Max 2 -> 1 -> 4 - > 3.
If you need your ult ASAP as you have good transformation options in the game - consider maxing your ult over your 1, as it reduces your ult's CDR with each level. I hardly do this, and just build a cdr item if I need my ult quicker. But it isn't a terrible thing to do. I recommend you max your ult over your 1 if you're running some hybrid/bruiser/support Morrigan build.
Remember that when you ult, you still maintain your level'd abilities. So if you're relying on a certain character's first 3 abilities to kill somebody early-mid, keep in mind that you'll have the 2 & 1 maxed in order while as that character. This doesn't really matter if you're relying on a transformation's ult.
Vs Warrior/Guard/ & tanky assassin/jung with over 100 protections.
Swap charon's coin order with divine ruin if you're facing a healer/sustainy char, or if you're facing somebody who's rushing soul eater, fat lifesteal (especially if passives help their lifesteal.)
Always consider a Soul Reaver as well if the enemy team is very tanky in HP.
Sands of times is very necessary here as it'll put you with 20% CDR early game. You won't be going any type of CDR until you get a red pot late-late game & mainly because of the fact that you're rushing all different types of pen items/anti heal.
CDR is very important on morrigan as you constantly need your kit to be up to keep up the pressure & rotations.

yaaasssuhhh - JUNGLE MORRIGAN HUNNY. It works & this heffa in the jung carried my big juicy ass to masters in s7, averaged a 70+ winrate with her here in keyboard queues.
Nobody expects it & you don't have the pressure of a middle laner, You can play at your own pace, the way you want. Morrigan jungle allows different playstyles & crazy plays depending on team compositions. I personally always prioritize movement speed here as it's sort of necessary for quick rotations & ganks.

Make sure you make use of your passive auto damage. Small advice regarding your splash auto as morrigan, is when having a poke battle, try to hit a wall/object with collision close to you, as you'll get your splash auto quicker. Using any ability, or taking to long before the 3rd auto, will not allow you to splash auto. It's why you must learn the timing of this, as it's very important & a necessity for doing well as Morrigan.
& don't sleep on auto canceling with poly. At least proc it once when doing your kit's combo.
When you're about to detransform while ulting, quickly turn around as it slightly pushes you to the opposite direction. This is very important when running away from people, & when trying to catch up to somebody. As that little space could allow your 2/or an auto to reach them, or could get you killed.
Something a lot of people don't know about morrigan is that when she transforms, she's considered a "new" character. So any dot effect (like da ji's 1,serqet ult, ah puch 3,) , or timing ability (nu wa ult, ares ult, tsukuyomi ult, chiron's 2) is canceled when timing your ult perfectly.
You're always building these items as Morrigan, no matter what dps role you're in.

I don't consider the way I build her, "meta". I mostly prioritize movement speed on her while other people prioritize power.
I rush doom orb if I don't snowball early, otherwise I'd rush rod of tahuti before the 4th item (which is almost always polynomicon for me.). I lose most of my games where I don't rush movement speed of some sort (doom orb, charon's), if I don't have a lead.
I also rush a charon's coin if the enemy team comp is tanky. To stack it early & deal with their tankiness by mid game.

YES I build anti heal on her. Ya'll really think I'm going to rely on randoms to build anti heal? If I find competent teammates who build anti heal vs heavy lifesteal/sustain/healing, then I'd probably go a desolation.
It's 2021 and people STILL underestimate all types of self sustain in this game. If you're in diamond and below, just build anti heal and keep it moving, because nobody else will.
S9 Divine Ruin
PASSIVE - Enemies hit by your abilities have 40% reduced healing for 5 seconds.
You cleanse most of these characters abilities by ulting, & cancel their abilities with your stun.
If you beads artemis's ult, and quickly ult while tusky is still up, you'll get stunned again, as you're considered a "new" character. It's the same thing with hun batz ult. Don't ever forget these interactions.
You can obviously counter a bad matchup by turning into somebody safe in a bad situation, but this list is mostly based off of how morrigan would deal with these characters as dps without ult or relics.
please delete these characters
