Her root duration as well as her spell shield is enough to either get you killed or stop you from getting a kill. Build edge of night and Maw if going Shadow Assassin, or build Mercury Treads and Spirit Visage if going Rhaast
Ryze
Ryze can kite you easily no matter what form you go. He also builds seraphs and zhonyas which makes it so much more harder to kill him. I suggest camping his lane and building maw or spirit visage depending on what form you go.
Katarina
She is not fun to play against as both forms. She can one shot you as Shadow Assassin, as well as give you a 60% healing debuff when you try to play Rhaast. Your best bet is to go blue form and attempt to one shot her.
Malzahar
This champ will ruin your game as Kayn if you are not careful. As Shadow Assassin build edge of night and Maw if he is fed. As Rhaast build visage and attempt to W him as he presses R on you, this will cancel the Ultimate.
Lux
Lux's shield can be very frustrating when playing Shadow Assassin. Avoid getting stunned and bait out the shield by weaving through walls.
Garen
Going against a Garen as shadow assassin is rough, he tanks your full combo, and his silence lasts long enough for him to kill you and not allow you to use your ultimate. 100% Go Rhaast when they have a Garen and take blue smite.
Thresh
Avoid his CC and you will be fine, get hooked and your dead.
Anivia
Her ult can be very annoying for both forms. Don't let her get ahead and you'll be fine.
Dr. Mundo
Not fun as Blue to play against as Shadow Assassin, go Rhaast and consider a Mortal Reminder.
Soraka
Can save the ADC's life by pressing R. Build an executioners.
Tryndamere
This matchup is hard if you dont know how to match him, all you have to do is ult when he ults and then comeout when his ultimate is done and kill him.
Kindred
Kindred will demolish you in the early game, she can kite you very easily. Avoid her pre 6. Once you get ultimate make sure to only ult when she places her ultimate down, this will not allow her to get extra damage on you and might lead to an easy kill.
Vayne
A good Vayne will not get hit by any of your abilities and rip you to shreds. Go blue smite and engage her with smite and then instantly ult, this will leave you in melee range and easier to kill her. Going Shadow Assassin against her is ideal.
Shaco
Watch out for his boxes when playing Shadow Assassin, they can ruin you when trying to flank.
Yuumi
Having this Cat on your back is such a huge help no matter what form you picked. You will sustain in fights better then Vlad as Rhaast, and you will destroy any squishy as blue kayn and do it with full health.
Yasuo
As Rhaast, having a Yasuo on your team to ult of your W knockup can be a game changer. His windwall can save your life no matter what form you pick as well.
Malphite
Probably the best champ you can ask for when playing Kayn, his ult lets you get a free shot at most of the team with your W and Q. Take cheap shot when teamed with a Malphite.
Qiyana
Great Ultimate that allows you to get a free aoe combo off. Take cheap shot instead of sudden impact
Vladimir
Having a Vlad use his ultimate on a group of people allows for a huge amount of damage from you and the rest of your team.
Pyke
Hes a good champ to clean up when you do not do enough damage to one shot.
Karthus
Good clean up champion like pyke.
Alistar
A good Alistar will provide a good enough engage for you to start fighting without getting killed.
