Should malphite get a rework?
He seems really old, in every way. Kit, model, everything.

But we love him just the way he is.

I love him too, his model just seems like something from 2k9 though.
I’ll be one that wants a rework on him. I like his theme of being anti-AD stone monster tank, but he doesn’t fully feel that way, with a lot of strength more in his ultimate, especially the AP ratio. Personally, true tank Malphite (as he should be) > AP assassin Malphite.
His model needs updated, as he looks nothing like his splash and he’s tiny. Pretty sure Sion has a bigger model than he does.
Kit-wise, I feel he’s got too much locked into his ultimate. A multi-target Knockup as fast as it is, and with that base damage and scaling is incredibly strong, and sucks up a lot of power. His W active feels off at times. E is ok, it’s armor scaling is nice, just the debuff isn’t really noticeable outside of hitting an auto attacker. Q consumes so much of his mana that it hurts, and I feel they could do something more useful with it than an MS steal if power shifted from his ult.
My opinion, he feels like he should have either the grounded debuff, because ground, an armor shatter debuff, like rocks crushing armor or breaking walls, or a snare, like forming an earth cage or something like that, on something. His hyper-armor and armor scaling would be the core of his kit to me though, maybe E along with that due to its armor scaling, and his ult secondary to that.
Malphite could be a terrain creation tank, building walls and structures to lock down targets.
It’s not a great idea but I think it’s unique.

Definitely unique. With that, I imagine an ult that makes terrain, probably after a small delay for counterplay, can’t dash through, but Blinks are fine.
Terrain based tank could be a cool route and open up some interesting ideas, not sure how well it’d all go through though.
I think he should.
I was told that he's more unfun to play as than against really.
As a tank he’s pretty boring imo
As long as they keep his armor scaling and his ult then sure why not
His ult will always be a favourite, one shotting em adcs will never get old.
Only a visual. AP Malphite ftw!

AP malphite ftw
He could use better visuals, also his sounds sound be louder, his punches and stuff should be giant KRAASSSSHH, KABOOOSHH!! and THRRROOOOMP he maybe should be the first champion who makes sound when he walks!
As for his kit idk, I don't play him he's probably mostly fine.
There are no champs with walking sounds? Woah
Kled while he is on top of Skaarl actually does have walking sounds.
I think he just needs a visual update. His spikes look like lumpy turds... He doesn't look like the glorious golem he's supposed to be.
I agree, I enjoy his kit but it’s old fashioned.
I believe so. But if they give him a stronger base kit they’d have to take power from his ult.
That would annoy people.
