Rough Teamfight Guide
- •Poke with W, engage with Q, stall with R, then escape or find a kill opportunity with Q or E.
Overview
- •P collects essence based on the type of champion you damage (melee/ranged) to transform. Melee → Darkin essence. Ranged → Shadow Assassin essence. Darkin: lifesteal on champion damage. Shadow Assassin: brief damage increase after starting combat.
- •Q hits once during the dash and once with the spin slash on arrival — 2 hits total. Same for all forms: Kayn, Darkin, Shadow Assassin.
- •W deals damage to targets in front. Darkin form adds Airborne. Shadow Assassin form increases range and allows casting while moving.

TMI
- •Kayn is very weak before evolving
- •Evolution Gauge Attacking enemy champions fills your gauge: Ranged enemies → Shadow Assassin gauge. Melee enemies → Darkin gauge.
- •Kayn (Base Form) Q has two phases: dash phase / slash phase. If hit by Airborne, Charm, Fear, Suppress, or Sleep during the dash phase, Q will not perform the spin slash. (Please report if there are any other effects that stop the spin slash.)
- •R requires vision of the target to use.
- •Shadow Assassin (SA) P activates a buff for 3 seconds at the start of combat, increasing damage by up to 40%. Q same. W can be cast while moving during Cast-time, and After-cast is removed. E has reduced cooldown, enhanced MS ↑, and Slow Immune. R has increased engagement and escape range. P buff reapplies upon exiting R.
- •Darkin P (Passive) grants Lifesteal, allowing all skills to benefit from Lifesteal. Q adds max health damage. W adds Airborne. E same. R deals bonus max health damage and heals proportional to damage dealt.
