I was wondering if kindred was a good adc this meta and so on? And if so can I get a build for them so their not squish?

I've used Kindred as an adc a few times and have done exceptionally well.

She has high early damage and sustain but you're not going to be able to stack your passive reliably. She falls off pretty hard mid-late, she just doesn't scale as well as a traditional adc.

Most ADC builds tend to be a bit squishy, you can opt for a bruiser build but it won't be all that effective.

Granted, if you're playing Kindred in the jungle she'll still function as an ADC (lane and roles are technically separate, if I took a mage bot lane as the carry they would still be a mage) but you'll have a bit more room to build diversely if you so choose.

I don't think she particularly great in lane now, even considering utility of her ult.

You're still 500 range, remember this.

Her health sustain was nerfed. Her mana costs were increased. Her damage was decreased... You don't stack easily, even if crabs spawn near you luckily; getting it costs you a free recall/gank/or farm.

She isn't a contested pick in the jungle anymore even. Still played tho. But not contested.
