Even if you are equally fed as everyone else Q and E will drop a squishy below half health.

Yes a lot of Malzahar's power at dueling comes from his ability to suppress the enemy but it seems people forget that he has a silence aswell.

GENERALLY an AP doesn't buy QSS. But let's just say an AD caster (like zed or talon) bought QSS. If they tried to approach me I could use Q and E. So now they're taking a lot of damage and are silenced what can someone like Zed do to me when silenced? He could use QSS and then get killed by my ult or else has to actually back away. This is what I mean by baiting rather than throwing all your spells at once. But again it depends on who outplays who since you must try land your Q which is an awkward enough skillshot to land.
