What's the magic password to make her do damage? Is there a code hidden away in the annals of the League of Legends somewhere that lets her do something? I know there's people out there who do good with her, but out of all the games I've played with her, I feed incredibly hard compared to any other jungler I play. After looking her up I've found that a lot of people have come to a general consensus that Kindred just sucks right now. Are there any plans to make her useful?

I looked up her old kit pre-rework and it honestly seems better than her current kit. What if they just added the on-hit damage she had before onto the current kit she has now? I don't think she needs a full rework just a few things, because holy shit shes really bad right now (IMO). Tbh seems to be a far superior jungler, and hes not even supposed to be a jungler.

Is there any reason why she isn't getting buffed?

Idk probably since she/he/it isn't a "flashy ultra mobile popular favored champion"

Kindred is just a really hard jungler to play right in general if not the hardest. Keep in mind even before her rework she took a lot of jungle experience and map awareness to be able to effectively farm marks and counter jungle properly.

I'd say the main difference is that old Kindred felt really rewarding to get marks on. You spent more of your early game counter jungling and warding your enemies jungle than actually ganking a lot but damn did you ever scale hard if you got those marks. Now even if you get marks you need a lot of CS to have any impact on the game. They made her scale better with a lot of gold towards late game but the old Kindred scaled a lot harder on a budget.

Kindred pretty much got nerfed since her passive rework, I played her a ton before her passive was changed and I did amazing. But now... She plays completely different. Before you could build her any way you want due to her passive dealing %Health, now you're forced to build her like an ADC.

But anyways, in terms of a build, I usually build Warrior Enhancement, Shiv, IE, Bloodthirster/BOTRK, Berserkers, Dominiks Regards/Mortal Reminder
