Kass also has much more of an assassin playstyle than malz.

I will agree with that. You make a good point. However, Kass had three things going for him: Silence, Damage, and mobility.

While I understand that all three of these together we downright (darius) OP. Riot took all three aspects and nerfed it all. I have loved and played Kass since playing this game 4 years ago. Since he major nerfs he has been in a horrible spot.

Kass (and Leblanc) had their Silence removed because it was point-and-click.

Malz's Q is a skill shot that can miss/be avoided.

Soraka x Malzahar Silence OTP

:P They have silence due to their disruptive nature, whereas Kassadin and LeBlanc are far more "Assassin" Centric.

Malzahar's Silence is heavily telegraphed, difficult to aim, has a long start-up time, and has a lot of in-built counterplay that makes it a pretty balanced skill.

Kassadin's Silence prevented champions form responding with abilities or summoner spells the moment he jumped on top of them for an assassination, removing any real counterplay in that situation.

I thought this was going to be a Graves Cigar joke. I'm a little disappointed.

They're going to have to be careful with the damage numbers or malz may become pick/ban since now he can just walts into a teamfight and start ulting uninterrupted for a few seconds... also the fact that they combined his ulti and old w... I do love the summon voidling thing tho :)
