[1.1.0] Malphite Guide - A rock solid guide

• Start out with a cloth armor:
- rush an early Bramble Vest if against a Fiora or Nasus;
- build up towards Iceborn Gauntlet otherwise. This item is core across these three builds I presented.

• Second item choice can be:
- Boots are situational:
> Tabis if they have lots of AA based;
> Mercs if they have CC.
The spell I take is teleport. Gargoyle doesn’t do that much for me!
- Sunfire Cape is a staple in my builds and I like the damage it adds to my combos, plus the wave clear.

• Bramble vest can be built whenever you want. If I am not against champions that have innate healing, I tend to build Bramble when I see Blade of the Ruined King or Bloodthirster being built.

• Abyssal Mask is nice if you want more power into your combos! And the eternity passive adds mana and hp.

• Adaptive Helm helps against heavy AP combo that relies on spamming as much as they can.

• Spirit Visage is also an option because of the shield boost but I rarely take. Highly suggested regardless if you need more MRES.

• Warmog’s is great because of the huge HP increase and it just complements the extra armor you get from W (you need to compensate high amounts of resistances with HP to be more efficient in tanking).
