Morgana

Soul Siphon (Passive)

This is how you sustain in lane. Using your Dark Binding or Tormented Shadow you can spell vamp on champions , minion and monsters. Try not to kill / last hit the minions like this but weaken them for the ADC. Watch your mana bar due to the high mana costs at low levels.

Dark Binding ( Q )

Fires a bolt of dark energy towards a target location, binding the first unit hit to the ground for 2 / 2.25 / 2.5 / 2.75 / 3 seconds and dealing 80 / 135 / 190 / 245 / 300 (+90% of ability power) magic damage.

• Always max this ability first for an extra 0.25 second snare on Dark Binding
  

• Main source of damage other than Soul Shackles
  

• Use this to spell vamp off minions
  

• Slow skill shot, you must predict where they are moving
  

  THIS IS A SNARE NOT A STUN. RANGED CHAMPIONS WILL BE ABLE TO FIGHT BACK

Tormented Soil ( W )

Pros & Cons of Morgana

Every champion in League of Legends always have their strengths and weaknesses

Masteries

Why I take certain Masteries?

Thunderlord's Decree

Morgana

• Wanderer - Increased movement speed for roaming. As a support you should go roam mid if you are ahead.
  
• Secret Stash - Will help for lane sustain early game.
  
• Merciless - I tend to like this over Meditation because of the synergies with Tormented Shadow.
  
• Bandit This is a must have on all supports, you need gold too!
  
• Intelligence Increase your max Cool Down Reduction by 5% while giving you an early 5% CDR. More CDR will equal more Dark Binding and Black Shield.
  
• Thunderlord's Decree I see others take Windspeaker's Blessing , which is honestly really bad. Black shield is on a cool down of 23 seconds as level 1 without any CDR. So you would only benefit every 23 seconds, while if you use Thunderlord's Decree you would have a greater efficiency.
  

• Unyielding Free 5% more Armor & Magic Resist ? Why not?
  
• Tough Skin I personally like taking this over Explorer because of minion damage. Trading damage between you and the enemy ADC will annoy them , miss cs and have lower HP than your ally ADC
  
  *NOTE* You can take Explorer instead for the roams
  
• Insight - "Reduces the cooldown of Summoner Spells by 15%"
  This will give you more Flash Dark Binding or Soul Shackles
  

Summoner Spells

Why take Exhaust on Morgana?

• Secures a kill or will blow an enemy flash
  
• Peels for all in assassins such as Zed
  
• Exhaust + Frost Queen's Claim + Soul Shackles = Slow Zone
  

Flash is a MUST on Morgana because it creates good kill potential with a Flash + Dark Binding. She has a base movement speed of 335 which makes her one of the slowest champions in the game, there is no escape with her if there is an incoming gank.

Ignite is an agressive summoner spell on supports. It gives pressure in lane trading by dealing true damage. I usually would take this spell vs tanks like Dr. Mundo. Support Ignite is different from mid lane Ignite. As a support you would ignite when the enemy is around 75% hp so you will not secure the kill but your ADC does, while in mid lane the ignite will slowly tick at their low hp which eventually lead to a kill.

HealYou can go heal on Morgana but i personally rather have Exhaust or Ignite. The heal will give you a boost of movement speed and healing but Heal does not stack with your ADC's Heal. I would take Flash + Exhaust or Ignite just because Exhaust has so many uses.

How to Play the Support Role

Support isn't all that easily. Although you can't carry in the games, you set up plays for the team for follow up. A support is usually down in the bot lane with the ADC, usually a support will have some sort of ability which can "support" the team, healing or crowd control. As a support you shouldn't be taking kills or cs if nessasarry, would you benfit more with the gold or will the ADC will? Since you won't be taking cs you would start with a gold income item ; Ancient Coin , spell thief's edge or Relic Shield
