Kayn gets red form from melee champs and blue form from ranged champs. However, that's not the only way you can determine how to get form. For example, if they have a hyperscale champion like Veigar and another heavy AP mage such as Lux but 3 melee champions. It may be beneficial to go blue Kayn. One shotting squishies like those two can benefit the team greatly since they have heavy damage/cc. Blue Kayn is best when ahead, if the match up doesn't look great for you you'd probably be safer going red Kayn seeing as he's slightly tankier and has more sustain. As blue Kayn you never want to try and gank cc lanes without E, you're also squishy and getting cced against fed laners is almost a guaranteed kill for them if you can't get near a wall fast enough. Red Kayn is a great frontliner, if you see the enemy team and they have four squishies you'd automatically think blue Kayn, however, if your team has squishies too red Kayn might be better. In general, it is ok in most scenarios (like 90% of the time) to go red, even if blue would have been ever so slightly better. However, going blue is only good in few scenarios since he's also squishy and can't really be 100% in team fights. if you know the game is going late choose red form unless they have all squishy characters on their team. If your team needs a frontline go red Kayn. If you are losing the game and it's starting to snowball out of hand when you get your first form just choose whatever is available because you need the power now to potentially bring the game back. If you get fed and think you are going to be able to snowball the game quickly try your best to get blue or they have multiple priority squishy targets on the enemy team go blue. Also if you have a tanky top lane and support preferably ones who can initiate blue form is also a good option. Don't forget that Rhaast's ultimate heals himself for a percentage max health of your target which makes it pretty good against tanks. Don't always listen to what your team says about your form because you're the one who's going to master the champion, try and figure out what does and doesn't work in games based on the content listed previously.
