How it works

General

  1. This build is all about Imperial Mandate and slowing your enemies.
  2. You support your team through disrupting fights, slowing enemies, providing healing/buffs, and soaking damage.

Playstyle

  1. Disrupt fights with slows and CC. ❄️
  2. Proc Imperial Mandate and Font of Life frequently. ⚡
  3. Support allies. 🎯
  4. Adapt items to counter enemy team. 🛡️

How to play

General

  1. You rush Rylai's Crystal Scepter first, then Imperial Mandate second.
  2. Your CC triggers Glacial Augment that slows AOE. All Slows trigger Font of Life AND Imperial Mandate, healing and buffing your allies.

How Imperial Mandate works

  1. Imperial Mandate requires your TEAM to proc it for damage. Try coordinating it with your allies - mark targets when they're about to get poked or when your team goes in.

Buffing your team

  1. Font of Life heal triggers various support items like Ardent Censer, Staff of Flowing Water or even Moonstone Renewer!
  2. If your team needs sustain, you can even get Diadem of Songs.
  3. If your team has auto attackers, get Ardent Censer. Your Font of Life will buff them constantly.
  4. Bandlepipes is excellent - gives MS and buffs allies' attack speed when you CC/slow enemies.
  5. Staff of Flowing Water is good item if you have lots of AP scaling champions on the team.

Adaptation

  1. Enemy team heavy on AP? Buy MR items like Kaenic Rookern or Spirit Visage.
  2. Enemy team heavy on AD? Buy Armor items like Thornmail or Randuin's Omen.
  3. Your team lacks damage? You can buy damage items - Liandry's Torment or Blackfire Torch work well.

Tips and Tricks

Champion

  1. Black Shield (E) is an excellent buff. Keep that for your carries, or when you go in Mark / Flash to Soul Shackles everyone.
  2. You can heal and get some sustain with your Soul Siphon (Passive). Just use Dark Binding (Q) on super or siege minions. This also works with your Tormented Shadow (W)

Riot

  1. Shrewd use of Black Shield can determine the outcome of team fights.
  2. Items that provide survivability allow Morgana to become extremely difficult to kill in conjunction with Black Shield and Soul Shackles.
  3. Tormented Shadow is an excellent farming tool if you're by yourself in a lane.
