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

This is contrasting evidence that he is worse when playing with Leona.

Leona has a much lower diffuclty than Kayn. That means you don't need to be very careful when arranging Leona teammates to go into battle on the same side as, as they will need a much lower level of skill to work well with you.
Playing on the same side, you will likely see an overall large increase in your team’s capacity to dish out massive AD. Together, these champs can tear through the other team with a lot of physcial damage.
In contrast, by aligning Kayn and Leona together, you probably will not be granting your team a lot of magical damage output. We recommend you include other champions on your team that fills this disparity in their potential.
Regardless of your Leona ally's ability, you should focus on increasing your income, outlasting your enemies, and clearing objectives. If you do this, you should do well anyway.
