The jungle race — the windows in Amumu's plan

Read from Amumu's seat: the race windows this plan plays for against Morgana.

StageReadWhy
Level 1 ClearEven SkirmishThe W camp-melt is elite tempo, and that is worth exactly what you bring: Despair tank stats clear fine, but champion duels are losers — farm safe. Contest your opening camps when your health bar is the higher one and not before.
Level 2 SkirmishEven SkirmishEven on the second camp, for a concrete reason — Black Shield protects a teammate's gank, while Bandage Toss is your gank tool, not a duel-winner; avoid the river fights. Track the Q cooldown — once Binding whiffs she has nothing to stop you, and let the camp timers choose the fight for you.
Level 3 RouteEven SkirmishDead-even at the opening scuttle: your stun is for ganks — keep refusing 1v1s until items arrive, while Black Shield protects a teammate's gank. Whoever arrives with more HP and cooldowns wins, so track their clear and pick the moment.
Levels 4-5 MacroAmumu Favoured — Take DuelsThe 4-5 window is yours if you pick it: her 4-5 is a Dark Binding gank window beside her laners, with Black Shield making the counter-gank fail. Track that pattern, arrive one camp early, and take the fight before the follow-up shows.
Level 6 BreakpointCurse of the Sad Mummy FavouredThe AoE Curse locks entire contests — bandage in when their dashes are down. Morgana's six is not empty — the Shackles' delayed second stun wins any fight you let run long near her. Take the duel from even health rather than from behind, and break the tether range immediately — the second proc is the kill.
First Item SpikeSunfire Aegis / Liandry'sCompleting your core item triggers a massive damage, health, and wave clear multiplier that completely overpowers traditional brawlers in extended fights. Morgana's first item makes the binding-into-zone rotation a real chunk instead of a set-up for somebody else.
2+ Items ScalingAmumu Favoured at Full BuildTwo items on, the edge is yours. The one thing to plan around is that the utility wins her fights, not the damage — Black Shield plus a binding is the whole threat — take that away and the fight is a formality.

How to beat Morgana as Amumu: the first clear and pathing

Start your clear at the Raptors or Wolves camp utilizing your E and W to maximize early AoE clear speed without a leash. Morgana clears very fast with Tormented Shadow and stays healthy off her passive, so her early tempo is better than it looks.
