Malzahar shares a mechanic with Teemo: Global Taunt.

It's a hidden passive: If you use malzahar over 1700 ELO, all team members will buy QSS. Gangplank is immune to this global taunt.

Altought it sucks for poor Malz, this global taunt can make the other team suffer as well, considering that item slot could be necessary to add necessary extra damage or deny a defensive item against a AD carry. All an All, it's a cool hidden passive. Riot really worked hard to place it.
