I just want to say that, as a player, I really personally appreciate the fact that you guys are continuing to keep a close eye on Kassadin post rework. The buffs he received in 4.6 were very gratifying, and I am growing to appreciate him as the champion he is today, without comparing him to previous iterations.

We've had some remarkably consistent discourse on the subject of Kassadin- I think you've responded to 3+ threads of mine over all, and therefore I have come to see you as the face of the Kassadin rework team.

If you have left Kassadin to pursue other projects, then by all means give my gratification to the team continuing to monitor his power levels.

The rework was a rough time (lol wise) for me, as Kassadin has been my favorite champion since I first played him early season 1. Even if we didn't always agree, I just wanted you to know that I am truly grateful for the consistency that you've shown.

This summoner appreciates it ^-^

Glad to hear! We never really "leave" champions, even after we finish a rework. It's our job to understand and work on the entire game ecosystem as a whole, so we do have to change focuses all the time which can make it feel like we've forgotten champions sometimes. This is something we have to struggle with all the time.

You may have been right on the W buffs potentially making Kass too bursty, but I am excited that his W feels like a valid level up option over Q and E. Only time will tell on this one.
