Playing against Kindred

How to counter and exploit weaknesses

1

Kindred's marks are visible: defend marked camps to prevent them from stacking.

2

Their R prevents dying in the zone but heals afterwards — either stay and burst after the heal, or leave the zone.

3

Kindred is fragile in early game and depends on stacks — invade their jungle and contest marks.

4

The R also protects ENEMIES: use this to your advantage by entering the zone if you're low.
