https://i.imgur.com/so77AU0.jpg https://i.imgur.com/139cUi0.jpg hello boards I come bearing a question. how does one defeat the mighty malphite? the 251 armor 2 item 12th minute beast? based on the formula on the league of legends wiki: https://images.wikia.nocookie.net/__cb1521726775/leagueoflegends/images/math/4/8/1/4815fe484c2dd507d9bc962de2fff156.png by buying these 2 items, malphite negated 71% of my Attack Damage and still did more than enough damage to kill me. funniest thing was I was running conqueror but malphite was prepared! and really outplayed it by STANDING STILL AND TAKING ALL THE HITS LIKE THEY'RE NOTHING.

so please, Riot, Boards, I ask of you, how do I beat this magnificent creation?

a) he is designed to take AD damage. his weakness is magic damage. b) if you are using any of your hard hitting abilities while his passive is up, you deserve to lose.

Let me spell it out for you:

While his passive is up, the bonus armor from his W is three times as high. If you throw any AD Cooldowns at him during that time, its your own damn fault.

A champ that specializes in tanking attack damage managed to negate shit tons of AD?! Who would have thought...

With that build Malphie was very vulnerable to Diana ganks, but as we can see you rushed Tiamat, runing her chance to crap all over him.

Try playing Renekton against that champ. It's hilarious. I kill him 3 times back to back to back, and then he finishes sunfire cape + ninja tabi and my full enraged combo just barely deals enough damage to break his shield. Lmao. Oh and I was up 50 cs on him too.

Might have wanted to make his armor useless when you started seeing as he picked a super armor scaling champion item 3071 . then again you could have also went lifesteal and ignored his armor going for sustain drain tanking since he cant damage through your healing at all while it just takes you long to damage though his extra armor item 1053 plus healing w negates anything malphite can do.

dude, there is no way you win, just give up and roam at that point. when you have to start to submit to a tank its time to leave the lane because no matter what you do you will never win. The new rune is in a bad state, wait for it to become a universal bruiser rune because as it stands its only viable on Riven, Fiora and Darius

Wit's End would have helped rip through his passive. Early life steal would have easily negated his lv 1 Q harass.
