The Scaling Codex · late-game grade
Does Malzahar scale?
CBad lateat full build, coordinated fights
Not really. Malzahar falls off late; close the game before it gets there.
Bad late once enemies hold QSS or Banshee's Veil.
The grade measures one thing: how much a champion can influence a coordinated late-game objective fight once both teams reach full builds. It does not measure early strength, snowballing, or win rate. A weak late-game champion still wins by ending the game first, which is what the rest of the library teaches.
