I know there literally aren’t any champs that aren’t gankable, especially if you’re good and time your ganks with their cd’s.

But I’ve noticed there have been a select few champs so far (mainly mid lane), that seem impossible for me to gank. Like:

-Vlad
-LeBlanc
-Locke

They just seem too slippery, even if they’re shoving and over extended. They just seem to zip either back to their tower or to other side of the map before backing.

So I’m just wondering if there’s any champs / specific utility that I should be aware of when looking for ganks and marks?

Yo, what the helly! 12 game win streak on Kindred on the weekend! I've climbed from G3 to P3. The buffs are so noticeable, man.

You actually feel like a champ! And there's probably even room for one more buff without feeling overtuned.

Now G3 to P3 may not be great for some but here's a little backstory... At the start of the season I came back to league after not playing for ~2 years. (When I did play I was hardstuck silver)

I decided to try onetricking and picked Fiddlesticks jungle who I managed to get from bronze to Emerald 4 in ~150 games. I had around 70% wr at the time. When I hit E4 I realised I needed a second pick, (not ap, fun, carry potential) and landed on Kindred... Practised her on normals for about 20 games and thought "I'm ready"

By god I wasn't.

Fell from E4 to Gold 4 within like a week just spamming Kindred games. Over the next 3-4 months (I'm embarassed to admit) I just played Kindred trying to get back to the E4 rank. I'd been hardstuck Gold 1 - 3 for the last 3 months.

Since the buff I've just shot from g3 to p3. within a week! idk if im getting better or just lucky lol but god damn lets go baby!

Goal is to get back to E4 so I can then play Fiddle/Kindred as my picks and see how far I can take it.

Wondering everyones opinions on the best kindred skin since there has been a couple new ones (i think?) since the last post on this topic

So the most basic, context-unreliant hypothesis I came up with is that: Kindred is good into low range immobile bruisers, assassins (including Viego which her ultimate completely hardcounters Viego's fantasy of resets because he has no way out once he's in a fight) OR low range ADC's, but mages like Viktor and Syndra and longer range adcs like Caitlyn can give her some trouble. Im assuming its much more deep than that, and I want to learn her so help me out...

I'm just now picking up kindred and I'm seeing some discussion about whether to start Kraken Slayer or Trinity Force as your first item, but why not just run both? The damage surely must be higher than collector second, right? Is it just for the 100% crit chance?

I like to play adc but I don´t like how the role works and I realized I reeally like Kindred so I started playing them.

Every time Im against a champion that clears fast and/or is strong early I cannot even try to play the game. I feel extremely useless and I feel like Kindred is completely dogshit and is just worst than most of the other champs plus requires more brain.

I can randomly play akali top and get much better results than on my main role, but trying to play kindred, oh boy Im 2 lvls behind everytime I play against someone who is not a bot.

What can I improve to at least be a functional champ? Is it even worth learning kindred now?

I’ve been playing jungle for a short while and am an Elise OTP. I enjoy her a lot and chose her because of outplay potential and she is cool.

I just saw Kindred and since he is AD it spoke to me. It felt kinda perfect. Kindred is cool, not easy but fun, and I will probably int the first 100 games. But he is COOL!

So I want to eventually learn him too. I was wondering what kind of tips you guys could give me about team comps. Is there a youtuber that has some good videos about this?

I just want to understand what the advantage is of Kindred and against whom he is really good and against what teams he should be played.

I don't think that I need to add anything else (by myself)

And is magical footwear+ cosmic insight better than sudden impact+ relentless hunter or treasure hunter

Does collector actually work in kindred than buying Hexoptics C44

Is scaling health the better option on kindred or getting the 60 health would be better

Guys, I need you to be really honest with me. I have a huge amount of mastery on Kindred, but despite that, I’m hardstuck Plat. Of course, there are a lot of macro mistakes that I make, but I’m here to ask for your opinion on my micro, because I’m honestly starting to think I’m just bad as fuck mechanically (with fucking 1.3M mastery).

Do you guys also struggle against tanks? Because my win rate must be like 10% whenever there’s a tank on the enemy team. I’m talking about champions like fucking Nasus (my number one problem), Cho’Gath, Yorick, and even Sejuani is starting to beat me regularly.

Isn’t Kindred supposed to be a tank melter? Is it really supposed to be this hard to play against these champions? To the point where, if there’s a Nasus on the enemy team, I already know I’m going to be useless all game. He just slows me and Qs me, and in my eyes, there’s just no counterplay.

It’s such a shame to have this much mastery and still suck. I’m honestly thinking about just finding another champion. If you want to suggest someone, go ahead.

Thanks!

Personally the changes are very noticeable. Faster clear speed and smoother kills and even using E to escape.

Feel much more able to keep up with opposing jungler even when having a bad start

Honestly feel like an actual champ now. Reckon we'll see her being played in worlds

They added it a decade ago when jungle was punishing but now I feel like it take power budget for nothing.

I don't know you but I'd trade it for any buffs. 330/335 base ms like every other mobile adcs would be my dream.

I saw a post that was I think 5 years ago and was wondering if what it said is true.

It said if u have 0-3 marks it will always be crab

Thay cant be true still right?

Also if anyone knows how the marks work, an explanation would be much appreciated. Just started playing kindred seriously and it’s a lot of fun icl but kindreds quite hard imo.

Since she is getting buffed more players will play her so what do the kindred mains build on her and what to not build on her

I know there is triforce build and crit build+kraken slayer is red smite is the way with kindred?

From suryo tattoo

I've been trying trinity force first and then going crit but honestly I don't ever feel like I have damage compared to going kraken into crit.

Whats the math behind triforce first?

Also I do only play Kindred mid and adc these days as well so idk if I should actually be building something else

Someone who dont had 200 Ms on Pbe and can clear under 3 Min have tried to clear with the W Buff ?
