Well i maybie LV27 *smurf* but iv been maining Malzahar from the end of Season 3 and playing League of Legends scince Season 2.Mid lane ownage!Hope u find this guide usefull!

Pros:
-80% AP Ratio Q,W 130% R
-Loot of AoE Damage and an AoE Silence
-Great at Farming
-Burst their carries like a fly...
-Great Defencevi Power for a Mage
-Great Poke
Cons:
-No escape tactics or chasing tactics
-I got nothing else for cons...

-Flash for escape
-I can recomend Ignite but i mostly take Barier for countering any trade while landing my combo
-So if u want Ignite is a GREAT option for Malzahar but u will trade the extra survavybiliti for it.

Well early on it is very easy to horas your oponent,farm minions with rank 3 malefic visions and try to get our Voidling up and Runing,when u got blue buff dont be afraid to spam out some of your spells to get the voidling up.When the Malefic Vision bounce gets our oponent low enough,go in with Q and if it lands Flash(if necesary) W-E-R,U will have the Voidling dealing a loot of extra damage if u get it up with this combo!It is a 99,00% kill and if u have ignite it is 99,99% a kill!
In teamfights focus their ADC quickly with and leet our teamamtes know when u are about to do it,if their APC is dealing too much damage try landing Q specificly on him but if he isn much of a threat just try focusing the ADC,landing E on dying enemy targets,landing Q on as many people as possible and BURSTING THE HELL OUT OF THE ENEMY TEAM.

-thats about it for tips-

Malzahars real power is demonstrated aginst an Enemy ADC,especialy while the ADC is still focusing on getting AD before defence.
-Once my bot lane was feeding,in a ranked game,desperatly,i won my lane and taken the first tower,their ADC was 12-0 and have gotten the bottom outer turret,but with my incredible burst i have roamed to bottom and helped out quite a few times ot get our Twich up and runing to around 10-8 or 12-8 not realy sure,and i have evened the score bottom lane helping us win the game.
-Incredible ratios,even dough in one of my games the enemy Jinx was feed and we were loosing but i was able to cary out the game(Q,E on jinx and she is dead,the same thing was with their Janna and Synda that were too defencless)
-Same as the above with Jinx but it was a Quin with 28kills(but it was a normall game).Carried out the game just by alway focusing all my damage to their ADC.The rest of their team was underfeed and once agin i secured the win!

Thanks for reading this guide to Malzahar and i hope u found this guide useful.
StarFlyer out!
