Not only the cooldown got nerfed tho. The old Null Zone had a "base damage" of 30% max HP when maxed and had a 5% per 100 AP scaling on it, while it now has a 20% max HP base and a 2% per 100 AP scaling. The continuous nerfs to Malzahar made him really weak. The only thing that keeps him stable as a champion is the nature of his ult (ranged point'n'click surpression) and his reliable push. But he can't really do anything on his own anymore. His damage, his Voidlings and everything around it has been nerfes so heavily that he demoted to an ult bot who just sits in lane and waits for his jungler to gank him once he has his ult unlocked.
