How to Use Kayn Counter Data
Every figure on this page, covering both who Kayn struggles against and who Kayn preys on, comes from live ranked Jungle matchup data. At the moment Ivern, Kindred and Bel’Veth are the toughest draws for Kayn, since in those games his win rate falls furthest beneath his overall average. Ivern is the strongest counter of the group: Kayn has won only 44.7% of the 479 games logged against them. On the other side, Kayn holds the edge over Locke, Volibear and Trundle, so those are worth targeting during champion select.
Each card displays Kayn’s win rate for that matchup alongside the number of games it rests on. A pairing with tens of thousands of games carries much more weight than one built on a few hundred. The Easy, Even and Hard tags are derived from those win rates, with anything under 48% labeled Hard and anything over 52% labeled Easy. They help with quick reading and are not a separate statistic. The data draws on ranked games from Emerald and above in every region, reflects patch 16.13.1, and updates every 48 hours, so the figures shift as the meta does. Matchups only tell part of the story, so pair them with the current Kayn build for the best items and runes, or open the Kayn champion page for ability details and the full breakdown.
