Tips for Playing as Malphite with Dr. Mundo
Despite his abilities scaling on Armor, some games require Malphite to get Magic Resist. When those games occur, try getting Aegis of the Legion, Mercury's Treads, and Guardian Angel.
Armor naturally reduces the rate that attacks go through Granite Shield, so Brutal Strikes will strengthen the shield against physical damage.

A well-timed Sadism can bait enemy champions into attacking you even when they lack the damage to finish you.
Spirit Visage will increase the healing done by your ultimate and lower cooldowns on all of your abilities.
