didn't old malz ult do like twice the damage it does now? think i remember reading it was 250 + 130%AP level one

Yep, but it stopped if you sneezed at him.

he didn't bully the shit out of you bot lane, and midlane when he's good

malz has received nerfs to his W damage only in the past 6 years before his mage update (old W for reminder was dealing %hp damage in AOE) it made him killing tanks as a mage which didn't make sens

Could be worse. Remember the mage update. He was broken af until they nerfed the spell shield into the ground.

yea i remember not liking it back then either, i was pretty sure back then that passive would be his end

To me it was the Voildings that would be his end.

Heck the only thing I would like them to keep if they revert him is the shield. The old "cast x spells and it summons it" I never really used, noticed.

That's what separated the decent malz players from the great ones. Keeping track of your passive to maximize damage output or blocking a skillshot was the main gauge of skill with malz.

The extra damage it would give was hardly useable. Now if we get this passive back and it gains the multiply on enemies it hits...then it would give me a reason to master that old passive.

That would be cool. I'd rather have them build on his old passive than give him a spellshield passive that doesn't really fit his kit. It's just there to make him more durable

I do like the shield though..if we could keep that in some way that would be nice. Like...he gains it when he ults so it blocks the first CC? I did hate having it canceled right as I used it back in the day.

AD malz-voidlings are disposable adc's. Same amount of brains as silver level adc. you are a sadistic support.

Ap malz. Voidlings are disposable tanks, hurt like hell early, used to tank turret and block skill shots late.

Dont know how many games that knowledge won me.

imo old malz was a lot more unhealthy and uninteractive than rework malz. Once riot manages to actually balance malzahar correctly as he is, he will be far healthier and more interesting as a champion.

That's just my opinion though, I can see why a lot of people want the revert.

Whats balanced about a swarm of minions coming at you and taking half your health at level 1?

That is totally healthy.

a special oneFeb 9, 20172 votes

he was just as annoying before the rework. now he is much healthier

agbudarFeb 9, 20173 votes

no currently malz is opressive as fuk, even back then if you got fed you needed to be really careful when to ult and with your positioning. malz never did any real burst damage but dot damage mostly.

Gimme back my AD Malz jungle :'(

Ez dePazFeb 9, 20173 votes

Give it back, not a single champ plays as AD Malz Jungle did.

ModAcademy KaynFeb 9, 20171 votes

Ain't happening. Malz is the same case as Mordekaiser, where each were brick walls to have to go against in lane.

LEEROY KLEDKINSFeb 9, 20171 votes

Meanwhile as a twitch main on bot adc I'm crying my little bitch tears because i can't sneak around anymore unless im the jungler.

Twitch jungle is easier but the lane twitch is laughably bad now, W is a nice rework but isn't needed.

FuzzyLumpsFeb 9, 20171 votes

Either way he is op. No champion should have so much power in a point and click ability. Looking at you Veigar

IceKingChernobogFeb 9, 20171 votes

You're expecting riot to go back on their reworks and gasp admit it was a mistake?! They'll just nerf them to the point where they are worse then their pre reworked states.

Mordekaiser mains know this pain.
