Best Relics for Morgan Le Fay

As is typical with Mages in Smite, Purification Beads are the way to start, making Morgan immune to crowd control effects and remaining useful throughout the entirety of a match.

Next, relics like the Aegis Amulet, Blink Rune, or Heavenly Wings, depending on how players plan on approaching their match.

The Aegies Amulet can help Morgan not take damage when in a pinch.

The Blink Rune is helpful for more aggressive play, while Heavenly Wings are great when Morgan needs to make a hasty retreat.

Horrific Emblem is also a good choice, debuffing enemy gods, slowing movement and attack speeds.

Best Starting Items for Morgan Le Fay

Morgan relies heavily on her abilities to buff her basic attacks, so it makes sense to start her with a Conduit Gem to ensure her abilities do a bit of extra damage.

Players looking to get an early start with ability cooldowns can start with the Sands of Time.

Playing Morgan Le Fay

While Morgan Le Fay can buff her attacks through her abilities, increasing her mana and decreasing her cooldowns are essential to effective play.

The use of her abilities is of utmost importance, and players will want to use them as much as possible in order to secure themselves a victory.

With each mark applied lasting only 30 seconds, having a cooldown that allows a player to pop off another ability before marks disappear means that Morgan's basic attacks will continue to operate at full capacity.
