Malphite Guide

Key Insights
Malphite
W
's bonus armor is tripled while
Malphite
P
isn't broken.
Malphite
W
resets Malphite's auto attack.
Enemies hit by
Malphite
E
also have their attack speed reduced.
Malphite
R
's speed is increased by Malphite's bonus movespeed.
Strengths
Naturally counters AD champions and scales directly with how much Armor he has.
Malphite
Q
counters champions with movespeed boosts, taking a chunk of the movespeed for himself.
His gank assist and teamfighting become much stronger after unlocking
Malphite
R
.
A well-positioned
Malphite
R
can singlehandedly win a teamfight.
Synergizes well with
Iceborn Gauntlet
,
Randuin's Omen
,
Winter's Approach
,
Gargoyle Stoneplate
, and
Frozen Heart
. Can opt for
Sunfire Aegis
or
Turbo Chemtank
when needed.
Weaknesses
Struggles against magic damage-heavy compositions.
Immobile (outside of using
Malphite
R
to escape), leaving him vulnerable to ganks.
Forcing Malphite to use
Malphite
R
defensively lowers his teamfighting potential since he won't have any playmaking capabilities.
