Tips for Playing as Malphite with Lissandra
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.
Advice to Understand How Lissandra Will Play

Casting Glacial Path and then running in the opposite direction will leave your enemies uncertain which way you will actually go.
You can instantly use your ultimate on yourself by pressing the self cast key and the ultimate key at once (alt+R by default).
