The hardest thing for Katarina to deal with is the exteremly low cooldowns on Cassiopeia's abilities. Of her abilities pre-6, the longest is 9 seconds. Combined with her Deadly Cadence and Twin Fang if Katarina gets hit with Miasma or Noxious Blast, Cassiopeia will melt Katarina's face. No questions asked. If Katarina can juke or dodge out of Twin Fang's range, she should be safe and be able to beat her provided she's careful to stay out of Noxious Blast and Miasma, especially seeing as Miasma grows. Going from Katarina's side, if Cassiopeia can stay out of range of Shunpo, Katarina will have to rely heavily on her Bouncing Blades to deal damage. If Cassiepeia comes in too close, Katarina's got to have great reaction times to get her combo off pre-6. She may not get the kill right away, but if nothing else she will drive Cassiopeia off and Katarina can take advantage of that depending on her health. After level 6, it will depend on who gets their combo off first. If Katarina gets poisoned, Cassiopeia should win, if Cassiopeia gets within range of Shunpo first, then Katarina should win. It all depends on the skill of the players as with anything. It would be an epic battle though!
