Lets face it: Malzahar got nerfed because he is too strong in Bronze/Silver/Gold

His high winrate comes from this eelo and 80% of the global population is Bronze/Silver/Gold. At this eelo players are not good enough to exploit all his weaknesses. From Diamond and above he hardly picked and his winrate is not that good.

To give a couple of examples:

• He is extremely easy to gank because all of his abilities push and he has zero mobility/escapes yet low eelo junglers will fail at making succesful ganks if they make any at all pre 6.
• People only buy recommended items and ignore the existence of QSS.
• Lack of team coordination. People don't group fast enough.
• If he uses ult during a teamfight you can cancel it by disrupting him. Save cc for malzahar just like you do vs Katarina but that doesn't happen.

I am sad to see 'my used to be main', until I reached diamond, getting nerfed so hard. At higher eelo his weaknesses become so obvious he becomes impossible to play. He is just like Blitzcrank. Only good vs bad people who make lots of mistakes. He is definitely not a playmaker because he has no mobility and is easy to disrupt. I was hoping he would get some changes to his kit to make him more balanced in low eelo and more playable in higher eelo. Unfortunately he is not a flashy champ big LCS plays so he doesn't get the attention he deserves. RIP Malzahar 2015
