I'm going to address each of these "cons".

Single Target: Q has a large enough hitbox for me to usually hit 3 or 4 people and sometimes 5. W can hit every person.

High Cooldown: Get the CDR mastery Sorcery and blue buff, maybe a Deathfire grasp as a later item; that's 34% CDR, making your ultimate on a 50 second cooldown.

Channeled: Ok, yes that's a problem.

DoT: Problem? Not really. This allows Liandry's to proc for an extremely long time, it makes opponents underestimate your burst, and it allows you to literally "melt" faces off.

Being ulted by a Malzahar and not being very tanky is certain death. Unless, of course, he is terrible and doesn't know how to E a nearby minion, then Q->W->R for a voidling and the kill.
