How to Use Kindred Counter Data
Everything on this page — who beats Kindred and who Kindred beats — is computed from live ranked matchup data for Jungle. The toughest lane opponents at the moment are Ivern, Rammus, Shaco: against them Kindred posts its lowest win rates in the current data set. The single strongest counter is Ivern, where Kindred wins just 38.5% of 192 recorded games. On the flip side, Kindred performs well into Volibear, Poppy, Ambessa, making them safer picks to face.
Each card shows the win rate from Kindred’s perspective and the number of games behind it — a matchup with tens of thousands of games is far more trustworthy than one with a few hundred. The Easy/Even/Hard labels are computed from those win rates (below 48% reads as Hard, above 52% as Easy); they are a reading aid, not a separate source stat. Data comes from ranked games at Emerald rank and above across all regions, currently on patch 16.13.1, and refreshes automatically every 48 hours, so the numbers move with the meta. Counters are only half the picture: check the current Kindred build for the strongest items and runes, or the Kindred champion page for abilities and full details.
