I loved to play Kindred mid when she came out, but i would always get flamed for trying to take her mid and often kicked or dodged because of it.
Now that its been done live in a competitive match eveyrones going to copy the mid kindred hype train like they werent originally so against it
#thisgame [zombie-brand-mindblown]
Kindred was considered a great mid pick in Masters+ since she was released
meta sheep i cant have 
And 
on support without getting kicked because "i need flash" the reason i wish riot removed flash from the game
While that is unfortunate, you can trust challenger/master players to be able to play outside of the box styles/champs more successfully than Silver 4 players. So you can understand where the players in your respective ranked lobbies are coming from. You can't expect them to know how good you are at something that they rarely see, nor can you expect them to have good enough game knowledge to see that Kindred mid is not only viable but strong in many situations. I would suggest to you that you mute all whenever you are able to get into a game with Kindred mid, and unmute once you begin to get the ball rolling and feel safe from possible teammate flaming. I personally hate muting all because I like to make the big calls and communicate in my solo queue matches, but at lower elos it's more of a big dick contest between your teammates and once you win that contest, you win their respect and you are able to carry. I hope this helps and good luck on the rift!
