Malzahar has incredibly high mana costs and low range for his combo

I don't really get how Rito hasn't seen how easy it is to make Malzahar a great ap mid pick-up.

3 of his spells cost 100 mana + thats insane

I think after playing him a decent amount i get the feel im always just barely not in range in teamfights for using W E R

Sure his q has great range and is one of the few silences left.

But typically you makes Q last meaning his other spells are more important and q is just used as silence not poke.

So then you are essentially just in e and r range as w is more for pushing and combo

I know riot doesnt like point to click but with his q being a huge skillshot i think it's incredibly smart to reduce his mana costs to at least put him on par with all the mages. Especially with the mana regen nerfs.

I would highly prefer to increase his E R range just because it has so much potential. But right now its highly likely he wont even be able to use it without having to cancel his ult withing .5 seconds
