Karthus wants:
to be in the middle of fights
to do all the damage
to have a team that can keep people near his dead body while he continues to destroy things

don't pick karthus if: your team has little cc and/or no AoE cc; your team already has a good cleanup character; your team has a source of sustained magic damage

ofc, this is just imoimoimo

We won every single teamfight. It was just hilarious how desperate they were to try to gib me at all costs.

I have been going Boots of Swiftness on Ashe for like forever. But that's mostly because I spam Volley with Ghostblade+Brutalizer and also run Ghost+Cleanse. Zerkers and Mercs just aren't very useful for that, and the increased movespeed helps with kiting, escaping, and getting into positions where you can hit more enemies with Volley.

I have been playing Eve for the last few days (or weeks?), and I for sure feel like I have a global passive taunt on her.

sometimes in solo queue no one wants to jungle and doesn't let you know until it's their turn to pick and you're sitting with 2 solo laners, 2 side laners and they insta-lock Morde or some shit. I never used to pick Panth with the intention to jungle back when he was a playable champion, but sometimes I'd have to audible into jungling and the point is that it's not the end of the world.

in other news, I actually got to play a Pantheon game last night and Malphite was our jungler, lol. We won very easily.

isn't your solo queue like 1000?

yeah i've been doing a lot of thinking and regardless of malphite's jungling ability (as well as pantheon and other lane dominators) i'd rather have 2 duo lanes than waste malphite's laning ability. last night i had a game where i took malph second pick and alt-tabbed and when i came back to the game it had started and we had no jungler so instead of jungling i just duo laned with teemo. we held ashe to 3 levels below us at all times and she maxed out at 4 cs. when their jungler came to gank we got a double kill, because what is a level 2 ashe going to do to a level 5 malphite?? she jumped out to help rammus and we insta gibbed her and then just turned on rammus and stole his buffs. seriously, having a junger is overrated***

***edit having a jungler is overrated when you can just take 5 dominant laners instead

Malph has one of the fastest and strongest jungles in the game. "Waste" my ass.

The only reasons why he didn't see play for a long time are because there were like 6 months when no one took physical DPS and because his ult was bugged and had shit duration (compared to the alternatives).

ya this^

nobody discovered malphite's laning or w/e they just fixed his ult finally. that and people started playing dps again. this is why you cant just buff characters like nidalee or pantheon(lol) or whatever on a whim because their time to shine will probably come eventually.
