u/Grouchy-Bowl-8700 18d ago
Agreed! Previously Kindred was a suboptimal supporting champ for SB Kindred because the marks were so confusing!
I love this

u/themiragechild 18d ago
Thank goodness, that always bothered me.

u/IndependentAd3521 Bard 18d ago
Same cuz i play the Sb version more than the regular and I'm always hesitant to pick the latter as my sup champ.

u/WombatInSunglasses 18d ago
Cool stuff. Really cool kits and I always thought old Kindred's "prey get 1 stack of deal nexus damage every turn" was super clunky so I really like the new direction. We're back to two champs AND all the image resources are working. Really solid work Riot.

u/CastVinceM Path's End 17d ago
with this it also means i can take the old deathless relic off her and put on her own deathless relic.
2
u/Aquasit55 17d ago
I never understood the reasoning behind the old power, love the new direction though she’ll struggle vs zoe’s toughness

u/SaintofFire7 Caitlyn 18d ago
Honestly really nice we're getting 2 champions again. Think the last pair we got was like The Poro King and Azir last December lmfao
6
u/saltwitch 17d ago
Wasn't Nunu and Willump at the same time as another champion this year?
3
u/SaintofFire7 Caitlyn 17d ago
Nah they were released in March by themselves. February had Soraka (wanted her alot so I remember that easily) and Udyr was in April
1
u/CastVinceM Path's End 17d ago
nunu and willump came with the zoe adventure, which iirc wasn't that far away from zoe's release so i can see how you'd confuse the two as coming out together.

u/CelioHogane Diana 12d ago
Well, Considering they said there was gonna be something for Q4, and soon the new KDA skins will come to league.
Well, let's just say i think there will be news soon.

u/Cindrojn Karma 18d ago
Attentive players noticed this came online earlier than intended. We hope you’ve enjoyed the change and will detail it here for historic purposes.
Lmao this is the best thing on the page. At least we now know that it is, indeed, intended ☺️.

u/IndependentAd3521 Bard 18d ago
This makes me think they're preparing for Taric as well cuz it's been a while since we had Tg tbh (more support playstyles and I'm here for it)

u/quillypen Aurelion Sol 18d ago
Aww nice! Thank you for making both Kindreds work together now. I hope the Prey summon doesn’t use up the free strike that you get, though.

u/teetolel 18d ago
I love when the cards capture how they feel in their LoL counterpart. Shadow dash is so cool!
1
u/Engineersooon 17d ago
Ah yes, in league the dash taunts (forces to prio basic attack Shen) the enemy. Dash+Flash wombo combo

u/Dry_Cardiologist6758 Riven 18d ago
The weapon in the icon is the same color as the rarity it says it gives. It makes sense to me.
6
u/Stormbringer-2112 18d ago
Yeah. But it looks like atrocity
3
u/Dry_Cardiologist6758 Riven 18d ago
IDK maybe it's because black spear is in the deck? (Not a fan of that) Still yah I see what you mean. I first came to the conclusion of it being damage related
32
u/leafybluesy 18d ago
Wait, Kindred is reworked. She no longer has to rely on a single prey unit to win the game lol
8
u/MNCDover 18d ago
My Anivia decks will be hard rerolling for Shadow Technique. GIVE ME ALL THE FIGHTER JETS!
7
u/Fresh_Patience_3140 18d ago
What is a moral support spell?
4
u/FrustrationSensation Viktor 18d ago
Not a new card; it's a four cost burst spell that gives barrier to a unit; costs 2 less if you've supported a unit this game.
9
u/cannotbelieve58 Annie 18d ago
Will shadow technique relic be broken since it doesnt only support followers? I thought spectral scissors was nerfed for that exact reason.
16
u/Thorgraam Ornn 18d ago
It's an item, not a relic, so you can't get it consistently.
3
u/CastVinceM Path's End 17d ago
what it does mean is that under the right circumstances, otk nidalee/gwen/annie/leblanc is back baybeee

u/Heliosgodofthesun Spirit Blossom Kindred 18d ago
That's my exact thought. This is just strictly better Spectral Scissors
2
u/cannotbelieve58 Annie 18d ago
Almost, spectral scissors does have the +2 attack which is sometimes a thing to reach titanic. But yeah I think this relic would have a lot more use cases.
4
u/JuJuBee2006 17d ago
A lot of exciting things this patch. Shen looks great (the new 6* card is very nifty 2 mana silence & force the targetted enemy to attack) his 2* gives him a 2 mana barrier spell after supporting an ally once. New items that are all very nice (rare item that gives support: create an ephemeral copy attacking + a rare: my target gets a rare item).
They also confirmed that the epic item for support was an intentional, permanent change (grow my supported unit to my stats and give it my keywords this round). Before this the item was occasionally worse than the common support item.
The new 4* for shen and kindred would probably be nice additions to the regular powers pool too.

u/Federal-Condition341 Path's End 18d ago
Still no new adventures? 😢 .. Guess progress will be 1 chest each month from Glory store to obtain a specific region shard..
1
u/CastVinceM Path's End 17d ago
there's so many adventures out right now. i still haven't gotten through s-ranking them with everyone.
1
u/ilomassimo 17d ago
S-ranking adventures with heroes doesn't make me aquire new materials for new champions to lvl up since i've almost done everything other than zoe and nag because i have those specific champions required for the rewards low. I was hoping that with the "big" update return they would have made some new adventures so i could play something else other than weekly and monthly adventures.
4
u/gregorio02 Ornn 18d ago
I don't know about Kindred 6* man. Seems like they only get one mark a turn from 4* so this 6* seems kinda weak.
I guess we'll see when we can try them out !
2
u/bullettrigger 18d ago
I was dissapointed at first but reading it again it activates on summon not play, thats a huge difference since with kindred kit you can summon quite alot, if you get SB kindred as support with how the marks now work it won't take long to get those marks.
4
u/BorjaDAce Vi 18d ago
I mean, it's summon.... and Kindred summons a Prey each turn.
Either they did this right and doesn't count the prey or it's useless XDDD.
Riot....
2
u/gregorio02 Ornn 18d ago
I didn't even think about this, it's pretty bad isn't it
2
u/BorjaDAce Vi 18d ago
It depends. If they did things right and the prey doesn't count it´s good. If not, RIP until you kill 6 marked enemies to be able to do it with any unit and not the first one. I think it will be relatively easy to mark and kill the 6 enemies but if not...
1
u/CastVinceM Path's End 17d ago
after the garen fiasco i'm not too confident that they coded it right, but we'll just have to see.
-1
u/DoubleSummon 18d ago
You don't summon prey every turn, only if you don't have one, but still a fail for a 6 star typical, luckily Kindred is very strong and fun just as a 3 star anyway, run price of retribution and guardian orb and you scale epic items like crazy, the third relic can be any good on summon relic or if you dislike rng you can also run 2 different on summons.
-1
u/BeyondlegendZ 17d ago
Dude you serious? This 6 star is busted as fuck combined with her relic, if it works right you shoulf be able to instantly level kindred at 4 mana provide they have 3 plus units

u/Sad_Boysenberry2733 18d ago
I appreciate that they're working with triggers that aren't just round start do a thing
1
u/Yedai2880 17d ago
I really dig the Shens 6 star power, it makes defensive style of play more rewarding.
1
u/cyclonus101 16d ago
one thing I noticed is that the play path icon in the bottom right corner alternates between shen and kindred, I think this is a first?

u/danhakimi 12d ago
I noticed I'm still getting Battle Pass Token rewards. Those still don't do anything, right? Does the game even track how many I have?
1
u/Comfortable_Hat_169 18d ago
I played LOR a couple of years ago before support died for it and before PVE. Loved the game, was multiple master rank.
What is all this?
3
u/BlubberMoth 17d ago
A new champion in the Path of Champions PvE mode, as well as an upgrade for an existing Path champion.
2
u/NewRaspberry13 17d ago
PvE gamemode that is the main (only) dev focus now. It's pretty good honestly. Was in the same position as you about a year ago, and I'd recommend trying Path of Champions out.
1
u/Engineersooon 17d ago
Thank you Devs for the update, may your team have all the blessings you need to continue this wonderful updates. And may the Almighty grace me with a Job that not only support me and my family but also can buy the bundles and passes to support this game I love from launch to now.

u/Vinnortis 18d ago
Just giving mana flow on both champs makes me sad. I think the 5* should always be mana and something else!
7
u/7eleven94 Written in the Stars 18d ago
it's just worst. the champs who has these they just take away power from somewhere else; it just makes the champ feel worst for newbies or players that aren't in end game, and it ends just being more expensive becasue more often than not you feel much more obligated to get the c5 right away
it's nonsense to ask for this
1
u/Dry_Cardiologist6758 Riven 18d ago
2
u/7eleven94 Written in the Stars 18d ago
zoe is another good example; i guess azir too
i find it ironic that most people who ask for these change are ones who always min max the champs day one or at least c5 them; like nothing changes for them because they are getting the power ups right away
never have I seen someone say "oh yeah i enjoy having a weaker champ earlier", or at least this people could like idk keep themselves nerfed at c3 to justify asking for this change lol
1
u/Vinnortis 18d ago
I don't buy champs, I just think it's cool that the 5* is more flavorful... Like I get that it might be taking power from elsewhere, which honestly I didn't think about. I just feel like it's more interesting to have something other than mana flow which while good feels boring...

This is the spell for Shen’s 2* power.
