Regi isn't the only pro player that has done that before, Kassadin is a very common and strong pick at high elo thanks to his high mobility, spammable silence, aoe slow, and passive that reduces magic damage by a significant amount, which makes him a very strong mid lane once he hits level 6

The reason you dont see him much outside high elo is because he's difficult to play because he is a melee as opposed to almost every other caster that goes mid, and unlike Rumble or Swain he isn't that tanky, so his laning phase is a bit rough until he has his catalyst and hits level 6
