All it take to kill squishy special adc is one Q and R , nothing else cause riot love to pump up the stupid ap ratio on tankers while their in build kit allow them to be abit tanky.

Infernape8 votesIf Malphite builds AP he is no longer a tank, he is a mage. His base stats will only carry him so far.
IcyPepper1 votesAt best you could go bruiser.

He need 3 ap items and then he is good to kill your squishy, other wise he won't be that mage.
Sirsir4 votesHe still onehits with no chance at counterplay, aside from staying out of flash/ult range. Unless you invest in multiple MR items which most damage classes can't afford to do
Pachyderm4 votesYour match history says you're an unrepentant ARAM player. Any semblance of team balance is lost in that mode, so I can see why someone like Malphite might be frustrating. On Summoner's Rift, a lot of the games are closing out in the first half hour now, so Malph doesn't really have time to slip a couple of defensive items into his build without sacrificing the AP he so desperately needs to be a true caster.
I may be wrong, though. I haven't seen him played much lately, so his kit could be entirely different than I'm remembering it.

Still a good malp would annoy you early with his q poke with good ap ratio and it annoying, special if he want to cheese early game.
Dracocrash1 votesthe mana cost on malphite Q is too high early game to spam, he is also melee, and if he maxes Q he has no waveclear, so you can work around that. his ult is his only kill pressure, and if you manage to survive it, (using zhonya,flash,any MR item) you can punish him.
But if you let him get ahead, and he one shots you with QE auto, thats on you.
and if hes building AP hes pretty easy to burst.

+ boots (prob 
)?
ValiantKiller1 votesJust build both?
Still that is the problem he can be tanky and do alot of damage due to his ap ratio in this meta
Dracocrash1 votesI would highly suggest you play AP malph a couple of times to understand his weakness and strenghts, it will help you immensly when you play against him.
