He is so.... normal. No creativity whatsoever. He is just a bunch of things we already have on other champions, but he has a "cool" spirit that deals something for him too... and it is the only cool part, but it doesn't much at all. Maximum health damage, mobility, heal with invunerability. It's is basically vayne, bardo+ fiora ult

Complains for Ekko overloaded kit

Now complains for a new champ having a simple kit ?

Who the hel thinks Kindred is simple?

That shit is overloaded as fuck, but still manages to be incredibly bland.

Haha, exactly my thought. They have some sort of pet gameplay and somewhat reminds me of Nocturne (the global threat) and also are semi-ranged as jungle - that seems really reasonable and and like healthy gameplay. I'll take him to toplane no matter what!

Expect the un-expected. Probably the most new [abilities] and extremely fun champion: Bard

I agree.

Despite the awesome artistic design, it is one of the most bland champs we've seen in a while.

It's just a hodgepodge of things we have seen way to many times before, and it's interactions with the wolf are very weak, as in Quinn and Valor levels of weak

Both Lamb and Wolf have three abilities.

Lamb marks champs, Wolf marks monsters. Lamb is kitey and Wolf charges in to attack. (W and E) Lamb saves lives. So it's 6 effects between the two of them while being divided into 3 each for the interactions between lamb and wolf.

MarshallBananna3 votes

that's gasping at straws.

That's like saying Lulu is a dual character, since Pix affects Q placements and follows the shield.

You could replace Wolf with anything at it would be the same. Garen and Warwick target enemies without a "companion" Tons of champions have "linear skillshots with a slow" without a "companion" Trunde, Fiora and others create areas that buff them while inside, without a "companion"

the interactions aren't there. Wolf might as well be a nameless particle effect. There is no dual identity. It doesn't feel like two creatures working together.

I can't really pinpoint why I'm I felt nothing after I saw all the abilities this champion had. Maybe it's because it's a 'two person' champion but it FEELS like you could have just stuck all this on an Ashe clone and called it a day.

The kit doesn't feel like it takes advantage of the wolf being there. If Lamb marks champions, Lamb could've marked jungle monsters too. Wolf's Frenzy only uses wolf like a mini Malz minion and could have been explained with some kind of other magic, dance of arrows is... Dance of arrows. And Lambs E could have been explained by something else, like a stronger arrow, or using those runes. The ult doesn't even attempt to put Wolf in there.

I'm sure someone could say that Wolf is being taken advantage of, but I don't feel it at all. Lulu gets just as much, if not more, interaction out of Pix to me (her Q actually has a different method of aiming depending on where pix is, Pix moves with her E, pix fires things with his passive and if she moves him to another champion Pix shoots with them I believe). Wolf bites a guy and makes Q have a smaller cooldown while he's biting... Woo.

I disagree I personally really find him interesting in being and adc jungler and I personally also love his design and form of him, will have to wait to listen to full lore to give my complete response to him but so far I like him in his form and also note that his ult will also heal enemy's in the area around it meaning it could leave some tricky situations of when is the best time to use it and how aswell

Another faceless , emotionless , no personality champion with a 3 stack passive ,hyper mobile and a insane safe net ability that punish aggressive play , if riot was like this from the start this game should have never been popular, i strongly dislike what riot is showing and i used to love this game.

The lore and concept are really good,but the kit is just ˝meh˝.

JohnJonesy3 votes

The kit may be, when divided, very unoriginal, but remember, this is a jungler design we're talking about. What's important is how the champ interacts with the jungle and the allies when ganking. This isn't a fancy solo laner kit, it's a more team-based practicality kit with an AWESOME paint job.

PokladnicaZla1 votes

When I said meh,I meant is should have been more dual.

What do you mean by devided? Team-based kit ,reminds me of LeeSin .Wonder how this will turn out...

Chromatic Eagle4 votes

I'd rather have a simple kit that can be used creatively, than a complicated kit that turns into a balancing nightmare.

Kindred's an experiment: 'marksman created for the jungle'

That's the reason he / she / it's coming out. Does it work? If not, they'll go the way of Yorick, but not before being overtuned as fuck and experiencing a FotM phase.

I'm just impressed they managed to release yet another champion that can troll allies. Thanks Rito.

How?

Kindred's ult makes everyone inside of it immune to death for the duration and heals everyone inside of it at the end, both allies and enemies.

Oh, well, it's like a better Bard now. Doesn't stop you from moving.

My god this is gonna make some champs busted...

Actually, this is the opposite of Bard's Ult and Tahm's (E) --- ''easy trolling.''

Kindred's Ult is like Ekko's (W) but a bit more glorified. With a Kayle ult and a Bard Heal at the end.

This this is what happens: Of course because she/they is/are brand new, this is what happens. --- Watch as Jayce flashes AWAY from their Ult, while Ekko stays in it. Ekko flashed but got the Heal right before he did.

XIII Vanitas2 votes

I'm kinda disappointed too. It's basically a more balanced Vayne with a Kalista-like theme and a Tryndamere's AoE ground targeted ult + Q.

Anyways, it's a marksman able to jungle efficiently, so I approve of it. :)

But the Free Tryndamere ult to teammates sounds cool. Imagine Having:

Zilean Support+ item 3026 Tristana ADC+ item 3026 Anivia Mid+ item 3026 New Champ Jg + item 3026 Yorick Top + item 3026

That team would never die.
