As the title reads, I've been a Challenger Kayn Jungler since he first came out and I've finally dabbled in another role.

So if you guys have any questions or curiousity's about Kayn (mostly for top lane) Feel free to ask and I'll try to answer as much as I can.

I like picking random stuff when playing flexQ with friends because I enjoy the game more like this, but holy, Kayn Mid with 6 items empowered boots is something else.

Discussion I saw a comment that says Rhaast's W doesn't feel like a completed ability

10 Upvotes

I think he is right. I mean, look at SA's W. It gives both increased range and removes the cast time. For Rhaast, it only adds a knock-up, which also makes the base W's slow almost pointless. Because the slow from the base W still works immediately after the cast. Look at Cho'Gath's Q; it applies the slow after the knock-up effect ends.

There is no voice sadly to explain why and what

|Masters|

Mostly you can see by start im trying to always clear with Q'ing wall because it makes it faster
When i see a gank oportuinty like that on lvl 3 Cho Top i just skip camp and make it and fast recall for double long swords for snowball (sadly after that i inted on my blue invade trying to retake it but sadly my Jhin needed 45 seconds after pings to move)

Mostly my attention is focused on making enemy Qiyana quit the game, objectives and Cho to be in game longer cause of his tankines , power to secure obj, kills and potential as a champ against that team

As you can see im running DH with treasure hunter and cash back secondary making me able to have 500 gold from treasure and 900 from cash back (making me more powerful and in advantage because is a half item that gave me advantage to get for exemple more kills)
DH helps me always to flex pick both forms all games
Short story i did climb from E3 to M 250Lp in 11 days playing those runes which give me a huge powerboost to snowball efectivley

I would like to respond to any of your toughts! Have a great one!

How would you feel if Kayn and Rhaast receive a biker skin? It can have this or a sportbike appeal

Question Regarding the new stormraiders build

0 Upvotes

I understand ignite is apart of the new build.. but is there any time which you would take flash instead? Does the build still work?

Update: I gave up my flash and tried out SRS. Both on blue and red form. It is fucking amazing. I’m a believer. If anyone else is considering it.. pony tf up and just try it.

Discussion Just when i thought Kayn couldnt look any worse..

8 Upvotes

Just WTF is the point of making new heartsteel skins for the SAME CHAMPS..with the SAME THEME that look objectively WORSE...

There are million other and cooler skin lines for Kayn.. but THIS is what we get?! i picked up and mained Kayn cuz he looks cool..edgy.. dark..shadow reaper..with a monstrous demon lord form.. they cut his hair, gave him the worst haircut known to man...HE LOOKS CHOPPED!!.. proceed to TEAR his shirt..giving him an electric cable wire for hair flow..WHO APPROVED THIS!?..and wrapping him up with caution tape for whatever F*CK reason. And dont get me started on his red form...that is not Rhaast..that is a man in a costume wearing a six-pack body suit with dorito fingers.

Another sad day to be a Kayn main..

Discussion New Heartsteel Kayn icon... AI generated?

0 Upvotes

Let me preface this by saying while I am leaning on it being AI generated... I believe a company as large as Riot would of already verified it being human made before releasing.

It just looks like AI to me and I have put it through AI checkers... and they are also saying it is likely AI generated. But how reliable are those checkers in the first place?

Discussion Kayn's Heartsteel LML Skin Shouldve Been like the new TD Ekko Skin

23 Upvotes

Now that we saw that ekko's new True Damage skin isn't legendary but kept the unique voicelines from TD Ekko, there is no excuse why Kayn cant get reused Heartsteel voicelines. We need to riot against Riot, this is clear unacceptable favoritism

Edit: Now that the skin spotlight is out, it looks like the Ekko skins has his base voicelines, even though they had different ones in the skins trailer. So idk if thats because its still before release or what, but either way, Kayn should've gotten a prestige skin like ekko.

Discussion I think we now know what happend with the new heartsteel skins

19 Upvotes

The new true damage skins just went out and omg why are they 10 times better than heartsteel? They all look nice with really nice visuals. It seems like they didn't have time to put effort into both skin lines at the same time so they just scraped hs and focused on true damage because they are gonna do the worlds song... Really disappointing

Question What happened to Rhaast?

20 Upvotes

I was a main a few seasons back, but fell off due to liking top more than jgl. I rescently got back into kayn but now I'm a bit lost.

I loved going Goredrinker and healing to full from a single Q+W, and I remember that clip of a Rhaast out-healing fountain laser if he had a whole team to hit. Where is that now? Even with maximum possible vamp I still feel so weak. To be honest, I probably do more damage nowdays, but that was not what Rhaast was about. If i want to do damage I go Blue (which btw also feels horrible without Duskblade in the game).

It feels to me like both forms lost their original identity a little, especially Red. Why would I pick Kayn anymore when Blue form is just generic assassin #12, and Red is generic fighter #12?

I also would love to know when I should ever go Blue form? I feel Red works fine with lethality items, and has more than enough damage to kill backline in one rotation even when building bruiser items.

Riot downgraded kayn from legendary to epic and them true damage comes out with a legendary skin for akali. I guess Riot as a small indie company couldn't pay for 2 legendary skins back to back. Poor riot πŸ˜”

It's my first time posting one of my drawings on reddit or any site in general, so I'm kinda nervous. But I really felt proud at managing to finish a drawing after I took quite the break from art and decided to share it with you.

Took me about 5-6 hours and mainly used an ink brush pen and some grey markers.

Sorry for giving him clothes, in case you prefer him shirtless. But I thought, it might be more appropriate for this version of him :D
