Overall, Akali sees a very large drop in her KDA (ratio of kills and assists to deaths) when paired with Kayn. His KDA worsened from NaN to NaN.

When Akali is an ally to Kayn, she gets a small increase in her full damage output. This could signal that Kayn helps provide cover for her to dish out more damage or that his presence on the team also helps extend the game's duration.

This is contrasting evidence that she is worse when playing with Kayn.
Moreover, when Akali plays with Kayn on the same team, she on average takes a little more damage than when she fights alone. Receiving more damage may indicate that Kayn does a poor job of covering Akali in team fights.
