Basically Champs that depend on AA to dish out damage mainly are countered by Malph. Meaning, Caster types have a piss easy time against Malph. But then again there are those Hybrid types that deal damage from 2 diff sources or are both AA and Caster types. Elise is definitely a viable and solid counter to Malph since her Human Form wears down Malph and can finish him off with her Spider Form. Even with his E, he can't outlast Elise's AS steroid which lasts just as long, nullifyin his AS reduction completely.

Other prominent counters to him will be Champs with a variety of CC, able to bypass his Armor affinity or disruptive moves. Yorick, Irelia and Kayle are examples. Yorick can harrass wiht his spell casts from afar, Irelia can deal True Damage and can slow, as well as stun if things get dicey, Kayle can just neutralise Malph by kiting him and even slowing him down should he come and try to slow her. Not to mention her Innate shreds a good portion of his total Armor and MR, allowing Kayle to come out on top in overcommited fights.

I do believe Rumble could be a good counter to him, but only if he is on the constant offence.
