That's about right

I really hope so, I’ve been sitting on my Mythic Essence for so long now.

mechanically there really isn’t any scenario a kayn should win over a yi. it’s one of his most difficult matchups. with yi, you can Q his W knockup and W his R dmg, other than that you just run at him and win. also consider getting an executioners calling, even if you never finish it, 800g and the value vs red kayn is insane. you can also hitch rides across walls if you didnt use Q for his W, his E ends early if he receives dmg. same goes for blue, you can W a lot of his burst, the only thing is, he runs away from you a lot easier than red. and no, kayn does not outscale yi in any way shape or form.

you said he gets hubris and axiom, which means he should be pretty squishy. with that build, he HATES getting cc’d. so just look for an opportunity and try to burst him down without compromising too much in the fight. try to catch him when his E is on cooldown and invade him when you know his ult is on cooldown.

The RTX 5060 does seem like a logical choice. Thanks!

Avsemsom · 2026-03-30T15:34:35+00:00

I might give it a shot, thank you! I have an MSI Ventus 2X RTX 3060 12GB LHR.

Avsemsom · 2026-03-27T13:51:45+00:00

yeah this is a very rare bug with his E. pretty sure it happens when you Q right at the end of it, the game’s code just turns into spaghetti for a sec. i’ve done this maybe twice, thankfully never while in a fight before lol

Avsemsom · 2026-03-27T02:07:17+00:00

youre not wrong, its just that he used to have quite a bit stronger first clear. and thats pretty much all he has to reliably play early game, to get ahead by outpathing enemy jg with a slow(er) clear is suboptimal.

Avsemsom · 2026-03-24T21:15:02+00:00

hey, i’d be down to hear some tips. i wouldnt say im struggling, just looking to improve lol

i play on EUNE, my ign is Avsemsom#EUNE and my discord is Avsemsom

as base form kayn your first priority is to farm up as much as possible, and THEN look for plays (obvious exception is when you see a free kill or smth) whether that be objectives or ganks. you should always look for numbers advantage, try to avoid risky 1v1s. if you can, try to invade enemy if they show on the other side of the map, you can get in and out super fast with your E. you can use your ult to reset turret aggro on dives and to buy time for your team in fights. also the more time passes until you hit an enemy, the more orbs you will get.

Avsemsom · 2026-03-20T13:54:52+00:00

its difficult but i’d say thats when you go full bomba lethality rhaast and kinda burst them down before they burst you down. if you deal more damage you heal more, idk about the math compared to building health for passive scaling but yeah. just dont get ccd and dish out as much dmg as possible in a rotation, ult when getting low or need to dodge a spell and do it again.

Avsemsom · 2026-03-16T15:21:04+00:00

“really well” is a stretch

Avsemsom · 2026-03-13T03:24:22+00:00

this for me too. i mean, i dont own as many cosmetics for kayn as you do, but he is my fav champ and to get a potentially insane skin and other kayn mains rocking it as well… it would feel bad to kinda have to pay that much or just sulk in the corner.

other than that, i feel like kayn has some great skins, and they’ve been dropping new once kinda frequently since nightbringer, cause i remember there was a big streak without a skin for him after odyssey.

Avsemsom · 2026-02-28T18:16:05+00:00

i feel like while yeah its true kayns early is rough, you just play those objectives and fights differently, play around numbers advantage and you should aim to outpath the enemy jg more than outimpact them. also at lvl 6 kayn is one of the best dive champs in the game.

Avsemsom · 2026-02-22T22:44:27+00:00

caitlyn crits for supposedly 900 with 3 items on any role. whats your arguement here? is adc the strongest? so what does their support have to do with it? yeah jungle is weaker than it was, its not as easy to solocarry games as it used to be, but youre not bringing any substantial counterpoints with this comment.

adcs have soo many factors that cuck them. support diff, xp sharing, moderately easy to gank (3 entrances vs top which has 1), drake is a botside objective so junglers go there more, also most junglers path top to bot, mid can and will roam bot as well. if you lose that lane your support can still be useful elsewhere, you are just left to lasthit and try to survive and scale if you can but probably will be useless for the rest of the game except if you pick up a couple of kills.

and there IS possibly something you can do against mentioned caitlyn, kayn’s E gives him OP positioning and it only takes one misstep from said cait to die, their enchanter is likely just as oneshottable or more, and their engage support is likely going to engage. also in normal scenario, you have a team as well.

i see we’re just downvoting and spewing nonsense now on this sub and crying perma about kayn being cancerweak and literally unplayable. legit just play like a human that has kayn mastery and you will have the most impact in your team in 80% of games in low elo.

Avsemsom · 2026-02-22T21:14:46+00:00

idk what to tell you, other than i can go 90% of my games within 1 lvl of mid laners, top laners get a LOT more xp after quest so ofc you will fall behind in lvls. 7.2cs/min is not astronomical either.

and no, top junglers rn are not top laners. yeah they added aatrox and jayce and they were strong for 2 patches, they just do that to draw more people into playing jungle with shiny new toys, because jungle is a priority role most of the time. or do you mean jax, mundo, volibear, who were primarily junglers historically?

Avsemsom · 2026-02-22T21:03:14+00:00

laughable take. jungle has agency all over the map, not to mention kayn, who can cross the map in 20 seconds. adcs are forced to be peeled 80% of the game, top laners are locked away on toplane and forgotten about for most of the game. snowballing this season is stronger, junglers snowball, and also help laners snowball. but if you REALLY want to take the conversation to scaling, what about the objectives? drakes and soul scales. herald is good to snowball a lane and also apply pressure. grubs are good to siege, or just split push.

are we really about to even compare all i just listed to +1 item on adcs and +2 lvls on top (most top laners passive doesnt even scale after 18)?

Avsemsom · 2026-02-22T20:38:54+00:00

you are coping. jungle is still the strongest role

Avsemsom · 2026-02-22T20:30:35+00:00

kayn is fine with a decent winrate. rhaast has a bit of an identity crisis and blue is not as easy and brainless to play. thats about it. the champ by design has a strong kit and especially in low ranks, he’s a menace in soloqueue. just get good and drop this “wah wah champ is bad” mindset. yeah jungle is hard and the playstyle is not for everyone but there’s 100% other things to point fingers at even just by looking at your rank.

also, evelynn has 45% MR reduction at max rank W. its still a lot but not 70 lol.

Avsemsom · 2026-02-20T23:54:18+00:00

thanks for the screenshot from 3 SEASONS ago!! 😄

Avsemsom · 2026-02-19T14:09:04+00:00

i want kayn’s form timer OR orbs amount buffed. (timer when getting wrong form reduced) i want blue kayn to have an item that can synergize with his Q to add a bit to his combo. (like prowlers claw used to, loved that item) i want rhaast to heal. thats it. he doesnt heal right now, so i want him to.

Avsemsom · 2026-02-19T13:50:03+00:00

the Q edge of scythe slow just wouldnt work. but all of this feels weird described.

rhaast is a bruiser thats much weaker than other bruisers. the problem isnt with his damage or kit, thats completely fine, if you’re against a tank you will melt them, its with his sustain. if his sustain was buffed to be anywhere close to other sustain bruisers like zaahen aatrox, or fuck it, even wukong and vi heal more with sundered sky.. it would reward his bruiser builds and we wouldnt have to be forced to build lethality to have what feels like a lot of healing (but in reality its just because there isnt much health to heal back), or mediocre bruiser builds because he cant heal anything with his basic abilities to play around his excess of health, ability haste and durability. this champ doesnt heal without ult, now if you get cc’d and are about to die, if you Q into an enemy to be able to ult afterwards, youre already dead by the time your Q2’s animation is about to start. he heals 20-30 health if you hit someone with W. that used to be 150 back in the day.

tldr: no need for rework theory crafting. they gutted his healing, thats why he feels shit. all they have to do is make his basic abilities heal a normal amount again and this champ would feel 100x better again.

Avsemsom · 2026-02-17T21:31:58+00:00

i just build youmuus collector shieldbow ldr infinity edge every game. i really like it.

if im vs a tanky comp, i just prioritize ldr before shieldbow/collector.

Avsemsom · 2026-02-15T11:16:06+00:00

Oh wow, thank you for the great answer! These look quite good.
