How to Play with Kayn as Olaf in LoL
The Olaf Kayn synergy stats shown here demonstrate the areas of his gameplay that do better (or worse) when paired with Kayn, compared to his overall stats. Significant differences are areas of focus that highlight how his gameplay changes when paired with this other champion.
Overall, Olaf sees a very large drop in his KDA (ratio of kills and assists to deaths) when paired with Kayn. His KDA went down from NaN to NaN. This decrease shows that Kayn helps Olaf perform not as well in competitive League of Legends games. Yet, the small difference shows that this performance change is only marginal.
When Olaf plays on the same team as Kayn, he sees a little increase in his complete damage dealt. This change could signal that Kayn helps provide protection for him to deal more damage or that his presence also helps increase the match's duration. Similarly, when Olaf is played alongside Kayn on the same side, he usually scores many fewer killing sprees than when he plays without Kayn. This is contrasting evidence that he is worse when playing alongside Kayn.
Moreover, when Olaf plays with Kayn on the same side, he typically receives a little less damage than when he fights alone. Taking not as much damage could mean that Kayn does a decent job of covering Olaf in team fights.

This clearly indicates that there is only a small synergy between Olaf and Kayn that results in them performing better together than alone.
Kayn has a much greater difficulty compared to Olaf. That means you need to be very careful when finding Kayn comrades to go into battle on the same side as, as they will require a much greater level of skill to cooperate well with you.
When playing cooperatively, Olaf players should observe an overall large increase in your team’s ability to dish out massive AD. Together, these two should be able to take down targets with auto-attacks and other AD damage abilities.
Conversely, by pairing Olaf and Kayn together, you will not be granting your side a lot of AP. Make sure to include other champions on your team that neutralizes this disparity in their potential.
Regardless of the ability of your Kayn ally, you should focus on maximizing your income, warding to avoid ambushes, and clearing objectives. If you follow these simple suggestions, you will do well anyway.
