Thornmail Malphite ARAM How to play
- How this build is different to regular tank build? Item order and who is on enemy team. If they are heavy AP - just play regular tank (switch mid-game).
- Wait for your Passive to be up, before engaging or going in and to prevent poke.
- This build is aimed to counter AD comps. Since you don't know enemy team, you need to adapt in game. It is hit or miss.
- You don't need boots for this build. You have good mobility - Q for speed, Snowball/Ult for reach.
- Dont rush your mythic.
- Enemy team heavy on AP? Buy MR. They heavy on AD? Buy Armor. You need some damage? Well buy that.
- Remember to consume your Grasp of the Undying procs!
Thornmail Malphite Tips and Tricks
Riot
- Armor naturally reduces the rate that attacks go through Granite Shield, so Brutal Strikes will strengthen the shield against physical damage.
- Despite his abilities scaling on Armor, some games require Malphite to get Magic Resist. When those games occur, try getting Aegis of the Legion, Mercury's Treads, and Guardian Angel.
