My biggest problem with the new champ

the ultimate

this ultimate looks like it might make any "wombo combo" teamfight comp completely garbage.

this is a bad idea for the game. why not have it single target even? like kayles ulty? I don't know, but it just seems like it would ruin so many things about the game.

Edit: Ok let me try to step back here, I really don't like how a marksman will have a strong teamfight or 1v1 winning tool, similar to tryndamere/bard. It doesn't make sense on a ranged champ in my opinion, and it can have terrible interactions with other characters.

Yeah it's basically a massive middle finger to Katarina MonkeyKing Yasuo Amumu Orianna Ziggs and anyone else with a huge AOE teamfight wining ult.

Because League already has a bunch of single target NOPE ults. Lulu Zilean Kayle Soraka Shen Yorick (Soraka's is global, but whatever).

man, now I have to actually think about when I'll go in and smash the enemy team before they can react!

And that's only if I don't catch Kindred out and kill her before the CC wears off, or she outplays us by ulting first!

OH NOOO!!!!

QQ'ing on a champion without numbers on the kit while he's not even playable on the PBE ?

Lucian was considered Shit on PBE, ended up broken OP.

Tahm Kench kit felt OP on PBE and ended up being a little Underpowered until buffs to make him fine.

Lissandra felt like shit on PBE ended up Broken OP on live.

Zyre felt balanced on PBE, ended up in a hotfix nerf on Live in LESS THAN A WEEK.

Can you stop and just give it a chance for it to hit live first ? Champs often ends up the exact opposite they felt by reading the kit or what we see from PBE.

why not have it single target even?

So, basically a shittier Zilean ultimate? What's even of having the point then?

It's not likely to completely invalidate AoE ultimates. Wombo combo teams that get off a good series of ultimates are going to wipe out all of their opponents health, and whatever Kindred leaves them won't be enough to fight on. I'd be more concerned about teams based on picks. If you're designed to throw yourselves into the enemy team and kill 1-2 people very quickly with a round of cooldowns, then Kindred preventing you from doing so will be way more likely to screw you.

Its not fun being on the other end of a wombo combo espiaclly against no skill combos like annie ult+anything
