AMA with Kuro - "I didn't always lose to Faker, and I beat him several times this year T_T"

Greetings, gamers! This is Inven Global.


With the fervor for the LCK Summer mounting up as the Playoffs are on, Inven Global has prepared an event for League fans: an AMA with a top League of Legends pro gamer! Inven Global is holding an AMA with a top LoL pro gamer so that League fans can have a chance to directly communicate with them.


The 2nd pro gamer we have invited for our AMA, and the first one to join in the AMA for LoL, is Kuro from Afreeca Freecs!


Kuro is a top-tier mid laner who has been playing in LCK for several years, and was placed 2nd with his team, ROX Tigers, in League of Legends World Championship 2015. He transferred to Afreeca Freecs in 2017, and played as a key player in the Spring and Summer Seasons. He was also the 5th person to score 1000 kills in June, according to LCK records.


We will be holding a live AMA for 2 hours via our comment section at the bottom of this article, starting from August 17th, 19:00 PDT (August 18th, 11:00 KST). Kuro will be reading all your questions from the comment section, and he will personally answer them, so feel free to ask all you want! Anything is okay- from Kuro’s gameplay to personal questions regarding his hobbies!


Of course, Kuro will be answering your questions not only during the live AMA time, but starting from now on, so feel free to leave questions in the comments below.

 


Also, we will be giving a prepaid 1350 RP card to 10 randomly selected people who participate in the AMA event.


We hope for your participation and support! Thank you!

 


※ The AMA with Kuro is for people from all around the world, and the answers will be given to him in English. We would appreciate it if you would leave comments in English via Google Translator for those who would like to read them. (Kuro 선수와의 AMA는 전세계의 유저를 대상으로 진행 중이라 영어로 답변을 드릴 예정입니다. 구글 번역기 등을 활용하여 가급적 영어로 질문을 남겨주시면 이를 확인하는 많은 분들에게 큰 도움이 될 것으로 예상됩니다.)

      @Nexen

      Faker, because I tend to learn a lot from him whenever I play against him as he is so great and famous.

    Kuro, you are widely accredited for being the one to bring Viktor into competitive play in the MidLane. As the originator of the pick, what do you think Viktor needs in order to come back into the meta?
    • 0

      level 1 Kuro

      @Tian_Zhang First, the price of the Prototype Hex Core needs to be reduced, and Viktor needs to get a mobility skill.

    hi kuro i have 3 questions :

    why are you always losing to faker, why can't you beat him?

    and why do you play so safely, i feel like you play really safe compared to some other mid laner in lck?!

    And my last question is Which team will win lck summer split this year ? (I think it's gonna be skt or kt)

    I wish you a good luck for next year man and keep it up ????????

    • 0

      level 1 Kuro

      @yanio

      I didn't always lose to Faker, and I beat him several times this year T_T

      And I don't think I played much different compared to other mid laners in LCK...

      I think SKT will win in this LCK Summer Split as well... And thank you for your support! ;)

      1st Tier in laning phase, but I don't think mid Lucian is that great in team fights. And I won't reveal the counter picks for Lucian.

    Do you think the Korean dominance in the LOL scene is good for the audience & the competitive state of the game?

    • 0

      level 1 Kuro

      @Jennifer_Ang

      I don't think the Korean dominance in the LoL scene is that great for the audience and the competitive state of the game because I think teams from other nations getting to win as well would cause more interest in the audience.

    What has been the hardest part about transitioning between the teams over the years (IM -> NBS -> ROX -> AFS)? What is it like playing with your new teammates this past year?

    • 0

      level 1 Kuro

      @Khobiwan I found it hard that I have to part with my old teammates and play with new ones- I found it hard to adapt to the new environment. And it's not bad playing my new teammates so far, but I think we can do much better if we take time to work on our team work :)
