Kindred
Champions that beat Kindred
- Amumujungle
Bandage Toss (Q) stun lands during the Mounting Dread (E) windup, cancelling the 4th-attack execute. Curse of the Sad Mummy (R) AOE wipes her Lamb's Respite (R) zone before she stacks Mark of the Kindred.
- Amumusupport
Bandage Toss (Q) from a tri-bush ward catches Kindred isolated near Scuttle. Curse of the Sad Mummy (R) then wipes the Lamb's Respite (R) save zone before she can stack a Mark of the Kindred on your ADC or jungler.
- Bel'Vethjungle
Dance of Arrows (Q) is a short hop, not a real dash. Void Surge (Q) four-directional kit closes the gap before Kindred can stack Mark of the Kindred. Royal Maelstrom (E) auto-pilot wins the 1v1 inside Lamb's Respite (R) zone.
- Dr Mundojungle
Goes Where He Pleases (P) reduces every Kindred auto by a flat amount per second, and Maximum Dosage (R) HP regen out-heals Mounting Dread (E) chain damage. Infected Bonesaw (Q) slow is point-and-click — Kindred cannot kite once Mundo commits.
- Elisejungle
Cocoon (E) human form stuns Kindred from 1100 range during Dance of Arrows (Q) dash recovery, and Rappel (E) spider form repositions out of stacked-range autos. Spider Queen (P) spiderlings shred her before Mark of the Kindred (P) scaling activates.
- Gragasjungle
Body Slam (E) stun breaks the Dance of Arrows (Q) reposition pattern, and Wolf's Frenzy (W) bonus attack speed is wasted when Drunken Rage (W) absorbs the burst. Lamb's Respite (R) zone is countered by Explosive Cask (R) knockback flipping enemies out.
- Kha'Zixjungle
Kindred kites in Dance of Arrows (Q) and Lamb's Respite (R) is the only save — Taste Their Fear (Q) bursts her between Q dashes when isolated 425+ from a Mark of the Kindred (P) stack target. Mounting Dread (E) stun needs 3 stacks Kha'Zix never lets ramp.
- Lee Sinjungle
Sonic Wave (Q) plus Resonating Strike (Q2) plus Safeguard (W) reset chain invades Kindred's level-2 camps and kills her before she stacks a single Mark. Dragon's Rage (R) kicks her out of Lamb's Respite (R) zone and Tempest (E) cripple chases her down.
- Qiyanajungle
Kindred's lamb form has only Lamb's Respite R as a panic button — bait it pre-fight and her survival window collapses. Qiyana's Supreme Display of Talent R wall-stun cancels Dance of Arrows triple-dash repositioning,
- Rengarjungle
Kindred's Dance of Arrows is a short triple-hop that Rengar out-bursts from a brush leap before Lamb's Respite R can fire to save her. Mounting Dread slow does not stop Unseen Predator's leap speed,
- Shacojungle
Mounting Dread (E) stacks for ramping damage but does no CC, and Wolf's Frenzy (W) puts Kindred in melee proximity. Deceive (Q) flanks during the W proximity zone and Lamb's Respite (R) zero-HP zone is countered by Hallucinate (R) clone tanking the channel duration.
- Siontop
Soul Furnace (W) shield absorbs Mounting Dread (E) 4-auto chain damage, and Glory in Death (P) zombie state lets Sion fight Kindred after death. Decimating Smash (Q) charge stuns Kindred during Dance of Arrows (Q) recovery, and Unstoppable Onslaught (R) ganks her cross-map.
- Twitchjungle
Kindred's Mounting Dread E mark needs three autos to detonate and Wolf's Frenzy W AOE damage tickers slow. Twitch ambushes her power-farm position with Ambush Q stealth, 6-stack Contaminate E executes her before Lamb's Respite R can fire,
- Viegojungle
Viego closes the gap with Harrowed Path (E) camouflage plus Spectral Maw (W) stun, and once he is in melee Kindred has no peel because Wolf's Frenzy (W) needs auto-attack range to proc. Blade of the Ruined King (Q) execute breaks Lamb's Respite (R) zone HP cap fast.
- Xin Zhaojungle
Audacious Charge (E) plus Three Talon Strike (Q) knockup chain invades Kindred's camps at level 2-3 and kills her before Mark stacks ramp. Crescent Guard (R) isolates her from team peel, and Wind Becomes Lightning (W) slow holds her through Dance of Arrows (Q) escapes.
Champions Kindred beats
- Apheliosbot
Aphelios has no built-in dash — Mounting Dread (E) cross-map gank lands the slow for Kindred to chain 4 autos through any weapon rotation. Moonlight Vigil (R) cone is dodged by Dance of Arrows (Q), and Phase (W) weapon swap cannot break the missing-HP execute.
- Fiddlesticksjungle
Mounting Dread (E) mark hunts Fiddlesticks in fog setup ambushes. Lamb's Respite (R) stasis interrupts Crowstorm (R) AOE damage ticks, and ranged kite plus Dance of Arrows (Q) paths around the fog where Terrify (Q) needs to land.
- Gwenjungle
Auto-attacks from outside Hallowed Mist (W) protection range, and Lamb's Respite (R) zone denies the burst window during a 1v1. Gwen has to commit Skip 'n Slash (E) to enter range and Kindred kites the dash with Dance of Arrows (Q) repositioning.
- Karthusjungle
Karthus wants to farm to 3 items before doing anything — Kindred mark-hunts his jungle and bullies his level-2 camps. Dance of Arrows (Q) kites the Defile (E) aura range, and Mounting Dread (E) 4-auto chain executes him before Requiem (R) channels cross-map.
- Kayletop
Kayle needs levels 11 and 16 to come online — Kindred mark-hunts her jungle and bullies camps before she scales. Dance of Arrows (Q) plus stacked Mark range out-trade her ranged form, and Lamb's Respite (R) blocks Divine Judgment (R) execute attempts.
- Lilliajungle
Kindred beats Lillia at scuttle with auto-attack range while Lillia has to walk into Blooming Blows (Q) hitbox. Losing scuttle twice in a row collapses her river vision and roam timing, and Mounting Dread (E) plus Hail of Blades 4-auto chain executes her below 50%.
- Master Yijungle
Master Yi wants 3 items before he activates — Kindred mark-hunts his jungle and chunks him at level 2. Mounting Dread (E) slow holds him during Meditate (W) channel, and Wolf's Frenzy (W) plus auto chain shreds him before Highlander (R) speed kicks in.
- Olafjungle
Kindred's Dance of Arrows triple-dash kites Olaf during every approach, and Mounting Dread slow chains with Wolf's Frenzy ranged autos to chip him at full HP. Lamb's Respite zones his Reckless Swing finishing window,
- Sennasupport
Senna's Absolution (P) stacks slowly and Piercing Darkness (Q) heals through allies — Mounting Dread (E) cross-map gank lands a slow long enough for Kindred to chain 4 autos. Curse of the Black Mist (E) camouflage cannot hide her from stacked-range Kindred.
- Udyrjungle
Kindred's Dance of Arrows Q dashes outside Udyr's 125 melee Q range and Wolf's Frenzy W AOE damage chips him without entering melee. Mark of the Kindred passive scaling stacks ramp ranged DPS late-game, Mounting Dread E mark detonates burst,
- Warwickjungle
Kindred Dance of Arrows (Q) and Wolf's Frenzy (W) poke Warwick from outside Jaws of the Beast (Q) 365 range while she kites Blood Hunt (W) speed boost. Lamb's Respite (R) HP-floor zone breaks Infinite Duress (R) burst and Mark of the Kindred passive scales her range.
