| Stage | Favoured | Why |
|---|---|---|
| Level 1 | Qiyana | You dominate level 1 against a farm-only, dashless Kassadin. |
| Level 2 | Qiyana | At 2 he still cannot punish or escape your aggression. |
| Level 3 | Qiyana | Level 3 gives you the all-in tools he has no answer to. |
| Levels 4-5 | Qiyana | Levels 4-5 pre-6 Kassadin has no dash to survive your combo. |
| Level 6 | Qiyana | At 6 you still out-fight him before Riftwalk scales. |
| First item | Qiyana | First-item Qiyana out-duels an unscaled Kassadin. |
| Two+ items | Kassadin | 2+ items and stacked Riftwalks let Kassadin out-scale and escape you. |
Kassadin is at his weakest here and you punish it hard: at levels 1-2 he can only farm with Null Sphere while you contest every wave. Shove and deny him CS so his scaling clock starts as late as possible.
