Rhaast is never greater than Shadow Assassin, Riot really made Kayn choose a path like in it's trailer, he can either make a life of a squishy a living hell or a life of a tank a living hell,

Shadow Assassin is literally hinted on his name. he's an Assassin not a tank, means he sacrifices survivability for mobility and damage, his passive is literally his burst tool, and the ability to move during Blade's Reach literally makes your W-Q combo really potent, but it's never suggested to fight a tank if you are a Shadow Assassin unless you are really, really fed

Rhaast is a bit different, he's a bruiser, and bruisers sacrifice mobility and damage for survivability, which is the opposite of Shadow Assassin, Rhaast will have a hard time killing squishies because most of his abilities deal percent max health, which is terrible for squishies because they never build survivability items,

It really depends on what game you are in,

Is the enemy team filled with squishies that can be obliterated? go for Shadow Assassin, it's much easier because you have a burst combo unlike Rhaast

Is the enemy team filled with tanks that is hard to take down? go for Rhaast, he has tons of sustain and his abilities ignore armor as he deals percent max health on Q and ult,
