Predecessor Builds > Morigesh > Morigesh The Swamp Queen (Offlane Included)

(UNDER CONSTRUCTION AFTER RECENT ITEM CHANGES)

Hey, I'm Armagedon or on Twitch as HarmageddonTTV, a dedicated Cultist of Morigesh. here is how you can help spread the glory of the Swamp Queen.

Morigesh is a close-range magic damage based assassin specialized in DOT (damage over time) abilities and % HP damage. Due to this you will see reflexed in this build that we lean into a build with the goal of effectively eliminating targets while still allowing ourselves room for error in order to escape.

Build:

Your build order for Midlane is pretty straight forward in the beginning,
1. Megacosm first into #2
2. Wraith leggings will give you your first power spike.
3. Tainted Scepter if you see yourself having trouble managing your mana, consider going Caustica > Tainted Scepter.
4. Caustica
5. Oblivion Crown
The last item is self explanatory, Oblivion Crown is an absolutely massive power spike for Morigesh and leans further into her % HP damage with its passive.

Flex:
Alternatively you could run
- Spellbreaker is another option for 5th item. It could help you with starting trades and as soft protection vs. CC since mages lack a cleanse.
- DreamBinder as last item or squeeze it in as the 3rd item instead of Oblivion Crown for the built in slow to help you chase and/or escape engages, not my favorite choice but worth mentioning.
- Lifebinder Could be used, though use sparingly, there are better options.

Crests: Epoch

Not much to say here, Epoch is your best option for just about every matchup, SoulBearer could also be viable for brawling and when immunity isn't required and Tempest is good if you find yourself fighting a lot in melee range or they have a melee heavy team. Use your best judgement here.

Honorable Mention:
Time-Flux Band can be fun to build into certain match ups. The rest of the magic crests aren't worth considering.

Offlane:

I have included a offlane build for Morigesh, she can be reasonably viable in that lane and your build options are flexible, use your best judgement here. I will likely make a separate build for Offlane at a later date once I have nailed down the best options and skill orders for that lane. The match ups are extremely varied so the build must be flexible and robust.

Credentials: I played Morigesh from the moment she released till the day Paragon died, I played her in Fault. My unofficial rank on this site is Diamond and climbing. I also have ~4k hours in League Of Legends climbed to Diamond in that game before I got tired of the gameplay. I also have experience in Smite from launch but not many hours in it.

TLDR: I'm not a novice at Mobas and I am passionate about this character.
