One of the ad matchups. Survive early, give up some cs, be sure not to get hit by both of his w, he can 100-0 with his ult and ignite if u dont have seekers armguard. You outscale him pretty hard with kassadin. Take fleet footwork and domination, teleport. When he chunks you to low just recall. If he buys tiamat and roams spam ping the team and push the wave on mid. There is not much u can do about his roams, max e.
Lucian
One of, if not the hardest kassadin matchup, avoid every time. Dont dodge only if its a full ad team, if it is just buy some armor, give up a lot of cs, i dont advise to play this matchup, but if you do fleet and resolve is a must most of the time. In higher elos he will just end the game before 25min. Buy ninja tabi, doran shield.
Zed
Again like with lucian, really hard, however if hes bad u can try to cheat with electrocute and ignite. Buy seekers armguard for survivability and just generally try to survive. He can dive u under your tower pretty easily. Dodge if u can, dont if its a full ad team
Renekton
A reallly hard matchup, but if u know what u are doing, u can match him late, give up a lot of cs, dont walk up close to him or u will get demolished. U outscale him extra hard late game, he will be useless, just dont die in lane, give up a lot of cs if u have to.
Jhin
Ad carry mid... Dodge if possible, if its full ad team u can try to win, buy the new ninja tabi.
Draven
Ad carry mid, this matchup is pretty rare. Buy ninja tabi, dodge, if its full ad survive and tp back to lane, when u have to.
Yasuo
For me i would say its pretty even, but since i've been playing yasuo a lot, i understand both the champions. Anyways Max E, u can buy the new ninja tabi if u need to. Be careful with his dashes on minions.
Ahri
Dodge her charm, dont push too hard, be aware of the jungler, u outscale her like most of the mages, the matchup is pretty good
Akali
Be careful of all ins with her ult, she has more damage built in her kit with a low amount of time, she can 100-0 you more easily.
Annie
Be careful about her stun and her ult. Watch the jungler and ward well, dont push too hard just scale.
Camille
A really bad matchup, doesnt happen that often, dodge mostly, if full ad just play. Be careful about her e its a lot of range, if she ults you, most of the time you will be dead, if not next to your tower, you cant ult or flash out of her ult
Irelia
Sustain, be careful of your jungler and her roaming, dodging her e is the most important, if you do shes not really a threat anymore
Qiyana
Not a terrible matchup, be careful about her ult stun. She will buy speed boots and tiamat probably, spam ping, when she is missing.
Fizz
poke him with q, if he all ins you can use your q too. If he jumps on you, use q, auto attack, w. You block his damage and do more yourself. You can dodge his ult with your riftwalk.
Tricks
U can make your ult go with more range, using your flash https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=G9HR8Yod7dA
here is some old footage of this.
Your W gets cast no matter what, so abilities like Vladimir w or fizz e can't stop it if u throw it fast enough.
Remember that your W provides u more mana. Stack your ult to do more damage with it.
Kassadin is a champion that easily gets countered in a bad matchup.
Don't blind pick it too often.
He has very little wave clear and mostly single target damage early on. With most of his damage coming from W and Q.
Kassadin seems really bad in the early preseason, probably he will get changes
