Why aren't more people playing Malphite?
He seems like the perfect answer for a juggernaut top lane meta and if Vayne/Jynx are popular picks why not pick someone who can reduce their attack speed by 50%?

Malphite is one of those champs that can't really carry most of the time in soloQ, they allow their teammates to carry them by setting up great plays.
Probably because he's very boring. same thing with soraka. raka and malph are really strong just so boring to play
With everything that everyone else said. Malphite has seen pro play. Which means the recognize that there is merit in playing Malphite in this meta. Even though Pretty much his only goal is to initiate the major team fight.
