The Batting Cages

The biggest thing for Malz is probably learning the timing on your silence. It does a significant amount of damage, but is a really wonky skill-shot to learn. Other than that, just be judicious about the placement of your pool and the timing of your ultimate. If you know someone has a stun, don't drop it unless you've seen them burn the cooldown.

One thing to be especially careful about it trying to ult someone with a stun. If you run at a Sion and ult him and he gets his stun cast before getting suppressed, the travel time will mean you get about one tick of damage before being stunned out of the ult. Super gay.

Also, early game, if you drop your pool and someone walks off of it before you ult them on top of it, don't just ult anyway. Wait the 12 seconds and try it again for your full combo. Suppressing them on top of that % health damage is huge.

Ignite works wonders with Malz. You CAN pop Ignite while channeling your ult without canceling.

The best thing you can do is lead in with your silence. Silence the guy you want to ult, then put your pool down > ult > ignite. If you CAN try to pop E on him too (BEFORE you pop ult). That'll just damn near anything.
