He is arguably the best duelist in the game so it makes sense not to go against him alone right?

While a lot of his spells are point click his Q isn't and it's a pretty awkward skillshot to land and his range isn't great.

He mightn't have much counter play if you go in 1vs1 but let's take LeBlanc and Kassadin for example they got their silence removed because they had no counter play. The difference is: Malzahar's Q is a skillshot that can be avoided. Hes relatively short ranged and doesn't have any escapes or engages. It takes him more time to get a kill. Those are probably some of the main reasons he isn't getting nerfs and IMO he doesn't really need any nerfs.
