you can't say that death and healing is the same thing, if Lamb could creat life that would fight to end life and then die to balance how many souls are taken each day. now that would be yin and yang, and what about Karma?, wasnt her lore and kit was all about yin and yang balance?. so Riot gutted her for this new champion, that does not even feel right?.

wolf does not even feel importent, he feels like a stupid kid/monster lamb needs to take care off, because if she won't keep him in check the world will have to many people killed. if yin and yang are doing the same thing, than how is this balance from both sides?, if I had 2 monsters that kill people, where's the yin and yang?. so wolf kills them hardcore while Lamb make them die fast without pain (let's say), how's that any different?, to die is to die, it does not matter how you die, the outcome is importent, not the way you die.

and both champions kill, the kit makes it seem like wolf is less importent, which makes him like a slave to Lamb, now that's Karma my friends.. (if you get the joke)

Yin and yang exist in everything,so while life can be seen as yang and death as yin,there is yin and yang in both of them.

Kindred represents the yin and yang of death. Wolf represents the gruesome death of those who try to escape death,while lamb represents the acceptance of death. The reason why wolf seems like a child is because wolf knows not very much but feels a lot,while lamb feels little,but knows much(which fits the whole yin-yang theme since both have a bit of the other). Also Yang is active,while Yin is passive,which is why Lamb is the one you control,because she is the active one,while wolf is the passive one.

Karma also focuses on duality,but on a different aspect.She is about finding the right balance between agressiveness and peace.While duality was always a part of her,it isn't that much of a focus for her. I'd say it is similar to Annie &Brand. Annie was originally the only champ in the game who uses fire,but the main focus of her character is being this creepy child with the monster teddy,which is why it is ok that we got Brand later on who is completely focused on fire.Similar Karma has duality as a part of her character,but the main focus is being this sort of enlightened mage(especially after the rework),while kindred is far more focused on the duality-aspect(and its not even like this is all about their character,there is of course also the fact that they are death)

kindred and lamb are yin and yang brought to perspective. yes they both kill bc both are equal but both can not survive without the other noone is perfect not everyone is good and everyone is bad there is always a bit of good in bad peopl and there is a bit of bad in good people balance everyone has it they cant survive without other
