Kass next buff is much needed since he isn't doing so well with the mid teleport meta, compared to scaling mages with wave clear like veigar, anivia or orianna, when his core identity is supposed to be an anti-mage. I think riot should think about changing the q, but not in terms of damage or raising the magic shield. I think one of the most interesting thing in kassadin kit is this charging system on both his e and r; and w serves as a reload (mana refund) tool. Why not incorporate this feature on the q shield by making it a "chargeable" shield? Like you could have something in the passive that says "everytime kassadin uses a spell, he gains a charge of (X+Y%ap) shield that can be activated with null sphere and last for Z seconds". This would actually make the rotation of spells more reliant on your micro decision making (which spell to use in the right order depending on what you want/need to do) and not just I use one rotation go back and go in again when my cds are up. It would also fit a specific thematic, which is the charge system.
