Can we please rework Kindred?

Her kit needs serious work and its very hard to get ahead. Her passive lets EVERYONE know where you are or where you'll probably be at and the pay off for completing something so "out of the way" is lackluster.

I honestly feel handicapped already picking her in champ select when I'm trying to learn her and the jungle.

I'd agree to a rework, but not because she's weak. Atm she's overpowered. She literally can't be fought 1v1 anymore, and almost has a free access to every stack pre 6 stacks now, because wall jump mechanics were changed universally (when wall jumping, the result puts you on the side closest to your destination, and now that means Kindred doesn't fail many wall jumps), and her kit allows her to kill the camps super fast.

Once she has 6 Stacks she just outranges 80% of champs and begins easily picking people off now, even champs that used to counter her. She's extremely strong atm compared to her old incarnation (the rework was supposed to be a nerf but turned into a heavy buff because the range gain + her q makes her more mobile than a Kalista)

Honestly maybe Kindred just isn't for you. She's very strong right now, but she requires a certain amount of knowledge and mechanics to play. If you find yourself losing games or just doing bad yourself K/D wise it's most likely you just need to switch champs or care less about the outcome and focus on just getting better with her. For her stacks she really doesn't have to get 10+ stacks like before the new runes. I've popped off and won games ending with 4 stacks. Getting her stacks is good, but it's far less required now then it was.
