This is contrasting evidence that he is worse when playing synergisticly with Ahri.

Ahri has a greater difficulty than Malphite. That means Malphite players need to be very careful when finding Ahri teammates to go into battle on the same side as, as they will require a greater level of skill to be able to fight well with you.
Working alongside, Malphite players should expect to observe an overall large increase in your team’s capacity to deal magical damage. Together, these champions are able to dish out a surprising amount of magic type damage.
In contrast, by aligning Malphite and Ahri together, you probably will not be granting your side a lot of sustained damage output. Plan to include other champs on your team that helps cover this relative gap in this pairing's potential.
Regardless of the skill of your Ahri teammate, you should focus on maximizing your gold income, staying alive by avoiding foolish fights, and clearing objectives. If you do this, you will do well anyway.
