Morgana drains spirit from her enemies, healing as she deals damage to champions, large minions, and medium and larger jungler monsters.

Your Q (Dark Binding) roots for 2-3s — it's one of the longest CCs in the game. A landed Q guarantees your full combo.
The E shield (Black Shield) blocks magic CC — use it reactively on an ally being targeted by CC, not preemptively.
W (Tormented Shadow) deals more damage to targets below 50% HP — place it under an enemy rooted by Q to maximize damage.
Your R (Soul Shackles) requires staying in range for 3s for the 2nd stun — use Zhonya's during the channel to survive.
As support, a landed Q at level 1-2 can easily result in first blood with your ADC's follow-up.

Playing against Morgana
How to counter and exploit weaknesses
Stay behind minions: her Q is a linear projectile blocked by units.
Her E (Black Shield) only blocks magic CC, not physical damage or physical CC — knockbacks and knockups go through it.
Punish her when her E is on cooldown (24-18s): that's when her allies are vulnerable to engages.
If Morgana uses her R, move away immediately to break the chain before the 2nd stun — or burst her if she doesn't have Zhonya's.
