Good info and nice build setup for surviving.
The thing is, I've heard that Hextech Revolver and Will of Ancients doesn't work well on Malzahar because his skills (all DoTs and AoEs) only receive 33% of any Spell Vamp he has. Essentially what that means is, with Hextech Revolver, he only gets 5% Spell Vamp as opposed to 15%, barely healing him for anything.
I would consider Rylai's over Will of Ancients and getting tear of Goddess early on so you have a ton of mana at your disposal mid-game and have no desire for Golem Buff every 5 minutes.

Nice.
You should add me. We should play.
Fo sho.
One suggestion though, I dont find the mastery Greed to be very good. A little math: 1 gold every 10s. In 30 minutes, that's 1800 seconds. Divide that by 10 and you have 180 10-second periods. So in the average 30 minute game, you only gain 180 gold out of this mastery, which is comparable to killing ~8 or 9 creeps. I think you'd be better off putting that extra one into Expanded Mind, Good Hands, or the ignite one.
