If Mordekaiser is not banned and you expect the other team to pick it, if you have Red Side, your job is to accomodate to a completely new style of gameplay and counter Mordekaiser. If you are Blue Side and Mordekaiser is not banned, you are forced to first pick him, risking giving up upto 2 powerpicks in the next rotation of picks and accomodate a team around Mordekaiser to succeed.

Its not a "Mordekaiser is Overpowered, so clearly he must be nerfed!" it's a thing about not having to deal with cheese in a Best of 1 in a phase of the tournament where you cannot adapt and you will have to play towards what is the strongest cheese. There has been a point where both teams knew they didn't want to or they didn't know how to play Mordekaiser and he went both unbanned and unpicked.

Competitive is a whole another thing than SoloQ, mate. People banning Mordekaiser in Groups is understandable. Please comeback with your essay after Quarters and a plethora of Best of 5 scenarios have happened.
