Malphite buffs on the table (source s@20): This is one of the best things that toplane malphite could happen. Now you don't autopush when you skill a point in W. More AP ratios are great because now you make better use of RoA and other tanky ap items. You will loose 10% Armor in early trades, but it's better in extended fights and against ranged physicle poke. While the change kills AD-Malphite i'm not disapointed about it. The new skill has way more synergy with Tank and AP-Malph.
 * Brutal Strikes (W):
 *  Passive Changed : Malphite gains 10/15/20/25/30% additional armor from [Basic Attacks gain 30/38/46/54/62% splash damage]
 *  Active Changed : Basic attacks deal an additional 25/40/55/70/85 (+15%AP) physical damage to the target and nearby units from [Malphite gains additional armor and attack damage (20/25/30/35/40)]

As jungler i'm not sure how it effects his clearspeed. While the aditional base dmg is better then the old 20% more AD, you will loose AOE dmg when it is on cd.
