With Kassadin, it's very situtational as to whether his early game is FAIL or ONLY 2-4 DEATHS (unless you're lucky and against a caster with low CC). No matter what, unless they're a complete failure, you build spellvamp, philo stone and kage's lucky prick ASAP. After that, go for either catalyst, Malady(if you're running low on mana too often) or just straight up to Rab's Cap. You have to adapt. I once played as Kassadin against a Varus, and no one else on my team could mid. Early game (levels 1-10) sucked, but after that Varus left his lane to gank the others, and I snuck in behind, 2 riftwalks +combo and a few w-AutoAttacks and he died every time. You just need to make sure the AD carries and hard CC's don't focus you (you're an assassin, not a tank), get some farm->get some kills->take enemy blue buff whenever you can and you're set.
