Kindred is so squishy especially in the early game. If your enemy has heavy ad, rush Sterak's Gage (Grants a strong shield +10 AD). If strong AP, rush Hexdrinker (Bonus Shield + extra damage from Serrated Dirk).
When ganking:
- It's better to Gank if you're behind the enemy. E>W>Q and always stay in the backline. You don't want to receive all the damage since you are a ranged jungler that doesn't have MR/Armor modifiers (Unlike Graves, he has his E that gives bonus defensive stats)
When invading:
- If you're gonna invade the enemy jungler, make sure you have all three skills. Do not invade assassin junglers in the early game. You can invade in the midgame tho since you have enough items to survive a skirmish
Teamfights
- Like an AD Carry, Stay in the backline. Time your ult well. Here's a tip: If the enemy team has used all of their offense, use your Ult near your allies to re-engage in the fight, allowing your team to win the fight.
Suggested Items (Patch 6.10)
- Bloodrazor (Very helpful against tanks)
- Armor Pen Items (I like building Black Cleaver on Kindred. I know some people won't agree with me, but it's good. I also build cleaver on most Bloodrazor champs)
- Heavy sustain items
- Attack Speed (Runaan's is great for team fights, Phantom Dancer is good for Skirmishing)
