(in progress)
abuse evelyn the entire game kill her early and suppress her when possible
Yasuo
yasuo is cancer; hes very aggresive but you can use this to your advantage if you gank him early itll burn his flash putting him the postion to be ganked again and potentially killed in the process, however if hes in jg try to avoid him unless hes low on health
Blitzcrank
avoid his pulls; if you get pulled in a team fight dont ult try to get away or fight your way out of the situation
Vi
her cc and armor pen will shut you down quick you can win 1v1s with her however most of the time she will out do you, when you ult she can use her knockup at the last moment to kill you
Urgot
urgots ult can suppress you while you ult and move you out of it at the last moment however he is very immobile and you can probably kill him in most situations
Xin Zhao
he is your ultimate enemy his cc will kill you every time and hes a hyper carry you can shut him down early if you find him in the jg low but its very risky to invade, you can probably invade him successful with the right team but again invading is risky
Master Yi
you can win some 1v1s with him but if you invade early and he uses his heal just walk away cause you wont kill him unless hes one hit away lol, his q can shut you down at the last moment of your ult but you cant out run him if you ult near a wall jump over the wall and ghost out
Zac
you can kill him early but dont try and kill his droplets under turret youll die, he can be pretty annoying with his ult so be careful not to get to close to him in team fights
Warwick
his lifesteal will out do you in 1v1s hes not that hard to deal with in team fights, you can counter gank him if you catch the ganking in progress early on
Kindred
its you lol; your lethality and attack speed will out do other kins always
Fiddlesticks
dont 1v1 him and avoid him when ganking; your very squishy and he will kill you; he will fear you then spellvamp off of you, if you can try walking away from him to cancel his spellvamp. however you can outrage his ult in team fights and kill him
Ivern
you can counter jg him very well and counter gank him very well invade him when possible kite daisy if you need to, i think your w does extra damage to daisy as well im not certain though
Darius
dont let him pull you you can kill just kite him and avoid his ult at all costs; ult if you see him ulting itll save then you can q him or get away from him with ghost
Brand
you can kill very easily avoid taking any damage from him try to outrange him and dont 1v1 him unless you know you can kill him
Amumu
you can kill him early hes very weak early on. your ult can counter his but it can work both ways his might out do yours if he times it right
Aatrox
his double ga might outdo you
Udyr
can easily invade you
Olaf
you can mess him up pretty good pre-lvl 6 after that watch out for his ult; try kiting him a bit post-6
Akali
you can't outrun her or out do her in most situations even if you ult she can use her camouflage on it to either get away, kill you afterwards or jump onto to you when you try getting away. However if she's the jungler invade her she sucks at farming jungle creeps and will most likely be low enough for you to kill her
Ekko
He's really OP but you can actually counter him if you know hes gonna ult and hes at 10% health ult it'll cancel the the healing from his ult and spawn him outside of the circle allowing him to be killed easily; use this information wisely think about what your doing this can be a tricky play. use your q to dodge his skill shot, dash and his stun(q w q); after he's used all of his abilities go in on him (e w q aa q aa). just remember that hes pretty OP especially when he's finished more then a couple of items. check this out

Katarina
She tends to roam allot make sure to ward the river bushes cause she might try killing you when your just getting scuddle mark; shes really op so you're not gonna do so well if she does this, make sure to pay attention to the mid lane and walk through and ward bushes. if she ults and you and your team mates are dying you're gonna want to ult right but she may still kill you and your teammates afterwards by using her dashes and her throwing blades depending on her skill level; I would suggest trying to attack her while she ults you have allot range on kindred so stand outside of the area of her ult and attack her, if you can ult your team mates who are dying while this is happening without risky ulting her in the process then do so,
she can jump inside and outside of your ult keep that in mind.
LeBlanc
your ult can make her and her clone invulnerable, she can jump inside of your ult
Veigar
He's OP; he can one-shot you with any of his abilities, his stun will prevent you from ulting or escaping so trying avoiding him in team fights and when you gank him avoid his stun and q away from his moves
Alistar
kindred generally shreds tanks especially later on in the game but alistar has the ability to push you or a team mate out of you ult
Heimerdinger
He's really hard to gank if you try gank him his turrets will burst you down immediately resulting in you dying or having to leave the lane before you could even do anything. your ult makes his turrets invulnerable he can just ult a turret inside of your ult and kill you after it expires, you can try getting away but he will most likely either stun you and/or rocket you when you do besides that he's actually kinda squishy so you could probably kill him if you avoid all that
Ahri
she can charm you outside of your ult if you close the edge of it and burst you down, she can dash inside of your ult
Anivia
her ult lasts really long she can ult your ult stun you and kill you afterwards
Azir
he can push you and your teammates outside of your ult
Ashe
besides her slows and her stun you can her really easily
Annie
tibbers is pretty op
Kled
your ult can help him get skarl so be careful
Ornn
Ornn kinda sucks and kindred shreds tanks. if hes the jungler your gonna want to abuse him your gonna be able to win 1v1 with him always; early, mid, late game your just rekt this guy, easy pickings kek
Gragas
he can kick you and your teammates out of your ult but you can kill him fairly easy in 1v1s
Xerath
your ult can counter his ult; ult you and your teammates. you can dodge his ult as well as most of his moves with your q but be careful xerath can do allot of damage when you fight him
Lux
lux annoys me but you do counter her cause of your ult; if you see her ulting you or your teammates use your ult. she can put that light ball thing on your ult just move away from it q away from it if you have to. always you use your q to dodge her stun when you see it; you can also dodge her ult with your q but its hard to pull off.
Malphite
his ult can be kinda of annoying and even prevent you from ulting
Shaco
you kinda go even with him, if you try to 1v1 him he might get away with his invisibility and his dolls will prevent you from chasing him when hes almost dead.
Bard
"pop the balloon" bard can ult your ult in teamfights but that might be good or bad thing depending on the situation; probably bad though... you can kill him when he roams he's not that tough; try dodging his q with yours.
Aurelion Sol
i rarely see aurelion sol. you can gank him pretty good, 1v1's can go either way; its hard to dodge his skillshot with your q since it has a large hitbox
Kayle
she can ult inside your ult at the last moment to make her invulnerable for a total of 6.5 seconds; try to wait for her to use her ult in teamfights before you use yours. 1v1s can go either way but she is very strong especially when shes ahead, try ganking her shes weak pre-lvl 6.
Nocturne
he will win most 1v1's, if your ahead he can target you very easily with his ult.
Diana
1v1's can go either way. her knockback can prevent you from escaping your ult.
Caitlyn
cait is kinda weak solo try picking her off when you can, your ult can counter hers
Braum
he's a good support; his shield with block your offense try jumping forward sideways (<^Q) so that you can avoid attacking his shield
Camille
you can't 1v1 her unless your ahead, she isnt as much of a problem in team fights but she might try picking you off with her ult which you can then ult when your in danger depending on your position
Cassiopeia
shes really strong she can freeze you then burst you down; if your gonna fight her you might want to ult before she attacks
Cho'Gath
you can 1v1 him easily epecially pre-6 when he has no stacks, your ult can cancel his nomnomnom and a domiks regards will make him pretty squishy
Corki
he can actually push you out of your ult and burst you down whether if you have it or not
Dr. Mundo
you can 1v1 him easily pre-6
Draven
1v1s can either way except when he's ahead; he's really op when hes ahead try ganking so he doesnt get ahead, your ult can counter his
Elise
you can win some 1v1s with elise but most of the time she'll smash you like a bug, not as hard to deal with in teamfights.
Ezreal
you can dodge his skillshots with q and your ult will counter his
Fiora
a skilled fiora can 1v5 but besides that she is not that hard to kill
Fizz
i hate fizz. your ult will counter his but he'll probably kill you anyway with all of his dashes
Pantheon
you can 1v1 him pre-6, if you see ult on top of you either try Qing out of it or ulting before he arrives; it will do allot of damage and he'll kill shorlty after
Galio
galio is not that strong alone but in teamfights he can be hard to deal with
Garen
he will win 1v1s and pick you off in teamfights, his silence can prevent you from ulting. you can gank him easilly he will try Qing away but your ghost should be faster
Gangplank
you can gank him pretty well. he can ult you after your ult expires
anti vanguard: you rekt garen with this build the movement speed from phantom dancer helps kite him, the armor pen makes him squishy, the mercs reduces his silence allowing you to ult if you need to counter his ult and the rapid fire cannon helps you keep distance from him
Sejuani
anti vanguard: try dodging her stuns with your q if she gets close
Ghost might seem like an odd pick for kin but it is very effective even more effective then flash at times, you can ult and ghost then q w q to jump over walls and escape when in trouble. ghost is also very effective for ganking you ghost in into a lane e q w auto x3 then q again.
If you plan on invading after your buff you can use ghost to chase them in their jg to get a kill
if your split pushing late game you can ghost q w q to get away when the team notices; ghost isnt as effective in lane since there is as much walls but i would recommend taking ghost and flash if your going midlane
Ghost can be more effective to get away cause it has a long duration with low cd
Playing safe
Playing safe
Marks are a permanent buff to your basic abilities; they make you stronger yes but they aren't worth dying for, only go for marks when you know you can get them without dying, if you know the jungler or midlaner counter you then dont risk dying for the marks just farm in your own jungle and play safe; always ward your own jungle when a jungler counters you they'll likely invade you since your very weak early on, if you need to gank try warding the bush you pass through so that you know if the enemy jungle is going for a counter gank.
Your position in teamfights is always in the back never infront if you have 8 or more marks you can do this very effectively even to the point that your behind the adc while still participating in the fight, if you get caught out somehow in a team fight then you q ghost away let your team mates takeover you dont want to take any damage; remember ghost allows you to pass through units you can use this to pass through your allies, minions and even the enemy just use it wisely and you'll get away.
The Q can act as a flash to a degree you can use it offensively or defensively; Q allows you to jump over small walls, monsters, the enemy, your allies and even turrets; if your taking over a lane while your laner is away and you get bursted down and want to get away ghost ult if you have to and q over the turret walk to the next turret then B, you can also do this in team fights where you're defending the turret. If you're invading and get caught ghost and try to pop the blast cone to get over the pit if it is not there then run up to the wall of the pit and q over; this might fail or even activate the baron or dragon on the pit depending on the position of your cursor; I would suggest trying this in the practice tool as well as practicing Q'ing over other walls.
Ganks
Ganks
Be careful of who you gank and how you gank; kindred is a very squishy jungler dont gank a lane that you know counters you unless you know you can pull it off, you can either use your ghost to gank a lane or use it to get away after an unsuccessful attempt, mostly I use it offensively when I gank since kindred lacks cc ghosting can make up for that; if an enemy is pushing up on your ally gank them with ghost and kite infront of them while they run away (e w q aa q aa); Q backwards not forwards it'll still pop off if they are running in your direction.
Dont gank a fed lane unless your even more fed then that laner; if a laner is fed dont solo gank that lane ask your mid laner to gank or your top to tp gank with you so that way its more and likely to shut down the fed laner
Lambs Respite
Lambs Respite
with kindred ultimate you always have to be careful it can either make things really bad for you or it can make things really bad for the enemy; you always wanna try to ult your teammates instead of the enemy so try to stay behind someones back in a teamfight; never be selfish with your ult if your ally is about to die ult them this can save ally but also save you in the process in a teamfight a numbers advantage will always count if your fighting a 4v5 you will always have a disadvantage. IN 1V1'S Get your enemy to 10% health and save your e third strike for the last moment of lambs respite, you can also use Q at the last moment for an escicution but this has been somewhat uneffective since the rework but it worth a try if you dont got your e up.
