How to play it

✓

Respect W max

If he maxes W with a brain you simply lose the 1v1: this is the one build that turns an easy lane nearly unwinnable, so stop trading and farm.

✓

Read his max order

Check his skill order early: a smart W max means scale and don't fight, while a comet + Q max poke build is very manageable.

✓

Rush Tear vs poke

Into the comet + Q-max version, buy Tear of the Goddess early and play bruiser into his tank: that build gives him no real all-in on you.

✕

Never try to out-trade a W-max Malphite: that single build turns this easy lane nearly unwinnable, so farm and scale instead.
