Do something about Morgana Shield

RTX Warnoise·1/18/2015, 2:34:30 PM·2 votes·840 views

So whenever there is a Morgana on the team its guaranteed they will win unless they are 5 racoons playing.

Her Q is so easy to land yet so fucking devastating with its range and huge hitbox AND dmg late game.

She makes bot lane a nightmare for the enemy team especially with her shield that doesn't only negate cc effects but damage as well.

Her ulti is so easy to use, just pop shield on yourself, let the enemy unleash all their skills on you, if you survive, you didn't only soak up as much dmg as a full stack dmg thanks to the shield, but you also stunned the enemy and left the unstunned ones on cdr. In other words, gg.

Morgana must be tweaked because she is cancer incarnate at this rate unless we pick 5 men ad casters.

Pick one and learn it as your primary spell juking skill. This is a basic and important part of the game. It's like in boxing, you need to have a plan and the skills to get around the enemies Jab if you ever want to close in and do any real damage. It's a basic primary skill like learning how to buy items, the second you face someone who knows how and you don't you're gonna get wrecked. You see it in most kinds of pvp fighting games, the player who is better at spacing and controlling the neutral fight gets to decide the pace of battle, and if they are competent enough to do that they are probably good enough to only let a fight happen if the odds are stacked in their favor.

If you play StreetFighter, you need to learn how to get past fireballs if you ever want to land a hit on a character who has them.

If you play SmashBros, you need to learn how to read and follow the opponents 'tech' (shield, roll, jump, stand up, wake up attack, etc.) if you want to keep up offensive momentum.

If you play LoL, you need to learn how to engage on an enemy who has strong defensive options and how to evade their offensive options if you want to win skirmishes or handle ganks well.

In the case of Morg, be aware that the black shield is single target and long cooldown, doesn't work on physical damage, and can be broken by magic damage. Options for dealing with the shield include:

  1. It is single target so, fake her out so that she shields her carry (or whoever) and then attack morgana or a different important target.

  2. Pretend to go in to bait the shield then wait a couple seconds for it to drop and either go in for real or take advantage of the enemy backing off to wail for the cooldown.

  3. Bring a champ that has a lot of powerful and fast physical damage to kill the shielded target right through the shield (graves for example).

  4. Prevent morgana from casting the shield on her ally by going in on her and then switching targets, or by cc'ing her (graves can toss a smoke can on her so she can't see which makes it hard for her to shield someone)

  5. Bring a champion who has strong enough and spammable enough magical poke to break the shield fast without being down a spell in the ensuing fight (Nidalee is good for this)

  6. etc.

And so on, you go ahead and break down every option that someone has and have a plan to get around it.

She was nerfed like 4 patches in a row a little while ago.

She's fine babe.

A slow skillshot, a puddle that you can move out of in two steps, a non-damaging spell shield that can be popped with a single magic damage ability, and an Ult that forces her to walk into the middle of the enemy team is cancer incarnate.

Morg is fine. The only thing that she needs is for her Q hitbox to actually match. That is all.
