A reason to pick Morgana over Swain? This fucker right here. Dear Morgie, like most champions with a snare, counters him pretty hard; Swain, despite also having a snare, does not, becuase Swain's snare doesn't work so well against high-mobility champs, and Swain really, really does not like Grievous Wounds. Actually, that's a pretty good reason generally to pick Morgana over Swain: Morgie may have innate spell vamp, but she's still not shut down anywhere near so hard as that evil debuff.

And don't get me wrong, I've nothing against Swain. In fact, I say all this as a Swain main since I started playing; he was literally the very first champion I owned and played after the tutorial, and although I broadened out since then, he's still very much my bicyle champion, the one I can always come back to. It's because of that that I can confidently say that he is not for every game, and games where Fizz or anyone else with innate Grievous Wounds is on the enemy team are prime examples.
