Kindred is banned in about 0.9% of games at this tier, one figure for the whole champion since bans happen before roles are picked. What ban rate measures.
Kindred's Jungle win rate is 1.0 percentage points below an even 50% — Should I Dodge's win-probability model varies by about 4.8 percentage points of standard deviation from lobby to lobby across all ranks, purely from which champions get drawn, so this gap is smaller than that noise, not solid evidence the champion is unusually strong or weak right now.
Kindred is tracked in exactly one role at this tier scope, Jungle — so there's no ambiguity below about which lane the rest of this page's per-tier, threat, and counters reporting describes.
Kindred's Jungle Build
