Confidence mediumUpdated Jun 10, 2026

Overview

Use high mobility and burst to disrupt Malzahar's push and punish cooldowns early.
Deny Malzahar lane control by killing Voidlings and forcing him under tower.
Focus on short trades and avoid extended fights before level 3 power spike.

Trading pattern

Engage with (Q) followed by (W) damage, then use (E) to dodge silence or suppression.
Step up for trades when (Q) silence and (R) suppression are on cooldown.
Avoid trading when Malzahar's spell shield is active; wait for it to expire before engaging.

Danger windows

High risk at level 6 when (R) suppression can lock you down.
Avoid reckless (E) usage early to prevent being caught by Malzahar's silence or suppression.
Respect Malzahar's spell shield timing; it blocks your initial damage and disables trades.

Kill Malzahar's Voidlings quickly to reduce his push pressure and create lane windows.
Use level 3 unlock to engage with (Q), (W), and (E) for burst and safe disengage.

Power spikes

Level 3 unlocks your full trade combo with engage, burst, and escape tools.
Level 6 grants your (R) for kill threat; time all-ins around this ultimate.
First completed AP assassin item boosts burst damage and trade reliability significantly.

Win conditions

Use mobility and burst to punish Malzahar's cooldowns and deny lane push before level 6.
Execute level 6 all-ins by landing (R) and following with full combo while dodging lockdown with (E).
Control wave by killing Voidlings to limit Malzahar's map presence and roam potential.
