How would you fix malzahar?

I'm still confused as to how riot decided to rework malzahar based around the voidlings, because for years I thought the primary attraction people had to malzahar was the Space Aids. To me, space aids was always the most iconic malzahar ability, and I'm pretty sure the majority of other malzahar players would agree with that. The malzahar update felt very forced, they nerfed his most iconic ability ( Malefic Visions ) in favor of a gimmicky, obnoxious minion mechanic. And moving his previous W to his ult makes him feel completely fucking useless unless his ultimate is up.

Current malzahar is just conflicted as fuck, you typically want to use your ultimate on high threat assassins and divers, so why the fuck is your anti-tank ability suddenly tied to it? Voidlings feel awful, they either just die or people walk away from them, and the have no utility at all compared to the old W. And the new passive just feels like it's there, it either helps you or does nothing.

**revert him, rework the passive, and focus on Malefic visions. Either remove the voidlings or allow them to spread malefic visions like the plague it is meant to be. Maybe move some of the damage out of the ultimate and W and allow the pool to magnify the effects of malefic visions. This keeps him reliable, while also being more interactive, interesting, and thematically cool. **
