riot rly needs to buff kassadin he is downright awful to play as his laning phase can be awful his dmg output is just not enough I know people will respond with ''he'll get too op'' but do you want a champ in the store who is downright awful to play waiting for a buff to come in? its time he got a much needed buff since he got nerfed to outright godlike levels
Actually, Kassadin is enjoying a healthy time in toplane (destroys Gnar) and he's on his way back into the meta (midlane). Overall, Kassadin is pretty strong right now. And yeah, maybe you could've beaten bad Zeds in the past, but Zed was one of Kassadin's strongest (laning)counters, if not the only one, and it's not a match-up you should pick Kassadin into either way. The only issue I'm having with him right now is that I would Riftwalk away to my tower, recall, buy items and Riftwalk towards my lane and the Riftwalk would cost 600 mana, cause the passive stacking wouldn't have dropped yet. Basically, my only issue is that it's too damn long, it should drop sooner.
His nerf is so bad, he could have a silence and still might have an iffy game.

I've been playing him alot after the nerfs and i would say hes still strong. Just need to get a lich bane roa and seraphs to go ham. Just in normals though, idk about ranked
I really dont want kass to be played again
his kit is unbalanceable if he get buffed then hes back on the permaban status, he need an entirely new rework.
kassa needs a rework, a real rework as far as he is left like he is his kit is either crap or op, riot cant just put him into a ballanced spot
max q first then e so he cant get away from you later on, plus cuz he facerolls his keyboard your e will always be up for a slow
I played alot of games with kassadin after his rework. I never experienced his full strenght before the rework, but he was probably extremly strong, because I keep dominating with him late game. Though, he gets easily harrassed, and against a ryze he's pretty much weak. I really wish that they will consider to rework his passive and remove the "15% reduced magic damage" bonus, because it's quite useless with the new burst mages and AD assasins. I think his riftwalk is for now balanced, but it does extreme low damage. as well, it was considered him to be a "mana tank" like ryze, but building mana for his ult that doesn't even scale that well? it helps him to have many rift walks up, but it won't help him to deal more damage.
Does riot want him to be a mobile bruiser? or something different? Build as pure ap assasin makes him extremly vurnable because he can't safely escape while his riftwalk is on cooldown. Zed has his shadows, Leblanc has her distortion, Tristana has her W (since it resets for champion kills), Fizz has his E that gives him invincible for some seconds..
Kassadin instead has to assasinate a target and either survives it or not. probably rushing a zhonyas wouldn't be bad, but.. how about that his ult restores 50% of his max mana for each champion kill? that would give him at least a small chance to safely escape after assasinating an target. it's a dumb idea probably, but it might help him.
