Malzahar's Spell Casting Sounds
Introduction Hello to everyone who reads this thread! I submitted a ticket about this and Riot Skeletor suggested that I should share this to the boards in hopes of other Riot employees being able to see this.
That being said, this thread is in regards to a request to giving back Malzahar his voice lines when casting his spells. Please refer to the links below.

- As you can see from this video, it portrays the pre-reworked Malzahar (before patch 6.9). Take note of how he makes sounds when he casts his Q, W, and E.

- This video, obviously, shows the newer Malzahar that we're all aware of. Notice how he doesn't make any sounds when casting his Q, W, and E.
**So what? **
- As a Malzahar player with over one million mastery points that played Malzahar before his 6.9 rework, I really, really miss the spell cast sounds that Malzahar used to make. It feels as if he's lost some of his identity, which is supposed to be a champion philosophy that Riot puts a lot of emphasis on. Don't get me wrong, I LOVE Malzahar right now. I like him because he feels strong, yet balanced because there is plenty of counterplay to him.
TLDR: Malzahar should get his Q, W, and E spell cast sounds back because the rework removed them.
