I have still had some success with Malzahar, but not nearly as much as before. They really kicked him in the knees with the reworking they did. I miss the skill he had in place of the Void Swarm skill. It was useful. Now I've turned to using Morgana, Lux, and and some others as my mid laners instead. Morgana's W ability works in a similar (not exactly the same) way as Malz's old W ability did. I would use Call Of The Void to hurt them, then ignite, use the old W ability (it's name eludes me, but it opened a circle of darkness on the ground and drained health pretty well), then Malefic Visions, and  finally his ult. They'd be stuck in that circle with damage from Call Of The Void, Malefic Visions hurting them, the old W skill draining them, ignite burning away, and his ult eating them up. So the way I used him with that combo and the item set I used, he could even destroy tanks with the combo! I didn't see it as OP. After all, I had to have all my skills ready to use, as well as ignite! That and it would affect only one champion. So if another champ came across me right when I killed their teammate, they would find me without any skills to defend myself with (I'd have to flash away and hope they weren't fast enough to catch me, or didn't have long range abilities that would hit me like Ashe and Lux's ultimates. If so, I'd get hurt bad, or die, since I focused on AP buillding, without much defense or HP. Meh, I enjoy Morgana and others now, so it's fine. They just messed up a good champ that some people really enjoyed, that's all.
