Qweterry: It's fine. I don't have time to list EVERY champion a Kassadin can fight. Though if you have trouble with a certain champion you can always ask =)

Hi man, epic guide.

I've been maining Kassadin for a long time before reading this guide and i have 2 items to discuss:
- Kassadin doesn't have cool skins >.> (They all look lame in-game, except the stock one)
- Archangels' Staff is really good on Kassadin, but not if you rush it. They AP it gives on it's own right is really low, but once you max out a RoA and the ToG it gives you a lot of AP (Insert math here). I usually run boots + 2 pots, ToG, RoA, Rabbadons and Archangels and it allows me to stack riftwalk without worrying a single bit about the mana. Then again, outright buying Archangels (As ive seen a lot of times) is kind of dumb/stupid. I'd have to do some math to prove my point here but im pretty sure throwing in a Frozen Heart and a Banshees Veil (Ryze-like build?) will boost AP values a lot while making Kassadin really tanky so you CAN get in, use Nether blade the way it is intended to and spam riftwalk to the max on the enemy's face (The riftwalk stack + teleport trick could work on this item set as well due to the ****loads of mana and the Frozen heart's CDR)

I'm aware that delaying the catalyst does leave Kassadin really vulnerable but as long as you play it safe in lane [The ToG will provide mana for a lot of Null spheres though] and gank a lot youll snowball really good.

I'm eager to see your take on this.

Hello CasterMaster. Your guide helped me a lot, but I'm still a little confused. After several wins with Kassadin, I found myself against Orianna as opponent in line, and had a really hard time against her, since she could shield all my spheres and just AA me, leaving me without farm.
Could you kindly make a list of champions that Kassadin counter and should be picked, or/and a list of champions that Kassadin can't counter and shouldn't be picked? I think it will be very nice help for newbie Kassadin like me. If you have time, of course.
Sorry for bad english.

Great build! Call me crazy, but I would like to see Nashor's Tooth under situational. I love it on kass, teemo, and others with massive on hit damage. It is unorthodox and tough to pull off, but with your hp you can actually cut many champs down with just nether blades when your burst is on cd. Between lich bane and Nashor's it is easy. Again, very situational, but rewarding if you get ahead.

first off i'd like to say that the build is very nice
2nd informing u that i am a "noob" of sorts but i have been doin pretty good so far
in ur masteries page i see 9 points in utility now i am not lvl 30 and can't even utilize all the the masteries yet, however. as squishy as i have noticed kass to be, would it make more sense to put those 9 points into the defense tree? personally under utility i only see the mana talent being worth putting points into? does this make sense at all?

other than this i love the build and if i'm wrong i understand just trying to further build my knowledge of how things work?

o and i really hope to get a reply from anyone cause i registered with the site just to ask this question lol.
