I hate when he´s free to play as all the noobs jump on him because of his style and appearance, and TOTALLY FAIL at pulling his amazing tricks off at least decently.

Here are some facts about him you HAVE TO CONSIDER before entering a game, otherwise you are just a usless burden and feeder to your whole team:

-Kassadin is NOT an initiator at all, DO NOT under any circumstances start a team fight by jumping right in the backrow of your enemy team trying to kill a squishy as you will be killed in about 1.5 seconds before pulling off anything other than a "lol thx for the gold" laughter from your enemies!

-If Flash has never been one of your top choices as a summoner spell and you either don´t like it/can´t handle it/for whatever reason prefer other spells over it anytime you will NEVER succeed with Kassadin! EVER!!! The Riftwalk is what makes Kassadin Kassadin, if you fail at pulling of the short range teleport mechanics do not even consider playing him and go to an easier to play, ranged burst champion such as Ryze or Annie.

-Do not check freaking brushes with your freaking Rift walk goddammit... if there really is someone in there, the result will be that you dealt some minor damage to them and he/they killed you before RW is back from cooldown, so don´t do that. Ever.

Usually the "Difficulty" scale on almost every champion is totally useless/wrong (Tryndamere is like the most difficult champion in the whole game according to that... yeah right cool story bro) but with Kassadin the ratio is suiting, he is damn hard to play successfully, but therefore even more rewarding/effective when done right. A wellplayed Kassadin will dominate in endgame, as his damage output is ridiculous with lots of AP and it is almost impossible to kill him if you really own this char at its full potential.

Go ahead and try him, but please start a bot game beforehand to see if you even got the slightest chance of being effective with this champ.
