Red vs Blue Kayn

Pros of doing Blue kayn:
Shadow Kayn: Great at assassinating targets. Good when ahead. Bad against tanks and some bruisers. Can get countered hard and one shot if CCed.

Pros of doing Red kayn:
Darkin: Great at frontlining. Deals nicely with tanks and most bruisers. Wants to get focused unlike Shadow just to heal up and make their spells go to waste. Provides CC (knockup).

Things you wanna take into consideration
Look at the enemy, see 4 squishies and think, well Shadow. However, what if you team only has squishies too? Maybe some CC bruiser wouldn't be that bad right.

Shadow Kayn is only really exceptional if ahead.

If for some reason you're behind or get behind while still choosing Shadow, you're gonna have a bad time.

In general, it is ok in most scenarios to go Darkin, even if Shadow would have been ever so slightly better. However, going Shadow is only good in few scenarios

How to team fight as Blue Kayn

As blue kayn you wanna look for a flank

You wanna flank as blue kayn with your E through a wall and then W Q R onto the target you wanna assasinate

Blue kayn is pretty much straight forward
Back to Top

How to team fight as Red Kayn

Team fighting as red kayn is a little more tricky

It basically depends on your team comp

If you are your main source of engage you wanna build tank and look for a good W knock up in team fights and be the one starting the fight

If you are not your main source of engage you might wanna look for either a flank on the enemy back line or peel for your carries with W knock up

Kayn patch updates

Patch 8.17

Kayn
E duration increased early. Shadow E movement speed increased.

Kayn, especially as Shadow Assassin, is struggling to stay competitive with other junglers. This buff should help him move around the map (and through terrain) and extend his opportunities to pick up kills.
E - Shadow Step
DURATION 5/6/7/8/9 seconds ⇒ 7/7.5/8/8.5/9 seconds
SHADOW ASSASSIN BONUS MOVEMENT SPEED 70% ⇒ 80%
