Why is riot making sure that there's absoultely no counterplay to malzahar?

They are making malzahar immune to cc too. Now it's impossible to do anything to him. Once he ults you are dead.

Edit: I haven't played against him on this patch yet, so i thought he would be super op.

how? ive always had trouble against him or even when he's in a different lane. All he has to do is e qw and ignite and with deathfires touch, you are dead.

That sounds like hes been horribly fed or youre not playing on the current patch.... because you start W, then E, then Q when E is about to run out. and this is assuming malz has raylais and you have no allies around or flash up.

With what damage? His voidlings do VERY little damage unless theyre stacked up; and the ult is only 25% max health (mitigated by magic resist). Essentially its a 2.5 second stun. If there are no team mates nearby to capitalize on it, you run away scott free because his E only lasts 4 seconds and the voidlings have lots of problems hitting moving targets due to no longer attacking malzahars targets via AAs.

Play him as support, he does way better down there. you're basically a walking stun bot

he is not immune to cc he just negates the first attck against him if its a cc then you are bad at this game . all u have 2 do is aa him and its gone. its just a abilty that makes it so when he ulti you the first damage dont break it. Its not really all that good against anyone with a brain hell i played him in a bot game and they could figure out to aa him first then use cc and he dies really easy

They gutted his damage to give him that passive.
