Morgana Support performs best with a build featuring Zaz'Zak's Realmspike, Ionian Boots of Lucidity, Liandry's Torment, Zhonya's Hourglass, and Rylai's Crystal Scepter. The most effective rune setup for Morgana Support includes Arcane Comet, Manaflow Band, Transcendence, and Scorch in the primary tree, paired with Cheap Shot and Ultimate Hunter in the secondary tree.
Morgana excels at setting up picks around objectives with her Q. Place vision in key areas and wait for an immobile enemy to walk into range before engaging. To maximize your chances of landing Q, try to use it after the enemy has already used their dash or escape ability. If they are holding onto it, walk forward and attempt to bait it out. Against champions with strong level 1 pressure like Alistar, Blitzcrank, Leona, or Nautilus, start with E instead of Q or W for added safety.
For the most common Morgana Support build, take Flash and Ignite as your Summoner Spells. Use Arcane Comet as your keystone, with Manaflow Band, Transcendence, and Scorch in the primary tree, and Cheap Shot with Ultimate Hunter in the secondary tree. For rune shards, choose Adaptive Force in offense, Adaptive Force in flex, and Health Scaling in defense, depending on the matchup. Start with Zaz'Zak's Realmspike, followed by Ionian Boots of Lucidity and Liandry's Torment. Finish the build with Zhonya's Hourglass, Rylai's Crystal Scepter, and Horizon Focus. Max abilities in the order of Q - W - E.
Another option for Morgana Support is to take Flash and Ignite as your Summoner Spells. Use Glacial Augment as your keystone, with Cash Back, Biscuit Delivery, and Cosmic Insight in the primary tree, and Manaflow Band with Transcendence in the secondary tree. Rune shards should include Adaptive Force, Adaptive Force, and Health Scaling. Start with Zaz'Zak's Realmspike, followed by Ionian Boots of Lucidity and Liandry's Torment. Complete the build with Zhonya's Hourglass, Rylai's Crystal Scepter, and Imperial Mandate. Max abilities in the order of Q - W - E.
If you want to experiment with an off-meta Morgana Support build, take Flash and Ignite as your Summoner Spells. Use Dark Harvest, Cheap Shot, Grisly Mementos, and Treasure Hunter in the primary rune tree, with Magical Footwear and Cosmic Insight in the secondary tree. Rune shards should be Adaptive Force, Adaptive Force, and Health Scaling. Start with Zaz'Zak's Realmspike, followed by Sorcerer's Shoes and Blackfire Torch. Finish the build with Zhonya's Hourglass, Liandry's Torment, and Void Staff. Max abilities in the order of Q - W - E.
Depending on your matchup, enemy composition, and overall game state, you may need to adjust your build and rune choices. Consider selecting Armor or Magic Resist rune shards based on the type of damage you will be facing in lane. Be flexible with your itemization to ensure you can provide the most impact for your team.
