Playing against Kindred
How to counter and exploit weaknesses
Kindred's marks are visible: defend marked camps to prevent them from stacking.
Their R prevents dying in the zone but heals afterwards — either stay and burst after the heal, or leave the zone.
Kindred is fragile in early game and depends on stacks — invade their jungle and contest marks.
The R also protects ENEMIES: use this to your advantage by entering the zone if you're low.
