In overall I'm quite happy with the rework (besides the new third eye look - malzahar looks like retarded jax right now). However - his R in current form (PBE) is mistake. Dear RIOT, you were supposed to make a counterplay around this ult, make it less one click death sentence. Instead it was nerfed to eternity. Honestly his old W would have been more useful.. Its not that good against assassins - if they have QSS they mitigate almost all the damage much easier than before. There are complaints about lack of flat damage on ult which I think reasonable. For ult to have any effect you need to apply E + W combo first, which makes whole utl predictible to use. I think i have a solution for that.

I suggest following make it interact with Q so it can apply flat damage If the target is silenced by Q when R is casted it also applies some (like 200+ 0.6AP) flat damage over 2.5s time.

I would also limit the maximal amount of voidling on W to 3 and make them stronger.

Such change would:

  • give him a tool to deal with squishy targets quicker in some situations - he is supposed to be anti assassin after all
  • reward perfect plays
  • make ult more fun and rewarding

Please think about it.

Regards, Peter
