Playing as Kindred

  • Moving around between attacks while jungling will help you avoid damage and also generate more heals from Wolf's Frenzy.
  • Pick which Hunts you want to pursue carefully; getting many of them is the key to success as the game goes on.
  • Don't go in first to a large team fight. Wait for your teammates to initiate.

Playing against Kindred

  • Kindred is fragile - turn the pressure up on her, and she will be forced to play cautiously.
  • Clear the Hunts Wolf activates on jungle camps to slow down Kindred's damage output.
  • When Kindred uses Lamb's Respite get inside, it stops all champions from dying.
