Malzahar
Malzahar is in a tough spot right now for a couple of reasons
Ultimate is single target and leaves him vulnerable
His wave clear is great, but this doesn't help bot lane.. or middle either. (Especially after the nerfs)
His teamfighting tends to revolve around poking with Q, while your minions all die to hurricanes and aoe.
His kit requires full build;
I'll explain because he's a slow immobile champ, he's essentially required to get
and
but this is AFTER a mana item.
TLDR - for malz to kick in it costs too much gold, or his ratio's are too low, and the voidlings die too fast.
**I think a quick fix would be to empower his minions based on what spell hits a champion.
Q - voidlings hop to target champion E - speed buff running towards target champion**
