Darius vs Morgana Matchup Summary

The Darius vs Morgana matchup is a decisive matchup in League of Legends ranked play. Based on 8 recent matches analyzed, Darius wins with a 62.5% win rate compared to Morgana's 37.5%, giving Darius a 25.0 percentage point advantage. Darius dominates at every stage — from early laning through late game team fights. This consistent advantage makes it difficult for Morgana players to find favorable windows, so team-dependent strategies and avoiding solo confrontations are essential. The most significant statistical gap is in crowd control, where Morgana leads by 1.2s CC/min — a difference that heavily influences the outcome of trades and skirmishes. Darius players can confidently pick into Morgana and play aggressively from level 1. Look to establish lane dominance early through favorable trades and zone Morgana away from CS whenever possible. Understanding these matchup dynamics is essential for champion select decisions and in-game strategy when facing this lane opponent.

Farming
5.4Darius
5.5Morgana
Darius and Morgana farm at nearly identical rates in this matchup, with only a 0.2 CS/min difference. Neither champion holds a meaningful farming advantage, so lane dominance will come from trading and jungle interaction rather than CS leads.
Damage
520Darius
625Morgana
Morgana heavily out-damages Darius by 105 DMG/min, dominating both short trades and all-in fights. Darius should avoid extended combat and instead focus on burst trade patterns — short engages followed by immediate disengagement — to avoid letting Morgana's sustained damage advantage take over.
Economy
10,490Darius
10,082Morgana
Darius earns 408 more gold per game than Morgana, equivalent to roughly one additional component item. This economic edge comes from a combination of better farming, kill participation, and objective control, giving Darius slightly faster item completions.
Utility
0.7Darius
1.9Morgana
Morgana brings significantly more crowd control than Darius, with 1.2 more seconds of CC per minute. This large utility gap makes Morgana far more valuable in setting up jungle ganks, controlling objectives, and locking down targets in team fights. Darius should invest in tenacity and position carefully to avoid being chain-CC'd.
Sustain
997Darius
563Morgana
Darius vastly out-sustains Morgana, healing and mitigating 434 more damage per minute. This massive durability gap means Darius can absorb significant punishment and remain in lane while Morgana is forced to recall. Building grievous wounds early is essential for Morgana, and focusing on burst trade patterns rather than sustained fights is critical.

Darius dominates the early game (first 15 minutes) with a commanding 66.7% win rate — a 33.3 percentage point lead over Morgana. This lopsided early game means Darius can dictate the pace of the lane from level 1, controlling trades, wave state, and river priority.

Late game (25+ minutes) is equally balanced, with Darius at 50.0% win rate — only 0.0 points ahead of Morgana. Team fight execution and macro play determine the winner at this stage, not champion matchup advantage.

Darius holds the advantage at every stage of the game, making this a consistently favorable matchup from lane through late game team fights. Morgana players should look for outplays, team-dependent strategies, and picks rather than relying on scaling to win this matchup.
