An assassin/fighter to go bot?

If we're talking kill lanes then there are much better champions than both of those. The most obvious being Leona, while she's considered a true support her build and playstyle resembles a kill lane far more than any support in the game (level 2 with both Q and E? Time to fight!). Also Jarvan gets a lot of free stats while also having a lot of CC to lock someone down, especially post 6 (and his flag aura gives attack speed to allies).

Of Nocturne vs KhaZix though, Nocturne is far more reliable at being a kill lane simply because Noc can build as tanky as he likes if he gets behind and still get quite a lot of free damage stats from his Q and W. And of course his Fear is a hard CC which will always be relevant.

KhaZix has no CC and needs to build damage if he wants to do anything (I faced a tanky KhaZix once, even though he picked up a lot of kills in the early game and was quite fed, we could just ignore him later because he dealt no damage).

That said, you should practice jungling, it's fun. o3o
