I started playing league Season 2 but stopped playing because my computer was bad AF. Thats why i stopped playing in Season 2. I retuned to league Season 7. I made new account and got to lv 30. On the first placements i got Bronze 5 on flex and Bronze 1 solo/duo. I was kinda trolling bec i had no game knowledge and played things like Amumu or Poppy Support. I played only normal games for around 5 months and my game knowledge improved so well. I started to ward,look at minimap,etc. After struggeling i got out of bronze,but silver was literally same as bronze.When i got Silver 3 season 7 ended. Season 8 was the season of success for me. I did placements 6-4 and i got placed Silver 5. In the summer of Season 8 i went from Silver 4 to Silver 2 so quickly. Then i got to promos for Gold 5 (my aim for the season was gold)and i got so excited i love to play Jhin and i played Jhin in my Gold promos. Thats how i got to Gold 5. Thats a little bit of myself. As of 28/07/19 im Plat 3 in my main account.
Sometimes i stream. Follow me if u want: twitch.tv/holidayuniverse

You can pick Kayn in almost every game because of his flexibility . He can go tank if ur team needs one or assassin. U wont be able to pick him only if ur team doesnt have Ap champion. Kayn can be so effective in low ELO because in both forms he has so good damage output. In Rhaast (Red) form he has godlike sustain. U can 1v5 their team if ur fed and they dont have executioner's to reduce your healing or vayne to shred you down. Assassin form can be so effective due to its snowballing potential. If u get 2 kills in front of their jungle , u can invade him and kill him every time unless he is amumu or warwick. U can pretty much win the game before 25 min if u are snowballing and getting objectives well.

+ Ganks easy with his ![]() + Good Jungle Clear + Has Tank and Assassin form + Fits good in every team + Good sustain in Rhaast form + Can switch turret aggro with ![]() Ganking with Kayn is so easy due to his ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() |
- Weak when in regular form - ![]() - Mana hungry champion - True damage is so strong vs Kayn - If Shadow Assassin gets caught, he is most likely dead - Has some so bad matchups in the jungle Kayn has so bad early game while he is in his regular form. He can get 1v1'd by almost everyone at this point. On darkin form u dont want to see ![]() ![]() |

Cheese Route: Enemy Raptors -> Level up E and if you are fast enough smite his red -> get back to your side of the jungle (depending on blue or red side)
