Yeah, I found that being on the defensive side of things helps alot, but Morde needs to do ridiculous damage to scare his opponents away at the start of a game. I had a practise one v one with my friend the other day, he played Gangplank, and he couldn't touch my health bar at the start, but once he got items rolling in, I was screwed. I couldn't deal enough damage to keep my shield up and I wasn't strong enough to burst him because of the oranges. I usually try and build Rylai's for health and slow, Liandries for health and deceptively strong burn, and Gunblade for sustain and because it will make my Q do 10 billion damage, even with only one point in it. Then usually spirit visage or randuins to up the defences. Going on for a offensive build only ups your burst for about 200-400 damage, which honestly isn't enough, although it does mean your ulti takes away about 50% of the enemies life. And I usually vs tanks in top lane, so Liandries is usually the first finished item I get. I'm still learning Morde, so I'm honestly jusr following what you guys say.
