Statistical Matchup Analysis

Morgana dominates the meta (14th most popular, 5.2% pick rate) and regularly clashes with Neeko (3.0% pick rate). Understanding this common matchup forms the foundation of consistent gameplay for one of support's current powerhouses. Surprising upset: Despite Morgana's higher tier rating, Neeko wins 51.1% of encounters. This suggests Neeko's kit specifically counters Morgana's playstyle, overriding general meta strength - approach this matchup with extra caution. Every edge matters: In this tough matchup, the proven Arcane Comet + Manaflow Band combination (67.1% win rate) plus optimal itemization Liandry's Torment, Zhonya's Hourglass, Morellonomicon, and Ionian Boots of Lucidity boosts your chances from 48.9% to 70%+ - potentially game-changing.

Vision advantage: Despite losing the direct matchup, Morgana's superior warding (0.93 wards/min, 16th among supports) can swing team fights and objectives in your favor. Outclassed across the board: Neeko leads in both matchup win rate (51.1%) and damage (564 vs 479/min). Morgana must seek alternative win conditions through macro play and team coordination. Strong individual performance: Morgana maintains better KDA (2.60, 20th place vs 42nd for Neeko), but loses the matchup overall. High KDA without wins suggests difficulty translating individual advantages into victory conditions.

How to Beat Neeko as Morgana (Support)

Despite the slight difference in effectiveness, in the Morgana versus Neeko matchup as support, neither champion has an overwhelming advantage. The winner is determined by player skill and understanding the intricacies of the confrontation. Studying this guide will improve your chances of success.

The magic damage that Morgana deals remains relevant in the late game. Look for opportunities to initiate or counter-initiate. Meanwhile, Neeko deals primarily magic damage (87.59%), additional magic resistance may be required.

An important advantage of Morgana is superior vision control (ranked 16th among supports) (versus 36th for Neeko), which provides better map control and safety for the team in important map areas. Meanwhile, their lower KDA (2.2 versus 2.6) suggests they are less effective in team fights.

Key aspects of the Morgana Support versus Neeko Support matchup

In this difficult confrontation, it is critically important for the Morgana player to avoid attempts to force trades and all-ins with the Neeko player, as the matchup requires a patient and calculated approach. Extended trades without clear tactical advantage often lead to unfavorable consequences, and ignoring opportunities to receive team support can be a fatal mistake for game progression.

Morgana tips:

  • Shrewd use of Black Shield can determine the outcome of team fights.
  • Items that provide survivability allow Morgana to become extremely difficult to kill in conjunction with Black Shield and Soul Shackles.
  • Tormented Shadow is an excellent farming tool if you're by yourself in a lane.

Playing Against Neeko

  • Standing behind minions against Neeko is very dangerous as Tangle-Barbs become stronger.
  • Pop Blossom's warning visuals are invisible if Neeko is disguised.
