Statistical Matchup Analysis

Morgana dominates the meta (13th most popular, 5.6% pick rate) and regularly clashes with Zyra (3.3% 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, Zyra wins 52.1% of encounters. This suggests Zyra'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 Dark Harvest + Cheap Shot combination (53.7% win rate) plus optimal itemization Liandry's Torment, Zhonya's Hourglass, Imperial Mandate, and Ionian Boots of Lucidity boosts your chances from 47.9% to 70%+ - potentially game-changing.

Vision advantage: Despite losing the direct matchup, Morgana's superior warding (1.01 wards/min, 2nd among supports) can swing team fights and objectives in your favor. Outclassed across the board: Zyra leads in both matchup win rate (52.1%) and damage (776 vs 539/min). Morgana must seek alternative win conditions through macro play and team coordination. Strong individual performance: Morgana maintains better KDA (2.70, 21st place vs 42nd for Zyra), but loses the matchup overall. High KDA without wins suggests difficulty translating individual advantages into victory conditions.

How to Beat Zyra as Morgana (Support)

Difficult matchup requiring deep understanding of game mechanics and flawless execution. Patience and proper macro play are the keys to victory in this confrontation.

The magic damage that Morgana deals remains relevant in the late game. Look for opportunities to initiate or counter-initiate. Meanwhile, Zyra deals primarily magic damage (88.22%), additional magic resistance may be required.

An important advantage of Morgana is superior vision control (ranked 2nd among supports) (versus 10th for Zyra), which provides better map control and safety for the team in important map areas. Meanwhile, their lower KDA (2.2 versus 2.7) suggests they are less effective in team fights.

Key aspects of the Morgana Support versus Zyra 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 Zyra 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 Zyra

  • Zyra's seeds can be destroyed by stepping on them. If she tries to grow them as you do, dodge back at the last moment.
  • Moving closer to Zyra can be a smart move if she places plants too far away from herself.
  • Plants take fixed damage from attacks and effects, similar to wards. They also expire quickly on their own.
  • Moving the fight to a different area will deprive Zyra of accumulated seeds.
  • Seeds placed by Zyra's W are larger, a different color, and grant a small amount of vision to her team.
