I don't think Assassin Kayn's Damage is Okay to Leave

Kayne does wayy to much damage for how consistent his abilities are to land. Even when he lost lane hard, he can easily return due to extremely high base stats that allows him to burst squishies without much effort. As you can see in the webm, Kayne could have bursted Ahri while only using q and w and finish with R. However, Kayn underestimated his own damage and forgot to cast his ultimate which allowed me to go to my 2nd rotation of abilities.

This is oftenly seen in Akali as well. She can fall behind in lane, can lose lane hard, but because of her very high base stats, her horrible lane just disappears and she starts to kill everyone.

Being a melee champ should be the risk they take for their really powerful strength to punish mistakes... but you don't see this at all when a melee champ can lose lane and continue to be a relevant threat. Thanks!

Yesterday i just had to waste flash/heal and barely managed to survive VS a 0/8 one with a 4/1 ADC...

I was like: Ok! he messed up coming on me ... now i'm gonna wait at the wall and kill him

He went out of the wall, missed his Q to come near me landed W and 1 Auto and bb to 2/3 of my HP bar

Honestly his damage is fine, he has his two core items and is in his much more risky assasin form. Assasin form sacrifices all utility for more damage, he also has dusk blade which has the special ability that is basically a free kha zix passive, Kayn also landed his entire W/Q/Auto combo, Despite that ahri was able to flash out and get the kill. This form is hella risky to use as it sacrifices all utility for the sake of damage, and if he was rahst one could debate he would of killed her because he would of had a knock up.

TLDR-He went shadow assasin while having 2 complete lethality items, of course he's going to do that much damage, that's like going.

OMG FULL BUILD ZED KILLED ME WHILE IM PLAYING ADC...well yeah..he's full lethality zed with a full build..he better one shot you or else something is seriously wrong here.
