Kassadin: The Voidwalker
Kassadin, also known as the Voidwalker, is a powerful mage hailing from the void. He is a melee assassin with exceptional mobility and burst damage, making him a formidable force in the game. Kassadin's lore is deeply intertwined with the void, a dark and dangerous dimension that threatens to consume Runeterra.
In the game, Kassadin's abilities revolve around manipulating the void to deal damage and disrupt his enemies. His passive, Void Stone, grants him a shield that absorbs magic damage, making him resilient against mages. His Q ability, Null Sphere, fires an orb of void energy that damages and silences his target. His W ability, Nether Blade, empowers his next basic attack to deal bonus magic damage and restore mana.
Kassadin's E ability, Force Pulse, releases a wave of void energy that damages and slows all enemies in a cone in front of him. Finally, his ultimate ability, Riftwalk, allows him to blink through the void, instantly teleporting to a target location and dealing damage to nearby enemies upon arrival. This ability can be cast multiple times in quick succession, making Kassadin incredibly elusive and difficult to catch.
As a champion, Kassadin excels at diving into the backline and assassinating high-priority targets. His mobility and burst damage make him a nightmare for squishy carries, as he can quickly close the gap and eliminate them before they have a chance to react. However, Kassadin's early game can be challenging, as he is relatively weak before he reaches his power spikes.
In the lore of League of Legends, Kassadin has a tragic past. He was once a normal man named Malzahar, who became obsessed with the void and its dark powers. In his pursuit of forbidden knowledge, he inadvertently opened a portal to the void, unleashing its horrors upon the world. The void consumed his homeland, leaving it a desolate wasteland.
Kassadin, driven by guilt and a desire for revenge, dedicated his life to fighting the void and protecting Runeterra from its influence. He became a Voidwalker, harnessing the void's power to combat its own abominations. Kassadin's journey is one of sacrifice and redemption, as he battles against the void's relentless onslaught.

Lore:
Cutting a burning swath through the darkest places of the world, Kassadin knows his days are numbered. A widely traveled Shuriman guide and adventurer, he had chosen to raise a family among the peaceful southern tribes—until the day his village was consumed by the Void. He vowed vengeance, combining a number of arcane artifacts and forbidden technologies for the struggle ahead. Finally, Kassadin set out for the wastelands of Icathia, ready to face any monstrous Void-construct in his search for their self-proclaimed prophet, Malzahar.
Ally tips:
Kassadin has multiple item paths; he can go caster via Mana and Ability Power or anti-caster with Cooldown Reduction and Magic Resist. Kassadin's ultimate has many uses and is on a shorter cooldown than most, use it often. Try to get the Ancient Golem buff to counteract Riftwalk's increasing Mana cost.
Enemy tips:
Kassadin deals mostly magic damage. If he's doing well consider buying magic resist items like Mercury's Treads and Banshee's Veil.Each time Kassadin consecutively uses Riftwalk, he pays more and more mana. Keep this in mind as you chase him.It takes 6 spell casts for Kassadin's slow, Force Pulse, to become castable. If he levels up that ability, judiciously use your own skills while laning against him.
