Learn how to Malphite counter with these essential tips.
Tags:
All
Poke Malphite regularly to prevent his passive shield from refreshing — this shield (10% of his max health) provides significant protection and triples his W armor bonus.
Basic Lane Phase
Spread out during team fights instead of grouping tightly — this makes it impossible for Malphite to land multi-champion knockups with his R.
Basic Team Fight
Trade aggressively in the early game before Malphite gets items — he's significantly weaker during this phase and susceptible to being set behind.
Lane Phase
Be cautious of ganks once Malphite reaches level 6 — his ultimate provides excellent gank setup with guaranteed crowd control.
Lane Phase
Stay at medium distance in lane when possible — his E (Ground Slam) has a short 400 unit radius, allowing you to avoid its attack speed reduction.
Lane Phase
Take advantage of windows when Malphite's ultimate is on cooldown — without his R, he has limited engage potential and is much less threatening.
Team Fight Skirmish
Poke Malphite before objective fights to force him to engage at lower health — this reduces his tankiness and can force him to retreat.
Team Fight
Fight Malphite in open lanes rather than narrow jungle paths — confined spaces make it easier for him to hit multiple targets with his ultimate.
Team Fight
After Malphite uses his W (Thunderclap), disengage for 5 seconds if possible — during this time, his auto attacks deal bonus physical damage in a cone formation.
