am I the only one who thinks kayns transformation contingency is sort of.....well poorly thought

I'm interested in what others think, I've been playing a lot of Kayne lately I love him as a champion, I love his skills lore skin etc. ( except the shadow assasin soul hunter yuck). But to me the way his you gather for your transformation to me seems just sort of......silly. I mean give me your opinions here but, it seems silly to me that depending on who I'm fighting most is who I transform into. Here is the conundrum I typically face. Example let's say I'm shitting all over the enemy bot lane and put them to far behind to be a factor(obviously shadow assasin is the passive gained) but the enemy team has 2-3 tanks or bruisers, and maybe one is doing well so it would make sense to be rhaast, since the enemy bot is no longer a threat, To me it seems silly that I now have to wait out a timer to choose the form that i would like. I understand it makes for more interesting lore or immersion maybe but to me like I said it seems counter intuitive, does anyone else dislike this about him for one reason or another or am I alone on that lol

It is certainly poorly implemented with o ly on passive bar visible

Uhm, no. I disagree. The whole "attacking a certain type of enemy champion to determine what form you get" determines what lanes you are going to gank. Do they have a overall tanky team? Camp the melee top laner and transform into Rhaast. Do they have a squishy team? Camp the ranged mid laner and transform into Shadow Assassin. If players could just choose which form they want regardless of who they fought prior to this moment, then that destroys a huge part of Kayn's unique playstyle. Saying you should be able to choose your form regardless of you fought, is the same as saying you want to be able to choose your form at the beginning of the game. I think you should be grateful for even being able to take the form you want regardless of who you've fought in the first place.
