Lux has 49% win rate 6% win rate

so why is lux getting 30/40/50% cd reduction on killing someone with ult

while kassadin is getting -2 sec cd on E and a minor damage buff on ult?

because lux's ultimate is like 60 seconds. 50% of 60 is 30. 30% of 60 is 6. so 60 - 5 = 55. 60 - 30 = 30

even with 45% of 30 is ~16.5 seconds

darius can use his R upon killing an opponent instantly. at level 3 he no longer has to pay mana and isnt restricted to his 20 second timer.

kassadins E is based on how many spells someone has cast. it's not like it matters how fast he can use it. His R is based on mana and deals magic damage which is terrible if you're an assassin who cant use lethality or penetration items. honestly there's not much they can do for him

what about increasing his base damage but reducing his high scaling to make him use flat magic penetration?

I've actually played against a kassadin who went a bruiser build (like fizz/ekko etc) with 2 damage items and then the rest tank like spirit visage etc. It was the most bs thing i've ever seen. With his R mobility his E slow (being reliant on spell casts so being in the thick is good for that) his W basically the same as a fizz W and his Q giving a magic shield and OFC the 15% magic reduction. Kassadin being a "tank" like fizz et all is right on the cusp. If people actually experimented and monkeyed around with it, i'm sure it would gain traction because he really isn't much diff from Fizz.

the one thing that holds kassadin back that doesnt hold fizz back is that kassadin has max mana scaling.

you have to buy some mana items.

Kassadin sees more success in high elo, and with people who are good with him in general than Lux players do with her.

Kassadin's buffs frankly seem more generally useful. Lux's are more situational, they only occur if you kill someone with your ult. Lower cooldown on E and more damage on ult are always useful.
