Can outfight you since he has the damage advantage and his damage is getting increased if his HP gets lower and lower. Just be careful when you meet him or you will die.
Volibear
Even in the beginning, might change to minor or major/extreme depending on the situation. You guys have basically the same damage if he's not hitting his E. Make sure to avoid his Ult or/and E.
Warwick
Never go Shadow Assassin against Warwick, he will instakill you and you can't deal any damage towards him if he's completely fed. Always go Rhaast against him so you can fight him extended, same as Trundle matchup, go for Goredrinker and Death's Dance as the first two items.
Trundle
Will outfight you if you play Shadow Assassin. He will also outfight you if you're the weak jungle side (even as Rhaast) by using his Ultimate, beware that you can outfight him if you build Goredrinker, Death's Dance and Black Cleaver on Rhaast, cause the first 2 items are completely busted on Rhaast and the Cleaver is there just to reduce his armor in order to increase your damage onto him.
Swain
Major in the beginning, but becomes weaker over time compared to you. I've outplayed and outfighted a swain while playing my self made Tank Kayn Build, it was just hilarious how he was barely able to kill me even with his jungler, but make sure to avoid any CC by any circumstances as it will help him to outdamage you in the laning phase.
Darius
Will outfight you in the early game and maybe in the mid/late game depending if he's above you with anything or below. But if he gets his Hemorrhage fully stacked on you, then beware of receiving a Camille Q on his Ultimate (which is at least more balanced than Camille). Do not cheese him under any circumstances unless he sucks and gets beaten by you!
Cho'Gath
Will be annoying with his Q, but it's pretty easy to dodge. Make sure to avoid long fights if you ever wanted to go Shadow Assassin in the match, because they have 4 squishy's in their comp, cause Cho'gath is made to fend off the squishy champions as a tank and nowadays as a tank + damage dealing meta build champion. I still recommend on going rhaast to kill him easy, also taking Cut Down instead of Last Stand in order to kill him faster. He'll be Major+ if you messed up and Minor or less if you did everything right.
Camille
Will beat you no matter what. It's a 200 years of never being nerfed again champion because of the low-rate of popularity and the "balanced" Win Rate Camille mains have done. I recommend to swap with one of your teammates who can fight against her or just farm under turret until you know you deal her enough damage.
Illaoi
Pretty much even when going rhaast, will or can outfight you in the laning phase. If she's able to combo you correctly you're most likely dead and should consider of safe farming in the game, if she sucks, then avoid her E and go all-in as a Rhaast. (Shadow Assassin not recommended)
He might be able to CC you, but he does not a lot of damage to kill you. Just be careful when you meet him cause another enemy (his mate) can come and help him out in order to kill you. I also recommend on going Rhaast over Shadow Assassin as Amumu is a Tank.
Dr. Mundo
Will only outfight you if you do a lot of mistakes or if he's fed. He'll be easier to fight once you get Rhaast, since Rhaast is capable of doing Max Health Damage on Q and also on his Ultimate (Ultimate does most Max Health Damage of all time).
Ekko
He's in the early a bit stronger than you + make sure you outfarm him and gank more often than him so you have a free dominating lane and he will fall off very easily. I also recommend on visiting his jungle side sometimes to take CS away it will keep your CS upwards and his downwards.
Elise
Easy to beat with any form and any damage related item you build, most likely I go rhaast cause of their team comp. But you can also instakill her in your Shadow Assassin form, so go all-in like on Evelynn.
Evelynn
She has been nerfed by the durability update, she cannot burst as much as she used to do, bully her as much as you want with the Rhaast form or even Shadow Assassin. Go full out on her cause she will fall in the late game.
Fiddlesticks
Can out damage you by his W Ability (Bountiful Harvest) when being close at you + a camp or a Dragon. He'll literally deal no damage to you when you play Rhaast, where he drops down to Minor or even Tiny. In Shadow Assassin, you've to be fed if you want to make a Fiddler down to Minor or Tiny Threat.
Gragas
Gragas is a champ that will be very annoying at the early phase due to his CC. But afterwards you can outfight him before he can do anything due to the lack of hitting someone sometimes and doing less damage in late compared to early. Make sure to advance to rhaast if you meet a good gragas, if not, you can go Shadow Assassin also.
Graves
If fed: major+, if not even or lower cause he can't deal damage to you anymore when you're fed. Can or will be problematic tho if the game advances in the late while he keeps up his CS. He might be able to do something and make a turn around and changing his threat then to Major+.
Hecarim
You deal more damage with your combos than him healing against you, but you're still pretty even in the game. He might be a drop-off in the late game compared to you when playing Rhaast with a good made build.
Ivern
Since his "rework" came, he's capable to challenge you at Level 6 if you have no form, also if he properly kites you and beat the living shit out of you, he'll be a threat to you. He falls off once you have one of your forms, cause you'll kill him immediately.
Jarvan IV
He can beat you very easily, it becomes more dangerously if he's fed and has his ult. Be careful when fighting him. If you get hunted by him anyways just surrender at the given time.
Karthus
Depends if he's fed, but he's really really easy to beat when he does his ultimate, doing his slow or Q. He won't deal much damage if you dodge everything properly.
Kha'Zix
I put him in major, because he can be beaten if he does not have isolated damage on you + if you play rhaast you can win the 1v1 even in his isolation.
Volibear
Even in the beginning, might change to minor or major/extreme depending on the situation. You guys have basically the same damage if he's not hitting his E. Make sure to avoid his Ult or/and E.
Lillia
She will clearly outfight you once she has given the proper ganks and gained kills, she'll potentially outfight you completely by just hitting E and R and then W.
Rengar
Rengar will just clap you away when he's 1 item above you, if you even go Rhaast you're dead. Might have changed due to the durability patch, I sadly see barely rengar players, so I won't change this threat level at all.
Olaf
New Olaf is completely busted, you MAY kill him if you're literally 3 items ahead of him and being rhaast, but he will for sure outfight you under any circumstances, because of his overshield + lifesteal and unstoppable ult. Beware if you meet him, just outplay him and you're good to go.
Shaco
He's a clown who is only dangerous if he's full burst AP or crit/lethality AD Clown. He makes his threat level under these conditions to Major+. If he's not fed in the right time, you can outfight him and he's then a minor or even a tiny threat.
Nocturne
Blue Kayn is a dangerous pick against a noc who plays bruiser, make sure to know which path you choose when meeting the noc by checking his commonly build items. If he's going bruiser then I recommend you to go rhaast, if he play lethality noc go rhaast or shadow assassin (dependant on the team comp). Also, Noc will for sure out gank you and much more, do not face him early because of his fear and free shield.
Trundle
Will outfight you if you play Shadow Assassin. He will also outfight you if you're the weak jungle side (even as Rhaast) by using his Ultimate, beware that you can outfight him if you build Goredrinker, Death's Dance and Black Cleaver on Rhaast, cause the first 2 items are completely busted on Rhaast and the Cleaver is there just to reduce his armor in order to increase your damage onto him.
