Kassadin normally has a much larger longest killing spree than his opponent does. Typically, Kassadin takes more damage than Zyra. This is usually reflective of differing health capacities, but it can also indicate that the champion with more health has less agility and thus is not able to kite away from additional harm when engaged or poked.
