well, hes honestly in a decent spot if you know how to play him and survive lane phase. so hes playable and reasonably viable but not exactly strong

Faker fed in lane vs Fizz, clearly champion is not up to par.

really wondering if he is worth playing. This thread really isnt about champ is op or up but rather if he is even viable or does literally any other assassin does he do but better.

his strength is that he can clean up team fights and if they escape with flash :^) they won't with kasadin, he has really strong mobility with his ult and some cooldown and his weakness is his landing phase which is just so sad all you gonna be doing is farming with W and poking with Q and praying for a bank

He's arguably balanced right now. I still use him and the new skin is amazing.

he's pretty good. His ult is still a damaging flash on 6/4/2 second cool-down.

like other have said, he just takes a looong time to become relevant thus he requires patience. Also requires your team to not throw/feed/fail before you become useful

Unless you picked him as a counter, say against Leblanc or brand or something like that, it's often helpful to just get shoved under your turret. So work on your last hitting so you can get your 2-3 items quickly and start wrecking.

thanks for all the feedback, i think i will pick him up, need a new mid laner and been curious about him for quite some time. I assume his win rate is much like azir where its not really showing a real good indication of his power.
