The ratios and base damage on his abilities are just delicious. Seriously, there's nothing more refreshing than throwing your E on you lane matchup and see him drop to 50% hp, LMAO.

The only change he needs in order to be considered a tier 1 pick is a mechanic change on his ult: instead of locking himself and the enemy champion in place he instead would have a tether with the ult's range on the target (similar to Nocturne's E) and Malzahar would be able to move in a circumference around it, immediately breaking the supression if he walked out of the 700 range. This would allow Malzahar to reposition himself to a more favourable location after ulting. If this happened I would seriously consider Malzahar as my instalock champion.
