Should You Main Morgana? Tier F
Morgana is tier F for maining. Only 0 of its mains are Challenger or Grandmaster across the three major regions, against 799,584 games played worldwide.
Reviewed for League of Legends patch 16.15.
Verdict. Nobody has taken Morgana above Master as a main in Korea, Europe West or North America this season, across 34 tracked mains.
The numbers
Score 0.00 high elo mains per 100,000 games played, ban-adjusted · 0 Challenger · 0 Grandmaster · 34 tracked mains in KR, EUW and NA · 799,584 games played worldwide · 8.68% pick rate · 20.79% ban rate
Ban rate warning. Morgana is banned in 20.79% of games. Even where the density number is strong, you will not get to play it in roughly one game in 5.
Small sample. Only 34 tracked mains in the three major regions, so treat this position as indicative rather than settled.
What this means
From the video: Vambient's breakdown, lightly cleaned from speech
Miss Fortune, zero challengers. Three GM players and Mordekaiser zero challengers, Morgana, zero challengers. So zero GMs on Morgana as well.
So these are very high pickb champions for Mordekaiser, Morgana, and Miss Fortune. So you can see these champions a lot, but essentially they all kind of suffer from the same fate, which is that even though there's a lot of players playing them, none of those players end up reaching the highest of MMRs for whatever reason. It's not, you know, it can be because they're weak right now.
It can be because you know that maybe it's too difficult for the champion in this meta to reach higher wars. Maybe but it is not for lack of trying. It is just because you know they're something is going on with champion at higher marks that don't allow them to climb past the certain point.
So for Morgana, it's going to be probably because I mean it's a fairly popular champion, but doesn't provide too much in terms of utility later on in the game. So she might do well early game, but she might not do well later on in the game. Mordekaiser is countered and definitely gets outskilled by QSS and also just normal scaling.
And yeah, similar situation with Milio. Not to say that these champions can't work, they can definitely work. But if you were to try to main challenger might not work out the best for you right now.
How this was measured
Two numbers, one division. First, how many players are currently in Challenger or Grandmaster maining this champion in Korea, Europe West and North America, from onetricks.gg. Second, how many ranked games the entire playerbase plays of this champion worldwide across every rank, from op.gg. The result is high elo mains per 100,000 games played, then reduced by the champion's ban rate, because a champion you cannot pick is a champion you cannot main.
This is not a win rate list and it is not a patch strength list. It measures availability-adjusted high-elo main density: how much Challenger and Grandmaster main representation a champion has relative to how often it is played. It is not the probability that maining this champion will get you to high elo. The score counts Challenger and Grandmaster mains only, drawn from a tracked pool that starts at Master; it does not include the Chinese server, and it counts accounts rather than people, so one dedicated player with several high elo accounts shows up more than once. Patch 16.15. The full plain English explanation, including everything this list cannot tell you, is on the main list page.
Popularity is not the signal. What matters here is how densely high elo mains appear relative to how often the champion is played.
