Just some random thoughts:

I kind of wish Morgana had a different passive. I mean, the free spell vamp is nice, but I wish it was something more than just free stats. It can still be something to do with lane sustain and something a little more engaging.

I also don't get the short attack range, either...

To be honest, I felt she got good when they buffed her mana costs a long while ago. It made her laning so much easier and even more sustainable. She's pretty much ungankable with that shield and snare. That's what makes her even more attractive as a support, since she can do at 0 cs.

The fact that Black Shield only blocks magic damage means it won't protect herself or anyone else from Ignite or the enemy team's ADC. That's why I think it's inherently balanced. Black shield deviates from a catch-all damage blocking shield, or even a spell shield, and becomes an anti-mage, anti-CC skill. And I feel the shield duration is fine considering its downtime; it means using it at the wrong time could mean it's useless.
