How to win lane as Kled against Mordekaiser · 55.02% win rate over 418 Emerald+ games · Updated 2026-07-27
| Stage | Favoured | Why |
|---|---|---|
| Level 1 | Even / skill | You both whiff level 1 — he has no isolation bonus yet and you keep Skaarl topped, so deny his Q farm and set up your level 2 spike. |
| Level 2 | Mordekaiser | His Q-slam already lands the isolated bonus and his W shield blunts your single shotgun volley before your re-E is online. |
| Level 3 | Mordekaiser | With E pull plus a ramped W shield he wins the drawn-out trade your level-3 combo can't finish, and his sustain heals your poke. |
| Levels 4-5 | Even / skill | You out-trade a pre-6 Morde with remount sustain, but his W shield keeps it even — neither of you secures the kill without a mistake. |
| Level 6 | Mordekaiser | His R drags you into Realm of Death, steals your stats, and removes Skaarl entirely — solo, you lose that 1v1 outright. |
| First item | Mordekaiser | One-item Morde stacks his W shield and wins the extended fight; your proc burst can't kill through it before his R resets the duel. |
| Two+ items | Kled | 2+ items your percent-HP Q and remount DPS shred his bulk faster than his W heals — close the lane and only fight when his R is down. |
Levels 1-3 are mine if I'm patient at first — at 1 we both poke for nothing, so just deny his Q last-hits and keep Skaarl healthy. The second I have W and E, I E in, fire the W shotgun shots, and re-E back to detonate the mark; that burst beats him before his W shield value ramps. Don't sit still next to him or his Q-slam lands the isolated-target bonus and his E pull sets up a free trade — dance in and out so his pull whiffs.
