What makes Morgana dangerous
Morgana lands a very long root with her Q (Dark Binding), zones with a damage pool (W), and her Black Shield (E) blocks all magic damage and CC on an ally — negating enemy engage. Her ultimate roots everyone around her for a teamfight lockdown. She's all about her binding and shield.
How to play against Morgana
- 1Dodge her Q binding — it's a slow skillshot but roots you for ages, setting up her whole combo. Stand behind minions.
- 2Her E (Black Shield) blocks your CC and magic — bait it out before you commit hard CC or magic burst on that target.
- 3Don't stand in her W pool — it's high sustained damage that zones. Step out of it in trades and fights.
- 4Respect her ultimate range — it roots everyone near her. Spread out and don't clump around her when it's up.
Weaknesses to exploit
- ✓Binding is a slow, dodgeable skillshot.
- ✓Immobile with no escape — easy to dive.
- ✓Black Shield is on a cooldown you can bait.
- ✓Squishy; hard CC and dives punish her once Q/E are down.
Abilities & how to counter them
What each of Morgana's abilities does — and how to play around it.
P
SeelenabzugMorgana entzieht ihren Gegnern Geisteskraft und heilt sich, während sie Champions, großen Vasallen und mittleren sowie größeren Dschungelmonstern Schaden zufügt.
Q
Dunkle BindungMorgana fesselt einen Gegner mit dunkler Magie an Ort und Stelle und zwingt ihn dazu, sein verursachtes Leid am eigenen Körper zu spüren. Dabei fügt sie ihm magischen Schaden zu.
Strong: an extremely long root that sets up her whole combo. Weak: a slow skillshot — stand behind minions and dodge it; no bind, no combo.
W
Gepeinigter SchattenMorgana wirft einen verfluchten Schatten über ein Gebiet und verursacht Schaden an allen Gegnern, die es wagen, sich in ihrem dunklen Kreis aufzuhalten. Sie erleiden magischen Schaden über Zeit, der immer höher ausfällt, je weniger Leben sie haben.
E
Schwarzer SchildMorgana hüllt einen Verbündeten in einen Schutzschild aus Sternenfeuer, der magischen Schaden und kampfunfähig machende Effekte absorbiert, bis er durchbrochen wird.
Strong: Black Shield blocks all magic damage and CC on an ally, negating your engage. Weak: bait it out before you commit hard CC or magic burst.
R
SeelenfesselMorgana entfesselt ihre vollständige himmlische Macht, während sie ihre gebundenen Flügel befreit und in der Luft schwebt. Sie wirft Ketten aus dunklem Schmerz auf nahe gegnerische Champions und erhält Lauftempo. Die Ketten verlangsamen ihr Ziel und fügen anfänglichen Schaden zu. Kurze Zeit später betäuben sie alle, die sich nicht von ihnen befreien können.
Strong: roots everyone around her for a teamfight lockdown. Weak: spread out and don't clump near her when it's up.
Itemization
Morgana is AP with a long root and an anti-magic/CC shield. Dodge her Q, bait her Black Shield before committing CC, avoid her W pool, and magic resist blunts her burst. Dive her when her binding is down.
