Reason: Ult is an attempt to change the play-style of the game, but honestly i think it makes it worse, think about it, an ult that whoever is in it does not die and is left with 10% hp, after the spell ends you get a good amount of hp, what shit ult, this is kindreds identity? Kindreds ult is shit and boring, lame

Kindred's ult can be used to take objectives like towers, inhibitors. and of course nexus.

That's pretty useful. If you see a turret is almost down, bum rush it and ult in with kindred lol. Taking a turret could potentially be worth a death, ESPECIALLY A INHIBITOR which can leash to a baron push.

I just hate how enemies get healed as well from the ult. I wished it were only allies healed.

Yeah I don't like the ult myself really, but it's useful tho.

Sadly, you're still fucked if you get ganked and try ulting with Kindred. I mean it can really only be useful in certain situations.

I'd say that its not the ult more so than the whole kit that makes kindred boring.

It seems the kit was built around kiting which to me isn't fun for league but I guess it's effective against certain champs.

I'll say this tho. It does feel cool to kill someone or two with Q.. I think it's the fact he flips while doing it.

I find Kindred's ultimate to be fine as far as playstyle and mechanics go. The only problem is that she pretty much never survives a team fight in which she did anything remotely useful without using the ult, because she is just so short-ranged overall that she has to facecheck a frontline to do any damage. Which is obviously kind of counterproductive for a high-kite marksman.

The ult itself can be used in a brilliant variety of ways if the player knows their enemy comp well and has really good positioning. For instance, cast it on a high-health ally that isn't at risk behind you and then jump back until you fall into it - potentially deny most of the enemy team the invul and heal. Cast it in a bush or around a bend to bait people into a team gank when they chase you. Drop it under dragon to deny that enemy Fizz or Vi a steal, or even during your own steal to make them burn their smite with precise timing.

I love what her ult brings to the table, just have to think outside the box. The problem is her sh*t range forcing her to sponge and burn her ult, not her ult itself.
