Lucian vs Kassadin

Confidence mediumUpdated Jun 10, 2026

Overview

Use early level 2 power spike to force short trades and deny Kassadin free farm.
Prioritize aggressive wave control to pressure Kassadin before he hits level 6 mobility.
Avoid extended fights where (R) mobility and burst outmatch your short range.

Trading pattern

Win burst trades by dashing in with (E) after support setup, then use passive double shots and (Q).
Avoid trading after using (E) forward without cooldown advantage to prevent punishment.
Punish Kassadin when he mispositions behind low-health minions with (Q) through the wave.

Danger windows

Kassadin's level 6 (R) unlocks burst and mobility; avoid extended trades during this window.
(Q) shield absorbs magic damage; avoid committing when it's up.
Overextending after using (E) forward exposes you to Kassadin's counter-engage or jungle ganks.

Early game

Contest level 2 with support setup to punish Kassadin's weak early wave control.
Thin or crash waves to prevent Kassadin from safely farming near tower.
Reset timing should align with your first marksman item spike to maintain lane pressure.

Power spikes

Level 2 grants strong dash and passive burst to force Kassadin off the wave early.
First completed marksman item amplifies burst trades, enabling forced recalls or lane control.
Level 6 (R) allows Kassadin to engage or escape, so respect his mobility window.

Win conditions

Convert early lane dominance into kills or forced recalls before Kassadin scales.
Use support synergy to trigger short burst trades and maintain lane priority.
Crash waves before all-ins to minimize minion damage and deny Kassadin safe farming.

Tip: For Lucian vs Kassadin, read overview, trading pattern, and danger windows first for a fast Mid lane check.
