Been playing Kindred since PBE, and have settled on a go-to build for them. It is as follows:

Beserker Greaves

Stalkers's Blade/Warrior Enchant

Youmou's Ghostblade

Black Cleaver

Blade of the Ruined King

Guardian Angel

Seems pretty standard but I mention it because I've been seeing a lot of Kindred players going Devourer, and almost always falling behind or failing because of it. I also see Runaan's and IE and Stattik brought up or used when referencing builds, and I don't think they work quite as well as the list mentioned here. Kindred has awful ratios, this we know, and focusing on getting armor pen is the best way to get her damage onto the enemy. Both armor pen items are a good fit, and Black Cleaver on top of that for even more shredding is great. This build also gets her to 40% CDR, which isn't really a priority but is a nice little bonus, getting all her basic abilities ~8 seconds cooldown. I've had tons of success with it, and do think it might be close to the optimal build path for them.
