i am what u would consider a malzahar main, he was the only champion i truly enjoy playing (qq thread btw) and then Riot announced that they were gonna "update" malzahar, i just KNEW they were gonna screw him up.

Riot has a record of touching mages and leaving them ruined. for example, mordekaiser went from a very fun tank mage to garbage. and he was another favorite of mine, thank god i didnt buy the penta or card skin.

now, malzahar was updated from a cool heavy dmg mage into a garbage pokemon master. wtf? his aids dont do dmg anymore. his q doesnt do dmg anymore. his ult is the biggest JOKE ult in the entire game. to the developer that was working on this rework, dont touch anymore champions please. dont do it, the fans of the champ wish u the worst. a feminist in twitter wouldnt get half the crap im thinking u should get.

as a malz main i wasnt afraid of dueling any goddamn champ in league, now i have to run away and be scared because i am dependent on a pokemon. who thought this was a good goddamn idea. not a gamer i can tell u that. NO GAMER in the history of videogames has ever said "gosh, depending on a AI controlled npc is a good idea" none. you screwed up malzahar.

now, devs often say they want constructive feedback which i know they wont listen, because seriously, they didnt listen when malz players said NO the malz rework, and they defininetly wont bring back old malz, so i guess is time to learn how play dota or Heroes of the storm who knows?

and if u even think about pulling those stupid data about people banning malz. let me tell u something, in URF old malz was a pain in the ass the likes of wu fizz or zed, after the rework malz is garbage on urf but people where crying about how malz was op, BECAUSE THEY DONT KNOW HOW TO KILL A LITTLE VOIDLING. it hurts my brain how riot is going to take into consideration the amount of NOOBS that cant deal with garbage malz. no malz player now can handle me no matter which champ i choose because this new malz sucks, he is totally dependent on the pokemon now that doesnt even do the same amount of dmg it used to do, 3 fully grown voidlings in their last stages of like did more dmg than 6 or 7 of these crapppy ass voidlings.

i know this post wont matter, devs wont listen the dude who screwed up malz is patting himself in the back and going to ruin more champs in the future. for those of u who read thru this. thanks for reading have a good day,

The old voidlings did do a lot more damage, these new voidlings can't even push a tower anymore, six or seven voidlings barely able to do damage to a tower. In what world does that make any fucking sense, riot. Malzahar requires an insane amount of work to get the amount of voidlings required to actually kill someone, because they are dependent on killing minions in order to multiply, and the amount of time it takes to get enough out while holding down your opponent with ult also takes too long. Basically, Malzahar's strategy requires too much effort and is too predictable to make any sort of effective use of, and that is VERY bad for a mage who has to get close to do his thing.

Malzahar gets banned not because he's broken, he gets banned because he has good clear time in the jungle, and being perma-banned for jungle clear time is one of the dumbest most idiotic reasons to ban a champion I've ever fucking seen. He can secure dragon easily? Big fucking deal, we have a Rift Scuttler, and wards for a reason, so FUCKING USE THEM.

The new passive is definitely pretty dumb and the other part of it should have been shifted to his ult to emphasize its importance: that being the cc immunity that lingers for an additional second. 90% damage reduction: the fucker builds an obnoxious amount of health, enough that if you give him gunblade: it is almost enough to replicate the amount of healing Swain would do, and that is not an exaggeration by any fucking means, not when you have a wave of minions and your e is spreading all over the place like wildfire.

The only real pro to the Malzahar rework is the jungle clear time and the fact that you can now refresh malefic visions with call of the void.
