Every single time I enter solo queue, I pray I don't have to face this guy, he's like the Yorick of midlane. I get that he's less useful in teamfights and all that crap (something I'd argue against though) but for those first twenty minutes, I feel like ripping my hair out just because he's that annoying. I don't even think he needs a nerf at this point, I just want Riot to change him so he's less infuriating to lane against.

Just leave the game, you'll be much more calm.

Dank meme, I'd rather have Malzahar changed for the better of the entire community.
lightdragoon881 votesI play Malzahar and I have my good and bad matchups. The key is to not be so passive. If you are passive, you are just letting him spread the Space Aids. Early on his E doesn't do much damage and he needs to set things up to make them spread.
Be aggressive, push him, make him struggle to get farm.
Now the champ that I think is unfun to play against: Jungle Yi.

I get that you need to play a certain way to win lane, but that doesn't change how he is extremely annoying to play against.

So fun when you get set back in your build and he ends up shredding you with voidlings in the end.
Rebonack1 votesIf his Ult were a 2.5 second stun he would be healthier for the game as far as I'm concerned. Tenacity and Cleanse would become viable options against him, as well as giving him a way to peel for himself and better set up his combo. That's a win-win for everyone involved.
Something like...
Void Eruption: Malzahar creates a Void Portal inside his foe, causing a fully evolved Voidling to burst out of them, dealing damage and stunning them for 2.5 seconds.
Nice and simple. Fun interaction with his passive, too. Might actually make AD Malz a viable ADC pick on Summoner's Rift.

I just like posting this whenever I see someone mention Malzahar.

The only champ I can imagine getting close to Malzahar's level of toxic playstyle is Yorick, nobody else.

Yosuke Apperu1 votesMaybe if he didn't have the longest silence in the game, he'd be more okay to lane against.
Lugg1 votesHe is still VERY useful in teamfights. He has an AoE that melts tanks, an AoE silence, and an ult that guarantees a kill.

is the Anti-Yorick of Mid-Lane when it comes to laning against DoT-Sorcerers.
