I just dont want to see such balanced champion receive a buff that will eventually require another nerf that will put him in a worst state that he wasnt in before , i dont want kayn to get the taliyah treatement when she was released , hes completly fine right now (i bet he'll be even better in 7.15) but there is absolutely no need to buff him more than what he had this patch , i just want to learn the champion and get rewarded for learning his kit , please riot just leave him be for now.

Thank you :)

We will be looking at Kayn very carefully and practice caution. The 7.15 buffs will do a lot of work for Shadow Kayn so we definitely won't be reacting with dramatic changes before we see how those play out.

I honestly think it takes way to long for kayne to transform. You can spend 20 minutes sometimes before you get the form you want

Actually darkin need a nerf..to be honest..

But atm everyone would say no but in 2 weeks from now...the boards would be full with "nerf darkin"

but if i learn something from this game its that people need to be sheeps in order to jump in to something

I find Kayn very inneffective, his damage as blue is nothing special despite him just having a hard to land slow as utility. I havent tried him as a bruiser in red from but you could play a bruiser with a lot more cc than Kayn.

Honestly I thought all they had to do was make his ult an execute in shadow form and make his ult work like zeds were aoe spells arent hurting him in his ult

It's Riot friendo. He WILL get over buffed. He will then wreck when people realize he was already pretty good (less than a month old). He will then get nerfed into the ground OR He will stay ridiculous because "LCS Big Plays".

Played like 4 or 5 games Shadow Assassin today and he is really good now. Always got fed, always deleted sqishies. You can taste their fear of getting 1 shot no matter where they go. xD I admit, I lost 1 game even though I bursted 3 squishies under their freakin tower, my team just couldn't handle Shyvana because our ADC had duskblade and no last whisper. Of course I couldn't handle Shyvana as well, it's just not the job of an Assassin. They actually blamed me because I was the jungler. 1 v 3 not enough.

It's not just that his ult got buffed though, they fixed his passive, which was way more important, a lot of damage got lost there. In addition his ult is now allowed to give another duskblade proc. That is alot of extra damage. He got tripple buffed and it's very noticeable if you played Shadow Assassin before.

Still not sure if all damage now means all damage for the passive but most of the stuff should interact.

Dude, I'm just over here like OH CRAP PEOPLE MIGHT START PLAYING MY ORECIOUS AZIR AGAIN >_<. He does not need this stuff, this buff was good, don't buff him more. Kayn too, does not need so much buf%%%e. For a champ with two forms, that much versatility would be oppressive if both sides are extremely powerful and he can chose without any way to begin itemizing in anticipation.
