What's your thoughts on Kayn right now? I'm personally not impressed right now.
I'm really excited about his release and his kit seems really interesting and fun. I haven't been able to play him much but I've come across some things to note so far that I'd like to get others' opinions on.
Praises:
- He be edgy
- His e is great for roaming
- Darkin form is badass
- He is a jungler Gripes/Concerns:
- His Q damage feels underwhelming early on.
- His sustain in the jungle seems subpar
- Shadown Assassin form blows more than Janna
- I don't understand why each skill isn't modified in both forms instead of 1 skill being excluded for either form.
- He seems like an assassin but doesn't really have much burst compared to others either.
- Shouldn't his Q be the skill that heals him instead of the e?
- Why does his Shadow Assassin form seem so damn pointless compared to his Darkin one?
- His ult feels like a demented Fizz E that traded damage for stickiness when it's honestly probably better as an execute if he is supposed to be an assassin in the first place.
I'm thankful he didn't release as a complete abomination like
but I feel like parts of him are unrewarding and other parts try to compensate for that while still feeling luke warm overall. His early game feels almost helpless as he doesn't clear all that fast or healthily. I mean
does it all better and doesn't really fall off hard while Kayne seems like he is playing catch up to her and still has to build much more damage to even compare. Let's not talk about how he's a fucking dog treat to
. Kayn's design is great and I love the idea behind a multi persona champion but I really think he needs a buff in numbers or some tweaking in choice areas. Don't get me wrong. I'd rather this than suffer
PTSD. Thoughts?
