OP, you're asking why would Mord use Lich Bane since he doesn't have mana when the passive is what makes the item. Plus, Mord is a tanky caster.

To elaborate a little more, Mord would pick this item up when the enemy team has more than one AP.

When he is attacking one target, Mord's Q synergizes with the Lich Bane proc more than any other spell in the game.

Mace of Spades - "On next hit, Mordekaiser swings his mace with such force that it echoes out, striking up to 3 additional nearby targets, dealing magic damage. If the target is alone, the ability deals 65% more damage".

It also gives a chunk of health back too if you have spell vamp, which Mord will because WotA is part of his core.
