Kindred Matchups Overview

Kindred General information

Kindred tips and tricks

Despite marks being super important, do not tunnel vision on them where you put yourself in bad situations to get them.

Kindred can solo objectives pretty easily. Make sure you have priority in nearby lanes before attempting to take it alone.

It’s better to use your Ultimate Lamb's RespiteR preemptively rather than not at all. Use it just before you or your allies are at threat of dying.
