The fact riot thinks kindred is a balanced champion and healthy shows how fail they are at balance.

Seriously this is one of the more broken champions they have yet to release. Much like how everyone said Kalista was trash on release and i kept chirping on about how insanely OP she was ( how many nerfs? an would still be pick or ban minus the juggernaut fiasco) once people actually get good at this abomination known as kindred will be well over a year of constant nerfing before the champ is finally super strong but finally not OP as the day is long.

Can you at least explain why she is OP, it is reasons like this no one actually looks towards boards for balance.

I was going to type out the myriad of reasons you are wrong but I am betting it's not worth my time having you ignore thought out feedback, so I'll just down vote.

I have no doubt at all Riot intentionally releases new champs OP. They want to make money, and the surest way to do that is releasing a champ that is OP so everyone has to buy it to compete.

They released Bard UP and his sales were pretty bad.

A well timed lee knock back will push her out of her ult. I aslo like tristana for the knock back as well as the rocket jump to immediately escape wolf. Vayne knock back could probably work well but I'd rather have a tank knock back like alistar. Tryndamere ult lasts longer and can be the finishing assassin that has no problem waiting in the center of the circle.

I could give more counterplay but you haven't really given play that you seem to be most outraged by.

does anyone even read the "before you post" thread right at the top of these forums anymore?

I agree that kindred is definitely overpowered, but you offer nothing as to why. so people just disrespect your opinion, especially when you present your opinion in a demeaning fashion.

A better way of presenting it I feel is like:

"So I feel Riot is missing the mark on not seeing that Kindred is overpowered. The reason for this is I feel her passive deals too much dmg as well as your mobility in her W is too opressive."

those aren't necessarily why I personally think kindred is op, but that is how I would present my opinion to riot if I did.

I'm actually pretty ok with them right now. Their passive is probably a little too strong, and their ult is pretty situationally insane but they're squishy and easy to catch out in any lane. Definitely not Chronobroken like Ekko was.

In all honest kindred is fine, it's easy to deny them stacks and that's literally where all the power is, I had 300 AD on kindred and my Q only had (+30) dmg on it her scaling is almost nothing. Kindred really isn't that good she's squishy and relies on stacks it's just up to your team to deny them

Is kindred OP? Yes, probably. Is kindred OP compared to Elise, Lee Sin, Jinx or Vayne? Nope.

I think she needs some tweaking, but I know that she has weakness and so her strength isn't OP
