Why are the malphite changes no longer on the pbe? They were fantastic and something that he really needed to get.

The Thursday or Friday before a patch they pull all the changes that aren't going into the full patch the following week, then bring them back. Balance stuff usually sticks but big experimental changes like the Malphite or Wukong reworks are on PBE for multiple patches to make sure they don't have bugs, are actually what the mains want, and aren't disgustingly OP. Seems like people liked them though, so they should be back this week when the new PBE cycle starts.

are actually what the mains want,

Not really a factor. Or aatrox wouldn't have happened

Aatrox isn't a small gameplay rework, it was a full VGU. Not really the same thing.

might be, but shaco would have been reverted if main opinions mattered

Yes because when playing vs an ap malphite cheeser, I'm saying I really wish these qs were faster and slowed me more.

I’m not talking about ap malphite. I could care less about the q changes because they didn’t lower the mana cost so I don’t use it on tank malphite. I liked the w rework and the e buff because it helped out tank malphite much more.
