Alternate Cassio Build

Alternate Cassio Build

I've recently started maining Cassio - (she's fun xD)
I've been playing in Emerald Elo (flex so a grain of salt with this since its not solo queue, not confident enough in my skill yet) and usually in mid lane, but occasionally in bot when filled secondary role.

At first I build ROA - Rylai - Seraph but I felt I had NO damage unless very fed and ahead
(i was probably missing a lot of q's tbf and im still learning best w usage and timing)

SO

I switched to a more conventional dps build with magic pen and high ap ratios

Blackfire - Stormsurge - Void staff = the core of my build
- the mana and burn on blackfire are very nice for lane and poke
- stormsurge move speed and pen is good
- void staff for early anti-mr pivot
- sorc shoes for even more shred

three levels in q before maxing e for good poke with deathfire touch and scorch

this build feels way way way way better and nicer to play with the condition that you are VERY VERY squishy and burstable so NEED to hit q's for movespeed to stay alive

As a very new Cassio main I wanted to know if I should use this crutch of a build or if I should just learn to play the normal ROA - Seraph - Ryali with swift march build as the higher elo i go the more teams will just focus burst me with point click CC's

Here is my OP.gg for any tips that might help: https://u.gg/lol/profile/euw1/yourbabygirl-sub/overview

p.s. also open to any other tips and tricks that a new cassio main might need to know tyyy

Main ADC looking to understand Cassiopeia as an APC.

So ive been trying APC on bot (not because of the meta, was looking for a change in traditional adcs). Tried Vel Koz and had huge success with him. Climbed from Gold to Emerald. Started recently to play Cassi, getting better and better (I think).

Overall I start pretty weak in early until level 3 where I put 2 levels into E. Then I usually get a kill or a summ (Depending also on the supp synergy). I do fairly fine, good cs, rarely feed.

My build path is Archangels Staff / Liandrys Torment or Rylais / Liandrys Torment or Rylais / Deathcap or Zhonyas / next are situational, have not figured out yet the last 2 items. I don't really like ROA, not sure why. (Would appreciate any help with the build path as well)

The issues that I have is that with Vel Koz I am fine staying solo in lane. I can usually get a kill in a 1v2. With cassiopeia thats not the case, I struggle with range, getting outpoked if supp leaves and it mostly feels like the same issues adcs are going through. Also I rarely get the highest damage in the game. I could finish 15/3 get S+ and have 30k damage as opposed to a mid laner whose 9/5 plays a burst mage and gets 30k+ (Is this an issue?)

I could play her mid or top but looking to find if apc can also be a thing as I prefer bot overall. Would be happy to receive any tips on Cassiopeia bot, thank you.

Was Cassiopeia’s R-reverse flash interaction removed?

I’m pretty sure this still worked about 3 months ago. If you cast Cassiopeiae's R close to her, facing toward the enemy, and then flashed further up, it would create the "reverse R" animation while still stunning/petrifying the enemy.

Did Riot remove this interaction, or am I just doing it wrong now?
