        Not the author's. This is a 21/0/9 AP assassin page for the author's Sorcerer's Shoes, Rabadon's Deathcap, Void Staff, Rod of Ages, and Seraph's Embrace build. Offense takes magic penetration, AP scaling, CDR, Archmage, and Executioner, while Utility adds mana and summoner cooldown value for a mana-stacking Kassadin. Inferred from the build and text they did publish.

        • Null Sphere (Q) takes points at levels 1, 3, 5, 7, 9.
        • Nether Blade (W) takes points at levels 2, 14, 15, 17, 18.
        • Force Pulse (E) takes points at levels 4, 8, 10, 12, 13.
        • Riftwalk (R) takes points at levels 6, 11, 16.

        Not the author's. This maxes Null Sphere first for mid-lane silence and burst with Sorcerer's Shoes and early AP, then Force Pulse for fights once Kassadin has mana and AP from Rod of Ages and Seraph's Embrace. Inferred from the build and text they did publish.

        What the guide does not publish: the guide shows its rune page as an image and never names the runes; the guide never fills in an ability sequence.
