Champions that are good at harassing melee champions are strong against Kass. For example, Swain is a good counter to Kass as he can get a quick E + Q combo in if Kassadin tries to last hit. Of course, as mentioned earlier, AD champions with good ranged harass or quick gap-closers like Talon, Pantheon, Gangplank or any ranged AD carry are probably the best bet.

Kassadin is also quite easy to gank between levels 1-5 as he has no escape ability until 6 besides flash and he has to choose to silence either the jungler or the mid-laner. If you see that the enemy team has a Kassadin, try to get your jungler to camp mid-lane to shut him down early and prevent him from snowballing later.
