User blog comment:Hidden Sniper/Morgana, and a random rant./@comment-5946916-20131030163410

Morgana has been untouched since S2 when she had a huge pick/ban rate (Like Kassadin's 88.18% ban rate lately, also Morgana got some tormented soil changes along with a buff to her AA range/responsiveness last night FYI)

She simply was forgotten about. And like most AP mids, she's found a nice spot in the bottom lane as a support; as her Black Shield is Leona/Thresh/Blitz's worst nightmare and only a focus on destroying the shield or high innate magic damage can get rid of it quick enough to apply CC on that engage. Her passive is great for sustain and you really only need a single HP pot incase shit goes down. Otherwise you just take Mana pots to harass with your skills.

(Also, I'm going to pass along a forbidden technique to other Morgana players who have yet to discover/try this... Morgana jungle [Though I will admit it isn't exactly the "best" and you can always argue "Well, why not J4, Xin, Lee, etc", Morg jungle is just fun to me IMHO and if your team can cut off vision, ganks go off pretty well especially against hard CC/disengage like Leona or Janna])
