Morgana vs Graves Matchup Summary

The Morgana vs Graves matchup is a decisive matchup in League of Legends ranked play. Based on 5 recent matches analyzed, Graves wins with a 80.0% win rate compared to Morgana's 20.0%, giving Graves a 60.0 percentage point advantage. Game phase dynamics play a critical role here: Graves controls the early laning stage, but Morgana outscales as the game goes longer. The matchup shifts dramatically depending on game length — Graves needs to press advantages before Morgana reaches their power spikes, while Morgana should focus on safe farming and hitting key item breakpoints. The most significant statistical gap is in crowd control, where Morgana leads by 1.1s CC/min — a difference that heavily influences the outcome of trades and skirmishes. Graves has a strong advantage in this matchup. Morgana players should play defensively, prioritize safe farming under tower, and look for opportunities created by jungle pressure or Graves overextending. Avoid prolonged trades and wait for team fights where positioning and coordination matter more. Understanding these matchup dynamics is essential for champion select decisions and in-game strategy when facing this lane opponent.

Damage
674Morgana
1,048Graves
Graves heavily out-damages Morgana by 374 DMG/min, dominating both short trades and all-in fights. Morgana should avoid extended combat and instead focus on burst trade patterns — short engages followed by immediate disengagement — to avoid letting Graves's sustained damage advantage take over.
Economy
12,198Morgana
15,995Graves
Graves generates a commanding 3,797 more gold per game than Morgana. This substantial economic advantage means Graves consistently reaches key item breakpoints earlier, creating a compounding lead that grows throughout the game.

Utility
1.8Morgana
0.7Graves
Morgana brings significantly more crowd control than Graves, with 1.1 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.

Sustain
1,074Morgana
1,017Graves

Graves dominates the early game (first 15 minutes) with a commanding 100.0% win rate — a 100.0 percentage point lead over Morgana. This lopsided early game means Graves 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 Morgana at 50.0% win rate — only 0.0 points ahead of Graves. Team fight execution and macro play determine the winner at this stage, not champion matchup advantage.

The power dynamics shift as the game progresses — Graves has the edge early, but Morgana gradually takes over. However, the margins are slim enough that either champion can win at any stage with the right plays. Focus on taking advantages when you have them rather than waiting for a specific game phase.
