The Morrigan

How to play The Morrigan

The Morrigan is a ranged mage from the Celtic pantheon who deals magical damage. Top players play The Morrigan in the Mid lane.

In your kit, Deadly Aspects (cone stun damage) is your main crowd control. Dark Omen (projectile damage, marks) and Confusion (stealth, create decoy) add damage and pressure. Your ultimate is Changeling (become a different god), on a long cooldown (about 120s at rank 1), so save it for fights that matter. Your passive is Doomsayer: exploding, burning third attack.

Community guides level Dark Omen, Deadly Aspects and Dark Omen first. Max Dark Omen first, then Confusion, then Deadly Aspects.

Most of your damage comes from abilities, so fight from behind your front line and never be the closest god to the enemy. Look for the moment your crowd control can land, then follow up with the rest of your damage. You have no dash, so your positioning is your escape. In the mid lane, clear the wave quickly, then help the side lanes or the jungle.

Start with Archmage's Gem, then buy Spear of Desolation. Top players buy it in the first two or three slots. Your core is Book of Thoth and The World Stone, and you finish with Polynomicon, Rod of Tahuti and Obsidian Shard. A good relic is Aegis of Acceleration. If the enemy team heals a lot or you keep dying, open the full tool and enter the enemy gods for the exact swaps.

If you own Aspect of Mischief, it reworks Confusion (create decoy). It changes what to build, so turn on Aspect in the tool when you play it.

Top players win most often against Kuzenbo, Artio and Cabrakan, and struggle against Zeus, Sol or Morgan Le Fay. Against those, play safer and consider a defensive item earlier.
