Kindred Changes on PBE (04/21)

Please no....

Kindred Dance of Arrows (Q) Casting W or using Q while in W zone now reduces cooldown to 4/3.5/3/2.5/2 seconds from 2 seconds. ** Wolf's Frenzy (W):** Duration increased to 8.5 seconds from 8 seconds Wolf Attacks now do 50% increased damage to monsters

I understand what you're trying to do, but that Scaling cooldown on Q with W will be so annoying with it's lack of consistency.

I do think Kindred needs to be toned down a bit, but fluidity changes like these can make a Champion feel really awkward to play. Happened with Gangplank, getting used to it was not fun.

This would be a gigantic nerf if it goes through. Her clear goes to utter shit and so does her early pressure. She losses enough here that I don't see her staying in the jungle as an often picked champ. She won't provide enough early to offset her late game.

edit: she needs nerfs though, but this might be a tad much. Lowers her damage output by a decent amount (without actually going over numbers I would say it lowers by about 25% lvl 2 which sets her up to get counter jungled hard at blue/red.

Quick question, just to make sure I'm not misreading the term: That W change won't affect attacks on lane minions correct?

Correct. Monsters refers to Jungle Mobs.

Damn. Well at least the Q CDR is tied to the Q level, so it doesn't screw up my mid Kindred that much
