My favorite neglected champion.

Kura Lovota·Feb 3, 2018·30 votes·3,790 views

It's been nearly two years now and Kindred still only has two skins. I realize they're not very popular at all, and that's all that matters when it comes to a champion getting skins, but maybe the waits been long enough? There's plenty of good concepts out there that i'd love to see in game.

(Not my designs) Blood Moon Kindred Elder Wood Kindred Even Something like a Chroma for their base skin would be a nice change.

Maybe it's just me, since they're my favorite champion (actually got me back into the game after a 2 year break when they were first teased) but I do think the wait has been long enough. It get's boring seeing the same two skins over and over, even more so when her base skin is better than them.

While I'm on the topic, maybe Kled could get some love too? I'd love to see something like "Dragon Tamer Kled."

yea but she has been out longer and the skin she got is abseltue trash even worst than the default

Rude NameFeb 4, 20183 votes

They* are also more popular, and probably do deserve a skin first. But hey, it’s not a competition, and if either champ gets a skin, I’ll rejoice.

AlexTheGrandWolfFeb 10, 20181 votes

And who’s fault is that she’s not popular ¿riots.

SatansLittleS1utFeb 5, 20181 votes

its cuz the champ is currently absolute trash

AlexTheGrandWolfFeb 10, 20181 votes

You would know you have less expirence than an average kindred player so how would you know.

_Looks at Shen _ There are champs that are worse off.

Sadly, Kindred doesn't seem that great right now and Rito probably wont mess with her for a few more patches. Thematic wise I love Kindred.. sux that she's not getting any love.

Change her ulti and tweak her "mark" thingy to add some player choice in it, then everything will be fine.

Yorick took eight years since arclight skin, shen is the champion who got the torch passed onto, sitting at seven years without a new skin now

I have Blood Moon Kindred, Dragon Trainer Kindred, Will o' the Wisp Kindred and Elderwood Kindred sitting in my sketchbook rotting because my digital art sucks. On top of that I have Elderwood A. Sol and Pool Party A. Sol, Dragon Master Illaoi, Death Blossom Jhin, and probably more that I'm forgetting. I've got too much spare time on my hands so I just draw skin concepts all day.

For chromas, if they aren't already a thing, I'd like some that make Cass look like different types of snakes, and Desperada Cass's chromas could make her look like different types of rattlesnakes.

There's just a lot that can be done for a lot of champions that isn't getting done.

Seriously, i like Kindred gameplay-wise. She shows a ton of complexity mechanic-wise and has a really good theme.

Imagine a serious, Legendary skin for her...my god..

Shen hasn't gotten a skin for 5 years he's basically yorick. Can people shut the fuck up

Sp33d Zer0Feb 4, 20182 votes

Kindred got a new skin in May of 2016. That's a little over a year and a half. We have a lot of champs that are similar or more popular who haven't had a skin in over 4 years.

I would like for her to get a new skin, I think her skins are very cool; but I do think there are others who should get the attention from the art team more.

AlexTheGrandWolfFeb 4, 20183 votes

the super galaxy one?it is trash,most kindred mains prefer using her original than actually PAYING money for that trash skin.

AlexTheGrandWolfFeb 4, 20182 votes

Kindred has been out longer than most of them,lissandra has good skins and talyah and aureiol sol still need,

Frozen DivaFeb 4, 20182 votes

But I was talking about MY favorite neglected champions. Ofc kindred deserves a new skin, too. It's been 2 years for Lissandra now so yeah... not to mention that she desperately needs some gameplay changes.

AlexTheGrandWolfFeb 10, 20181 votes

The skins she has are actually good tho

TattersallFeb 4, 20182 votes

Imo Kindred is the absolute coolest champion in the game lore-wise and art-wise. Too bad I can't jungle for crap.

KerrophFeb 6, 20182 votes

ive been asking for this for a while now... we will probably see 30 more ahri Ahri , and Jinx Jinx skins before they even remember that kindred Kindred is a champion...

KanzlerFeb 4, 20181 votes

Kalista has been around almost 4 years and only has 1 skin (+esport skins which dont count for skin consideration).

Lios AshenbladeFeb 4, 20184 votes

KanzlerFeb 4, 20181 votes

esport, release skin, esport

AlexTheGrandWolfFeb 4, 20182 votes

It's been nearly two years now and Kindred still only has two skins.

that's better than quite a few others to be honest.

Mystery GhostFeb 4, 20181 votes

yea many awesome skin themes fit with Kindred

AIIanFeb 4, 20181 votes

It's either Lamb/she or Kindred/they, not Kindred/she. They're a duo.

And they also need some serious kit changes. Used to play them adc back when they had a passive healing on E. Good sustain, great all-in potential at level 3, overall a very fun adc to bring to the botlane. Every change from then on only managed to make the kit feels more and more clunky, to the point that playing them now is an ordeal for me.

KerrophFeb 6, 20181 votes

I think there main problem is that there just not that fun... they need a rework (aka Evelin Evelynn )

SatansLittleS1utFeb 5, 20181 votes

when the champ isnt absolutely useless in almost all the games i see her on and has a good playrate and winrate then she'll get more skins

KrigjerFeb 6, 20181 votes

I understand they're working on the backlog of champions that haven't gotten new skins in a long time, but it's going so slowly it feels like nothing at all.
