Riot: "Morde became a little worse for wear after losing his Liandry's + Rylai's combo, but was at the very least propped up by Riftmaker's in 10.23. With Riftmaker nerfed in 10.24, we are looking to give some power back to Morde himself so he's not so reliant on a specific item or item combo."
Singed had his item combos removed for some time now. The nerf to the HP mage items has not helped his situation at all. 150 hp for a full mythic mage item. This has happened with many of the champions out there due to the item changes, but it seems riot has chosen to help the 1 shot kings than help tank mages.
This screams that they do not care about the community of a certain champion at all. Either remove the champions that are hit hard by the new items, or buff them to allow them to be played again well. Morde should have NEVER been buffed. What should've been buffed is the items he uses. Crystal scepter is now 3k gold instead of the 2600 it once was and gives no buff to HP on the final upgrade(Giant's belt gives 350HP). Old crystal scepter was much better. Who cares if the slow was 5% more or 10% less based on not aoe or aoe damage? I think the 400 gold less cost was worth it more than the one in this new season. Literally you have to pick between tank or damage. If you build the Crystal scepter you lose damage and tankyness vs building demonic embrace first. Which by the way Demonic Embrace is the same as the crystal scepter 350 hp on final upgrade for no other reason than to nerf mage tanks.
What are your thoughts of new buff to champions instead of the "perfect new item" mentality that riot has? I think the mage mythics with hp or any hp item that has the same hp stats before upgrade need to be reworked to give more HP.
