When Are We Actually Going to Fix Malzahar?

  • His ult can't be cleansed and it is point and click.
  • His playstyle only involves pushing and shoving your opponent. -> this leads to him having a cs, sometimes hp advantage, and lane priority. This, in turn, lets him roam and apply pressure throughout the map.
  • His point and click suppression allows him to set up ganks with relative ease.
  • He isn't that easily gankable because he usually has lane priority and he has a spellshield to help him escape, even with his lack of mobility.

He is a medium range mage with a binary playstyle. This leads him to completely oppress certain matchups while being useless in others. When are we actually going to fix Malz?

They sure need to remove that spellshield. I main malzahar and well, that thing totally changed his playstyle.

WELCOME TO THE CRUSADE!!! Yeah we all hate the current malz, from the malz mains that all want something changed/reverted on his kit, the our opponents who hate our waveclear (secret: aa his voidspawns!), passive (secret: aa him first), and ult (secret: 1100 gold and your never have to worry again!).

The truth is the only thing most people agree on is he needs work. I released a recent thread with my suggestion for a malz rework, and actually got to hear a lot on it about the "good old days" from people who used to main him.

Sadly now he is a walking ult that sends free gold scuttling your way. Hopefully riot will listen at some point.

I hope they git rid of the GD spell shield because its been nothing but a horror show of Nerfs to Malz kit every since they gave it to him. Now he's nothing but a walking feed.
