Hey, kayn isnt a bit weak this patch, or I am the onlyone with negative win rate

He has been better, but I think Rhaast is still super strong with the right items.

What do you mean electrocute is the best option for Rhaast? Seems a bit outdated, no offense

Great guide! I saw a typo somewhere in the basic Kayn ability section, but I cannot remember where I saw it. Have you considered Abyssal Mask for Shadow Assassin as a substitute for Maw of Malmortius? Maw gives 400~ shield every 90 seconds if you drop low enough. Abyssal Mask has the potential to give 140 health back every 10 seconds. This is sustainable if in combat because you receive 20% of the damage you take as mana. The 10% damage increase also amounts to 50 - 100 damage more a combo. (Assuming you are using your full combo.) I have just spent the last 2 hours doing the math. I did not take into account Black Cleaver armor shred. I brought this up because it might help the Shadow Assassin partake in some of Rhaast's ability to "outlast" as you put it in later games vs. sustain AP champions. Please let me know what you think of my idea! ^_^ ( I found the typo ) "That doesn't mean it's useless im combat though"

Thanks for pointing out the typo. With several thousand words a slip-up or several will happen.

I've been asked a lot about SV so AM is probably in a similar boat to it.

I'll update my guide next patch to cover matchups and full defence items for magic damage (hint, they're not as good as maw in nearly every scenario) which is especially true for the SA. I've done a huge expanation (twice I think) on SV for Rhaast, and I'll be addiing a more condensed version of that to the guide. I will be doing the same for SV/AM and AH as I do not cover any pure MR defence items in the guide whereas I do cover pure armour defence items, which leaves a lot of questions.
