Morgana vs Alistar

Confidence mediumUpdated Jun 8, 2026

Overview

Deny Alistar's engage by holding (E) to block knockup or displacement CC and protect ADC access.
Control brush to hide (Q) angles and create pick opportunities with ADC follow-up.
Use lane space to enable poke while preventing Alistar's flank engages and maintain river vision.

Trading pattern

Hold (E) to deny Alistar's engage CC, then fish for (Q) from brush to set up ADC follow-up.
Avoid throwing (Q) through minion waves to maintain hook pressure and punish missed engages.
Synchronize trades around (W)+(Q) cooldown; punish immediately after his engage tools are down.

Danger windows

(W)+(Q) combo from brush with ADC ready creates high engage threat; hold (E) to block.
Level 2 and 3 when Alistar gains full engage and stun access; avoid overextending without shield.
Alistar's ultimate (R) enables tower dives and extended all-ins; respect cooldown and position accordingly.

Early game

Track level 2 race closely; hold (E) to counter (W)+(Q) engage when ADC can follow.
Deny Alistar brush control to reduce his engage threat and protect ADC access to the wave.
Use early wave crashes to create safe roam windows after confirming ADC safety and river vision.

Power spikes

Level 2 unlocks binding plus shield threat; contest wave only if ADC can follow engage.
Level 3 completes kit, enabling poke and peel; use brush control and cooldown tracking to trade safely.
Level 6 ultimate enables strong counter-engage; use it with confirmed ADC follow-up or for defensive resets.

Win conditions

Convert (Q) pick threat and (E) shield to deny Alistar's engage and enable ADC damage.
Control river vision and wave state to create safe roam windows and prepare dragon setups.
Use level 6 counter-engage to turn fights, protect ADC, and secure favorable 2v2 or teamfight entries.
