^ did about as well as i do with AP Kas, but I suck with Kas. t'was much fun, regardless!

Going to give this a shot in about 30 seconds. Quick question/suggestion. Why not build a philosopher's stone instead of tears? Mana returns + sustain, for the same price, and it'll earn itself back in gold, at least once over before you find a need to sell it.

ok so i tested out this build. The only reason i tried it was because i knew we were gonna lose the game. Anywyas i tried it, and it legitly does a decent amount of dmg. I really like how after my nuke i can still auto-attack them to death. my final score was 12 kills and 6 deaths, but we still lost lol. imo this is a good build if you're really bored and are not playing ranked games. All in all fun but full AP is still better.

I think you should reconsider placing 3 points in crit and 3 in crit dmg if you don't buy any crit items.

this build is not as viable because of the change to his nether blade

I was called a noob and told that my build sucks, but I think it works awesome, maybe get a lifesteal item instead of the banshee's veil get a deathcap or a stark's fervor.
Thumbs up!

its sevreal

Hey whats your username in-game cause i have been testing a new build for Hybrid Kass and it has been working pretty well..Even better than my usual Ap Kass. And i usually end up dealing about the same amount of magic damage as physical damage which I find very interesting since champs usually do a ton of either one or the other.

I'm sorry, but since kass doesnt have armor penetration anymore this build has become useless

Maybe he didn't make the account till that day. Does that mean that he's lying?

i always like using alternative builds and have always wondered about maximizing kassadin's abilities and passive. good job on submitting this build!

however, given kassadin's build and silence, i think kass is still reserved for going after the nukers on the enemy team. given this, i would recommend building kass a little tankier and adding a little more attack speed to start off with.

i'd recommend trying to build a catalyst instead of a tear. it's the item that i start with either dps or ap kass. it gives kass tremendous survivability. i then move on to a wit's end for the dps, extra dmg, and MR. the 10% passive isn't enough MR if you're going against a mage nuker. after that, i agree with the rest of your build starting with guinsoo's.

summary of my item progression: crystal+2 hpots --> catalyst --> boots --> wit's end --> guinsoo's --> merc treads --> gunblade --> cleaver --> hammer --> catalyst transition into banshee's

im trying it but it doesnt work and my mates just dont trust me they keep flaming and keep saying usless and leaving me in a lane v2 and btw i have to farm aloooot for a guinsoo i got it like 25min in game
