XSmithe is constantly involved in shenanigans this game.
Kassadin rework on the PBE; I like the look of it but something scares me.
Passive loses bonus AS on being hit, but gains ignores movement collison
Q no longer silences. Instead it interuppts channels, and gives Kassadin a sheild equal to 0.7 Mana
W gives autoattacks 30/45/60/75/90 (+0.3*Mana) as a passive. As an active the next autoattack deals 24/33/42/51/60 bonus magic damage and restores 8/11/14/17/20 % of his missing Mana. This mana bonus is triples against champions, so Kassadin can regain 60% of his mana in a single autoattack. It also now costs 0 mana
E is the same
R R scales with 0.1 mana now, and dosen't ramp damage.
Here's the problem.
Kassadin's base mana at Lv 18 = 275 + [45*18]
Rod of Ages fully stacked = 650
Lichbane = 250
Total Mana [Without Seraph's!]: 1,985
0.7 of this is 1,389.5
1.4 K SHEILDS EVERY 9 ~ 5.4 SECONDS. SEEMS BALANCED RIOT.
But what; there's more.
1,985 * 0.3 = 595.5 damage oer autoattaclk [+90 = 685.5]
SEEMS BALANCED RIOT. [And this dosen't factor in the active bonus or Lichbane!]
Seriously, why is it every time Riot attempts to balance Kassadin they make him WORSE?!
I like the Q change. I like the mana scaleing.
BUT DAMN IS THIS STUPIDLY HIGH.

Apparently Kassadin's causing the PBE to crash now and his numbers are all over the place.
