Kassadin Counters :: Counter Picking Stats for Kassadin by CounterStats

Katawina52 says “[My ban with Zoe] At first I thought Kassadin was an easy matchup after s11 changes, because of how squishy he became and Katarina can rush AD early, but if Kassadin rushes seekers u will do absolutely no damage and he will oneshot you. The only way to win this matchup is by going for trades with sword either all in with conQ or short trades into all in electro before he has his seekers, after he has it this lane is doomed 1v1 and he will likely hardcore outscale u.”

WayOfTheTempesst says “Save your windwall for his Q only if your shield is down so you can avoid the max possible damage from his poke. Don't spam your E too much for no reason since that charges up his E which you can not windwall. Get a freeze going pre 6 since he is very vulnerable to ganks before his ulti.”

7daysko says “Yet another annoying match-up. He isn't much to look at pre-6, but once he gets his Riftwalk he is a NIGHTMARE. Combine that with his Q that cancels your ulti and his passive which reduces all incoming magic damage by 15% and you can forget about out-trading him. Depending on his skill though, this game could be easy early on, given that he's melee. SEASON 11 EXTRA: He's been impacted pretty bad by the item changes as far as I've seen, obliterate him in the early game and he'll have a very hard time catching up.”

Fuzzmonkey says “Quite a hard matchup since he can deny your (Q + W) burst in laning phase. Land chains at level 6 and you can kill him from there onwards. Try and get your jungler to gank as many times as possible early game, since Kassadin will start to get pretty annoying to deal with once he gets his catalyst. Just make sure you can snowball off of him before he gets out of control.”

Drewmatth Taliyah says “MELEE = PUSH EARLY (LEVELS 1-2) - CARE FOR GANKS! (SPAM Q'S TILL 50-60% MANA) - Corrupting + maybe a Doran if you struggle. If possible spam Q from a longer range and try to send him to base before 6. Post 6 there is no reason to fight him unless you have a hard CC such as Skarner because he will always escape with blinks or even kill you. Kassadin is a good counter to Taliyah because if he does not have cooldown on teleport he can easily follow you bot so try to roam only when you know his teleport is not up. Kassadin usefulness starts only at about level 11 and two items, so try to abuse early as much as you can and perhaps tell your team that too. Beware of the teleport. Most Kassadin players will go for TP and will try to bait you into using all your skills and missing them so that you need to recall. Whenever you can try to go for all-ins because if you don't get a kill the enemy Kassadin will just gain advantage from the TP, so engage smart.”

Polarshift says “You can poke him hard early laning-phase since he is immobile. If he runs electrocute be careful of his all in damage with ignite. Your wave-clearing is way superior so use that to your advantage to dodge him after level 6 and try to pressure the jungle and other lanes with your team. Later in the game you can try to keep him in place whenever he tries to go for your team, that'll allow your team to potentially cc or kill him. After level 6 you won't be able to do anything to him anymore.”

Halfhand says “The reason kassadin is a major threat is not because he will kill you in lane but because twisted fate is not the right champion to punish his scaling. Meaning a good kassadin can free scale against in this matchup. Try to punish him if you can. If he started dorans shield, you should focus on last hitting minions more than trying to poke him out of lane.”

Aethlo says “ Kassadin has the wave clear advantage post-6 with mana. || Kassadin loses slightly pre-3. || Kassadin loses slightly pre-6. || Kassadin loses slightly post-6. || Kassadin hard out-scales Annie. || Tip: Annie wins slightly early - but Kassadin is really safe - if he uses his ult correctly it's really hard to kill him post-6. Early game you win in skirmishes because of your slightly higher damage and CC. I recommend the 'Generic' build as compared to the other builds the first item power spike will help you prevent Kassadin from snowballing and scaling.”

iZianni says “Its Kassadin, just avoid combat. You will be outscaled, you can't kill him because of Jump + Fleet. Your only window of opportunity is pre-6, and you don't even technically win that because of Doran Shield + Fleet. Just don't give him any kills and rely on CC chaining in the early-mid game with your teammates to suppress him.”

Edg3Lord says “Laning phase Kassasin is weak, and cannot really defeat you in trades, especially now Fleet is nerfed. He will become a bigger thread from level 6 onward, which is why you would rather go and pressure him early in the game and then follow up on other lanes with roams.”

Yeager says “Winning this matchup will require coordination with your jungler, and great vision control because you have to push the wave into his turret to punish him, so the enemy jungler most likely look for ganks. A good kassadin won't push the wave against you, so you can't really freeze. His Q gives him a temporary magic shield, so when trading, wait until the shield expires, and then use your abilities. His Q is a single-target spell so the minions will aggro him when he's using it. If you have a stacked wave by slow pushing, he will take a lot of damage from the minions. Spam auto attacks and zone him from waves with your ball. He's a melee champion so you can punish him pretty hard if he walks up to cs. People usually greed for cannon minions. If you have teleport, you can apply constant pressure and match his teleport. He obviously outscales you, so you want to try and close out the game before he hits the lvl 16 elospike. That means not giving him any advantages (dying to enemy jungle gank for example) What happens after lvl 16 entirely depends on the teamcomps. Orianna is also strong lategame so you have to play around your teams wincondition (splitpushing, teamfighting, sieging etc). Even if kassadin is at god-level after 16, he can still be shut down with the right teamcomps, so don't give up even if you reach lategame. ”

Yeager's Master Orianna guide by Yeager | Diamond Orianna Player

XayLies says “You can totally harass him because his passive and Q based against magic damage enemies while you have physical. Ruin his scale as much as you can and make him useless (until lvl 16 and then the game changes so maybe you will need to look for some resistance.)”

Impossible2Gank says “His Q grants him a small AP shield but it's enough to negate your E so it can be a pretty hard matchup especially since he has little to no mana issues and If you find yourself winning early game careful later on as you can imagine Kassadin scales very good and you'll stand virtually no chance fighting him if he grabs a lead as well.”

Ambitieux says “THIS LANE. Is almost as hard as Fizz but not really. You're big advantage is your 1-5. You need to play this lane VERY aggressive and be on hyper alert from junglers. Get him under tower as fast as possible and poke him out of lane. The more autos the better, trade out autoing him over tower considering the tower wont take much damage pre minute 5. Use charms and Q when he walks up for cs. Try to encourage your jungler to play aggressive and get good wards in enemy jungle. Roam only when needed and punish kass as much as possible. If played correctly once you both hit 6, he still shouldn't be as much of a problem but if out of control you NEED help. I suggest banning him”

Yasukeh says “ The second easiest matchup for Tryndamere. Pre 6 if he ever tries to go for CS you get a slow and either burn flash or kill him.

Eriosunx says “Kassadins started to adapt to Katarina lately, most of them play with electro+boneplating+armor in stats and ignite, this allows them to have a incredible kill pressure in lane at level 3, and they can fight you and trade very easily. Best option is to start LONGSWORD+3POTS or DSWORD+1POT and going for CONQUEROR+BONEPLATING + X2 MR IN STATS , rushing BOTRK is the best option so far, once you have BOTRK CLOSED you can easily win 1v1's into Kassadin. Make sure to NOT GET POKED BEFORE LEVEL 3 AND TO NOT TAKE A ANY TRADE WITH YOUR BONEPLATING ON COOLDOWN! , if you reach level 3 full health you can win the one on one into Kassadin if you play correctly and use your AUTO-ATTACK'S DAMAGE + CONQUEROR ”

InkHeiko says “In my opinion, Kassadin is not a very strong champion at first against Seraphine ( in the first level you can just abuse of him), so your goal is to abuse of him a maximum and to buy as much items as possible to be able to handle him. At his first back you have to make him back with less than 900 gold, push under tower the minion and back with your 1k well deserved golds. But after lv 6 it is another story. Be careful with roams and such and normally if you abused of his short but weak early it shouldn't be a problem. ”

NuclearAkali says “You can either force him to push the wave and he gets ganked by your jungler or you can push in and harass him until he is forced to recall and lose XP. The first option is the most viable since the Kassadin wants you to push into him so he can play safe under turret.”

AniviaBot says “Kassadin is another champ which can be hard for Anivia to deal with from time to time. In the early stages of the game you're going to have a easier time vs Kassadin, but once he hit level 6 and abuse his mobility the lane slowly turns into a nightmare. His q also is a huge counter to both your Q and R. This ability is a disruption which cancels your R and makes so you're unable to recast q. This became less of a threat in the resent buffs Anivia got. You can now use q directly at him and if he so desides to Q you when you've used yours, counter it by using your E. With the new Anivia buffs you're not be required to stun anymore to crit with your E, the enemy champ just has to get hit by your Q”

eiensiei says “Kassadin is a level 5 threat not because of his laning phase, but because he's absolutely unkillable at level 16 and since I don't trust my teammates to end before that point, I almost always ban him. On the off-chance that he does go unbanned though, I'll E-AA him pre-6 and use my W (I get it at level 2) when he tries to trade back. I'll also do my best to weave in as many autoattacks as I can when he goes for minion last hit. After 6 I just farm safely and stay close to my tower. I don't waste my Q randomly, I wait for him to use his R first. I usually have a hard time killing him in lane without a jungler, despite winning heavily in trades, because of his passive and because whenever he gets too low on health, he just goes B and teleports back. I need a jungler in this match-up if I have any hope of being even remotely as useful as Kassadin is, which is another reason why I ban it. Can also go for a Cull start.”

Hiimkata says “At first I thought Kassadin was an easy matchup after s11 changes, because of how squishy he became and Katarina can rush AD early, but if Kassadin rushes seekers u will do absolutely no damage and he will oneshot you. The only way to win this matchup is by going for trades with sword either all in with conQ or short trades into all in electro before he has his seekers, after he has it this lane is doomed 1v1 and he will likely hardcore outscale u.”

CaptianMike says “Early game is your best window to build a lead on him. He is extremely vulnerable pre-6. Post-6 keep your distance away from him, as he is very mobile can make quick and deadly trades. He is difficult because of his extreme mobility, which only gets faster as the game progresses.”

Pixel Pocket says “Kassadin will likely be unable to kill you in lane, but the problem is that you don't have the kill pressure or poke to force him into bad backs and he will inevitably outscale you (and everyone on your team) if left to farm. To win you need to roam so effectively that your team gets fed enough to end before he becomes relevant.”

Yamikaze says “You will be looking to poke as much as possible with Q lvl 1. Punish him for every cs he tries to get. If he throws Q at you, make sure to zone him from CS. The matchup will not be as easy if he decides to max E which gets charged super fast from your constant spamming of abilities, and it also can't be blocked by your windwall. Kassadin players usually take TP, which gives you an advantage in 1v1 as we have ignite. ”

invalidd says “Abuse him while you can in his early stages of the game because as soon as he gets level 6 and seekers he can keep up with your trading pretty easily, this includes roaming and assisting skirmishes while also setting up ganks against him, he's a ticking timebomb so the faster you snowball the better chances you have winning the game, his Q can cancel your hook channel and be aware his R has a 4 second cooldown at lvl6.”

Sylvan Lore says “Kassadin is a surprisingly easy match-up for Orianna but the more I play it, the more convinced I become that this matchup comes down to jungle difference. If you receive equal or extra pressure from your jungler, you can bully this champion into oblivion from level 1 onwards and smash the entire game before he ever gets a chance. On the flip side, if he gets some gank assist and gets even a minimal lead, he will snowball the entire game and become a huge problem no matter what you do. It is absolutely essential that you track the location of the enemy jungler while simultaneously pressuring every cs he tries to get without a max range Q. ”

lkycch says “Pre-6 it's not a problem, but after that you'll never stun him again... His entire kit is perfect for destroying mages. Sadly, Zilean doesn't have enough aggression to bully him in the early game, which means Kassadin will gain free access to mid-lategame. I suggest dodging in champ select as it's just too risky to play against him. Your jungler has to be on point and camp him enough to shut him down, but that rarely happens in solo Q.”

Aikairi says “Now this matchup should be quite decent since you can build AD and burst him down with autos. You win pre-6, and be careful of his ulti post-6 which he can use to avoid your daggers. Pay careful attention to how many ulti stacks he has since it determines his damage, and also pay attention to his mana. If he spams his abilities he might not have enough mana to fight you.”

Penpiddin says “Awful matchup and without jungle help you will lose as he scales harder and his MR passive and burst makes things uncomfortable for u after 6. Kassadin is weak while you are weak so difficult to punish him early cos of his anti mage MR passive. Way to play after 6 is on the edge of your Q range. Q him first then Dot and farm.

ezmod66 says “Honestly this filthy champ right here should be banned. Early game you can aa and poke him down however he will normally go for a corrupting potion and heal most of the dmg. If you find yourself up against this dude farm abuse him as much as possible pre 6. Once he hits 6 this shit is aids to play against. His q interrupts your r channel and cancels it. Wait for him to be on you before you q him. If he r q you instantly you can just q r e and harrass him. Depending on how fed he is and the damage he deals he will either try all in you or run. Matchup Difficulty: Dodge or ban”

Dr Eggmund says “Silence really bugs me and his ult can prevent your all in's only trade when he is in an awful position. Early game try to make him use his mana against you and heal back up. This will prevent him from teleporting away with his ult in all in's and gives you the upper hand from you when you want to fight. Poke and farm throughout the early game and get your items so you can punish him with more poke or by killing him.”

FalleN3 says “This is an extremely tough lane and you will need some jungle pressure or ganks to help you survive or win lane. It is almost impossible for you to trade with him due to his (Q) providing him with harass and a shield. Choose flat AP Quints and AP or MR Glyphs against Kassadin. I try to play this lane passive, survive and farm as much as I can. Call for jungle help and roam to to other lanes when possible. Oh,,,,,, what fun you're going to have :)”

Katfire says “Kassadin is one of the hardest match ups for Katarina in the game. He will outrade you at any stage of the game, and even if you win a trade slightly Kassadin usually goes fleetfootwork and corrupting potion for great sustain. Getting AD early and going Conq is highly recommended against Kassadin because he takes reduced damage from AP due to his passive, so most of your damage will be basic attacks with Conq. Bork is highly recommended. His Q can interrupt your R so be careful when using it. You want to trade when his Q is down and basic attack a lot. Sadly Kassadin feels very hard to stop. Give him any kill and its over. Or let him free farm to 11-16 and its over. You need to snowball hard and end the game before Kassadin reaches late game godmode.”

Elhypersnyper says “Kassadin's R is basically a hard counter to Kog'Maw. 1: It closes the gap between you and him and as you're already squishy he's going to do lots of damage to you late game and maybe even 2 or 1 shot you. 2: His R is a perma counter to your passive if you trade vs Kassadin and he kills you but he's low you can win only and ONLY if he isn't 6, when he's 6 he's going to R away and live no matter what. 3: His R is a perma counter to your R and basically renders you worthless as you're mostly just poke and set up for your team. Now this being said you have a range advantage if you can kill him pre-6 you have a chance but remember once he gets 6 its going to be very hard to kill him so try and minimalize big engages unless your jungle is near. If you aren't Perma-banning Ahri Perma ban this guy. ”

SF Shadow says “Kassadin‘s magic shield and passive are perfect to counter zoe. When facing a Kassadin, always keep in mind that he might become really tanky after completing his rod of ages. Furthermore, Kassadin‘s R is a low cooldown dash, which is good for dodging Zoe‘s bubble. Whenever you miss your E, you will get a lot of damage. Try to use that. When you have your E ready, Kassadin might wait for you to miss it and engage. Don’t use your E before he didn’t Dash. Your E + Q is very strong in Midgame and able to get a lot of pressure. When Kassadin is in lane with you, just try to not get killed and farm. Kassadin is a good Duelist, but he can’t 1v5 your team in the most situations, but you can onehit their ADC. That way, your team is able to win the Teamfight.”

Myhg says “Personal go to ban. He's extremely hard to play against because his Null sphere cancels your ultimate. His low cd ultimate also means you can't hit him with q most of the time. If I'm ever against a Kassadin, I start doran's blade and can out trade him with autos. If he ults on you, he probably also used all his other abilities in the process and you can engage on him for a short while because he has no way of fighting back.”

Nazrat says “This pick is must ban if you are planning to play Orianna, you won't be able to do much against him as your dmg early on is very low and with his passive + Q + fleet + doran's shield or potions he can easily sustain it and outscale you hard late game. If you get to play this matchup try to get your jungle to gank him early game or constantly push him and look for oppurtunities around the map.”

ZeMoller says “Very easy to punish in lane, freeze the wave and call a jungler, just dont let him scale too hard (like any other game). Like most mele matchups, he has to jump into you to actually do proper damage which lines it perfectly up with r w combo. ”

Siderman5 says “So a lot of people is saying that with Ahri, it is easy to escape from bad fights. But not if the enemy is a Kassadin. After lvl 6 with his ult he can chase you forever (or at least, until he has mana). his abilities can damage lot, so you should focus dodging his abilities like E, or not letting him close, to hit W on you because these abilities have insane ap ratio, so he can easily oneshot you in late game. The only advantage you will have is early and mid game... try to make plays in the early game, but focus on farming too, because you will need to be in advantage both kills and farm to beat him in late game.”

S11 Ekko 1v9 Carry Guide by Nazrat | Diamond Ekko Player

Yeager says “The problem with this matchup is the fact that you can't do anything to him. His passive makes him take reduced magic damage, his Q gives him a magic shield. His Rod of the ages core item makes him tankier as well. Kassadin will scale for free, and if he gets to lategame, noone can stop him. ”

Yeager's Master Ekko Guide|Rank 1 Ekko world by Yeager | Diamond Ekko Player

Yeager says “He has a free laning phase against mages as there's not really anything you can do due to his passive and magic shield from Q. Your objective is to end the game fast by NOT letting him scale. So if you can't do anything to him in lane, shove the wave and roam to other lanes and get them ahead. ”

Yeager's Master Neeko Guide [All Roles] by Yeager | Diamond Neeko Player

elnino9 says “Go for a trade when his Q magic shield is down. You can get out-traded if he hits all his spells. Setup Q dagger on him directly or on minions, he is a melee champion so take advantage of this. Don't Q him when his Q is up, he'll simply get magic shield from you with a Q and you'd get out-poked. After hitting 6, if he ults in and uses Q, be aggressive and all in with your own ult.”

FalleN3 says “Pre level 6 you can try to zone him and harass him with AA due to him being a melee champion. His (Q) can be quiet annoying as it not only causes damage but gives him a shield against magic damage too. Try to zone him as much as possible early and bully him from his farm. You should try to make use of his pre 6 lack of mobility & call for some jungle help to abuse it. Once he reaches level 6 the real fun begins. Kassadin will likely roam now too so be sure to give your team a heads up if he goes missing or follow him if possible. Some magic resist will go a long way here, consider Merc Threads / Banshee's Veil.”

Yeager says “Easy early, but becomes harder later. You want to establish lane dominance by pushing hard lvl 1. When he is under his tower, he won't be able to Q spam you, and you can bully him. ”

AP WormMaW Mid says “This guy can be really painful even early on with his Q spam. In case that he has Doran shield, just ignore him and don't even bother harassing him. In case that he has anything else, then use your E for slow and go all-in with W pre-6. If you go for short trades, just keep in mind, that first you need to wait for his shield from Q to fall, otherwise you will be losing trades and he will block a lot of your damage. Post-6 he will try to abuse you, though with your ult up if he jumps on you, just don't get scared. At first you need to E him and start spamming autoattacks and Rs until he has another ult back. With that, you should be able to deliver enough damage to scare him off these actions or sometimes he might even end up getting killed. What is problem though, that he might roam a lot and get advantage somewhere else, which might end up being problem when dealing with him from mid to lategame!”

Frixen says “You're on the clock. POKE HIM. Do stuff pre-11 because, post-11 he will just kill you. He's not that dangerous in lane, despite his annoying Q, as you can still auto him after gold-carding even if he Q's you. It's not an easy matchup and definitely a loss post 11 levels. So you have to do A LOT on the map before that.”

FalleN3 says “Laning against Kassadin should be reasonably OK due to him being a melee champion. Should they be decent at playing the champion or are a OTP, then you might be in for some trouble. Try to farm as much as you can during laning phase. His (Q) is annoying as it offers him a shield. After 6 he becomes kill-able for you. If you fall behind though, this will be difficult. He will want to roam so be sure to either follow him or else be the one leading the roam.”

After 6, he doesn't have as much burst as Akali and if you are even or ahead of him you should be able to kill him with x3 ultimate stacks. If you fall behind though, this will be difficult.

Bouhhsolene says “I used to permaban kassa, but now, I think the matchup can be quite easy if you can win early. Take Electrocute as it will be easy to proc. Try to freeze the lane, and not to push, so he either lose CS, or he take poke damage. Try to either kill him, or avoid him from CS. If you have an early jungler such as elise, you can easily set up a dive in the early levels, if you have the info on their jungler. In late tho, once he get level 6, you won't be able to hold him at all, but normally, you have the tools to end before he get to level 16.”

Reason97 says “Much like Anivia, a weak champ early on who you can easily bully, but much stronger as soon as he hit's 6. If he get's too ballsy you can punish him with your ult. the biggest issues here are his magic shield and his silence. It's rough to get a taste of your own medicine with the silence, and the shield can eat some of your damage, but until 6 you have massive lane pressure over him. ”

A general guide to Malzahar, The Prophet of the Void by Reason97 | Malzahar Player

Reason97 says “Kassadin was designed almost exclusively to destroy mage's, so you're not in for a fun lane. Pre level 6, you have edge. AFTER level 6, be on alert at all, times. His power spike at 6 makes him very hard to pin down for a long time, and he can chunk you out very quickly if you dont have something or someone you can fall back too close by. Try to get him behind early on if you can, but after he hits level 6, play as safe as you possibly can and let him be the one to screw up. ”

A general guide to Anivia, The Cryophoenix by Reason97 | Anivia Player

orangepenguinhead says “His passive reduces the amount of damage you can put out. His Q can shut you down in a team fight as your R cancels if Anivia is hit with any form of displacement or CC. Try to contain him pre-6 because that is when he is the weakest. ”

BloooodTV says “D-Blade. He will attempt to poke lvl 1 by starting Q and will only go for CS with Q. Poke him if he tries to auto for cs. Deny him as much CS as you can. He really can't do much pre-6 unless he has his jungler. He will outroam you and outsustain you if he goes D-Shield + Fleet. Most Kassadin players take Teleport so at least you have that advantage 1v1 if you take Ignite (which you should **NEARLY** always mid). Outscales you. Take Fleet or Conq (Depends on team comp).”

Veralion says “HoB/Sword. I used to despise Kassadin with my scaling builds. He seemed unbeatable between his sustain, poke damage, and powerful W that kept me away from farm. Recently I've had some pretty successful lanes running HoB into him instead. The best way to handle Kassadin is to get the lane frozen and bully him away from farm with Hail. Your combo is terrifying for a champion with so little armor and will completely prevent him from walking up to melee farm, forcing him to Q creeps over you in order to avoid being hard starved. His E makes sticking to him and threatening solo kills unlikely, but as long as you keep him off of your creeps you are doing your job. Begin positioning aggressively and zoning him at level 2. You may be able to surprise him at level 3 and kill him if he isn't careful. The most important thing is to get that freeze going and keep it going to put him 50 CS behind. Mind that burnout doesn't end up breaking your freeze and never E more than 1 creep at a time, even if it may get you some damage onto him. Tank incoming waves in front of your turret and keep them parked right out of its range. Then position behind the caster minions so that you can hit Kassadin and only Kassadin with your E and W if he even thinks about going up for farm. Once I get more skilled at this, Kassadin may not be such a bad lane after all. I will probably drop the difficulty further in the future, but I'm leaving him at 4 for now simply because he's such a high scaling threat later on. ”

xSealed says “Although, a close combat favors for Lissandra, it also favors for an assassin like Kassadin. When it comes to the trades of damage, Lissandra has an advantage in early because of her attack and ability range advantage but that's only when Kassadin still doesn't have his Rift Walk. Also, Kassadin's passive ability makes him take a bit less magic damage. So it might became a bit of disadvantage for Lissandra. Magic Penetration can't affect that magic damage reduction of Kassadin.”

BigBushMan says “If you thought Galio's magic shield was bad, it gets worse. Much Worse. Kassadins passive reduces 15% of all magic damage he takes, which is already bad, but he also has a Silence with his Q, sustain with Fleet Footwork and his W, Engage with his R, and disengage with his R, along with insane burst with his E. He is weak early, but is still able to kill you easily and once he hits level 16, its just over. Dodge if at all possible. ”

Daedralus says “He can get annoying in the sense that he does block your magic damage slightly better than others and gains quite a bit from his W, but his mana costs are still lame (so are yours tho) enough to run out before killing you. So in the case where but parties are out of mana, your speed both in attack and movement has an absolute advantage and will be usually what happens in early game. Save your ult for after he uses his ult to catch up to him and try to time your Q. He has a cast timer which makes it much easier to latch on to him and not being able to run away will ruin his game.”

EvilBird090 says “Kassadin is the most well known counter to Vlad probably. Before level 6 he is not a big threat but he hard outscales you in 1v1s after that. Try to end the game before he gets level 16 to avoid total annihilation. The only thing you can do to outplay him later in is to predict is ult and pool it accordingly, even then if not ahead you can easily die to his burst. The only advantage you have against him is in teamfights, but watch out that you don't let him split too long uncontested. The best bet you have on shutting him down is to push him in early and kill him under his tower by repeatedly poking him until he is in kill range with ignite, freezing does not really work as he can farm well with Q and is really safe from jungle ganks thanks to his ult.”

Euphoric Toaster says “Kassadin, simply put, is a ticking time bomb. His passive and Q shield keeps him pretty safe from a lot of your poke/harass and all-in burst in the laning phase. A good Kassadin player will get out of laning phase only slightly behind, and from there the champion grows into a monstrosity to the point where he can 1v9 at level 16. Hes not the worst to deal with because he CAN be heavily set back early still with a good stun or jungle assistance, and CAN be shut down later with CC, but he still sometimes can be a nightmare to deal with. Thankfully, there aren't that many Kassadin players on the ladder.”

If he R into you in a teamfight you R him. You should outshove him at level 6 and look for roams or to pressure the jungle. Start corrupt pot.”

MechaaZero says “I'd say this match-up is a pretty lost cause after 6. His ult makes it very hard to land your E which is your means for escape and damage. He also does a lot of damage himself, so this is a bannable champ if you come across him a lot.”

CC Diana says “Kassadin is an interesting matchup. You have similarly bad laning phases and deal incredible burst damage at level 6. Kassadin's burst in very telegraphed since he needs to stack his ult in order to deal noteworthy damage so if you see him ulting around, be wary of an engage. He is also very mana hungry so he will likely purchase an early catalyst or tear of the goddess and lack damage resulting in a weak early game. Use this time to hit him where it hurts.”

The Jhin Cena says “Kassadin most of the time shouldn't be much of an issue. Only time Kassadin might be difficult is if you're matched against a good Kassadin, who can dodge your Ult with his, and knows when to burst on you. That being said, be a bit careful early game when blowing CDs on him. I've nearly died because of it due to the Kassadin nuking me as I return behind the minions, with no E to escape with. Before level 6 you might get a bit annoyed by his poke, but once you get your Ult you can launch it at him and your combo should kill or nearly kill him. Even a good Kassadin might not be able to dodge your Ult with his, since Kassadin's teleport isn't as quick as a standard flash, so you shouldn't worry too much about Ulting on a Kassadin.”

AzureArmatt says “Kassadin's passive reduce magic damage that he takes + he has mobility that can be superior to yours once he gets items. He's scaling is way better then yours but his weak point is laning phase and early mid game where his damage isn't that high and he's not mobile enough to perform 10 blinks in one teamfight. You need to try and poke him while not getting to close to him. his Q grands him shield that will absorb magic damage but it deals really small damage early so if you manage to land both of your Q damage you will be victorious in this trade. Once he and you hit level 6 you should try to bait him into using his Rift walk (ultimate) so he won't be able to blink away from your damage. Don't get caught by enemy jungler and you should be fine. Consider buying zhonya against him or banshee's veil (personal preference) don't skip defensive item this time”

In this matchup pre 6 you want to avoid getting poked by his Q as much as you can while trying to farm. You won't be able to win or "hardly" win trades against him because of the magic shield from his Q since he will outsustain you if he bought corrupting potion first. If not and you manage to win trades then you can pressure him from farming. The moment he turns lvl 6 you should avoid getting in his ult range and try to safely farm.”

Don't burn too many abilities near him either, as this is what powers his E. Kassadin has built in MR, so I'd recommend getting Void Staff before Liandry's, and making laning phase a farm lane. Kassadin is very mana hungry pre-6, but his W restores mana. Try to poke Kassadin and force him to sit under tower if possible when he tries to W a minion or even you so he can't restore his missing mana. ”

If he blinks to you to combo you after level 6, throw your E at him while his R's on cooldown, throw a Q, and run. Just generally don't let him come near you. His R has a 6/4/2 second cooldown, so up until level 16/he caps CDR, that gives you a short window when he won't be able to dodge your E. Remember that he takes 15% reduced magic damage. A combo that might oneshot any other mid laner may not be as effective on Kassadin. Kassadin really likes to tower dive. If he attempts this, put him to sleep and run.”
