"Overheal because you can get very substantial healing from your W, and Morde is good at maintaining a high health pool"

Imo, Overheal is actually only good on paper. It's a two-sided coin: you need high healing amounts to bring the shield up and a high health pool to keep a strong shield.

Unfortunately, the shield decays while you are out of combat, so you will constantly have to bring it back up. I tested it in a custom game for the same reasons you mentioned. And since it's only charged by 30% of active self-healing, I find it only to be worth it in a fight if you have an ally that heals you for the 300% effect).

That's why I also prefer Triumph instead.
