I'm happy she was finally looked at recently but I don't think the changes were that good. Can you guys look at maybe restoring her base stats and maybe nerfing her marks a bit? Easier marks are great but what isn't great is that Kindred still gets destroyed by other meta junglers early game. Maybe start by giving her 27 base armor back?

All I want in life is base armor back. I could finally die happy.

Her winrate is pretty balanced even against Lee Sin and Graves right now. She has positive matchups vs. Hecarim and Kha'Zix.

If you're jungling her properly then she takes pretty much no damage from her first clear despite the armor difference. Her base damage already amounts to over half of the opponent's HP in a couple seconds. More buffs aren't necessary.

I think that totally restoring their stats might be a bit bad, but giving them some of them back would be nice. Maybe having health roughly equal to the average marksman (or, hell, even only roughly equal to the squishier marksmen) without having to have item 3071 would be nice. Semi-adequate armor and MR, too. Maybe even having a slightly higher base AD than Soraka would be nice. I get that they can't be allowed to be too powerful, as the nature of their passive allows Kindred to become the strongest force in the game (one-shotting everything that isn't a building at 8000 stacks), but it's just a bit absurd that every single champion in the game has every stat higher than them (obvious exceptions such as base Gnar or Thresh's base armor apply). But to nerf their passive at all would, as of right now, remove their last shred of hope of being viable, unless accompanied by a sizable buff to their stats.

The recent changes to Wolf torturing you their passive marks was nice, and it made things a bit easier on them, but they're still kinda screwed, unless they're either lucky or against a braindead jungler.

I'd say a small buff of her ms and maybe alittle longer dash on her Q would be a good small buff. This would help her get her marks quicker by allowing her to get in and out of the enemy jungle much quicker and avoiding deaths
