I'm just pointing out some discrepancies I see, because Meddler explicitly stated that they want reworked Malz to both feel familiar and remain rather simple.

Your rework idea is very far from that stated goal. Very far.

Don't misunderstand. It's not a bad rework. I like these spells. I'm not crazy about the passive. But the spells themselves would be great for a champ that micromanages pets. Something like Furion or Lycan. It's a mechanic I would enjoy but I think Riot wants to stay away from.
