Im not asking how to LANE aginst a AP malhite, Im asking how to PLAY THE WHOLE GAME AGISNT AP MALPHITE I cant buy zonhya's on every champion in the game. The way he works is sooo stupid. You can literally bully your opponent ouf of the lane with manaflowband + scorch + comet combo and scale into the lategame. That's SO DUMB. And if you want you can go AP Malphite Jungle to avoid bad matchups and have an eaver bigger inpact on the map. He is so strong that i cant eaven imagine what can I do aginst him. He doesnt eaven loose that much mana in the early game if he has manaflow band. Also if he buys 2 doran rings you instantly loose the early game.

** Look at this! ** https://www.probuilds.net/champions/details/Malphite You can see here how often do challengers play AP Malphite. This is so dumb. Ap Malphite has no counterplay and needs to be nerfed The 100%->80% ap scaling ult change is not enough. He will be sill to strong. It shouldn't be like that. This champion was meant to be a tank, not an AP assasin.

His 3 most built items are:

  1. Enchantment: Runic Echoes
  2. Morellonomicon
  3. Hextech Protobelt-01

He needs big NERFS NOW. This thing in unhealthy for the game an is not fun to play aginst....

Wait literally one day for him to get his AP ratios nerfed?

Play around the cooldown of his ult get a pen and paper right it down and calculate with his ratios what the cooldowns.

Then force fights when it is down.

Don’t bunch up, spreading out decreases the impact of his ult due to lower amount of targets. Build magic resistances, if the malphite is fed enough then magic resistance isn’t going to matter that much on a squishy carry but it will help.

If malphite goes full ap, he is very squishy. If he initiates a fight with his R like how a tank malphite would, (assuming that atleast one carry survived) he becomes an extremely easy target to pick off and burst down before the enemy team joins the fight.

If you are playing mid/top (or even support) one champion I would recommend to counter malphite is Galio. Idk if his W still has it, but I believe that Galio’s W cannot be canceled by CC while it is charging.

Imagine spreading out. I can't believe they actually nerfed him lol. Are they going to start nerfing all AoE ults because people don't know how to spread out? Better nerf ori, fizz, ekko, etc, people can't spread out

BUILD. DEFENSE.

Seriously a single item 3156 item 3102 on a squishy will ruin any lategame AP Malph when he fails to deliver the 1 shot. His gimmick is one-shotting people, leaving even 10% HP means he failed pretty much and is useless.

Buy a Null-Magic Mantle.

wait comet? That means he's missing ultimate hunter or presence of mind.....it means this malphite sucks. I play a lot of ap malph. He's not hard to defend, malphite wrecks people who don't adjust and who are bad.

First thing, get some mr

Banshee's veil is awesome or a hexdrinker/maw

Second thing is to ward and find him.

And never group on top of each other

Or Initiate on him....For example I'll play nocturn and ill just ult on to him, he either dies or tries to ult me. If I time my W, his ult is wasted.... If' i'm darius I'll frontline for the team and when we are ready, I'll go right for him, again he needs to ult me of I catch him and he's dead.

AP Malph is very very squishy....take advantage of that.

you have to force him to choose his target and then blow his load, if he's running comet his CD will be pretty high, so it shouldn't be that bad.
