not dangerous enough with all defense and not tanky enough with all offense. All offense is begging to be CC chained and do 0 damage with a melee no initiate / no escape champ.

    For shoes, I personally recommend Merc or Boots 3. I see the value of Sorc, but I'd rather have tenacity of be able to run after people to murder them.

    The tankiness of your build should depend on how much CC / burst the enemy team has and whether your team has someone who is tanky already .

    edit: To elaborate, I had a very successful game as Morde where I was going pure death and carrying hard. I lost the game for our team by getting Ashe arrowed and killed before I could do anything. If I had grabbed a guardian angel instead of a Rylais or Abyssal Scepter I would be up and ulting as my team piled in.
    personally I like building him fat as opposed to braverykaiser in most games

    like sorc shoes/rhylais/sunfire/fon/abyssal/whatever

    I thought about both, and I was thinking Sorc/Sunfire/FoN/Deathcap.....for the other two items out of the 3 I wanted are Lichbane, Gunblade, and Voidstaff. If I go Void/Lich, more punch. Void/Gunblade looks like better sustain.

    Not that I'd probably ever finish either build but I'd come close since Morde farms without trying while he kills people. I'd be carrying around a Sheen or Revolver for most of the game then and they both cost around the same.

    Lichbane needs a lot of AP to make it better than Sheen for all that additional money.
    Someone send me a rune page. Having two is infuriating.

    I can empathize. That said, I'm living like a king with my 11 rune pages.

    I always keep one page for jungle WW

    then before I press solo queue I have to decide what i'm going to do and hope no one instalocks the role I decided on. Bad times. I guess I should just give them my money dollars and buy that rune page bundle.

    I'd recommend it.

    That said, if you keep your runepages nice and generic you can afford to have significantly fewer of them.

    Hmmm.... The AP including lichbane comes out to 391 or so. Kinda in the middle.

    Right, so it is a net benefit, but only towards the end. I just see so many Lichbanes completed before it is really worth the 2K difference that I felt the need to state such.

    What I meant was, is it usually better to be tanky and you live and take a few out as a result, or walk up to them and alpha strike them as a glass cannon and if they aren't dead, they're so low that someone else will mop them up.

    Play both. Pick which items are most appropriate based on team composition. That's the point of keeping it flexible.

    I never go AP Yi.

    I should try that.

    I think I'll just go revolver and then gunblade near the end for now, since Mace does what Sheen does roughly. If it doesn't work well, I can always switch it up later.

    I like fon, gunblade, sunfire, abyssal, lichbane. Makes you very fast, resistant to burst, sustainable and can carry like a champ

    Which is, incidentally, the reason I love Sheen on him. Just save the completion for late game. But an earlyish sheen is nothing to sneeze at.

    No, SOP is to throttle logins after a server reboot to prevent overloading anything.

    Gah! Now I can't decide again. If I go Merc's, I'd need the Voidstaff, wouldn't I? 20 from Abyssal wouldn't be enough with the 9 in runes and 15% from offense, would it?

    So the 7 runepage bundle is just that, 7 runepages? No runes included?

    I'm guessing with fiddles you want to go high life and AP due to his drain? Thinking about messing with him to possibly jungle with at 30

    Also want to possibly learn the cursed troll guy.

    Probably better not to post them in forums, as I learned earlier some lurker(s) will probably snatch them up.

    Yeah runepage bundle doesn't include runes. Lot's of people get rylai's on fiddle for the slow and HP along with AP.

    Gunblade Sona was also a smashing success. Started doran's blade and flashed into the tower for a double kill on Ashe and Janna at level 1, leveled me to 2 so I took speed and walked out.

    Waiting for Kayle to unlock so I can roll the gunblades out with her.

    Maybe I might try gunblade Nidalee. Get a spirit visage in there somewhere as well I think.

    I really dig the new Soraka, even if I played maybe three games with the old one.

    But I wish people would read patch notes and not expect heals as often as before.

    Do funky build competitions for them.

    Retarded Udyr competition last time was awesome.
