Any tips for beating Malthael as a Wizard on high difficulty levels?

I'm playing solo as a hardcore Wizard on Torment IX, running Tal Rasha's with dual hydras. Usually when I encounter hard boss fights with melee bosses, I'm forced to kite and rely on my hydras + meteors to do the damage - and it works fine.

Malthael, however, is one of my hardest fights, especially in the 2nd stage of the fight, when he turns into a whirling thing and chases me around. He moves about as fast as I can run, the floor is full of bad things, and I can't teleport frequently enough to evade all that.

I just increased difficulty to Torment X and I'm fearful about approaching that fight. Any tips?

Basic strategy I used for dealing with Malthael was this:

Activate the Wolf Companion active buff as soon as it came off cooldown.

Act 1 - New Tristram The first major boss encounter in Diablo 3 shouldn't present you with too much of a problem, but the mad king's still capable of cracking a few unprepared skulls. By combining skeletal summons with a handful of deadly melee attacks, he can catch you off-guard at higher difficulty levels.
