Hextech Gunblade is a crucial core item. You can aim for burst damage with an Electrocute AP build or sustained damage with a Conqueror AD build. While her laning phase can be weak, snowball by securing kills with jungler synergy after level 3. Weave auto-attacks between skills for efficient damage. Pantheon is a strong counter, so be cautious. Team support and jungler synergy are vital; don't fall into the trap of thinking she's an 'easy win' champion.

Tip

Use your [Q] and [P] to get rid of Malzahar’s voidlings (W) quickly. It’s okay to use your [E] to close in and deal damage if you allowed Malzahar to get close before he reaches level 6. After he reaches level 6 though, Malzahar can turn the tables with his [R], so we recommend pushing lane quickly and go roaming.
