It doesn't work that way. Kassa counter Malz hard. Probably harder than most even.

Malz is a safe farmer, but he's not brokenly OP to the point of being able to farm from the tower. If Malz places a E on a minions, all Kassa has to do is last-hit, let the lane push and freeze it near the tower. Even if the minion wave is near the middle of the lane, Malz needs to get into rifwalk range to cast his vision. Even if Malz is under his tower, Kassa can Q+E and riftwalk out before the tower shoots at him. Combine that with the fact that Malz cannot prevent Kassa from farming pre-6 and that post-6 malz is still VERY squishy and you end up fighting against a champ that you cannot escape from, that prevents you from retaliating, that bursts you eery 6 seconds and that kills you in 2 burst.
