Thinking on it can someone explain

Exactly why someone would pick Ap Malphite Jungle when Evelynn does the exact same s#!t but arguable better since she is built for those massive ap burst on caught out targets and groups. Because I've seen multiple Ap Malphites all do terrible but I wanna focus on why would someone do him Jungle when Evelynn does the same exact thing as him but better. She clears faster,has most burst to her kit,a camo,advanced regen when in her passive,Max HP damage on E,and her ult is more flexible since I can do damage with it comparable to Malphite ult but I also escape with it. Like the only reason you might pick Malphite is for his Ult getting a lot of the enemy team like 3 or more but that's unlikely since they will never be that clustered together unless they really have no clue how to avoid his ult in the first place.Like if Malphite fails an engage he has to try to walk away but with Eve I can ult away if it's that bad and then camo and regen to a high enough health to go again. So yeah I'm having trouble seeing why people are going Ap Malphite at least in the Jungle when Evelynn exist and even scales better in game and in elo.

Like I get people might find him Simpler to play but at the cost of everything Eve has over him with more difficulty though not too much it just feels like Ap Malphite Jungle is nearly a strictly worse version of Evelynn jungle.

Because an initiator nuke is actually bomb. The malphites you played with were just bad.

People think its "OP" because a YouTube video told them so, and they are trying to cheese wins because there bad...If you see a Malphite jungle then dodge because its garneted he's trying to cheese a win because he's a really bad player. If you ever see something stupid played regularly its most likely because one of the idiot youtubers told people its " STUPIDLY BROKEN THIS WILL 100% GARENTEE YOU WINS OMFG YEET PLAY THIS FOR FREE ELO"

I know Exil said it was broken in Low Elo which is why people are doing it but the worst part is they don't even bring Dark Harvest like they are supposed to. I've even taken up banning him if I see a team mate wants him.

Because AP Malphite in lane struggles, but if he's in the jungle he can relatively safely farm up to 6, and just do R from fog of war for the laner. It's not good, it's just a pain in the butt if your team doesn't track him.

That is a thing but again Evelynn farms significantly faster and post 6 she's just got so many gank routes opened up by her passive that is doesn't even matter if the Malphite get's there at the same time since she can't be spotted by yellow wards while Malphite can be. I just struggle to really see the point of someone going with Malphite when Evelynn is a for the most part better option in every way. She might lack the AOE cc of his ult but she has him in basically every other category plus she is built to do damage while Malphite isn't entirely meant to do so. That point you brought up is again one of the reasons I don't get Ap Malphite jungle since as I said if the enemy knows he's around or where he is they aren't gonna give him good ult while Eve can be almost anywhere in that same spot and still get the jump on someone before running off to safety.
