Revert the Malzahar rework

For christ's sakes.

I like reworks don't get me wrong, old champs with strange kits become playable again like Taric and Poppy to name a few, BUT CLASS REWORKS holy goodness have those messed up time and time again.

Assassin reworks were to reduce the burst issue here, Kha'Zix is now running around one shotting people and soloing dragons with evolved q Rengar is get fed and one shot or starve, now getting gutted

The Mage rework was to "bring game health to mages"here

Malzahar has been booted to the support lane because of the voidlings focused changes and now because of competitive use will be gutted to a press R bot. Brand still viable mid, but has become a dominant damage support who can 1v2 a bot lane with one damage item. Zyra mid just got stabbed in the back more forcing her even further into the support role that a lot of her mains didn't want.

Look, I understand Riot is trying to update the game and bring healthy changes, and I think certain aspects of the reworks did well.

But my MAIN issue is they stated they were willing to revert the reworks if they did not work to their intended purpose, but have yet to revert any of the reworks. It's not bad that you mess up, we all make mistakes, but when you don't own up to it and admit it was the wrong decision is when it is unhealthy.

Malzahar mains are begging for a revert, zyra mains want to be viable mid again. History repeats itself for those who din't learn from it, Malzahar could be the next Mordekaiser or Kog'Maw.

Tl;Dr: Riot you're doing good things, but when you make a mistake admit it and revert the mistake.

Strongly seconding this

I actually don't mind the voidlings as a skill instead of a passive at all, but I would be 900% happier if Riot removed his current passive and in return gave him a ton of his damage back. I don't mind having to position better and be smarter to not get blown up when I all in someone. I just want to be able to viably play my favorite champion.
