I like the visuals but the rest doesn't really inspire me to play her at all. Oh well Feels like massive wasted potential on such a cool concept.

Between Morde and Kindred, it appears Riot has reconsidered their enforcement of classic lane archetypes.

I feel like the size of the grave is kinda cheesy, if it's going to effect enemies I'd rather they had to commit to melee range to get the effect

Headbutt the ulted dude away!

Tbh designing a marksman (as in a ranged champion that isn't a magical caster) that can function well in the jungle sounds like an interesting space to me, Monte. Especially the whole "get him incentives to jungle, or clear/sustain help that won't be stronger if used in a lane" paradigm.

Has to pass the lee sin bar though. It is pretty cool that they trying out more stuff. I'd hoped their feature the whole split person or dual nature thing more than just the visuals. Something like Hel from Smite.

Not enough swapping form champions already?

I think Riot's decision to not force ADC to be played in bottom lane is a huge mistake. It is hard to shake off 4+ years of tradition. The players won't like it.

wow, Riot is going full doto and basically trashing their old safe philosophy

Kindred ult prevents ALL deaths inside it, ally or enemy, then applies a heal to ALL champions.

you can actually heal your enemies....

Another thing that makes me curious is that it says Kindred can choose which enemy champion they mark. Azir can target his passive too, but that's a specific case (right-click on tower ruins). How can you use the passive without adding a new hotkey to the game, and does that pave the way for future stuff/QoL?

That W zone seems huge. And the E slow short (and shorter than the delay to activate their marks).

Not quite sure how the passive works. Do you have to kill or assist in the kill while the mark is active? Before the mark is active? Any time after the mark activates?
What fun is it being cool if you can’t wear a sombrero?

This champion design seems pretty uninspired/boring to me.

Marksman junglers shouldn't be a thing.

"The players" can get off my lawn.

From my experience in various levels of ranked most people really don't give a crap about the traditional setup. They'll play either whatever they want or whatever works. Yeah, some people will complain but it will be a vocal minority.

I'm reserving judgment until I get to actually try it.

I can see Kindred being a huge asset in counter-engage compositions. It doesn't matter if the enemy team smashes you first if you can smash lock them down just before the ult wears off and clean up.

Which is to say Kindred will probably be meh in solo queue for a long time unless his/her/its numbers are wacky.

I find this really interesting. The last few champs have had mechanics thought I would have never imagined Riot implementing before (Bard and Tahm Kench ult come to mind). Actually it's probably not a coincidence they have all been ults. The rest of the kit is kinda meh, but I do like to see them doing more interesting stuff like this. Never thought I'd see Shallow Grave in LoL that's for sure.

Tahm kench w is unique too, it allows you to troll your adc by eating him and running in to double feed

I think Tahm Kench ally W is the more interesting design than his ulti. It's like disruption but has even more troll potential which I thought Riot would never do. Glad they got over their fear of the players

Not as good as Wisp TP though.

To be fair, you can do the tahm kench thing starting at level 1. At least wisp needs to hit 6 before that
