Riot, do not rework Malphite

Shmeeve··6 votes·3,566 views

Malphite in my opinion is one of the most fun champs, he is a good team player because of his ult, e, and q slow. Also he is very fun to play in my opinion so riot, please do not rework him, he is very fun to play as it is for being an old champ that you think just "fixing" him will make him better, he is fun to play and that's what all we want out of him.

Praise the Rock.

Malphite is probably the least fun intensive champion I've ever played tbh. Either with or against him.

He just slams the ground when you're near and then walks away . . .

Throws a rock at you then walks away . . .

Activates a passive and begins to auto attack you until he's dead or won the trade . . .

The only thing worth mentioning is his tanky ability and amazing ultimate. But even then, you literally just walk around and be a mountain without much engagement than 'be a mountain.' You can make this more fun and intuitive than this, and that's why I feel like he's a champion that needs a re-work the most.

I used to main Malphite a long time ago (got over 250k mastery points) and I can safely say he was quite boring to play. (At least for me). He feels very useless without his ult up and you just sorta walk around.... Being a rock.

I think Riot should rework him for 2 reasons.

  1. To update his garbage model/visuals
  2. To shift a tiny bit of power from his ult onto the other parts of his kit so he isn't so reliant on it. (While keeping it basically the same of course.)

i think they need to replace his q, which i stand by my statement that it is the worst ability in the entire game. once they do that he'll be a lot better.

His ultimate is the only good thing about his kit right now. He deserves a rework

really just update his in-game look, quotes, edit the scaling on his abilities a little then he's good, nothing more needed really.

Malphite Malphite is just one of those champions that I almost never see anymore, simply because I feel like he's a niche pick & Conqueror https://vignette.wikia.nocookie.net/leagueoflegends/images/2/20/Conqueror_rune.png/revision/latest/scale-to-width-down/64?cb=20180314225947 exists. It's ashame, this guy can be an absolute MONSTER when he's played in teamfights & landing that 4-5 man Ultimate is just so goddamn satisfying.

Not saying they should rework him, but for the love of god keep his Ultimate the exact way it is. If you ask me, that ability is one of Malphs Defining traits & one of the things he's Known for.

I think he's fine because he's using his body as a projectile, he literally has to hurt himself into the middle of danger to get his knockup off and aside from that he's just an immobile tank who can get kited. Dodge his ult and he can't really touch you. I don't see a problem. He's not overpowered but he's not inherently too weak either.
