Kassadin feels outdated

Other than his passive which removes the tilt from being creepblocked, the rest of his kit is very clunky. He lacks the stealth for engages and on demand escape like other assassin. Look at champs like LB/Zed/Fizz. They can engage, then blink out, or bait out CC to escape. Kass has none of those. Kass goes in blow his rotation, then is stuck in the fight without any escape. Then we have Shaco/Rengar/Eve who can stealth in for a guaranteed 100-0 while an approaching Kassadin is spotted from miles away. Kassadin damage is lackluster as well and despite being a late game scaling champ, most games are decided by 10 minutes before he can even scale. In his current state, he doesn't need buffs, but rather for his kit to be brought to 2018.

His ultimate is a blink on a 6/4/2 second cooldown (soon to be 5/3.5/2 seconds) and it feels like he

goes in and blows his rotation, then is stuck in the fight without any escape.

That says fights are ending very quickly. Kassadin is actually very mobile.

Kassadins only issues are:

Wave clear Being late game

Every other assassin can hold their own to snowball a lead early. Kassadin doesnt have this pressure.

Kassadin is just as mobile if not more mobile than most assassins.

His damage is on par mid game and better late game.

He is very strong it's just not his meta... His CC is soft compared to the assassins that have CC Poke isnt as good as assassins that have good poke Clear isnt good...

I remember the good old days he was a 90% ban rate king very well lol
