Kassadin Ult Buff

LegacyDAP·Apr 18, 2015·2 votes·509 views

If Kass really is an assassin? And like I've heard many people say that he's the champion to go into a fight, and out of one, but here's my only complaint. How am I supposed to leave a fight when I have to wait 5 seconds for my ult, and use it again to escape, and not only that, but I go like 4 feet in front of me.

So I was thinking since you guys like the ult range or whatever. How about if Kassadin gets a kill on an enemy champion, The ult cooldown is refunded. I mean Kat can do that on all of her spells. I think Kassadin should be able to at least have it on his ult. I mean if he is an assassin and all, and was meant to get to the back line, and burst then leave.

Riot has said they don't like the idea of giving a lot of up front damage with his high mobility which is why hes shifting more towards a "mage" jump in do some damage slow the team.. jump out, repeat.

yeah, everyone keeps saying the same thing you just did because Kass was the poster child of Mobility, but they nerfed everything about him, while letting equally mobile/bursty/toxic champions have basically the same function. The double standard is quite aggravating really, especially considering that since his massive gutting (he has only about 1/2-2/3rds his old damage, ramping mana costs on R, and no more silence, while other hyper mobile champs get introduced with knockups, free infinite dashes, tons of burst, and more of everything that they took from Kass. At this point, Kass will always have to be weak because he had such a powerful reputation for so long that any buff puts him right on everyone's radar that he might become massively OP, when there are champs that are burstier, more mobile, and all around stronger picks than him minus the reputation in almost every scenario.

Akali, Katarina, and Nidalee need to stay and get a kill if they want to get a reset; Akali and Katarina's mobility spells are targeted, and Nidalee doesn't get a full reset.

Leblanc can go eat railroad spikes, though.

I though his ult was fine D:

He couldn't even really ignore the front line. If a tank was even at the half way point of his ult, Kassadin would be dangerously close to them. Half his old ult's range was 350 units, which most champs can walk in a second with boots. To put this into a better perspective, the range of Rammus 's taunt is 325! Just look at this amazing range!

Also, something many people don't likely know about, is the significant delay on Kass's ult. By significant, I mean you're likely better off walking, because otherwise you'll likely teleport just as you get hit, affected by whatever horrible thing (including CC) that hits you.

Not to mention, even if you do make it, you're still dangerously close to the tank or whatever the front line is. Succeed or fail, you can't just pretend the front line isn't there.

Yeah. This is coming from a Kass main, and the main things I don't like is. He's an anti-mage why the hell did they remove his silence, and the shield on it should stop cc (one or the other not both that'd be op)

And everyone says he's supposed to do damage, and leave the fight, and take the back line, but here are the problems I see with that. He does little to no damage, because you have to rush RoA, and AAS. Which is fine, but you got to get extremely fed, and mid game to be a threat.
