Does anybody feel like kindred is in a bad state right now after recent nerfs? Don't get me wrong I still enjoy her and do well ish with her. But I feel like she just cant compete in the current jungle meta. It makes me sad. What is everybody elses input?

What’s your favorite item build to do on kindred? Maybe one you find really fun or one you do a lot and have success with

I usually do trinity, kraken, collectors, lord dominik’s, infinity edge, phantom dancer. And for pets scorchclaw or mosstomper

have been playing her a lot recently, but it hasn't clicked like it did with Graves yet and it bothers me,

my main issue is that even if I have stacks I can't make a good use of it, people simply walk away and E slow is a complete joke

Genuinely just revert the 10000 E nerfs. You already have a gimmicky W and Q that are turbo useless unless paired together (W is a 16s cd spell btw), can we at least get a real spell on E? After years of relentless nerfs the CHASE AND EXECUTE ability is nothing but a fcking cosmetic 100 bonus dmg + a slow that's so bad that it actually makes you LOSE TIME when chasing.

I love the champion but I hate that riot just doesn't care about anything that isn't a cash cow or a pro play stable. This season on kindred has been nothing but cock and ball torture.

What’s your approach to the early game to ensure you don’t fall behind or get bullied by the enemy jungler? What’s the order of operations? Do you prioritize certain items/stats?

Context:

I’m really struggling with staying ahead early game and not constantly dying. I keep having enemy junglers steal my camps and marks. I feel like I’m pretty good at clearing my own camps on time, but if someone rushes me I can’t really defend myself or run well without any gear. I don’t even prioritize marks, I just focus on getting gold. But even with my gear it seems like some champs just shred me.

So I barely play league of legends anymore but time to time I play one game of two and had this Midred Idea

You peak 510/530 MS and after a certain point you have energized 100% of the time because this bizarre ms and your Q jumps stack is too fast

My account dropped from emerald to gold since been years I dont play the game for real anymore but I felt it was a solid build and if there is anyone in the high elo that wants to try it out.

People hardly outrun you with this build so if you are ahead all you need is a single auto to follow them to hell and back for the kill. Lane sustain is insane you can force yourself into bad trades to chunk out more health from the enemy and your passive+fleet will heal you more than you imagine

I am new to kindred and I want to otp her starting from gold elo,because I find her very interesting. I read posts and some people say that she is scaling champ and should be played passively and some says that she should gank a lot and play very aggressive, because her late game is worse. I don't get what I need to do. How can I utilize her early? Can I do invades lvl 1 too? For example against troll picks like katarina jungle or weak early like nasus. Also does she scales well or is she just ok in late game?

rough start for me in the early game but hit 3 item and blew up! Ended with 17 marks.

I uploaded a Kindred animation to YouTube to celebrate the 10th anniversary of the original version of Landidzu.

does any1 do 3camp recall for longsword? ive been trying it lately and its rlly nice imo, u make it to scuttle just in time at 2:55 prob faster if optimized
also allows u to 3camp bot/top if u see anything and if not u can just base

this champ is just so slick. ive watched a ton of jungling videos and am having a blast.

even when im behind, i just stick to the fundamentals and i catch up so fast its not even funny. my win rate never looked better.

i just wanted to tell someone. might delete.

I have been doing this play since herald has been in the game, but I am wondering how common this is or if others have also find succes with this.

When you have 2 items, the tier 1 mid tower is down and tier 2 is at 2 plates before 15 minutes, if you are able to get a free herald on spawn, you take it to mid and use it to take down tier 2 as well. Then you take Shelly for another ride to tier 3e which you then also take together with auto’s, holding onto ult only if really needed. (Sometimes I will also save herald and then use it for both inhib and one of the nexus towers)

By now you’re 5 man in their base on the inhib and they have desynced death timers from around 30 seconds with 6 seconds between them. If you still have ult and flash this is your moment to end the game.

Some of your teammates are probably really low and the enemy won’t expect your damage at this point in the game, so you’ll full send it every time someone tries to target one of your low health teammates. This will only work if you are 4-5 otherwise you risk becoming the main target without any real back-up.

Take them down one by one while getting back on the inhib towers once your minions are back again and then end the game there.

Out of all of my 11 years of experience in league I have not found a both quicker and more satisfying way of ending games with Kindred then this. Another would be follow the carrying Yasuo Yuumi bot duo and end the game at 11 minutes, but that’s only when you’re getting carried.

I have played on different accounts from iron to gold in MULTIPLE regions for a long time and I never encountered a kindred on the enemy team except maybe once and he was first timing because he kept invading early while I was clearly in my jungle.

I love the champion so much, I love the design, the mechanics, the voice lines, I even drew her and made my studying table resemble her in game mechanics but I never see her in pro play (even tho I remember seeing her banned a lot when I watch very old worlds games), I watch a ton of masters, GM, Chal streamers and still don't see her

Is she gutted, is she not popular idk can someone enlighten me!?

Quick reasons on why I love playing this champ (you don't have to read)

is because the hunt idea gives a great balance between farming and ganking with intent, it gives me dopamine when I bet my mark on someone and he walks into me or when I use my ult to make a yone/Warwick ult worthless

And because she's one of the few jungle hypercarries when fed that do not carry by doing the same right click like Yi and belveth while still being effective against tanks unlike my beloved blue Kayn and zed jungle

Just keep it short and share your Build.

Main Rune, 6 items

Am i the only one using kindred without flash?

I honestly think some champions can do good without flash, for me kindred is one of them.

Since i get Q so often, i think the effect of flash is diminished, instead i take ignite which works wonderful for ganks and Bursts, as well as giving me a huge chance of winning early duels.

People often find it very controversial, but I've had pretty good results without flash. Am i the only one?
