Kindred rework/update?

This is more of a question for Riot, as to whether or not Kindred could be receiving a rework or update in the near future, or at least relatively soon, or at least if there are discussions and thoughts on Kindred's current position in the game. I would also like to know how other players feel about the current Kindred... do you think they're well designed, balanced, op/up, etc? What could be done for the champ?

Personally, I think Kindred needs some updates or a rework or something of the sort. Kindred is an extremely fun champ, for me. I love playing Kindred in the jungle and I've tried laning with them before too. Some games I've done pretty damn good, others not so much. Really, though, it depends on the enemy team. A team who knows the basics of Kindred and their kit can honestly quite easily shut them down, generally just by having the closest lane and maybe the jungler get to a marked camp and take it. This makes it extremely difficult to do much, as Kindred's passive is one of the strongest things about them. It's also usually quite difficult to try and get your team to help you, as usually the mark ends up in the enemy jungle, so unless all of your lanes are doing well there is a very, very slight chance of you being able to actually make it to the camp and take the mark. Even scuttler can be difficult if your lanes are just going even, not to mention the enemy jungler. Another problem is when Kindred's passive lands on something like the Rift Herald or Baron... especially earlier on in the game. It takes a long time to reset and can potentially severely slow your progress. Of course, you can still get marks from ganking lanes, but it still leaves you, as Kindred, extremely vulnerable. Aside from just their passive and marks, I think their abilities may need some reworks as well, namely their ult. The idea of the ult in itself isn't so bad, but when it actually comes into play it's often quite useless, honestly. It's good for saving players as long as they know what they're doing, but the problem with it is that it makes EVERYTHING, both friend and foe, immortal at 10% HP, AND heals them after. Often times when you use this, the enemy will just charge in rather than back off, like an ult should help you do. So, I personally think Kindred does need a bit of an update/rework to become a more viable champ against teams who actually have some idea what they're doing.

I've heard other people say Kindred is lacking, or a weak pick, so I think others can agree with at least some of this, or maybe other points of Kindred.

Thoughts, opinions?
