So, I will put in some logic for your mastery choices:

As stated above, Hard CC wrecks Morde. However, Juggernaut is useless to Morde because he gets "Health" from his passive, which is all about resists, CDs, and Spell Damage. Since there is no point in getting other masteries in the Defensive tree, you get Durability and Veteran's Scars so that you can live before you buy Spell Vamp. Honor Gaurd and Legendary armor give Morde a great deal of power as they both make building resists preferable over building health, which is a big deal. It means your shield will scale into late game better.
