Riot Games added Malphite to League of Legends on September 2, 2009. as such, he is one of the oldest champions in the game, and the epitome of old, single-class, champions.
However, before this champion gets a visual rework, which his in-game model sorely needs, some of the most fun parts of his gameplay are getting buffed in patch 12.19.
The buffs to AP Malphite in patch 12.19 are as follows:
- W - THUNDERCLAP
- Cone AoE Physical Damage: 15/25/35/45/55 (+ 20% AP) (+ 15% armor) ⇒ 15/25/35/45/55 (+ 30% AP) (+ 15% armor)
- R - UNSTOPPABLE FORCE
- Magic Damage: 200/300/400 (+ 80% AP) ⇒ 200/300/400 (+ 90% AP)
"Malphite is a rock. Rocks are nature. Nature is magical. Therefore, Malphite should be magical. We’re buffing AP Malphite so he has a bit of extra power to finish off opponents that somehow survive his ultimate."
Seeing how this year's World Championship is getting followed by the Ultra Rapid Fire game mode, aka URF, this is the perfect time for the resurgence of AP Malphite.
After all, there is nothing more satisfying than knowing you can ult one person as AP Malphite and still have it up for the next fight.
