Xerath vs Morgana

Confidence mediumUpdated Jun 9, 2026

Overview

Use (Q) and (W) to poke and create lane space, enabling your ADC's safe positioning and pressure.
Control brush to deny (Q) root angles and protect your ADC from pick setups.
Track (E) shield cooldown to time your (E) stun for peel and follow-up windows.

Trading pattern

Use (W) slow to land (Q) poke, forcing Morgana's ADC behind minions and reducing their access.
Hold (E) to peel your ADC from (Q) root or enemy engage, avoiding wasted cooldown.
Deny Morgana brush control to reduce her (Q) threat and enable safer ADC follow-up.

Danger windows

(Q) root plus ADC follow-up creates high threat windows; respect brush angles.
(E) can block your (E) stun; bait it before committing to engage.
Level 6 (R) all-in can punish overextensions; avoid fights without confirmed ADC backup.

Early game

Win the level 2 race by syncing (E) stun with your ADC's engage or poke for lane priority.
Maintain lane priority to safely poke and prevent Morgana from hiding in brush for (Q).
Use wave pressure to create roam windows after crashing, ensuring ADC safety before leaving.

Power spikes

Level 2 unlocks your (E) stun and (Q) poke; use (E) to disrupt Morgana's engage attempts.
First completed mana/AP item boosts poke damage, increasing pressure and ADC access denial.
Level 6 (R) grants long-range follow-up for picks or defensive resets with ADC synergy.

Win conditions

Convert poke pressure into denied enemy ADC positioning and safer dragon vision control.
Roam post wave crash with ADC safe to extend map pressure and secure mid or river vision.
Use (R) with ADC follow-up for picks or disengage to set favorable teamfight entry and objective setups.
