You need TriForce because it incorporates Luden MovSpd(similar, you lose 2-3%, that's like 4-6 movspd, not such a big deal over 10+) and Sheen Items into one. Because Mordekaiser has pretty good Base AD, it makes a good single item on him. Yes, some stats are wasted(Crit Chance and Mana) but it makes more sense than building a whole lot of items.

Then you should get some form of Spellvamp and CDR on him, before you even consider Rylais. Rylai is fine enough as a third item rush.

Dead Man's Plate is very good, yes, but you should also consider getting a Void Staff for his base damage and ratios too. After those two are out of the way, make way for any sort of item you need. Rabadon spikes his damage up but it's up to you.
