Those that did their job in hyping and nerfing malzahar in promoting their youtube channels and those that use to get countered by Malz who thought twice in champ select are you happy now, there are real Malzahar players out there who play him AP at high rank levels of play and have been screwed with this ad minion fiasco. The second nerf after pbe:

Malzahar: Higher mana costs to constrain pushing and jungling, less safe jungling, slightly weaker ult

Q mana cost to 80 from 60 W mana cost to 80 from 60 Neutral monster damage reduction to 50% from 75% R damage to 5/7/9% from 6/8/10%

Why would I wanna push my laner anymore unless they are trying to push me under turret when I'm suppose to play passive to survive my lane and try to exchange with them. I can't even hav a proper exchange anymore and without gettin poked out of lane with as they dont fear my damage.

Malzahar is one of my main champions.. Has been for over 2 seasons. I DO NOT like the changes at all. It's given him power spikes at really weird times. To top that off, he was my secret pick for dealing with tanks because of his old w. Now, he can't deal with tanks and is almost forced to go ad because of his brutally terrible ap scaling. They've completely ruined who he used to be. I'm not saying the current iteration isn't strong. But it's not fun. Old malz was fun and unique. They should remove AD scaling on voidlings, and maybe keep this new passive. But overall, I want old malz back. This malz is not fun.

Where did you see this change set? Also is he going to get nerfed even more? He's my fav champ and I been trying to figure out what's his future. I don't want to main him if he's gonna keep getting nerfed. In fact, he's the only reason I still play LoL anymore, since my other main heimerdinger is Horrible now.

the only reason to play malz right now is jungle. thats it. his laning phase was butchered. he cant burst anymore and his damage overall (not including the nerfs upcoming) was already reduced by half with this patch. his q and e each lost 100 damage with reduced scaling.
