[S13] WormMaW's guide for Malphite
Grasp build:
game duration: 42 minutes 10 seconds. final kda: 0/0/0
grasp 2963dmg 3290healing
shield bash 491dmg
conditioning 71% active 41 bonus armor 13 bonus magic resistance
overgrowth 344 bonus hp
manaflow 250b 2694 restored
transcendence 0
final stats:
4589 hp
1950 mana
total damage to champions: 33,099 total damage dealt: 281357
Sorcery build:
game duration: 47 minutes 42 seconds. final kda: 5/3/0 (one of my deaths could have been avoided, I died to tower after killing Garen under his tower)
arc 4136
manaflow 250bonus 4404restored
trans 5 seconds refunded
scorch 1530
biscuit 3 150 bonus mana
time warp 248 seconds hasted recovery from potions
immediate health restored 1273
immediate mana restored 787
final stats:
4404 hp
2100 mana
total damage to champions: 45,003, total damage dealt 316,927
So in my experiment with the Sorcery build I did almost 12k more dmg to Garen, and the comet and scorch combo alone did over 2.2k dmg more than the grasp + shield bash combo. The grasp build gave me almost 200 hp more health but does it matter much when you have over 4.4k health?
Do you ever start
If you started Doran's Shield would you skip
How do you typically combo your abilities in an all-in?
Thoughts on the
Do your rely on the waveclear from the AoE aspect of
No I don't consider Doran's shield being an answer in any cases. To be honest, recently I started to try running Corrupting potion instead of Doran's ring and it is pretty good as well (not sure if exactly better). It's more about playstyle against both Teemo or Veigar. You will have to play it safe and farm early on and sometimes you have to give up some cs, that's life. Malphite is situational pick, he shouldn't be considered as something that you should play in any case.
If you want to try different path for starting items - try Corrupting potion into Dark Seal and Sapphire Crystal on first shop. Or at least Dark Seal.
About all-in I usually go like R -> W -> AA -> Q -> AA -> E -> AA. You can probably swap E and Q order, but I like to have my target pinned down, in case that it decides to flash away or something (to keep my speed-up).
And yes, Iceborn Gauntlet waveclear is pretty important if you want to shove lane really fast and it should be more than enough to waveclear without maxing E. In some cases you don't really rush gauntlet - like against AP matchups. But there you are usually in pretty bad spot and you don't really want to push - just poke with Q and play it safe. Generally I never lacked ability to push wave fast when having Gauntlet, because the more armor you have, the bigger AoE is and later on you are going to have really huge splash there, so generally you are going to be able to shove wave of any size really fast.
I hope this sort-of helps and in case that you have additional questions or if I accidentally didn't exactly answer any of your questions, feel free to ask!

Thank you for the detailed response. It is quite helpful! I'll try starting corrupting potion in match-ups where I am likely to get poked a lot.

I switched back to starting
Also as you suggested I'm trying to not to blind pick
Thanks again for the useful content and feedback! :-)
