What are some tips for the Malphite vs. Mordekaiser matchup?

He is AP, and his abilities are hard to dodge as Malphite, but your Q can make it much easier to do that. Watch his passive; he cannot shield and heal your damage all the time.

A good Jax can make your early game hard. He can't do much against you if you use your Q and run away to get your passive back. Your E is very effective on him. Be careful of his all-ins, as his E will block your W, and this can hurt a lot. Put him down early and keep your foot on the gas.

Mordekaiser	Very Hard	373	47%	-606	-1,577	He is AP, and his abilities are hard to dodge as Malphite, but your Q can make it much easier to do that.

Fiora	Very Hard	341	52%	-81	-1,209	This is an interesting skill matchup. Purchasing an early Bramble Vest is key to denying her healing. Her true damage from vital procs can be lethal, so you must manage them by walking away to reset their position when they spawn unfavorably. She will try to parry your ultimate, so you may need to fake the cast to bait out her W. Be patient, and you will eventually out-muscle her.

Jayce	Hard	338	57%	-28	-541	He does a ton of damage and can push you to the ground. But you are an armor tank, so just relax and chill. Get Warden's Mail and Plated Steelcaps and watch the tables turn. Stay in XP range; he will deny you last hits, but relax and don't call for your jungler too much.

Riven	Not Favored	328	53%	+50	-554	A classic skill matchup. I changed the runes to Grasp for this matchup and max W to trade with her. Usually, you straight outscale her. Buy Warden's Mail early and beat her with Grasp. Bait out her E with your Q so your W hits harder.

Sylas	Very Hard	322	41%	-523	-1,245	He has your signature ultimate, and he is AP. This is very bad. You can almost not kill him since his W will heal for a brutal amount. This doesn't mean your poke won't stick, so go for it. He is mana-hungry and excels in longer fights, so keep the trades short.
