How to play it

Respect his W
Red Kayn can interrupt your leap with his W: don't jump in while it's available, keep it in mind before you commit.
Root him down
Against Blue Kayn it's all about your root (E): locked down he can't dash around, and he can't ult while rooted.
Which form he picks
Blue Kayn is Rengar-favored, while Red Kayn counters you: track which form he commits to and play the fight accordingly.
Never leap in on Red Kayn while his W is up: he'll interrupt your leap and flip the fight.
