You need crit on any physical carry dps. I didnt say go for 100% damage (like pantheon) but i would rather go for mix of damage/crit and end up with 50-60% crit and about 100-150 more +damage.
You realy dont NEED to have 100% crit rate. With good amount of AD you can 2 shot most non-tank chars with BS.
BS Acrivate->Ulti->Melee in mid air->Ground Slam->Melee on landing (Should be dead by this point if no->Seismic Shard->Melee.

With Crit based malphie you need more melees from my observations.

Crit Malphite hmmm... tbh this has no synergy with the char imho.

If you go dps Malphie you focus on brutal strikes right?
Brutal strikes have great synergy with +damage (B.F. Swords?) items.
You are not Gankplank or Tryndamere to benefit from crit that much.

Also no lifesteal is questionable. His brutal strike swipes also benefits from lifesteal, witch makes you gain 1/2 of hp in 1 melee swing in late game on a good wave of mobs and i think that way is better than waiting for warmog to replenish that health.

You do have a bit of a point. I have found that it's best to get B.F. Sword after Zeal but before Phantom Dancer as it really helps your damage output. However with the near 100% crits I usually hit for 700(1000 in really long games) with Brutal Strikes. As far as NO synergy I don't know if I agree because the main ability that makes him a great DPS also indirectly effects critical damage. But honestly as this is the only effective Damage based build I've played with Mal, I can't say if it's better or worse then going straight damage instead of crit%. I do agree with you on life steal though, I've tried using Executioner's Calling(for the extra crit rate) and Stark's Fervor.

I play a Shard-focus harasser tank Malph build, but I've been thinking I need to try a more melee DPS build on him, because I saw the benefits of Brutal Strikes for that.

A lot of your ideas fall in line with mine, so I'll most definitely have to check it out. Thumbs up :D

If I'm completely honest, I've only played 21 with Mal. However in(on of the few, thank you matchmaking)roughly even teamed matches I had after I'd made this build I went 13/6/15.
