@Riot - Pretty Disappointed That Kayn is a Jungler

I want to preface this by saying that this thread is not an attempt at bashing Kayn or the people who worked on him. He seems to be genuinely interesting - likely broken at the moment - but very interesting and unique. However, it appears that he likely has to jungle if he wants to be as flexible as possible with his passive.

Since the release of Zed, I have been waiting for years for the next true AD Assassin that I can lane with. Unfortunately, it doesn't appear that Kayn is that assassin. Although I'm aware that Riot is hesitant about releasing too many assassins, I'd really appreciate it if the next assassin you release is an AD assassin that people can lane with.

Did you know.... Jayce was originally announced as a jungler? You can play him wherever you want. Bring him midlane if you want.

TLDR

Zed got nerfed Riot release another AD assassin that I can press 2 buttons with at level 3 and get first blood everytime because Talon got nerfed to.

If you play him top you just have to wait 4 mins after your passive is ready then you can still choose blue. 4 mins is a bit of a disadvantage, but when you consider you also get to lane trade for passive it about even it out. He's not really held to jung imo.

I don't think Kayn was supposed to be a real jungler, of course he can clear the camps really fast... But didn't Riot said something about releasing a Jungler that feels at home in the Jungle? I personally don't see this for Kayn.
