Sup peeps,
this is my second guide, be sure to check out my cho guide ;D
as i was sifting through Moba I was sifting through some of the higher rated Malphite builds, i noticed that alot of them were pretty similar, and lacked any builds that stand out. Despite the guide name this build will not auto grant you immortality with malph, but you could get pretty close if you play him right ;D this requires skill craft and you have to be able to adapt to certain situations as tank. this is just a general build that would get you by pretty smoothly against a balanced to semi-balanced enemy team.

Pros
passive makes him difficult to kill, and almost immune to harass early game, giving you a strong lane presence.
Has abilities that scale from armor, thus making him a quite viable tank with deceptively strong E ablility
Good farmer
good harasser

cons
if you use your ult to engage in the wrong situation, your dead.
low mana pool
low starting magic res. for a tank.

it looks tanky but his skills scale from armor.
this build is more of a duelist build, use this build if you plan on being the carry killer (ashe yi cait ect)
this is not tank
i repeat
first build is the tank build
if you try to tank with this one you will be torn to shreds by casters

thanks for reading my guide! its not perfect but it should do for a decently experienced malphite player.
check out my cho build!!!
PLEASE VOTE
also, being a tank takes some experience, and you have to know what items to buy for the right situations.
