Why isnt malzahar in the LCS?

Because he lacks mobility and hard CC making him jungler fodder.

Immobile.

When you ult someone, you become suppressed aswell.

Sadly, his Suppress is easily interrupted.

Because several reasons

1: No mobility and will be a free kill for the jungler. And don't bring Xerath into this, he can get away with the no mobility in the pro scene due to never being in range of a gank.

2: He is very ult reliant for killing someone. In highly corordinated games, this ult will be interupted within a half second of him using it.

Basically, Malzahar is a solo que pick, but he has a ton of weaknesses the pros can abuse to turn the game into a 5v4. In solo que nobody has the corordination to interupt that ult, meaning he is a good pick there.

Also because he is a non aggressive champion. Sure, in a 1v1 he can flash kill you instantly, but in siege and teamfight scenarios he needs to capitalize on enemies' mistakes.
