How to play it

Respect his 6
Kayn is fine to fight early, but the moment he hits 6 his Umbral Trespass can one-shot you out of nowhere: stop trading at low HP.
Bait into boxes
He is easily baited into your boxes: seed them in chokes and fog, then punish him with the fear the second he walks in.
Max W first
Max Jack In The Box first in this matchup: more boxes means more vision and more setups to keep baiting him and defending your camps.
Never get caught low near a level-6 Kayn: his Umbral Trespass will one-shot you before you can react.
