Champion Buff Proposal: Kindred

EdisonLaw

(Note: I don't have a Kindred of any rarity, but I know how he works)

Although this champ is somewhat new, it's safe to say that most of us agree he's underwhelming on offense, even in ideal matchups against buff heavy opponents. Now on defense, that's a different story as he's a great defense champ. To me, he feels like a weaker version of Mojo or Ebony Maw

The main problem with his damage is with his Atrophy passive. Sure it reduces buff duration by a lot, but it doesn't punish buffs. For example, Mojo. Whenever he has his anti life field active and whenever a buff expires, the opponent takes degen damage. Maybe they could implement the same thing for Kindred, or maybe whenever a buff expires against Kindred, the opponent takes a burst of energy damage.

This is really the only thing he's missing. Thoughts?

They haven't even announced whether or not kindred needs to be buffed and we won't know until December.

I’m predicting that he will at least get a tune up, kinda like Viv, Sandman, and Shocker

I was lucky enough to pull him as a 6* right away. I awakened him an dumped sigs into him an took him right to R4. Figured he would be a great defender in war defense an great for BGs too. Now i regret it. Kabam completely killed him being good for war defense with that dumb sugar pill tactic an decay, pretty much ruined all mystic defenders with it. An he has been extremely underwhelming in BGs. Hes always killed off quick an easy it seems. An as an attack champ hes terrible. Slow to get a kill. So im really hoping he gets buffed, or atleast some improvement.
