Starting to think it's time to change "if" to "when"
Malzahar will be reverted.
As this Gordian Knot of a rework just seems to take one step back, with every step forward.
Riot seems to also have some kind of aversion to touching his Q,E, & R. This will be the 8th adjustment to his kit since the rework, only 2 of which have affected his Q,E, or R, Which were a +20 mana cost to Q and a 5% total damage reduction to R, as part of the hotfix 5 days after the MYMU.
It took Kog'Maw 315 days. Malzahar is at 277. How long before the problems the reworked malz causes overcome the "problems" that old malz caused?
I'm not one to use pro play as an example, but i really do question these "problems" he caused... he hadn't seen pro-play since LCS season 1 ( http://lol.esportspedia.com/wiki/Season_2_World_Championship/Statistics/Champions ), prior to the rework. Outside of LCS he had an almost non-existent ban rate prior and a play rate averaging about 3% since 2014 ( http://www.leagueofgraphs.com/champions/stats/malzahar/all ).
