the funny part is, he got more work than all of the other mages combined...

cassiopeia may as well be left the same(her passive...really...it's laughable XD) and keep the new change to her W

vladimir's damage was reduced two fold (he no longer heals at all from his Q (well, it's only 20% except on third cast where it's 60%) and his E is a copy/paste from Sion's code

anivia...they nerfed her...again...really? they could have at least worked on her wall...all she gained was half of a second stun in exchange for losing 0.2AP from her Q and I didn't even look at her ultimate after they stated the range had to grow from a radius of 150 to 400

brand...all the work for him is visual and he gained one change to his ability that actually LOWERS his burst damage for an easily avoided ability...(his E became a time-delay AOE spell centered on the enemy champion)

and didn't they mention at least 3 other mages and there were no updates for them XD

think about Lb burst? turned to dust with this passive

Eh. She has ways to poke at him from relative safety and then see about dropping a combo on him before his passive comes back up. ~20 seconds is one heck of a window of opportunity given her CDs.

This just makes him very resistant to champions that are highly dependent upon burst with limited avenues to approach him such as Annie or Riven. Also, this makes him when played safe almost immune to certain team-fight CC initiations.

Yeah but you can't make Olaf blow his ult by auto attacking him.

He is now the premier anti-assassin mage... I like it. Also, if I'm seeing correctly there is AD scaling on them voidlings and they multiply when fighting jungle mobs, LONG LIVE AD MALZ AND MALZ JUNGLE

Yep voidlings do 50% your AD and you can have 6-7 up on a jungle mob/Dragon/Baron

With 2.5 items AD Malz can solo Baron

Voildlings trip some on hit affects like LS and Gunblade and Deaths Dance.

He got stripped of all his damage and instead of being an APC he is now an AD jungler. It is funny how people that have never played Malz before think he is better off with these changes. AD Malz jungle is something that has always existed but you hardly see it anywhere because it is not viable. His new passive is shit. Simply proc it, wait 1 second and then all-in him an he has no way to fight back because he lacks damage. Ult has literally no damage and has been reduced to a point and click suppress still completely countered by QSS.
