Well Kassadin has not has a skin since July, 2011. They have been discussing more about Kassadin recently so I'm assuming they have some sort of minor or maybe even a moderate rework for him.

because instead of buffing him or potentially revert some very old nerf they give us a skin which makes no difference because he is trash right now.

There really isn't anything good about him

Crowe StalkerSep 30, 20151 votes

You clearly have never done a Riftwalk-Auto-Nether Blade-Force Pulse-Null Sphere- summoner 14 Combo properly then... if someone is low, Kassadin can very likely kill them or even force Summoners. He does lack a lot of utility since the Nerfs though, but honestly in the right hands he can be devastating with his burst potential.

Maybe reduce charge requirements for E, or buff R so he has better waveclear post-6, but the buffs he needs aren't very major.

khorneySep 30, 20151 votes

Umm yes there isn't a big reason to aa. Before you w. The extra damage off your basic is hardly damage I mean if you go ad yes by all means do that the ap way ohh man 10 % ap your doing big whoop and no kidding if someone is low kill them there isn't anything good about him loe damage okay ratios high cd that's good for what reason

Crowe StalkerSep 30, 20151 votes

You auto first into W because Nether Blade is an auto attack reset, the same reason you auto then W on Jax. While Kassadin has moderate to mediocre attack damage with a very small AP scaling thrown on, I often find that the extra 50 damage is enough to determine whether they live or die from the full combo, accounting for a Heal or Barrier.

As to Cooldown to Ratios, looking at the base Ratios I can see why you are concerned, personally I tend to run an early 20% CDR build on him, and my default CDR page includes 9 AD for easier CSing. I don't really have any issues with kassadin after my Catalyst but maybe he could use some base damage love (and maybe up Force Pulse damage to 100% if not reduce the charge requirement... You'd need two people blowing all their spells to cast Force Pulse once. Against an Ahri or Viktor... good luck getting CS anywhere that's not under your tower.)

I think Riot makes new skins for champs to like get more data about them (because more people play them) to see if they actually need changes. At least thats what I heard lol. It would fit tho cinsidering Vi and Brand got one too.

Devourer Kassadin has no issues currently for me. It's quite powerful, imo.

khorneySep 30, 20152 votes

I wanted to do that I saw videos of peeps going ad and sated and smashing

ValrunSep 30, 20151 votes

He really does. Devourer + Muramana procs go through the roof.

TransgressorSep 30, 20151 votes

Well, they'll be getting jack shit for me untill they give him his identity back, make him viable again, and grant him a proper Visual Update.

Kassadin is not weak. Statistically, the playerbase is just very inexperienced with him and makes him look bad. His win rate shoots up massively once you reach 50+ games. http://champion.gg/champion/Kassadin
