Vayne vs Kayn Matchup Summary
The Vayne vs Kayn matchup is a decisive matchup in League of Legends ranked play. Based on 5 recent matches analyzed, Kayn wins with a 80.0% win rate compared to Vayne's 20.0%, giving Kayn a 60.0 percentage point advantage. Game phase dynamics play a critical role here: Kayn controls the early laning stage, but Vayne outscales as the game goes longer. The matchup shifts dramatically depending on game length — Kayn needs to press advantages before Vayne reaches their power spikes, while Vayne should focus on safe farming and hitting key item breakpoints. The most significant statistical gap is in sustain, where Kayn leads by 459 HP/min — a difference that heavily influences the outcome of trades and skirmishes. Kayn has a strong advantage in this matchup. Vayne players should play defensively, prioritize safe farming under tower, and look for opportunities created by jungle pressure or Kayn overextending. Avoid prolonged trades and wait for team fights where positioning and coordination matter more. Understanding these matchup dynamics is essential for champion select decisions and in-game strategy when facing this lane opponent.
