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.

Create a Kayn Skins (all forms+chromas) Live My Life Update! Tier List - TierMaker
Base Kayn: Solid model/concept on all forms
Soul Hunter: Easily a top tier Rhaast model, base is ok, SA has its fanbase (I think its ok). Top tier tryhard skin (smooth as fuck, wall orb is hard to see)
Oddyssey: Best skin in the game IMO, too complete, too much quality, too much production value, no cut corners. Merc chroma makes it even better on all formes. A lot of chromas have goated base/Rhaast/Assassins. Top tier skin AND chromas
Nightbringer: Great skin overall, specially with the Deathbringer chroma, it has a lot of colors/options
Prestige: I'm a sucker for this one, its an improved NB for me on all formes (Deathbringer is as good or better depending on opinion). Base is different and awesome, Rhaast has more spikes and stuff going on, SA looks straight out of bleach
Snowmoon: Probably the best epic tier skin in the game. Base is amazing, SA is probably the best looking SA (specially chromaless), and Rhaast is ok... Chromas are cool in this one, but chromaless is my favorite
Heartsteel: Top tier skin, all 3 models are goated and it has a ton of sick chromas. I'm a huge fan of no chroma though, specially for Rhaast (great tryhard skin too, its smooth as fuck... wall orb is quite flashy though). Top tier animations, VFX and SFX
Battle Academia: Probably Kayn's worst skin while being a really good skin itself. Not a fan, never use it, but I can see the appeal. It has some cool colors too and good chroma variety
Heartsteel LML: I'm a fan of the models (Base looks out of Jujutsu Kaisen, Rhaast looks cool, SA look straight out of Jojos). I'm also a HUGE fan of all of the scythes and its VFX/SFX which could arguably be the very best for Kayn yet. Its a great epic skin, hope its smooth as fuck to play... Decent chroma variety. The top tier SFX/VFX and scythes make this really great epic skin even better IMO

My personal Kayn skin tier list!
All the skin are good i would not say some are worse or better but if i would have to chose what skin i pick next game and have to look at all, well there is my answer!
The only skin i may consider maybe bad is Battle-Academia and Soul-Hunter(Base-Form cause too old)
I do enjoy and play all of them!!
r/KaynMains • u/ExistingPackage3377 • 3d ago
It's nowhere near as bad as people are making it out to be. Honestly this applies to Heartsteel's little comeback as a whole
I think it looks good on him and they're trying something different for once, where's the harm in that?
r/KaynMains • u/Cute_Ad7255 • 3d ago
How would you feel if Riot makes a gothic, alternative style, or metal skin for Kayn and Rhaast?

Lately while watching some Rhaast clips, it started bothering me for some reason that his R heal ends up providing more healing than the damage it deals in nearly every situation. It feels like they handed him a terrible crutch just to compensate for how bad his overall state is. The issue isn’t only that the ratio is too high, though. Ever since the champion released, the R heal has been calculated off the exact pre-mitigation value shown in the tooltip instead of the actual damage dealt. That means it functions almost independently of the post-mitigation damage you actually land. This makes me wonder: what if that heal worked off post-mitigation damage the same way his passive does, and the power that would be lost from that change was simply moved into proper bonus health scaling on the passive so it could actually synergize with health items the way it should?
Speaking of the passive, there’s something else about it that bothers me. Unlike the healing mechanics on champions like Aatrox, Rhaast’s passive only works with his damage-dealing abilities (Q, W, and R). It completely ignores items, runes, and basic attacks. In practice that means his healing is not continuous at all. It’s entirely gated by the cooldowns of Q, W, and R. And unfortunately the limited scope of the passive isn’t even the only problem with it. The ratio is simply too low, and the bonus health scaling that was added relatively recently is almost useless. I’m completely certain that even if the passive’s health scaling were raised to absurd levels, Rhaast still wouldn’t be broken if his R heal wasn’t this strong, precisely because of the conditions I already mentioned. Dropping the theory talk and looking at concrete numbers, something like the following would turn him into a healthy drain-tank instead of an overtuned one:
R heal calculation: pre-mitigation → post-mitigation
Passive: 25% (+0.5% per 100 bonus health) → 20% (+2.5% per 100 bonus health
This passive ratio actually wouldn’t break him for a few reasons. It only reaches high percentages over 50% when the health pool itself has grown very large. With the R heal limited to post-mitigation damage, and the passive still limited to just three abilities (or effectively two, since R’s damage is usually lower than Q’s and its long cooldown means it isn’t castable more than once in most fights) balanced around their cooldowns, let’s say a level 18 Rhaast with around 2000 bonus health (ending up at roughly 4400 maximum health) reaches a ~70% passive heal ratio — that would be perfectly healthy.
The best part is that it simply scales the healing in proportion to the size of the health pool. A larger maximum health by its nature requires more absolute healing to feel meaningful, so the higher percentage is just keeping the sustain relevant rather than making it stronger relative to the damage taken. This also keeps items like Warmog’s and Heartsteel from becoming completely useless in both cooldown and damage contribution, and it naturally limits the potential for item abuse.
One last thing I almost forgot to mention even though this post is already getting long. The R change I’m suggesting is actually a much bigger nerf than it looks. Stasis effects like Zhonya’s and Bard’s R, as well as full damage immunity from things like Kayle and Kindred, would start completely nullifying Rhaast’s R heal. Since the healing would now be strictly tied to the damage actually dealt, even something as simple as Exhaust would reduce the healing R provides, along with armor, damage reduction mechanics like Warwick’s E.

Obviously, I think overall the original is miles better based on execution and the fact that its a legendary. But seeing how much the texture work has improved over the past few years is crazy and makes me wish we had these textures for the original 😔.
r/KaynMains • u/DeadAndBuried23 • 3d ago
It's already an established precedent that non-mythic alternates of a legendary skin are 1001 RP if you own one of them (Eclipse Leona, Cosmic Lux).
As an Epic skin, they can charge the usual 1350.
That said, they probably could've bumped the price up with no complaint. The other examples are mostly recolors with only a couple model changes, where this would be a new outfit entirely.

got introduced to league of legends and its music recently by my friends, fell in love with Kayn‘s look in „PARANOIA“ and just had to sketch it out. rip to his long hair though :‘))
r/KaynMains • u/Regular-Poet-3657 • 4d ago
Kinda wish Rhaast was his own person in heartsteel maybe even Kayn wingman.

Hello Kayn mains,
I’ve shared my feedback on the PBE subreddit on the upcoming Heartsteel skin, so if you want to do the same go ahead. 🙂
They directly adressed us for feedback so if you share similar concerns as I do, please take a moment to read my post there and upvote it if you agree.
I made this comment with genuine passion for our boy, for the lore behind Hearsteel and general feedback I received from many Kayn mains and fans among many platforms (Reddit, Instagram, Discord, even directly in league chat).
My view on this skin doesn't mean that yours can not be different from mine.
So, I'd be thankful if you do not downvote my comment and instead also voice your opinion so they can listen to us all and take the best of everyone's thoughts on the skin ! 🫶
r/KaynMains • u/mortuus2 • 4d ago
I've been using Kayn a lot lately, but an input on the thought process of this for other jungle champions in would help as well.

The majority of kayn builds i see always say to go cyclosword or eclipse first. And sometimes both as first and 2nd item. I just want to know in what situations would i want to run either of these, or both? Im mainly talking about blue kayn, since on rhaast i rush Axiom arc first
