Game plan for Morgana

Early game

Space around your main skill’s cooldown. Use a successful control or slow to make the next spell easier, rather than spending the whole rotation into a miss.

Team fights

Keep enough distance to cast again. Aim area spells where opponents must move around an objective and use control to protect your casting position.

Mistake to avoid

Using your only defensive control on poke before an enemy engages.

Learn Morgana abilities and prepare your first games. Find builds for each supported role.

Learn the champion’s kit

In the practice tool, cast each ability separately and check its range, targeting and effect. Read the passive before practising a sequence: it can change how attacks and spells work together.

P · Soul Siphon

Morgana drains spirit from her enemies, healing as she deals damage to champions, large minions, and medium and larger jungler monsters.

Q · Dark Binding

Morgana binds an enemy in place with dark magic, forcing them to feel the pain they've caused and dealing magic damage.

Rank-one cooldown : 10 seconds

W · Tormented Shadow

Morgana casts a cursed shadow on an area, damaging enemies who dare stand in her dark circle. They receive magic damage over time, which increases the lower health they are.

Rank-one cooldown : 12 seconds

E · Black Shield

Morgana anoints an ally with a protective barrier of starfire, which absorbs magical damage and disabling effects until it is broken.

Rank-one cooldown : 26 seconds

R · Soul Shackles

Morgana unleashes the full force of her Celestial power as she unbinds her wings and hovers above the ground. She lashes chains of dark pain onto nearby enemy champions, gaining Move Speed. The chains slow and deal initial damage and, after a delay, stun those who are unable to break them.

Rank-one cooldown : 120 seconds

Abilities: official game data 16.20.1. Descriptions may change with balance updates.

Practice before ranked

First test each spell against a target dummy. Identify the skill you need to escape or survive before spending it offensively. Check alternate forms or empowered casts in the game too. Practise a sequence slowly, then repeat it while moving.

Before you engage

Check the enemy’s control and escape spells, your health and resources, ally position and retreat path. An available ultimate is not by itself a reason to commit.

Review your first games

Review one missed spell, one unnecessary death and one lost objective. Practise the specific mistake before adding complex sequences. Start with the role you intend to play.

Choose your role and build

Compare the build, rune page, skill priority and matchups for your role. Later purchases depend on the enemy team.
