Riot Stop Buffing Malphites Base Damage and Focus On His Tank Stats

Currently item 3147 item 3142 item 3071 item 3036 reduces Malphite teamfight presence to him ulting and dying shortly after due to his armour being negligible mid-late game. https://image.prntscr.com/image/9AiaBVymQyGNTjhsQ8Vcnw.png

I think you all should think about rewarding him with a passive shield which absorbs physical damage . Most Malphites don't take courage in the first place since it's essentially on a 2 min cd so I think it will be a good healthy way to reward Malph for landing good ults and help him survive a little after ulting. Malphite gains a shield which absorbs physical damage for 30% of his armour per champion hit with ultimate.

Also keep in mind Thornmail scales terribly now and this really just adds insult to injury to his already poor scaling since armour stacking is terrible except on Rammus.

i don't even know if malphite needs a buff tbh, i played him a lot during this month and always thought he was fine

then again i didn't try him since the thornmail nerf

I assumed that's just how Malphite works in general now since his ult is basically all he offers beyond some slows.
