Kindred and Zilean ult bug

I was playing a game as Zilean support Zilean , we managed to get into a teamfight, I ulted myself and I managed to proc it right before Kindred's ultKindred was activated. And so when I revived I was at 1 health and the Kindred ult healed me for about 300 instead of normally reviving with around 850. Might want to look into other life-saving ults such as Zac's or Aatrox's passives to make sure that doesn't happen.

Thanks for looking into it if you do.

Yeah, Zil's ult is classified as a heal, and Kin shuts those down.

I've had this happen to me as well, and I spoke to Riot Support about it:

"Zilean's Ult is not really considered a heal. It's more like doing a system restore in the Windows OS. I can see why you would ask though. His ult is very similar to heals but the mechanic is quite different." -Spine Splitter, Player Support Specialist

On pointing out that this amount "restored" is still prevented by Kindred ult even though it's not technically a heal, I got this response:

"You got a point, Summoner. Even though Zilean's ultimate is not considered as a heal, Kindred's ult still prevent's the champion being revived, gain HP. Zilean is getting an update in the PBE right now so I believe you could post your opinions and suggestions on the PBE thread." -jeProx, Player Support Specialist

But since that PBE change has already gone to the live servers, I don't know if posting on the PBE thread will change anything, so I'm trying my luck here. I've also got a video of that interaction happening: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vmDKw7xCQEc
