Unpopular statement: I CRINGE at the Malzahar cries

Darth Sidiouss··2 votes·474 views

Your literally crying over a champion whose self purpose is to root someone for eternity with no counter play but item 3140 which is costly and delays desired items. There's nothing mechanically there for him to be shined at. A NASA chimpanzee can pilot him. He is basically the genesis of the term "cancer" in league of legends. I dont see any positive longevity value for this game in satisfying someone who gets off at pressing R to kill someone. There's nothing interesting to look at or talk about. He can have an interesting lore and stuff but honestly his kit is among the most toxic due to the simplicity and impacted results of his gameplay.

You can raise your pitchforks at riot for his current state but for the people who generally dont like him. They can bluntly agree the game itself does not need a champion with a kit like his.

You can read the hate in the context but honestly how can you respect a champion that literally takes no SKILL to play.

His rework didn't even fix or change any of the things people take issue with in his kit, though.

In fact, it just compounded several of his flaws and gotten him nerfed like... 16 or so times since his rework. Most of said nerfs being on his W.

People aren't complaining that he got reworked. They're complaining that he got reworked poorly.

Like a WW ulti, you can knock him out of it, that's counterplay.

But neither of those can be countered by anyone hit, which is almost as bad as not interruptible at all. Just being honest.

Instead of playing Eve 11 times out of the last 11 games, Lets see how long you stay Gold playing only Malzahar for a month... since its so damn easy, you should be up at least 2 ranks right?

Your literally crying

"You're" is what you were likely looking for here.

No one is LITERALLY crying.

I, however, LITERALLY stopped reading at this point.

Sadly, "literally" has become a contronym.

It can be used as a synonym of "figuratively" in informal contexts.

woah

is this an unpopular opinion thread that's actually slightly controversial, instead of being a rewording of a popular opinion?

item 3140 is much less than Zhonya item 3157 and QSS builds into item 3139 which has tons of AD.

Additionally, item 3140 also breaks Malzahar's Ultimate Damage. No other champ loses their damage from QSS. It is broken on malz after the rework and still is not fixed.
