Not sure about his situation in 2010 when he was released, but only an utter moron would call him bad now since he's one of the casters who rapes the most - up there with Ryze and Anivia, except I don't really like Anivia personally.

Just get used to the fact that you have no self healing (like Vlad or Swain) and that you have no escapes (apart from any summoner spells you bring) and that in a bad situation your ult will get cancelled early. In return you get idiotic amount of damage that will even melt tanks like they're made of butter, one of the best caster AP ratios and Malz is simply put a complete baws in his lane - I can't think of any character at the top of my head that can really ruin Malz day in mid.
