  1. First buy

    1. Sapphire Crystal
    2. Health Potion
    3. Mana Potion

    Morgana's support build goes Catalyst first, so 400 gold of Sapphire Crystal at level one is already on that path.

    Alternative start:
    1. Doran's Ring
    2. Health Potion, 2 of them

    Black Shield costs 50 at every rank, so what Morgana needs from 400 gold is regen, not a bigger pool.

    Alternative start:
    1. Boots of Speed
    2. Health Potion, 4 of them

  2. Early

    • Catalyst the Protector

    On support income Catalyst takes real saving, and every minute it waits is a Rod of Ages stack arriving later.

  3. Core

    • Rod of Ages
    • Sorcerer's Shoes
    • Zhonya's Hourglass

  4. Late

    • Rabadon's Deathcap

Compared with

Current League

Classic

Soul Siphon

Morgana has Spell Vamp, healing herself whenever she deals damage with her spells.

Current League

Soul Siphon

Morgana drains spirit from her enemies, healing as she deals damage to champions, large minions, and medium and larger jungler monsters.

Coming from current LeagueW is an MR-shred setup tool for R, not an execute-scaling zone: standing in it does not get disproportionately punishing as health drops, so correct sequencing is W first, then burst.
Remembering Morgana in 2013Attack range is 425, not the 450 she later received, and base armor moved from 18.8 to 22.8 pre-launch.
