Lets talk about Malzahar reworked

First of all these are just my two-cents thought on malzahar as someone who used to love playing him pre-reworked . If you dont agree with anything said please feel free to comment on why.

Honestly since this 'mage' rework i feel malzahar is less of a mage and more of the long-lost brother of . They both and exxtremely annoying to fight againts in lane. It feels much more rewarding playing him as an ad champion instead of ap, with all his ap ratios lowered. I feel his kit right now is completely reliant on his W to dish out damage. Before rework malzahar was a championed to be reckoned with due to his E. In teamfights i would actually have to think about on whom i should cast my E on in order to maximize its effect. Now i feel like im simply casting my E just so my voidlings aim that guy. The damage done by the E itself seems unnoticable compared to the voidlings. No longer to - or - combos have any significant effect like they used to before. His E has become from one of his iconic and feared skills to simply a "oh my e hit a champion time to cast w".

I used to love malzahar simply because of what his E could do. Sometimes i die but continue to function because i had managed to place an E on a dying enemy. It used to feel extremely rewarding when enemies were foolish enough to try last-hit a minion when their minions were only a Q away from dying and passing on the vision. Now i feel like my E means nothing compared to my W. I feel like Malzahars identity as a DoT mage has turned into a ad caster. It no longer feels rewarding to get ap as my voidlings deal most of the damage anyways. i Think this is a serious problem and definitely what Rito did not have in mind for this mage update. Please rethink the current state of malzahar as by the looks of it not many people are enjoying him at all now.
