With the Master of Metal’s reemergence as the Iron Revenant, ready and raring to rend souls and send his foes to the Realm of Death, we wanted to collect everything you’ll need to know about the new and improved Mordekaiser in one place. Abandon hope all ye who enter here.

Gameplay and Abilities

Passive – Darkness Rise

Mordekaiser’s basic attacks deal bonus magic damage. After three spells or attacks against a champion, Darkness Rise deals damage to nearby enemies and gives movement speed until Mordekaiser is out of combat.

Q – Obliterate

Mordekaiser slams down his mace, dealing damage in an area or bonus damage to a single enemy.

W – Indestructible

The evil overlord absorbs 25% of damage taken and damage dealt. Casting once generates a shield with this value. Mordekaiser can cast again to consume 50% of the shield for health.

E – Death’s Grasp

Passive: Mordekaiser gains 25% Magic Penetration.

Active: A deadly claw drags enemies towards him, dealing damage.

R – Realm of Death

Mordekaiser banishes a single enemy champion to the Death Realm for a 7 second 1v1, stealing a percent of their core stats. If he kills his target, he consumes their soul, keeping their partial stats until they respawn.
