Evelynn vs Kindred

Updated Jun 4, 2026

Overview

Evelynn must survive early jungle pressure and avoid risky invades before level 6 to reach her stealth power spike.
Focus on clean full clears and avoid low-health river paths to reduce vulnerability against Kindred's early contest and skirmishes.

Jungle Plan

Opt for full clears and track Kindred's path to counter-gank their early river pressure effectively.
Contest Scuttle only when your lanes have priority and you can safely secure vision control.
After level 6, use camouflage to cross-map and punish pushed or isolated lanes, leveraging stealth for picks before objectives.

Danger windows

Early jungle clears with low health expose Evelynn to Kindred's strong dueling and invade potential.
Isolated river fights before level 6 are high risk due to Kindred's ranged damage and mobility.
Forced smite fights on dragon or marks without lane priority increase Evelynn's risk of losing objectives or dying.

Early game

Prioritize a full clear to hit level 6 safely before contesting river or marks to avoid Kindred's early dueling strength.
Avoid fighting Kindred for first Scuttle unless nearby lanes have priority and can assist.
Use control wards and sweepers to secure safer post-6 flank routes rather than direct early invades.

Power spikes

Evelynn's level 6 stealth and charm (W) unlock high gank threat; use this to create picks and pressure objectives.
Kindred's early marks and ranged dueling (Q) and execute (E) make early fights dangerous; respect these before level 6.
Kindred's ultimate (R) resets extended fights; avoid prolonged skirmishes without vision and backup.

Win conditions

Survive early pressure and reach level 6 to unlock stealth ganks that create picks and force objectives.
Use vision control to safely counter-jungle and deny Kindred's marks, slowing their scaling.
Leverage post-6 stealth to flank in teamfights and secure objectives with pick pressure and burst damage.
