Strenghts | Weaknesses

Strenghts:

  • Good wave clear.
  • Good early pressure.
  • Insane lategame.
  • 1-shotting capability without ultimate.
  • Includes some strong CC.
  • Mobility (Questionable).
  • She can be played in literally all roles.
  • Good poke.
  • Good zoning ( Deadly Aspects).
  • Abuse of attack cancelling for high levels of play.

Weaknesses:
  • No CC immune ultimate.
  • Her only mobility tool is easy to cancel.
  • Very close range (Kinda like a magical assassin)
  • Her most damaging ability has a charge up
  • Hard to learn and master


+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

The Morrigan: Combos

Basic combo, maximum damage:

Combo difficulty: Medium-hard

This combo is pretty hard to execute. Morrigan usually makes better use of stunning first, then firing auto attack once, and then shooting Dark Omen, but that would do less damage. Using this combo correctly will reward you with more damage dealt, which happens because of her Dark Omen's mark (This ability will do 100% aditional damage).

Gank!

Combo difficulty: Medium-easy
CAUTION: Deadly Aspects is a really loud ability. When charging up, it will be heard from a determinated distance. I reccomend activating this before arriving to a lane or just activate it far away from your enemy if you're trying to execute this combo in a lane. Be careful though, because Confusion has a short duration!


This combo is perfect to gank duo lane, solo lane or even mid lane. The ability to stealth yourself helps you to hit your Deadly Aspects much easier (The enemy won't expect you to be around, so he won't juke).

Double surprise:

Combo difficulty: Hard

This combo is perfect and includes almost Morrigan's full kit. This combo is really hard to archieve. You will have to stealth from far away, activate Deadly Aspects and when arriving to lane, have your target already chosen (In your mind, not in the ultimate).


+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

Warding



GREEN: Stands for basic warding. You will need to ward these zones for an efficient and safe laning phase (And don't get flammed by angry teammates).

YELLOW: Applies for optional / situational / agressive warding. These wards can or cannot be placed. They definitely are useful, but they're not 100% needed.

RED: Stands for really agressive and risky warding. These warding options are not needed, but if the enemy team is being extremely agressive or you're behind, you should be warding these places.


+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++


Tricks

CHANGELING:
Tip 1: Relax.
Not being totally prepared when using this ability can make you feel awkward and you might commit a misplay (throw all your abilities, die for being extremely agressive or just transform into a god accidentally). My tip for this is just chill. Your ultimate ability might go on cooldown if you use it wrong, but its okay! it will regenerate in time. You don't have to go all in just because you choosed the wrong god, or you ulted too late and the enemy ran away. Let yourself regenerate as The Morrigan, we're all humans!

Tip 2: Pre-select a target.

Step by step:

Step 1: Press 4. Pick a target before you're going to use your ultimate. Suppose you're picking Neith. You stand your click above her, and you press RIGHT CLICK.

You will see that the character you picked ( Neith in this case) will appear into your small passive mark. That's it! the next time you press 4, Neith will pop up, which means you won't have to press 4, find her face and press her. It will instantly transform!

CAUTION: I recommend practicing this tip in Jungle Practice mode. It's harder than it looks like it is, and can make you accidentally transform into the god, and lose your ultimate.

Im gonna be honest, I really don't know about some of the builds, especially the Warlock's Staff one (this item is just too slow to stack and shouldn't really be considered on most mid laners in most situations). The Bancroft's one doesen't even have Poly in it, and im not sure why you're building Bancroft's on Morrigan who gets minimal benefit from the lifesteal on that item.

Also Tahuti rush is just pointless on Morrigan. Like the only mages that benefit from an early Tahuti are Zeus, and maybe Zhong and Nu Wa (ult). Haven't seen any high level or pro players ever rush Tahuti on her either.

FootFetish (4) | July 19, 2019 6:36am
Warlock's Staff it's not good this season, its just like for someone that knows the item and takes good use of it. I don't like or use it.

Rod of Tahuti it's an insane boost to Morrigan's damage, she might not have the best or the worst use of the passive, but the +30 MP5 will allow her to never return to base.
(It is still an option, if you don't like those builds you can always use others)

GaseousClay (1) | August 8, 2019 11:28pm
You're not paying so much for MP5 though. You get it for bonus DMG when the get <50% HP. Early game it wont help since you can't burst and when you ULT its gone.

Rush CPendant instead... cheper, great CDR and enough MP5. That 20% and passive might save you or help get kills. HUGE boost to her ULT which is at 160s Lvl1

SmiteFire & Smite

Smite is an online battleground between mythical gods. Players choose from a selection of gods, join session-based arena combat and use custom powers and team tactics against other players and minions. Smite is inspired by Defense of the Ancients (DotA) but instead of being above the action, the third-person camera brings you right into the combat. And, instead of clicking a map, you use WASD to move, dodge, and fight your way through the detailed graphics of SMITE's battlegrounds.
