Hey! No worries for the questions I don't mind answering them at all.

All three trees have pros that use them on Kindred (FoB, TL, SotA). Korean pro, Longzhu Crash (arguably one of the best junglers in the world), almost always takes SotA. FoB is popular amongnst NA players I think mostly because of the NA Ego, as everyone wants to be the carry. Stastically, SotA is also the best choice with more than a 3% higher win rate. As guides are meant to help new players and assure victory I wanted to add in the easiest of the three to use, however all three are possible and very occasionally I will switch them (say I have an extremely tanky team and not a lot of DPS then I will go FoB). As for TF it's still a good pick and a lot of the Korean pro's still use it, however I am running test now to see the difference between builds, (I am strongly considering going Runaan's into a black cleaver). Itemazation changes almost every single patch and I haven't completely updated it for this patch yet but I will today so stay tuned :) also I would never take BT over angel unless I was significantly far ahead and had almost no possibility of losing and just wanted to end the game faster. SG just isn't worth it to me no matter the situation. LD is a great item but like I said i might be switching it up later today. Let me know if you have anymore quetisons :)

Thank you so much :) I really appreciate it! The fact that you played kindred mid successfully is actually really impressive! Stay tuned as I update and make new guides and I hope you enjoy them as much as you liked this one :)

Kiting is probably one of the most misunderstood and poorly executed Mechanic in the game. I actually coach quite a lot of people on how to do it properly for a good amount of time before they have it completely down. It's not too difficult as kindred because you have slows/hops, however, it's still comes down to your basic orb walking and using abilities between auto attacks. Some General tips I can give you are learning to use attack to click move and orb walking in general. The greater your attack speed the faster you have to orb walk. If I saw you do it live I could help you more, but without that it's difficult for me to give you an exact answer on what and how you specifically need to improve on.

No problem :) and ofc dude was hella fun, and we're always available for you so just stop by whenever you want to come back :) I hope I taught you a thing or two about Kindred in the process!

Not really, They are very different items made for very different things. Gage isn't going to stop you from dying as much as GA will. Another thing about SG is that it provides only health and no defenses, other than the shield (but that's really just like more HP, a lot of times with SG and kindred people will use their ult when their shield goes off and waste the shield. On top of that, SG doesn't stack with Maw if you build them together anymore. Those are just some of the reasons I kept the item off of my build.

Thanks a ton friend :) I'll finish the guide soon I promise! This is a really busy week with school/work, but when I have some spare free time I will definitely finish it for everyone :)
And once I finish I will be writing more so stay tuned! And thanks a ton for the graphics I mentioned you in my Thank you section :)

Have u ever played kindred u scrub? how is dead mans plate not good for kindred, when u get most of kindred's kills from chasing people down, what if it actually improves your game play?
Why u gotta be jealous about people rank? u act like u know all the challengers that ever existed in LOL and Riot sends you an email when new people become challengers. Your probably jus hating on this guy cause he got to challenger and your still in D2. gosh man get a life and just try this guys guide out to see for yourself if it works before you sit here and try to bring someone else down.
for all we know your prob afraid of this guys guide cause u made one, and your scurred that this guys guide will drive people away from yours. why else would u try so hard to hate on someone?

I dont really understand how you can compare Duolegends with a regular eloboosting service tbh.. As far as I know is the point of elo boosting that you just get boosted and have not enough skill yourself to play in there. But wit Duolegends its the idea that you gonna duoQ with a high elo player and he is going to give a lot of good tips and with the premium version they even record it and watch all small points back.. I for example learned like that a lot of things about jungle and things I did wrong, that I never knew.

I'm sorry you feel that way. The vast majority of time I spent writing the actual content (gameplay) of the guide :) And about my rank on this account two seasons ago this was a smurf of mine. I actually have another account on Mobafire "ZulaWarrior" that you can see has Diamond 1 Rank before Master Tier was even created (and master tier this season), also the majority of my games in challenger are solo, some people are always skeptical about challengers' rank even when I log in and win a challenger game right in front of their eyes (we're not celebrities we're just normal people who try to do well in league of legends).

Black cleaver isn't the better item because it provides you zero armor, and less health. The point of this build is to be tanky while still doing an immense amount of damage, Black cleaver just doesn't provide enough tankiness. If I were making this a build to be like the rest of the Kindred build's that are very squishy then yes I would build a black cleaver, but 300 HP with zero defenses isn't what I (nor anyone else) would consider tanky.
And apologies for all the coming soons, its a work in progress, I plan on finishing this weekend. I actually have most the content written just need to format it still. Let me know if you have any more questions about build/rank/site I can help ya out :)
