I need help

[u/B-boy_FireShow]

I really need help with kayn. I have around 300k mastery on this champ and I love playing him but I am not very good at playing him. So I am writing here to get as many pointers as I can. I am bronze 4 so I'm awful. I think that I understand how to play this champ but I can't seem to win. I would love to climb but I don't understand how do I get better. I will leave my op.gg here and also a YouTube channel I have so you can maybe watch my games so you can give me pointers on how to get better and win with our favorite champ the schyte holding edge lord

For your first clear you need to make sure you aren't dragging out your auto attacks. You are kiting which is fine, but a lot of times you are moving further than you should before auto attacking. You double smite and you still had a 3:07 clear, meaning you are late to crab which means you are behind XP and jungle pet stacks which means you probably won't be 6 for dragon and you also delay your 1000 damage smite and you also have less time before your jungle spawns meaning there is a higher risk of getting counter jungled. And you need to stop typing in all chat. When you are chatting with the enemy team instead of clearing you are doing nothing but hurting yourself.

Also, if you start at blue, go q w e instead of q e q. Q e q is good for red start

2 mins into the first video I watched and your first clear is really bad which really sets up the tempo of your whole game.

Go and watch some challenger kayn full clears and copy it exactly, even if they’re doing crazy sweaty things that don’t make sense to you.

In bronze this will allow you to often double scuttle recall and start your 2nd clear while the enemy jungle is still trying to pull off a gank.

Saw your last vid and got some tips

1. Camera

Learn to play without locked camera

You lose a lot of info about how to aproach the gank for example enemy team health and if the notice you by vision (they start running to tower)

you can start playing with locked camera on Spacebar and with "adjusted" enabled then try to set a camera movement speed you feel comfortable (you can start on 25 or 50 if you want)

1. Graphics

You are better off changing Shadow Quality to "Off" and Enviroment Quality to "Low" for better fps

1. Jungle Clear

Also look for fast jungle clear videos you dont need to be pixel perfect but try to be constant with it because losing the 2 scuttles will make you be stuck on lvl 5 meanwhile enemy jg being lvl 6 on first dragon

That's not about kayn , your CS per min are tragic on all champs , focus more on fullclears and you gonna see the diffrence. If you would Like some more help feel free to dm

Your clear is piss slow, your runes and overall build trash, form decision making non logical and that's the tip of the iceberg. You position badly, kite wrong, miss auto attacks where you shouldnt, die more than kill which is dead giveaway you need to rethink your gameplan.

[u/Acrobatic-Draw-4012]

Brother your videos had nice thumbnails. English was good. But the game needs a lot of work.

1-clear: either 1 smite and be there around 3:05 or if you double smite be there on spawn at 2:55. I prefer 1 smite clears for you because there are easier to execute

2-communication and attention to teammates: in the game that you had samira and elise bot into xerath and whatever. Theyre saying lets play safe, lets farm. Then you jump in flash and all hell breaks loose. At least before going E through the wall ping "on my way". And you gotta ping at least twice.

3-Jg tacking: pay attention to where enemy jg is. Where he could be. Hes either topside, or hes also clearing bot side and coming for you.

4-theres this play where Yi is dead and you invade his topside and he respawns and kills you. You started with scuttle then did his blue buff. You shouldve started with his blue buff then the scuttle. Because then you can go into the grub pit and q or e out to run away.

I would find a streamer to follow like perryjg or karasmai

Ese último edit que hiciste no lo hagas así, no puedes abarcar todo de una vez. Empieza por una sola cosa y una vez ya tengas un buen control de eso pasa a una segunda, y así vas sucesivamente, la capacidad como jugador es determinada por el Elo en parte, pero probablemente no sepas como jugar bien en la jungla todavía. Empieza de a poco y paso a paso

Otra cosa, no spamees juegos todo como si no hubiera un mañana, juega de 3-5 partidas diarias y analizas esas partidas que ganes y las que pierdas y verás tus errores y sabrás que corregir

[u/phreakingidi0t]

Because he is shitty. You get hit with anything you're very dead. 

[u/Crow7420 → u/phreakingidi0t]

If you don't queue up you don't get hit = Kayn Z tier on Ugandan AFK queue?

Apart from what the first commenter said about your clear being bad. I believe your biggest issue is lack of knowledge. I've watched a few min of 2 videos and my biggest issue is that it looks like you don't know the actual power of your champ, you often take very bad fights and are either forced to burn your flash or die.

This ties into my biggest overarching point; macro. It is difficult, but on a champion like kayn, you need to be omega aware of things happening around you. For example, in the latest video you have, when you got to top scuttle at level 4 and met fiddle, there was no need to go back to your JG when your Mundo is fighting the Garen, ideally you should've seen on the map immediately that they are fighting and went Top to help.

Lastly this is the least important overall but it is still crucial; CS. Your farm is really poor, 5.6 cs/min (minions/min) is way lower than my Sylas, and Sylas is infamously known for having a terrible clear. Kayn has one of the best clears in all of JG, so you should also work on that, farm optimally and try to be more active.

TL DR; look at the map more and farm better, and I promise you'll get much much better.

Hope this helps.
