What are some tips for the Mordekaiser vs. Aatrox matchup?

Playing safer until Oblivion Orb, maybe Rylai's too, is often smart. After those items, look to fight Aatrox more. He's very immobile, so he can line up his Q hits easily. When he uses Q without E, he can't change directions, meaning you can also line up your Q or E. You can fight Aatrox well at 6. Generally, he'll Q+E forward to hit you, then chain with W. Wait for his second Q, cast your E pull for a guaranteed hit, then R him. His W gets removed, and you can chase for a kill, especially with Ignite. He might R to distance himself. Stay on him and beat him down in melee. Rylai's is a HUGE powerspike. Once you get it, he can't get away unless he E's over a wall. Dodging his Qs is KEY to winning the 1v1. Rylai's makes it way easier with the slow plus Approach Velocity speed. Later, you can still win, but Maw makes it tougher with the shield. Bloodletter's can be a second or third item if he builds Maw. If he buys a lot of health like Sundered Sky into Spear of Shojin, Liandry's burn helps a lot. Ideally, R him only AFTER he uses his R to steal maximum AD value. Even with his R active, Rylai's slow plus Approach speed lets you chase. Serpent's Fang is the only real way he wins the 1v1 hyper late.

What are some tips for the Mordekaiser vs. Jax matchup?

This lane is super volatile, swinging fast. Don't Q unless it's a sure hit. If he sees you Q the wave, he'll jump and trade hard. W blocks damage, but Q'ing him for a hard win is better. If he ever jumps melee after 6 and greed-E's, just R him and fight. Without E, he can't stun or kite. You don't need to do it if you are both full health, but at ~50% HP, you can chase and kill. Use E to peel him if W is down to minimize damage. He wins lane by chunking you with lower CDs, constantly comboing faster, especially Q and W. Space correctly and don't fight with W down, or you'll die, especially with Ignite. Later, you can 1v1 him; just force his E early. R in melee and fight. Until super late, he won't get a second E, and if he does, it's for escape, not fighting. Mordekaiser can 1v1 Jax even full build if played right. Side lane or teamfight is fine. Side lane is often better, as you can chunk him under his turret, and a full W eats almost all his retaliation damage if he jumps in.

What are some tips for the Mordekaiser vs. Shen matchup?

Being as impactful as Shen on the map is tough. His R lets him impact anything from Lvl 6. ALWAYS PING your team to respect his R and keep him HARD PUSHED so he can't R without losing plates/farm. If he has Teleport instead of Ignite, his lane pressure is lower, and you can freeze for a solo kill with R up. Once you get Rylai's, with R up and wave on your side, you can R him from max range for a kill or force his Flash. You can cancel his R, but don't always; see if it's needed or if you can just take plates/push. Later, he won't match you side, so force him to.

Jax	Very Hard	262	46%	-235	-953	This lane is super volatile, swinging fast. Don't Q unless it's a sure hit. If he sees you Q the wave, he'll jump and trade hard.

Shen	Easy	260	49%	+653	+1353	Being as impactful as Shen on the map is tough. His R lets him impact anything from Lvl 6.

Sett	Even	257	51%	-35	-172	Respect his Lvl 1, it's strong; he'll beat you. Never fight him up close; use max range Qs to get him lower. He might Q charge and E stun.

Garen	Even	252	48%	+306	-582	Easy matchup. Q poke him and try to take extended trades. You want to 100-0 him in your ult. Rylai's Crystal Scepter really shuts him down if he is not running phase rush.

Darius	Very Hard	242	49%	-183	-590	Don't let him get brush control Lvl 1. Get to the middle brush and wait. As he enters, throw a Q to chunk him.

Sion	Even	237	48%	-9	-228	Tank Sion is easily melted by your kit. AD Sion can be tricky, as his charged Q can do massive damage. His ultimate makes him immune to your pull while he is charging. Once you get close to him, he gets destroyed.

KSante	Not Favored	223	44%	-247	+116	His W and ultimate can cancel your ultimate. Your best window to land an ult is to cast it just as his W channel is about to end, as he is not unstoppable during the forward charge. In lane, your plan is to constantly poke him with max-range Qs to drain his health and mana.
