Kha'Zix Counters Classic 26.22
Isolation is the whole game against Kha'Zix: Taste Their Fear hits far harder when no ally is standing near you. Stay paired, and deny him the kill, because Leap resets on a takedown and that is how a single pick becomes a chain.
The play Give Leap a wider berth once he takes Evolve Wings, because that range grows dramatically.

How to Counter Kha'Zix in LoL Classic
Counter guideKha'Zix opens these three lanes on his own terms, and each of them takes something back. Lee Sin runs away with it, kicking Kha'Zix out of the landing he chose with 
Dragon's Rage. Jax grows harder to burst as his items arrive, and the lane clearly favors him for it. Demacian Justice waits at sword range for a melee assassin who has to arrive there anyway, and that hands Garen a firm edge.
Playing Lee Sin into Kha'Zix
Safeguard / Iron Will can have armor on Lee Sin before Kha'Zix commits to the jump.

Whenever Kha'Zix puts a rank of 
Void Assault into Evolve Active Camouflage, he gets three casts of it and takes reduced damage while stealthed. Hit him in the gaps between those casts, while he is visible. Lead with an ability, and 
Flurry has your swings ready for him.
Void Spike heals Kha'Zix when he is standing inside his own explosion, so a trade fought right on top of you feeds him. 
Sonic Wave / Resonating Strike adds eight percent of his missing health to the dash, so throw the wave at a Kha'Zix those spikes have not refilled.
When 
Leap puts Kha'Zix on top of an ally, 
Safeguard / Iron Will takes Lee Sin to that same ally with a barrier over the pair of them. Dragon's Rage then sends Kha'Zix back out of the fight he jumped into. Go to the ally first, then kick.

Playing Jax into Kha'Zix
Kha'Zix takes health out of Void Spike at exactly the range Jax needs him to stand.

Kha'Zix arrives against your slowest swings, and he does not get another chance at that speed. Grandmaster's Might speeds them up as they land, so the longer he stays in front of you, the worse each second gets for him.
Equipment Mastery keeps raising the health Kha'Zix has to get through. The burst that would have killed Jax early lands short of the same job later. So the shopping list does not change. Take the fights you were going to take. The gap widens from there.
Jax cannot swing at a target he is not standing beside, so this trade happens at the range where Void Spike puts health back into Kha'Zix. Take it anyway. He leaves with health he did not have, and you leave with the longer fight.
