Changes to Wolf's mark system: Mark time out down from 5 minutes to 3 minutes Mark respawn time down from 70 seconds to 50 seconds Mark tier system changed: OLD Tier 1 (0 - 2 marks) Crab, Raptors Tier 2 (3 - 4 marks) Raptors, Krugs, Gromp, Wolf Tier 3 (5 - 6 marks) Blue, Red, Herald, Drake Tier 4 (7+ marks) Baron, Elder NEW Tier 1 (0 marks) Crab Tier 2 (1 - 3 marks) Crab, Raptors, Gromp Tier 3 (4 - 7 marks) Wolf, Krugs, Blue, Red Tier 4 (8+ marks) Herald/Baron, Drake/Elder

I think this is a huge nerf to Kindred because i usually start red > wolves > blue > mark. I want the mark to appear topside crabby or raptors. The mark can sometimes appear botside on crabby with a 1/3 chance. After the upcoming "buff" it cant appear on raptors so the chance of getting a unlucky bottom mark is 50:50, which means that I can consisten go for red > wolves > blue > mark top. If bot side is marked I must let the enemy take it and do gromp or go for a top/mid gank. Otherways its a waste of time to walk all the way down to botside just to see a dead crabby and my mark gone. After the chance it wont be so random as it is now but it will be more often the shitty mark location. I'd like an increase in base armor + health and maybe a decreased cooldown on W or + Runspeed cuz 325 is awfull ;/ Kindred but I'll take the reduced hunt spawn times. I usually don't have a problem securing early scuttles anyway.

Do u think it is enough to make her more playable again ? Pls comment ty :)

certainly not enough, for her to see more play. Her base stats are so garbage now she loses a early 1v1 with every other jg in the game. meanwhile graves... >_>

I think its hard to say.. She's 1 of those champions you can easily overbuff into an op state.

I really hope she doesn't see any more play.

they are talking about making her be able to have more purchase choices, more along the lines of crit.

considering that it take her longer to get marks now that jungle monsters take so much time to spawn, and that then new way it work should re mark jungle camps faster is hard to judge what will do it them

It's a nerf if they take both scuttle crabs before you get your first mark.

The only thing I don't like about the change to the marks, is if the enemy jungler gets the scuttle mark while your at 0 stacks, if he/she knows what to do, then the other scuttle will get killed before the mark is placed on it, and then your out of a jungle mark for 3 minutes, or if you can get a kill on an enemy laner, which will be a bit rough with how nerfed the q got, since q is like your main damage source in early game. I feel like if they brought more damage back on q and maybe add a little more to the base movement speed, they would be in a better spot. I don't think that would be much to ask since their sustain and base armor got screwed.
