You gotta play him like an assassin if you're playing DPS. Jump in front of AP casters, silence them, and beat them down like you're some Garen with infinite Flash. When the enemy decides to nuke you back in panic, you eat that damage for 15% less and enjoy your massively increased attack speed for the remainder of the enemy's health.

The only problem with DPS Kassadin is that he's not so great against other pure DPS fighters, but that's obvious, yes? Imagine DPS Kass as an AP-killer version of Jax, who -basically- has a dodge for magic damage instead.

Don't forget, though, if you have enough attack speed, Riftwalk spamming actually becomes a viable, repeatable, non-gimmicky strategy. The new Manamune makes this very very fun to do.
