He's banned frequently because he's a champion that can kill his lane opponent easily and snowballs really quickly. He can also gank the other 2 lanes without letting mid get out of hand and can jump over wards with his ultimate.

Morgana does not counter him, she can just lane against him without dying because of sustain and pushing power. She can't kill him too, he has mobility, mobility counters Morgana. Champions that counter him are ones like Fizz that can outtrade him and evade his silence.

Strongest counter to him is probably Mordekaiser. He doesn't have sustain, but he can nullify Kassadin's Q harass and if Kassadin gets into melee range Morde will just Q him and hurt him more.
