Statistical Matchup Analysis

With 3.0% popularity, Kindred constantly encounters meta-dominant Trundle (8.4%, 3rd place out of 54 Jungle champions). Understanding how to play against this popular champion becomes essential for consistent Kindred performance in the current patch. Every edge matters: In this tough matchup, the proven Press the Attack + Triumph combination (75.4% win rate) plus optimal itemization Trinity Force, The Collector, Infinity Edge, and Plated Steelcaps boosts your chances from 46.8% to 61.0% - potentially game-changing.

Farm your way back: Kindred's superior farming (6.43 vs 5.52/min, 19th among Jungle) offers a comeback path. Focus on safe CSing and capitalize on your 0.91 CS/min natural advantage. Damage doesn't equal wins: Kindred outputs more damage (847 vs 546/min, 2nd place) but still loses the matchup. The issue likely lies in survivability, mobility, or damage timing rather than raw output. Complete dominance by Trundle: leads in both matchup win rate (53.2%) and KDA (2.90 vs 2.30, 6th vs 51st place). Kindred players need exceptional preparation to overcome this counter-pick.

How to Beat Trundle as Kindred (Jungle)

Difficult matchup requiring deep understanding of game mechanics and flawless execution. Patience and proper macro play are the keys to victory in this confrontation.

Except for rare builds, Kindred deals physical damage. Focus on eliminating enemy carries. Trundle deals mainly physical damage (79.63%), additional items against this damage type may be required against snowballing or aggressive play.

An important advantage of Kindred is higher farming statistics (ranked 19th among role champions) (versus 39th for Trundle), which provides a stable gold advantage in extended games and allows faster access to key items. Meanwhile, their higher KDA (2.9 versus 2.3) suggests they participate more effectively in team fights.

Key aspects of the Kindred Jungle versus Trundle Jungle matchup

In this difficult confrontation, it is critically important for the Kindred player to avoid attempts to force trades and all-ins with the Trundle player, as the matchup requires a patient and calculated approach. Extended trades without clear tactical advantage often lead to unfavorable consequences, and ignoring opportunities to receive team support can be a fatal mistake for game progression.

Kindred tips:

  • Moving around between attacks while jungling will help you avoid damage and also generate more heals from Wolf's Frenzy.
  • Pick which Hunts you want to pursue carefully; getting many of them is the key to success as the game goes on.
  • Don't go in first to a large team fight. Wait for your teammates to initiate.

Playing Against Trundle

  • Trundle is very powerful at location-based combat. Try to draw him off of his Frozen Domain.
  • Make sure to get out of his Pillar of Ice as quickly as possible, as it significantly slows you down.
