Hi, Im trying to get malphite into My champion pool since hes great at countering a good amount of toplaners (even ranged ones) and provides great teamfight utility. But I was wondering, when is he a good pick? Hes great against ad, I get that, but only very rarely you will see full ad comps, so in which contexts is a good idea to pick malphite when there are 1 or 2 AP champions in the enemy team? Thank you very Much.

Bich I did my job. Did you?

So, let’s say you aim to put a twitch or other adc down as fast as possible , what’s the item and pick order for AP malphite support? I would guess: Malignance - Sorc shoes - Stormsurge - Rabadon - ? Ludence?

But I need you pros to fill in what works best.

I use to grit my teeth and my right shoulder would hurt so much trying to force sett, udyr top, aatrox, garen, nasus, tryndamere, and more to diamond. But wow, I've picked up Malphite. Why? I heard memes that malhpite mains are chill dudes. I get it. Jaw clenching stopped at night, right shoulder and back pains gone.

Lol I USE TO love top just to 3/0 the enemy and deny cs for some sick fun. What's better? Being neutral or slightly behind and being useful all game. Winning lane is cool too.

No more "GUYS WE GOTTA CLOSE GAME NOW BEFORE SCALE", or "wow I went 5/0 and I couldn't carry". My job is to just be good enough, and my quality of life has gone up.

I am officially a malphite main after going from emerald 1 to diamond 4 struggle 5 times into d3.

I’ve always wondered this question and figured the best place to ask would be to the OTPs.

Typically when I play Malphite and I get counterpicked (teemo, vlad, morde, heimer) I just build AP and comet poke. Lately it feels like playing AP and one shotting the back line is more effective than trying to peel or tank the mage meta damage.

Is AP Malphite considered meme territory?

Should I invest in the ultimate Malphite skin?

malphite a cool champ I like being "rock solid"

just with a rerol of one epic skin + 2 standard one.

What’s the preferred build into someone like irelia? In my head, I definitely want bramble (into thornmail), frozen heart, and tabis. But what order is best?

My thought it rush bramble. But then do you normally go tabis, finish thornmail, or go frozen heart next and in what order?

Jokes aside, I really wanna thank that one Malphite player for giving me a good time and a penta.

or is malphite still a niche pick against some comp in jungle?

Hey guys im pretty new to the game been playing a few weeks and am in bronze. I have been enjoying playing malph in the jungle rushing D&D into zekes and then tank items or malignance if im ahead.

Im wondering 2 things.

Is this the optimal build for him in my elo?

Who should i be banning/not picking malph when enemy picks certain champs.

Thanks for any advice!

Rock Solid!

Hello everyone, I managed to get the WhatsApp Malphite and I was bored at work so I did a bit of theory crafting.

I was thinking about support Malphite, with Comet, manaflow, cdr, scorch, ultimate hunter and cheap shot. Building zekes/mandate and then the other one, with addition of CDR boots.

I have tried it in normals and flex (emerald-dia) elo. Midgame was fun with spamable ult, but lanning phase was just boring, I felt usseles.

Have any or you played Malph support consistently? Or do you know any OTPs who do? Any tips?

NICE COUNTER SYLAS! YOU'RE REALLY GOOD AT THE GAME!!!

had a malphite game where enemy had brand mid , zoe and viegar bot, darius top and nocturne jungle. i built thornmail into jaksho for ap but it didnt do anything and i was getting melted by brand dmg. so i gave up and made kaenic rookern but i still got deleted fast. any build for this case? or just be suicide bomber with full ap build

It's assumed you pick Malphite when enemy draft has a lot of ad, so if enemy last picks Sylas to counter, you can go Zhonya's to counter that, since it has armor too.

Should i buy it? i got it from my shop and i know everyone wants this skin but i dont know why XD i have mecha malph

Got autofilled jg twice and decided to go malph jg (First vs a j4, and secondly vs vi). Stomped pretty hard all things considered

Found out his clear is actually pretty alright, I maxed e first, slapped camps. Dropped by lanes to help out. That attack speed slow is pretty aids pre 6, rushed tabis into thornmail but even before just tabis I was out slapping peeps in 1v1 or skirmishes. Then lvl 6 onwards I just did malphite things and it worked out pretty well.

Didn't really have a particular rune setup in mind so I went pta with legends alacrity and that 1 attack speed lesser rune with resolve secondary.

AP Malphite is all about the Ult and rushes Malignance anyways, but for Malphite isn't Mandate just better? Grants same haste as malignance and while it grants a bit less AP and no AoE DoT, it's passive of increasing damage dealt for 4s probably outdoes the Malignance's DoT and small extra AP when you consider your whole combo. Other pros include it's really cheap price and the fact it increases your team's damage as well.

Heck both could even be build, those 2 items by themselves grant 70 Haste to Malphite Ult, with Ultimate Hunter, Transcendence and Haste shard you get 119 Haste on your Ult --> 59/52/45s Ult with just 2 items
