Kindred - Now a bot main ADC?
Kindred's gotten a bit stronger since the new 7.13 patch, as have other champions, but in such a way that Kindred as a champion has genuinely changed.
No longer capable of the same early damage output The Eternal Hunters once had to go toe to toe with enemy junglers, Kindred is now often and rather easily bullied in the Jungle.
Instead where Kindred appears to shine is in the Bot lane where their "W" lets them harass enemy laners for free and help their support zone out minions, and over time, Kindred's range improves.
This is not entirely a bad thing - Kindred is supposed to be a ranged champion - but the question now is if the new rework and buffs had simply strengthened Kindred as an ADC - but left them too weak as a jungler.
The additional range and some of wolf's percent health damage as of 7.13 helps some with Kindred's ability to protect themselves but most jungle fights happen in the jungle where additional range is somewhat pointless as many melee junglers have significant gap closers that once used, leave Kindred guaranteed squished.
So play Kin as a bot laner for now - The Eternal Hunters is still too easily bullied to be jungle meta just yet.
exist, interms of mobility, free harass, and ally saving. The only reason to pick kindred AD is because you main kindred.
