"A vicious Void predator,Kha'zix infiltrated Valoran to devour the land's promising creatures.With each kill he absorbs his prey's strenght,evolving to grow more powerfull. " I quoted this because they should implement this into Kha,i mean the ability to 'absorb' his prey in some way,imo it would be an awesome change to Kha,as you are already changing so much assasins you might aswell change Kha abit. Hope some people see this as I do. 'Kill. Consume. Adapt'

They tried that with nunu and after awhile it got stale and removed.

Assuming he's fed he gets stronger with kills, leveling up faster, upgrading items, and evolving abilities.

Besides what would kha'zix absorb? Scuttle's ability to do nothing, wolves' ability to bark, gromp's ability to lick people, blue's ability to hulk mash, become baron nashor himself with wings?

As i said 'absorb' not literally,but in some way. I was thinking in the way they made Rengar,but idk. You might aswell be right. :)

I think the main goal for kha'zix is to evolve what seems necessary in the match, in a sense the summoner is playing god by choosing what to evolve. What I think would be a good way to give him this feel is to give him more than one type of evolution, maybe give him 2 or 3 options per ability. For example have his live Q and pbe Q as options but letting him only have one, in a sense its are they all squishy champs or does kha'zix need to bust up some tanks. Allow kha'zix not to simply evolve whats best but to choose a more in-depth adaptation for the match.

some examples for evolutions:

Q: live or pbe (fighting squishies or tanks) W: Live or new evolve where it shoots a single missle but isolated procs passive (wave-clear/teamfight or single target) E: live or maybe no resets but stacks, no increase on range, basically 1 big jump with resets or 2-3 small jumps (flashy clean up crew or more stickiness/ mobility in teamfights) R: live or pbe (more time invis in team fights or map mobility)

These are just Ideas I thought of, but I think it would be neat to give him more evolutions than just the 4 usual ones. This could also give kha'zix more versatility than just the which order is the best.

Giving two options might just make him over complicated. All they really need to do is give kha'zix reasons to evolve certain abilities.

Like why not give E a QSS effect like rengo's new W? A kha'zix may prioritize rushing to evo E in order to adapt to ganking a morgana lane or avoid jinx clamps. Q could be %HP based to make players decide on evolving Q against tanky teamcomps, but against squishy mage and marksmen comps it may not make a difference. W could be a mini spell vamp for 2 seconds after using it to give him better dueling potential, if he struggles in 1v1s he could go with W early to make sure his opponent doesn't walk away with 10 hp and you die. Ultimate is pretty good the way it works now (PBE assassin update I mean), it gives him more jungle mobility to get from one place to the other and more escape/juke options.

What riot just did with the assassin rework wasn't buffing weak abilities, it was nerfing strong abilities or making strong abilities feel lack luster. A kha'zix will probably still one trick order evolve his abilities and succeed. I find his new evolutions to be more playstyle based than adapting.. (Objective player? Q, gank and counter jungler? R) rather than saying "hmm... which one of these will help me do better in this situation."

The kha changes aren't terrible though, considering how strong duskblade is with his new passives. Just they didn't hit the mark on why they were even done.
