Why does Morgana's snare still hit 3 seconds? And a minimum of 2...

Seenan·Feb 12, 2016·9 votes·3,113 views

It's a long range, silly hitbox nuke that also snares for 2-3 seconds...And is nearly impossible to miss if you FQC/ult them. Fiddle's fear got reduced and it didn't even do damage, Rammus' taunt got reduced cause admittedly it was strong as hell with his kit...But at least he had to take damage to taunt them. A Morg, similar to a Blitz can snare basically anyone and then their team will most likely just delete that snared person. She can miss 20 times, but that one snare that hits ends everything because there's no way you're getting away if she's with someone or you get chain cc'd.

QSS it you say? She'll have enough mana for 20 more strong-ass roots late game when your QSS is on cd.

Because it's her thing. Morg without a 3 second snare isn't Morg.

As long as she has that busted ass hitbox for her ult, they could reduce her q to 1.5 sec and she'll still be Morg.

Her ult doesn't have a hitbox.

Yes it does, her hit box is a based circumference out to 1050 units in every direction. It also updates targeting every .5 seconds, which is the source of the problem as you can still be stunned even if you escaped the area. Champions who escape need to immediately sent a cut-off signal to her Ult to cancel an effect they are no longer subject to.

All aoes and abilities that are "within range" have hitboxes.

Her ultimate applies to everyone in range of it.

It doesn't even have a hitbox.

In other words all of Morgana's power is shoved into her Q. Without her Q being ridiculously strong then she would be a terrible champion without question.

Likely so she can do damage with her w.

Yes its stupid but it is the most likely reason

Riot refuse to balance her as a support because shes still thought off as a midlaner aswell. Just look at the base damage and scalings on jer abilities

Morg main here, and really the only people that think it's op are people that can't play against her. It's a REALLY slow moving super LONG range snare. If you get hit by it at max range, you pretty much deserve it. Stay behind minions, don't over extend, don't play super aggressive against her. I can tell you from lots of personal experience that any of these three things really make using Morg really irritating.
Stay at max range from her if you can, that way if she does try to snare you - you have a really long time to get out of the way. If you get all up close and personal so that you can't dodge her Q, well that's your fault too.
Riot shouldn't be expected to nerf something just because people don't want to have to pay attention or change their play style. Watch a pro game with morganna in it, and watch how differently the other team will play.

You guys all know morgana is balanced as a mid laner, right? thats why she has CC immunity on a 10 second cooldown.

It's long af cause she's from an era where most cc was long af. Hers hasn't been touched because frankly she needs it as is to be relevant. A medium tier kit reworked could clean her up but a lot of people love her as is.

because its bullshit thats why. its one of the eaiser skillshits to land in the game as it is linear. and the hitbox on her is as fat as tahm kench

MannysmokerFeb 12, 20161 votes

She literally can remove one person for doing anything for 5 seconds how is that even balanced, I'm waitng for the day they nerf her to the ground.....

It's 3 seconds for a few reasons

1-it's single target skill shot 2-it's blocked by the first target it hits, including minions 3-it's her only form of CC outside of her ult and she is a utility Mage 4- her only other form of CC requires her to stay near the enemy as a squishy Mage and it's her ult (again she is a utility Mage) 5- it's slow moving and offer a plenty of reaction time from father ranges 6- it holds a lot of her kits power, by this I mean her Q is what makes W even remotely reliable, it's what makes her able to almost garentee a target gets stunned by R 7- tenacity exists, it's usually a good idea to get tenacity vs a team with a Morgana if you are going to be the front line, or if you are the back line but don't feel you can rely on your front line
