I really do feel that Kindred needs a better ultimate, it makes loving him so much harder when you try to use your ultimate, only to keep the enemy alive, and to heal them. And then they just one shot you. Maybe if his ultimate only kept his allies and monsters or whatnot alive it would make us a little less likely to rage quit.

DeracadaVenom1 votesUlt can be useful, thats one of the reasons Kindred is so hard. Finding a good place and way to use your ult. And when you do land a good ult it feels great!
Brotha1 votesThe ultimate doesn't even make thematic sense. They're harvesters of souls, they do not control life. They offer you the choice of a peaceful death or an agonizing death.
GreenLore2 votesThey are implied to be death itself,meaning that if they refuse to harvest your soul,then you simply won't die,no matter what others would do to you.
So yeah,they might be the only being in existence that can truly deny someone death.

Riot already said this is not the case. They are not Death/Grim Reaper.

Pardon what?.... Kindred is, and has always been depicted as Runeterra's personification of Death. I think ur confusing it with them being "Life and Death"... they only represent Death. They don't "kill"... they "collect" you when it is your time to go, depending on how ur attitude is Lamb give a clean swift death with her arrow (if u accept ur death) or Wolf will brutally, and gruesomely hunt you down (if u don't accept it's ur time and try to run).... It doesn't matter what ur moral standings are... just depends on whether u embrace or deny ur time has come.

Kindred in a sense decides whether or not it is ur time to go. Lamb's Respite is more closely related to the original interaction between Kindred and Magda, where Magda was spared from being killed. If you control death, u dont necessarily control life, but you are influential upon life... If you aren't allowed to die then you are living.
4 Step Cadence1 votesThe issue I have with Kindred's ult is that, surprisingly, not a lot of people know how it works. I've had teammates leave my ult after I used it to save them, only to have them walk/flash out of it and die a few seconds later. It also works to my advantage though, since I often get enemies that stand outside my ult and try to kill me because they don't understand how it works.
