Strengths

A well-positioned
R
can singlehandedly win a teamfight.
Excels with items that enhance his tankiness, crowd control, and magic resistance.
His gank assist and teamfighting become much stronger after unlocking
R
.
Naturally counters AD champions and scales directly with how much Armor he has.
Q
counters champions with movespeed boosts, taking a chunk of the movespeed for himself.

Weaknesses

Forcing Malphite to use
R
defensively lowers his teamfighting potential since he won't have any playmaking capabilities.
Immobile (outside of using
R
to escape), leaving him vulnerable to ganks.
Struggles against magic damage-heavy compositions.
