Ad kassadin? viable? i say yes

[quote=PotatisFarfar]So why isn't any 1 playing ad kassading ? why not? all his spells synergise perfectly with a meele champion. he got teleport to get close. an aoe slow. and a silence. and a freaggin arp boost? every skill he have synergise with ad perfectly... [url=http://img842.imageshack.us/i/adkassadin.jpg/]PICTURE LINK!!!!!![/url] Tried to build him like this... worked fine i most say[/quote]

[quote=caucheka]i tried to build a hybrid kass once and ended up mostly ad. this was before he got the armor pen on w. didn't do so hot. but yes it should work.[/quote]

[quote=Footyballs]I actually played AD Kassadin while my friend played AD Lux, we laned bottom and got first blood - both of us with Long Swords for the fun. We ended up winning the game (AD Lux was far more viable than AD Kass). They had an AP Kass on their team, roughly same KDA as me yet he would destroy me in rift + silence + slow and I had a Banshee's. Only problem with AD Kass is that he isn't ranged and is far too squishy to get in close. Maybe I just failed at it, IDK. Think my build was like PD, merc treads, IE, Nashor's, don't remember anything else.[/quote]

[quote=Restrictnine#5232]ofc AD kass is viable. Thats what he was designed for... an anti mage. I mean honestly, he has a boss mana regen skill that when activated gives you ARMOR PEN. really? yes really. and his ult isnt really for damage, its for catching up to fleeing enemies. duh. Kassadin was created as an AD anti mage champ. Its why they gave him great ratios, so he could go hybrid and didnt need much ap, but ofc people take advantage of good ratios and just go pure ap on him. Same with janna and sion. Janna was meant to be a ranged dps and sion a tank, but we all know how those went down. only noobs make sion a tank.[/quote]

[quote=Kael312]janna was supposed to be ranged dps?[/quote]

[quote=SinDelta]Yeah haven't you see AD Janna it takes some skill but it hurts, you haven't wondered why her shield gives damage increase yet?[/quote]

[quote=Kael312]well, i always assumed support, and a shield that doesnt do anything else is boring[/quote]

[quote=DEWO]At least you could blank out names :P Damn i suck with Akali XD but i will get better i promise! :P[/quote]

[quote=PotatisFarfar]why blank out?? ^^ U can post games when i play xin ya know ^^. I know he is designed for it ^^ Dunno why u never see anyone going it :S[/quote]

[quote=Trojan995]Someone a while ago posted a tanky DPS build for kassadin. Since he's melee it's probably the best course of action, and since others have claimed he's anti-mage maybe a [[Wit's End]], [[Hexdrinker]], [[Banshee's Veil]], [[Guardian Angel]], and a [[hextech gunblade]]. That's just a build off the top of my head, adapt and change as you like. EDIT: forgot boots, which would be a horrible mistake in a real game. What kind of boots would be good? Berserker Greaves might be an option to get more Wit's End hits. Also removed FM because as kassadin, you have no trouble chasing.[/quote]
