@meddler Is anyone looking into Kindred? And I believe Jungle clears are too fast

Kindred Truly feels terrible to play, There is a major difference from their power level compared to the power level of khazix, Lee Sin, Vi, Shaco, Udyr, Shyvanna, graves, even a yi jungle. Kindred's primary role is the Jungle and I feel they offer no unique strengths to where one would pick them over these others. I also feel as though something like a Teemo Jungle could dominate them and invade them.

Secondly I feel as though the jungle is giving too much experience or the clears are happening too fast, I have been Ganked on a consistent basis game after game Top lane while being level 2. Heck not even over extended I could have just killed the first 3 minions and be in the middle of the lane and received a gank at level 2 by a level 3 Jungler. I remember last season you all had changed this because you said that Junglers were deciding the lanes before the laners and I feel as though we are back at this place once again.

It would mean so much to receive a reply! Thank you for all you guys do.

Even if not looking into KIndred, Aatorx has to be one of the worst champions in the entire game, and I believe he needs something to even make any part of playing him acceptable. He is so bad right now I think he should be disabled.

Finally, are you guys okay with Kled's power level without Skarrl?

The Krug XP buff is getting junglers a level up on laners, I'd definitely be wary of ganks at 2 like you said. As for kindred, I think you need to just go split push and auto towers while you have red buff. Her attack speed + red will melt towers. Removing the Gift of Heavy Hands kind of nerfed that strategy though :p

Kindred is the champion you pick when you have no confidence in winning a game, if you see a jungler lock her in then they already expect to lose the game based on the teamcomp the team has.

She is a reverse scaling champion that's not even that strong early peaks mid game then drops into the gutter late game, add to that she will be invalidated once jungler Cammile comes out who is far more mobile then her, has a better gap closer + slow along side true damage and will absolutely be a god tier jungler.
