−
* [[Spell vamp]] from {{ai|Soul Siphon|Morgana}} and magic damage from {{ai|Tormented Soil|Morgana}} allows {{ci|Morgana}} to stay in her lane for a long time.
  
−
* Use {{ai|Dark Binding|Morgana}} to check for enemies in the [[brush]]. The projectile stops moving and makes a distinctive sound when it hits something. While this does work, it is best to save {{ai|Dark Binding|Morgana}} unless you have maxed [[cooldown reduction]], as it is an essential ability for Morgana's combat and will leave you vulnerable if it is on cooldown.
  
−
* With enough [[ability power]], {{ai|Dark Binding|Morgana}} can deal a fair amount of damage as well as snaring the opponent. The projectile moves fairly slowly, though, so always lead your target at any distance longer than close range.
  
−
* {{ai|Dark Binding|Morgana}} is an exceptional zoning tool. If you're being chased, throw it at your enemies so you can get away. Even if you don't hit it will cause enemy players to waste time moving around it.
  
−
* {{ci|Morgana|Morgana's}} Damage output is centered around a simple combo, the snare from {{ai|Dark Binding|Morgana}} followed by {{ai|Tormented Soil|Morgana}}. {{ai|Soul Shackles|Morgana}} can be used with this combo either after the combo to finish the enemy off or initially to slow the enemy for better aiming the stun from {{ai|Dark Binding|Morgana}}. The magic resistance debuff from {{ai|Tormented Soil|Morgana}} makes {{ai|Soul Shackles|Morgana}} better used last.
  
−
* {{ai|Tormented Soil|Morgana}} used on an enemy champion and following up immediately with {{ai|Dark Binding|Morgana}} to snare them in place is an excellent [[harassing]] tool in the early game. Low health champions can even be killed outright since {{ai|Tormented Soil|Morgana}} lowers [[magic resistance]] and will hit for its maximum damage or more if they go below 0 magic resistance.
  
−
* When possible, try to use {{ai|Tormented Soil|Morgana}} first so that the enemy's [[magic resistance]] is reduced and takes more damage from {{ci|Morgana|Morgana's}} other spells.
  
−
* When using {{ai|Tormented Soil|Morgana}} to harass an enemy, place it somewhat behind them. This is because they will naturally run backwards and doing so will cause them to take at least 2-3 ticks of damage. Eventually they will catch on and run to the side or forwards, use this to your advantage when casting {{ai|Dark Binding|Morgana}}.
  
−
* At rank 3, {{ai|Tormented Soil|Morgana}} can initially kill a wave of caster minions, and possibly melee minions depending on [[ability power]] and time into the game. As the game progresses, minions receive additional health and magic resistance, so either level up the ability or build more AP.
  
−
* If an opposing champion '''must''' be killed in a team fight, use {{ai|Soul Shackles|Morgana}} and {{ai|Dark Binding|Morgana}} on that champion - if it doesn't kill them outright, it will at least deal a significant amount of damage and leave them stunned.
  
−
* {{ai|Soul Shackles|Morgana}} can be used to detect stealthed units and opponents in the bushes. The icon of {{ai|Soul Shackles|Morgana}} will become available only if a unit is near you. It can be used to see where they are the moment you use it, but you can't keep track of them if they are moving.
  
−
* {{si|Flash|Flashing}} into a group of enemies, hitting {{ai|Soul Shackles|Morgana}} and then using {{ii|Zhonya's Hourglass}} is excellent to initiate team fights without taking massive amounts of damage.
  
⚫
* Items that provide survivability make {{ci|Morgana}} extremely difficult to kill in conjunction with {{ai|Black Shield|Morgana}} and {{ai|Soul Shackles|Morgana}}.
  
−
* {{ai|Black Shield|Morgana}} is a vital ability to learn as it stops all forms of [[crowd control]] and also makes your target temporarily absorb spells and damage from some summoned pets (e.g. {{cai|H-28G Evolution Turret|Heimerdinger}}). Hence, shrewd use of {{ai|Black Shield|Morgana}} can determine the outcome of team fights.
  
−
** Casting {{ai|Black Shield|Morgana}} on champions with channeled spells (e.g. {{ci|Katarina}} and {{ci|Fiddlesticks}}) will help keep their abilities from being interrupted.
  
−
** If you play Morgana more offensively than supportive, it is best to go for higher levels of her other spells unless you are against a heavily Crowd Control orientated team.
  
−
* Remember that {{ai|Black Shield|Morgana}} will only block Magic Damage spells, it will not block Physical Damage spells such as {{ai|Ace in the Hole|Caitlyn}}, {{ai|Parrrley|Gangplank}}, {{ai|Sonic Wave|Lee Sin}}, or {{ai|Volley|Ashe}}.
  
−
**It will still block the crowd control effects from Physical Spells and on-hit items.

==Build usage==
  
−
*{{ci|Morgana}} needs to get close to her enemies with her {{ai|Soul Shackles|Morgana}} and to have greater sucess at landing {{ai|Dark Binding|Morgana}}. Because of this, it is useful to build her with some defensive items such as {{ii|Rod of Ages}}, {{ii|Abyssal Scepter}}, and/or {{ii|Zhonya's Hourglass}}. These items will allow her to survive a teamfight much longer, and still have good damage.
  
−
**Since {{ai|Soul Shackles|Morgana}} is not a channeled ability a player can use {{ii|Zhonya's Hourglass}} to have the spell continue while she is invulnerable. However, this makes it easier for enemies to leave the tether range.
  
−
*A good CDR build can also be devastating. Building a {{ii|Glacial Shroud}} will lower cooldowns and help with mana, and building a {{ii|Athene's Unholy Grail}} can help with mana regeneration and ability power.
  
−
*{{ii|Abyssal Scepter}}, {{ii|Banshee's Veil}} can be good items to provide magic resistance.
  
−
*A {{ii|Morello's Evil Tome}} or a {{ii|Deathfire Grasp}} grants {{ci|Morgana}} [[mana regeneration]] and [[cooldown reduction]] to help her spam her spells. The active from a {{ii|Deathfire Grasp}} can also increase Morgana's burst damage output after the {{ai|Dark Binding|Morgana}}, {{ai|Tormented Soil|Morgana}} combo.
  
−
*{{ii|Will of the Ancients}} and other [[spell vamp]] items will synergize with {{ai|Soul Siphon|Morgana}}.
  
−
*A {{ii|Mejai's Soulstealer}} is an excellent item for {{ci|Morgana}} early game due to its high AP and cooldown when fully stacked for a very low cost. Since {{ci|Morgana}} is excellent at assisting other champions in making kills, she can get a large number of stacks fairly easily. However, this method is not recommended for people who are inexperienced with {{ci|Morgana}}.
  
−
*{{ii|Rylai's Crystal Scepter}} is a good tanky AP item for {{ci|Morgana}}, since it provides a good deal of [[health]] and [[ability power]], which goes well with her tanky AP nature. However, the passive slow does not have the full effect for most of her abilities, so be aware of this. {{ii|Rod of Ages}} is the better choice between the two.

−
* Avoid standing above {{ai|Tormented Soil|Morgana}}'s AoE. The spell damage is small but the tick is very fast, making it a dangerous spell.

;Playing As {{ci|Morgana}}
  +
* Shrewd use of {{ai|Black Shield|Morgana}} can determine the outcome of teamfights.
  ⚫
* Items that provide survivability allow Morgana to become extremely difficult to kill in conjunction with {{ai|Black Shield|Morgana}} and {{ai|Soul Shackles|Morgana}}.
  +
* {{ai|Tormented Shadow|Morgana}} is an excellent farming tool if you're by yourself in a lane.
  +
* Save your {{ai|Black Shield|Morgana}} for protecting your adc/yourself from crowd control.
  +
* It's much easier to earn gold from {{ii|Spellthief's Edge}} with {{ai|Tormented Shadow|Morgana}}. It also provides a bit of poke so use it whenever you cannot hit {{ai|Dark Binding|Morgana}}.
  +
  +
;Playing Against {{ci|Morgana}}
  +
* {{ai|Tormented Shadow|Morgana}} deals tons of damage to units missing large amounts of health. When low on health, be wary of Morgana's attempts to trap you within its reach.
  +
* Morgana often needs to land {{ai|Dark Binding|Morgana}} to setup her other attacks. Use your minions as shields against {{ai|Dark Binding|Morgana}}.
  +
* Try to use your crowd control when you know Morgana's {{ai|Black Shield|Morgana}} is on cooldown.

* Early game, {{ai|Dark Binding|Morgana}} into {{ai|Tormented Shadow|Morgana}} may burn lots of health from your opponents. Be careful when harassing this way, as the former costs lots of mana, especially when maxed early on.
  +
* Single {{ai|Tormented Shadow|Morgana}} will deal tremendous total damage to minions and will cause your lane to push. However, since {{ai|Dark Binding|Morgana}} lasts pretty long and {{ai|Black Shield|Morgana}} protects from crowd-control, she is really hard to gank.
  +
* {{ai|Tormented Shadow|Morgana|Tormented Shadows}} might abuse your lane partner's farming. If willing to poke, use {{ai|Dark Binding|Morgana}} instead, as it costs less mana and will probably damage them more, without pushing the lane.
  +
* {{cai|Soul Shackles|Morgana}} might be one of the strongest ultimates, combining high damage with huge scaling and long stun. However it requires her to stick to your enemies, making her vulnerable to attacks. If possible, do not go in first.
  +
* Thanks to {{cis|Morgana}} scalings, she becomes really strong in late game, dealing 900 {{as|(+ 230% AP)}} with {{ai|Dark Binding|Morgana}} and {{ai|Soul Shackles|Morgana}}. She can also cast {{ai|Tormented Shadow|Morgana}} to further increase damage dealt.
  +
* {{ci|Morgana}} is great at zoning her enemies, forcing to either leave specified area, hide behind minions or just run away from you.
  +
  +
;Rune Usage
  +
* {{ri|Arcane Comet}} adds extra damage to {{ci|Morgana}}'s ability combos throughout the game. Hitting foes with {{ai|Dark Binding|Morgana}} or {{ai|Soul Shackles|Morgana}}'s initial slow will cause most comets to land, and even {{ai|Tormented Shadow|Morgana}} still helps by zoning opponents.
  +
* {{ri|Summon Aery}} is a reliable keystone that is more suited for a support-build {{ci|Morgana}}.
  +
  +
;Item Usage
  +
* {{ci|Morgana}} benefits from items that grant her ability power, thanks to great scalings on her abilities. Since she needs to get close to hit her enemies with ultimate, look for items that grant both damage and defense.
  +
** A mandatory item for her is {{ii|Zhonya's Hourglass}}. It grants ability power, armor to survive a few more attacks and cooldown reduction to cast more spells. But the most important is the {{tip|stasis}} active, which allows her to become invulnerable for the time holding the tethers. Note, that you cannot move when under {{tip|stasis}}, allowing your enemies to run away freely, possibly breaking the bonds. Use it only when needed.
  +
** Another great option is {{ii|Rod of Ages}}. It increases her health, allowing to survive longer, increases ability power and mana to overcome the great cost of {{ai|Tormented Shadow|Morgana}}. It also scales into late game, where she shines at most.
  +
** To grant lots of ability power, {{ii|Rabadon's Deathcap}} sounds like a great item. It grants lots of damage to her kit and increases her sniping potential on her {{ai|Dark Binding|Morgana}}. However, since she needs to be close to her enemies when {{ai|Soul Shackles|Morgana|Soul Shackling}}, it is not recommended to get this one as first item.
  +
** Somewhat effective might be {{ii|Archangel's Staff}}, thanks to huge base mana pool and it's combination with {{ii|Rod of Ages}}. It's shield will also make you harder to kill when in the middle of enemy team. Note, that she cannot stack it that fast, so it's not recommended when you are sure the game won't last long.
  +
** {{ii|Luden's Echo}} greatly improves the sniping capability with her {{ai|Dark Binding|Morgana}}, increasing it's damage to 400 {{as|(+ 100% AP)}} when charged.
  +
* Supporting {{ci|Morgana}} also benefits from ability power and defense, but since you won't kill that much, you might not find enough gold to afford such items.
  +
** For starting item, you might consider {{ii|Spellthief's Edge}} to upgrade it to {{ii|Frostfang}}. It will help you gain gold for new and better items and grants stats you need.
  +
** Since she doesn't shield that often and doesn't heal at all, {{ii|Athene's Unholy Grail}} and {{ii|Ardent Censer}} aren't that effective. {{ii|Zeke's Convergence}} however does the job.
  +
*** Then forcing into support items, the one dedicated for tanks are better on her, thanks to good base health and defense. Items like {{ii|Redemption}} and {{ii|Knight's Vow}} suit her very well.
  +
*** For cooldowns, {{ii|Frozen Heart}} is the way to go, if you aren't planning to damage your enemies. It will reduce your opponent's attack speed when {{ai|Soul Shackles|Morgana|Soul Shackling}}, grant lots of mana and cooldown reduction to increase the frequency of cast {{ai|Dark Binding|Morgana|Dark Bindings}}.
  +
*** Since removing crowd controls is always strong, {{ii|Mikael's Crucible}} is a valuable option to all supports and {{ci|Morgana}} is not an exception.

;Countering
  +

  +
* When {{ci|Morgana}} is off her {{ai|Dark Binding|Morgana}}, she becomes much easier to poke. Use this time to execute own skills or just hit her with few basic attacks.

** When out of {{ai|Dark Binding|Morgana}}, {{ci|Morgana}} is susceptible to poke, thanks to her low attack range and ineffectiveness of {{ai|Tormented Shadow|Morgana}} versus unrooted targets.

"Some things must remain buried."

Strategy is highly subjective and may become outdated without any notice. Because of this, the League of Legends Wiki has decided to retire strategy pages and would recommend using other platforms (such as YouTube) to find guides. For more information visit this thread.
