Kindred's ult is not a nuke

Z Statistic··104 votes·4,750 views

Stop getting out of it when you're about to die. I swear, this happens literally every single time I'm in a game vs Kindred. My teammate is dueling Kindred, it goes badly for Kindred so she ults, and my teammate leaves the ult area when their health gets too low.

This shit is more frustrating than when people don't grab the lantern.

Today I learned Zyra is a furry. Is there a word for erotically dressing as a plant?

Not Human: in technicality, at the very least, furry. And Gargoyles count hands down either way.

LordForrest1 votes

wat. thats not what a furry is. I think you need to search furry with the filters off to see what they actually are.

Knoyle1 votes

What!? That's the worst way to explain what a furry is ever. Just say Anthropomorphic Animals like Fox McCloud or something. And there is plenty Furry art that isn't "inappropriate". So what are you trying to get at with "safe search off" exactly?

LordForrest1 votes

I know, i wasn't actually try to explain what a furry is. Its late, i am sleep deprived, and i get really twisted. So i apologize for that. Honestly the safest bet would be the furry Wikipedia page, I hope.

Edit- Just realized, Fox isn't a furry. He is something the furry community gets behind, but he isn't a furry.

Double Edit- Damn double posts.

Knoyle1 votes

I just used fox as an example since using him would help get the point across faster. Fox is an Anthro. There is also no EXACT definition for a furry. That is why it's a bit simpler to group things like plants and aliens with it. Also a another word for what Fox is would be "Kemono" as opposed to Ahri who would be more along the lines of a "Nekomimi". She has more human traits than animal while Fox resembles... well more of a fox. That's why in terms of Anthros Rengar Renekton Nasus Twitch Kindred etc. are closer to the "meaning" than her.

The furry fandom is a subculture interested in fictional anthropomorphic animal characters with human personalities and characteristics.[1] Examples of anthropomorphic attributes include exhibiting human intelligence and facial expressions, the ability to speak, walk on two legs, and wear clothes.

That was taken from the wiki page. As you can see plants and aliens that don't fit the requirements are not capable of being grouped with furries.

Also i misspoke about Fox, seeing as i thought we were delving into a different aspect of furries. Honestly i blame the internet for that fact that when i see mention of furries, i immediately assume the sexual aspect of that community.

So other then removing plants and most aliens from your furry definition list, carry on.

Alistar Cassiopeia Elise Fizz Kindred Nami Nasus Renekton Rengar TahmKench Twitch Volibear Warwick

All qualify. Each are in more closely in appearance to an animal than a Human. However they still have a decent amount of human resemblance in shape. Wukong I cannot say for absolutely certain because he seems to need just a BIT more fur. I would throw him in the "Neko" category with Ahri. It's also arguable that some like Teemo could qualify, but as they are, from what I understand, not related to animals in actuality I will leave them out.

Others like Anivia and RekSai are much too feral to count.

Honestly just look at Zootopia, Star Fox games, even Warner brother's cartoons. Those all have plenty of examples.

And for just one more way of comparison http://en.wikifur.com/wiki/Kemono https://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/nekomimi ^while it's only referring to cats this still fits with any character that would otherwise only resemble the animal loosely with ears and a tail and slight features.

LordForrest1 votes

Uh, i have no problem with those characters being included. My issue was with your statement that plants and aliens are furries and that Gargoyles are definitely in regardless.

Knoyle1 votes

I didn't mean that Plants and Aliens actually classify as furries. What I was trying to say is that they are easily grouped in the same categories as not being human. From what I have seen there is not that much of a fanbase for plant people as opposed to animal people. I know that there is a huge distinction but it's just meant to simplify the case. The reason i drop gargoyles in the same category is because they usually have been portrayed in a more animal type position in my experience like bats, gryphons, dragons, etc.

LordForrest1 votes

Well there is two types of gargoyles, the mythic creatures and the magical constructs. Galio is a magical construct. Yes, for non-human they would work, but using the term furry specifically doesn't include them. I am not trying to be an ass or anything just saying you need to be more clear because you could confuse someone who doesn't know.

Jusat wanted to comment on this, specifically: amumu MIGHT be a a yordle, and therefore a furry.

YZaCmX2XRL1 votes

Yordles aren't furry's... Furrys are weird HUMANS who dress up in costumes. And what do people know them for? Having sex in their costumes. That's the ONLY reason anybody knows what a furry even is.

SociopathFriend2 votes

While I want to be on your side in theory- I can't help but wonder as I look at your list- the hell is your definition of a furry?

Gigglebytes5 votes

So it seems like you're just throwing all non-humans into a furry bucket. For goodness sakes some of those guys don't even have fur! I think furries have a bit of a sexual connotation, or I guess are anthropomorphic, which doesn't necessarily make them a furry. Let's do a rundown.

Ok, here we go. Ahri: I'd call that a furry, good job. Alistar: Uh, he's a bull he has fur and is anthropomorphic-ish. I'll give you a C on that one. Anivia: Literally just ice. She's also a bird. Why didn't you throw Valor in too? This one fails. Azir: This is a guy that pretty much turned into a Egyptian god. I wouldn't call Ra a furry. Cassiopia: Sexy snake girl. I'll give you this one. Elise: Sexy spider girl. That makes 3 Fizz: He's a fish, bro, a fish. Gnar: Yordles are an intelligent species and the males are the only ones with fur. Might as well throw yourself in. Hecarim: Centaurs have never fallen in the furry category, especially ghosty ones. Nami: Mermaids are super common fantasy creatures. Not furry. (fishes aren't furries, guys) Nunu: An actual person riding a yeti. No furies in sight. Shyvana: Eh, this one is understandable. I wouldn't say furry just cause when she's a person, she's a person and when a dragon, a dragon. Swain: A guy with crow powers... Really man? Tahm: A frog... He's a frog. I don't see gromp up here, you racist. Skarner: Literally nothing furry or anthropomorphic Udyr: A guy. An actual guy that does karate. smh Teemo: See Gnar Tristana: Female yordles are even less applicable than male yordles, because the only thing differentiating them from hobbits is their blue skin. Poppy: Take a look at trist again Twitch: Anthropomorphic-ish rat. Grade there? D Volibear: A polar bear walks on its hind legs and suddenly he's a furry? Wukong: Monkies are supposed to be anthropomorphic... Ziggs: Yordles are never furries. Also I don't see Heim, or Rumble. Kindred: Anthropomorphic sheep. I'll give this one to you. Rengar: Admittedly anthropomorphic, lacking in most other furry categories. Renekton: See Azir Nausus: What about Xerath? Huh? He ascended too! Zyra: Sexy plant girl. Woo. Hoo. Nidalee: She's more furry than Shyvana tbh Kha'Zix He's a bug. Move along. Galio: Gargoyle Amumu: Yordle and a mummy. You yordle prejudiced bastard. I don't see Lulu! Bard: Not even anthropomorphic.

Lets tally that up. 6.5 Out of 33. An F minus for you, sir.

Furries are just anthropomorphic animals/people interested in them. Fish are animals, therefore anthropomorphic fish (fizz, kench (who is a catfish not a frog), and arguably Nami since she's an anthropomorphic fish girl with a mermaid tail) are furries. I don't see why you accepted Snakes and Spiders as furries but decided Fish weren't.

Udyr is a guy that dresses up like various animals. He is a furry. Swain turns into an anthropomorphic crow. He is a furry.

Azir is a dude with a bird's head/helmet shaped like one. He's not a furry. However, Renekton and Nasus are anthropomorphic animals, and therefore are.

Yordles are an intelligent species where the males are all furries. The females are not.

Anivia and Skarner are not anthropomorphic and are therefore not furries.

Also, Warwick belongs in there too.

I don't see why you are reluctant to admit Alistar, Twitch, and Rengar are furries (when they clearly are) but easily accept Kindred as one. It seems like you have a problem with male furries.

Gigglebytes1 votes

The thing is, in my definition fur/anthropomorphism does not necessarily mean furry. It sounds like your definition is a little different from mine. Kindred got a free pass because she started the conversation.

All the fish people aren't furries JUST because they're anthropomorphic. If you're short and never shave you could look like a yordle, therefore I don't think that mans furry. Udyr has a few skins, native Americans were never furries.

Zorae421 votes

Okay. I still don't see why you say an anthropomorphic lion, lamb, snake, and spider are all furries but somehow an anthropomorphic catfish isn't. Clearly fur isn't a requirement. And you accept humans with animal traits (Ahri) and just a straight up anthropomorphic lion (rengar) as both being furries. So what is it that makes Fizz and Kench not furries? What is different between them and Rengar and Alistar?

Except the male Yordles definitely have animal ears and non-human feet. And no amount of not shaving is going to produce a coat of fur like that, unless there's a very rare medical disorder that can cause it (which doesn't really count). They seriously look likeanthropomorphic guinea pigs (Kennen) and cat things (ziggs and rumble).

I apologize about Udyr, I was thinking of the definitely not udyr skin. I forgot regular udyr is only wearing a pelt on his head.

Gigglebytes1 votes

Ahri is a fox that turned into a human and uses charms and sexiness to do things. In my head, thats a bout as furry as it gets. The thing about Fizz and Kench is that they're less anthropomorphic. Rengar and Alistair have more clearly personified traits where if fizz didn't walk he wouldn't look very human, take off Kench's clothes and he looks a lot less human.

The point for yordles wasn't whether a human could look like one, but to point out how similar they are to humans. Thats they're species, thats how they are. They haven't been anthropomorphicized and there isn't anything sexual about it. Its just a different species.

TRIGGEREDRRERD

Not all are, but there's no denying that a large percentage of the furry community is heavily sexualized, no matter what people may claim.

If you look at the stats for the main furry site (Fur Affinity), you'll find that 40-50% (maybe more) of the submitted works are rated mature/adult (which is basically pronz). The view ratio between general works (SFW) to mature/adult works (NSFW) is overwhelmingly high in the mature/adult side's favor. There's also been plenty of tests done to see which is more popular for the average submission. If a random penor is included in a picture (to make the rating go up to mature/adult), then it gets, on average, 3x the views when compared to a similar submission without a penor.

All that data is just for one of the sites, too. Other furry sites are known for being even more sexualized (with one focusing solely on content that Fur Affinity banned for being too heinous).

Not all furries are part of the sexual side of it, but a lot are (maybe even the majority). Anyone who denies it are lying or extremely ignorant.

Well as the supposed Grim Reaper of Runeterra, I think an ult that saves more people than Soraka seems... stupid.

As a rework, maybe Kindred ult SHOULD be a nuke. It should take longer to finish but any enemy left inside instantly dies. It would add more risk/reward to the champ as opposed to http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-wmN8MaNrlsI/Vf7QUyqHDlI/AAAAAAAAC9U/-Qmr-VwAJBo/s1600/tumblr_m5klg1iZ1i1r3tqll.gif

as the grim reaper she should choose whether someone lives or die. in this case a short moment where she makes it so that you literally cannt die. but only for a moment since death is inevitable and can only be prevented but for a brief moment

My favorite was Kindred dropping ult -> entire enemy team huddles inside it -> Bard ult zonya's them all (none of them got the heal). I was the bard. Kindred was ADC. Our team got the ace.
