To all the People QQ'ing about kindreds Ultimate

Phife··3 votes·967 views

It will work much like a trynd ult. You have to use it the .5 millisecond before you dying or else the ult was technically used wrong, it has the ability to be used on multiple people within the range but will only be useful to people who are about to die. If someone is that close to death, they will most likely be out of the remaining fight for the next 2min (aprox).

So, is it op? looks a whole lot like bards release, everyone screaming OP about his ult yet today people still don't use it how it should be used. You really need to maximize on when you use the ult otherwise ulting your team of full hp bruisers and casters will certainly do nothing. Much like zhonyas is used today, after the duration ends the fact still remains the same. There is an enemy right in front of you with 10% hp. He's either going to die or hes going to have to go B. He will not be able to participate in a fight without dying as is.

OH yeah, and the ult applies the undying effect and the heal on EVERYONE inside it (enemies too!)

My opinion, game breaking? not really. more of a crutch that can be used to save gold from spilling into the enemies hands.

TL:DR, Remember Bard ult. Wait till release.

Then Kindred uses her ult on the entire team and face tank the enemy while taking their Nexus with zero forms of retaliation.

You know how Tryndamere uses his Ult to take any building in the game with easy? This is what Kindred does, but better. At worst, this shit is never going to be properly balanced.

That's one of the intended use.

Do note that enemy team gets the immortality and heal as well. Doesn't stop them from CCing you.

Yes, the enemy will stun all 5 members of the team at the samw time.

Looks like there's no way for them to use abilities to CC you for the duration of the invulnerability ult, yep.

Just realized Bard, if played correctly, counters Kindred's ultimate with his own since it basically wastes it.

Yeah, all of them can just either CC and chunk you down fast to finish you once it ends or just CC you all and lol while you wait for the CC to end.

Not to mention everyone clumping together is a field day for any of those champs. Nothing like being able to CC the whole enemy team because they clumped.

If a team is 5 man grouping at your nexus, i think kindreds ult is the least of your worries bro.

Pretty sure the ult that completely deletes any chance of a possible comeback is a big worry.

But ok, replace "5" with "2" and "Nexus" with "Any building ever"

You dont seem to understand, if kindred uses her ult that means you can go even more HAM inside her ult. You wont die either. Its a death sentence if you use it mistakenly wrong.

Would be interesting if Lamb's Respite prevented structures from dying too (we already know it stops monsters from dying)

Doesn't it effect enemies, also?

Forgot to mention it, but as you guys can see there are a shit ton of downsides to this ult being used wrong.

There's a whole lot of ways bard ult can be inconvenient for his teammates/convenient for his enemies. There is literally no way that Kindred's ult can have a negative impact for his own team/positive impact for the other team compared to if his ultimate was not used. The comparison is poor.

{quoted} There is an enemy right in front of you with 10% hp. He's either going to die or hes going to have to go B.

Or he and his teammates with 10% hp are going to kill you and your teammates during their period of invulnerability or the short window afterwards when your team's damage is on cd.

It's just like a tryndamere ult. This comparison is good. But it's a tryndamere ult for everyone. A lot of the counterplay to tryndamere/kayle/zilean ults in teamfights is to focus someone else until the ult is over. Wat do when 5v5 but no one else...

I'm not saying there's no counterplay; I'm saying in my opinion a lot of the concern is justified.

EDIT Oh. All units.

I take back pretty much everything I said and I think you hit it right on the money.

I think for pushing down towers it is extremely broken.
