The evolution mechanic works because you offer players a choice. The issue with Cassiopeia at the moment is that old fans miss her poison playstyle whereas her new/some old fans like that her Twin Fang playstyle is now strong - but Riot's current direction appears to be to just keep buffing both until she can do both at the same time, which will only lead to eventual nerfs. By offering players the choice they can either focus on early game poison or early game Twin Fang, and then become the same champion late game.

As for ripping off Kha'Zix and Viktor - I think the three mechanics scale differently enough that it's fine (level, gold and game time).
