Cool story incoming: I tried out Malz this week (lvl 30 normals) and guess what? It just clicked. I'm serious, it's like I'm playing this guy since ever, there's not a single game where I sucked or was "meh", every single game has been "omghaxwtfnerfmalzplz". I never run out of mana, my burst and utility are awesome and I literally laugh out loud when I happen to double kill with my E when I'm already out of sight.

My last score was in a victory game: 9/1/16

Even when my team loses (random trolls, feeders, you know the drill), I always get more kills/assists than deaths, and mid lane is always mine. I played almost 20 games with him I think.

So now I'm saving up to 4800 IP to buy him and keep rocking mid with him, also since I'm usually the fighter/bruiser/solotop + ad carry kind of player and I need some more mid AP carry power.

I also understood he counters most AP carries mid easily.

Now that I know his strenghts, could you guys light me up on some weaknesses and counters? I know that QSS counters his ulti, but that's it, right? Is he viable in high ELO? Why does he seem so underrated? Any pro tips? Are his voidlings "controlable"? How?

TL;DR: Why don't people play more Malzahar? What are his problems and weaknesses?
