... at least normal... NORMAL.

Win rate is not everything, but when something loses near 10% win rate after changes, you know it must be worse, much worse.

No way his laning phase can be "smoother", considered laning phase is not only pre 6. Old Kass could have bad pre 6, but after 6, he dominated. This new thing won't have a much better pre 6 (Q shield is freaking overrated, it is a low 1.5 second shield), and after 6, he just can't flip the situation at all.

As the build you pointed out, there's no "excellent" damage by rushing tear + roa. Rushing those 2 are good, but it means you deal base damage for at least 15 minutes. And look at his base number, it's more "bad" than "excellent".
