I don't think he's overpowered, strong yes. But definitely not overpowered. I swear to god if Riot nerf's him before taking away Malzahar's new passive I'll scream.

I think he is a little overpowered personally, but only because of the amount he heals for and I feel he probably would need to get nerfed a little. Though I'll agree with you though, Malzahar is insane and needs some nerfs or something.

My personal 3 bans that I do every game right now is Malzahar Kindred Zed . Though some of my friends has had bad experiences and they'll usually ban Ekko Swain TahmKench Vladimir Udyr one of them sometimes, man we really need more bans...

My top choices at the moment are Malzahar Ekko Zed

I personally believe that Ekko is one of the most overpowered champions in the game right now. If those three are banned though I'll take out Volibear Jax Udyr

I think he is because of his flat regen... the fact that he has almost indefinite mana with item 3027 as you gain mana from taking damage, and get hp for spending mana... giving him healing and mana sustain without even factoring in the crow sustain on ult... Made worse by a simple item 3065 . And after you painstakingly widdle him down he takes item 3157 and comes out almost full... I just don't get the idea of how he can sustain while zhonias'd... And he has 3 other abilities and 4 other teammates, and that is not fun or very fair to play against.

I agree, but then again that's the whole base of his kit. We could talk about Garen with Warmogs the same way. I do believe some of his numbers should be scaled back a bit but not until they do more about some of the other champs in this game. This is the first time Swain has had a decent win rate in a long time. Riot needs to focus on people like Ekko and Malz first.

I am all for him being a decent pick, but not when he has a 60+% WINRATE in some respects. But the fact tooo that the new RoA buffers his ults weakness, mana. And when 4 people, 2 of which have an executioners calling to cut his sustain, he still sustains through it while being underfed himself... I just don't like the logic of a 1 man sustainer that by themself can stop an entire team when not fed...
