GreenReapers says “Any Page viable. Proccing first strike can be rather awkward, because of his passive shield. D-shield can be a very good buy, if you want to trade with him aggressively. It basically negates his lvl 1 E damage, when it hits you, as it reprocs for every tick of it. Still, try not to get hit by it too much. Playing around Malzahar's passive is the major challenge in this matchup. It has a cooldown of 30/24/18/12 at lvl 1/6/11/16, so it will almost always have a longer cd than your W. By trading as soon or a few seconds after your W comes up, you keep the damage reduction down. This is important, as the shield also blocks your E slow and damage, making it harder to hit your q's. If you throw your combo too fast when the shield is up, all of the damage will get reduced by 90% so throw WE wait for the shield to expire and then throw your qs. Post 6 the matchup becomes very dependent on malzahars ultimate. He usually won´t be able to one shot you with one rotation of his spells. If you manage to proc his shield you should be able to perma engage him, even if you have to trade minions for the kill, as he will perma shove. Note, that his R is a great way to setup his jungler for ganks, so keep an eye on that and his Q silences, so you won't be able to use your shadows/damaging abilities for 1-2 seconds, if you get hit by it. Clearing his Voidlings robs him of a big portion of his damage. Late game becomes harder, as he will be able to basically oneshot you, with one Rotation, while you're supressed. Either get a qss, if you struggle getting it earlier works too, or wait for him to use it on a teammate before going in.”

Krmen says “He's not quite the threat early on but Level 6 it's over. You want to buy a QSS as soon as you can.”

EVEKING says “Shouldnt be a problem, just watch for his ult, the ult aint the most balanced thing in this game, if he ults you, expect your hp to get melted and you will only be able to look at him..”

Chikei says “Almost same as naafiri except he doesnt get affected by your E at first make sure you break his passive shield”
My Zoe Notes by Chikei | Zoe Player
Kazari says “余りにもプッシュが早い上にRでAll-Inによるキルを完全拒否出来るので、序盤から終盤まで常に脅威となる。 またEの感染が子犬から本体に飛んでくるのでレーン戦も基本的に不利。罹った子犬をミニオンに近づけてミニオンに感染させるとちょっとだけ楽になる. なおタワー下へのハラスはそれほど強くない。一応ファームは出来るので、レーン戦が終わってから対面のADCを分からせに行く事は出来る。”
sick204 says “Respect Malzahar's space control with his E and R, as they can deal significant damage over time and suppress Yasuo, respectively. Use Yasuo's E to dodge Malzahar's abilities and minimize damage taken. Be cautious of Malzahar's passive, which grants him a spell shield that blocks Yasuo's abilities if not popped beforehand. Engage on Malzahar when his abilities are on cooldown, as he can be vulnerable during these times. Consider building items like Quicksilver Sash or Mercurial Scimitar to cleanse Malzahar's suppress or magic resist items to mitigate his damage.”
14.10 YASUO BUILD MID by sick204 | Yasuo Player
otaliz says “Malzahar is one of the easiest matchups to play as Twisted Fate. Kill his Void Swarm to get more gold with your passive and stop him from push the wave. Just be careful with his ultimate, other than that, just farm, poke him and roaming a lot to win the game.”
Foxirion says “Malza’s crowd control and damage over time can be a major threat to Swain, as he can lock Swain down and whittle down his health over time.”
