Greetings, gamers! This is Inven Global.


With the Spring Split for several League of Legends tournaments coming to an end all around the world, the MSI is approaching; the champions from each region will gather and compete for the pride of their region. Being the first world event of 2018, fans and players are growing impatient and excited. To help ramp up the hype, we decided to hold another event for League fans - a live AMA with world-famous League players! We invited Rush, the jungler for KT Rolster, who successfully made his debut in the 2018 LCK :)

 


Rush made his first debut in the pro scene in the 2015 NA LCS Spring; he was a popular jungler among NA League fans, playing for Cloud9 while also streaming online. He proved himself when he placed 1st on the Korean ranked ladder, which some say is only achievable by the very top pro gamers in the LCK, and had the opportunity to play on the LCK stage as he transferred to the KT Rolster in 2017.


It seemed Rush had truly integrated into KT Rolster and their macro-management as he had shown his part as an experienced and skilled jungler rather than just displaying only exceptional mechanics. Notably, what he had shown with his Lee Sin, his signature pick, had indeed left an impression in the hearts of the viewers. All League fans are looking forward to his bigger achievements in the upcoming Summer Split!

 



■ How to Participate the Event



The live AMA with Rush will start from April 19th 10:00 PM (PST) via the comment section at the bottom of this post for an hour. All questions will be answered by Rush himself. If there is anything you are curious about Rush, feel free to ask via the comments! It can be anything, including questions about the game or personal things. Also, you can leave your questions in the comment section before the AMA starts, which Rush will also answer. So… please leave a comment on this post right now! >w<


We will be giving out 1,350 RP gift cards that can be redeemed on the NA server to 10 people randomly selected from all participants of the event (Korean participants will be given a gift certificate worth 10000 WON).

 

※ The AMA event will start on April 17th and will end on April 20th 00:00 AM.

※ 10 randomly selected people will be given a 1350 RP gift card or gift certificate worth 10000 WON as a prize!

 

- Please note that the prepaid RP cards are for the North American League of Legends server and cannot be redeemed on other servers.


- All winners will be sent a notice to the e-mail address they registered with at the Inven Global website. Once we confirm the winners via e-mail, we will send them the event rewards right away.

 

※ The AMA with Rush is for people from all around the world, and the answers will be given to him in English. We would appreciate it if you leave comments in English via Google Translator for those who would like to check them out. (Rush 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.)

    Hi Rush! Do you have any regrets about returning to Korea? You don’t get as much playtime in LCK as you did in NA LCS, does that bother you at all? Hope to see you play more in LCK Summer! Thanks!

    Hello Rush nim(。・ω・。)ノ♡

    First of all,I wanna say I really like you and I am looking forward to your future game.Hope I can go to Korea and meet you someday! :D

    Ok!Back to the question XD

    It seems that AFs was already know how to counter you guys by just play a BO3 game with you. How do you think about this??What do you think is the biggest difficult for KT (and you)to overcome now??

    Why did you start playing Camille JG?And will you try some new JG champions in LCK game afterwards??

      It's not that AFs knew how to counter me, but I made a few mistakes in the match with AFs. I think that KT should on teamplay more.


      I think Camille is one of the best JG champs. Camille's skillset is really good.

    Hey Rush! Huge C9 fan here. Miss having you and Jensen Monkeying around together! My question is actually about your time with the boys in blue. It's probably been long enough for you to answer this so.... Why stick with the Kindred in playoffs even though it clearly wasn't working? Did you feel like you were just initially underperforming and that it was still the best pick, or was there outside pressure on you to select that champ? Either way, SUPER stoked to see you playing on KT! Hope playing with that many legendary players hasn't gone to your head! Good luck Kind Boy!

    Hi Rush! I really enjoy watching your stream. Wish you could do more in the furture!


    Some questions for you!

    1. Who do you think is the best jungler in LCK now?

    2. What are the differences between NA and LCK in terms of training, competition or anything?

    3. Does Smeb really take off his shoes during matches?

    4. Who are your close friends in LCK?

    5. I still remember the time when you did 1v1 solo Lee Sin with Peanut on your stream. It was fantastic! Will you do a solo again with Peanut? :)


    Good luck on the coming summer split! KT Fighting!

      @Lisa

      1. One of KT's Junglers
      2. LCK is more organized, and KR has lower ping so it's a better practice environment for me

      3. Yes (I actually asked Smeb and he said yes)

      4. I have so many friends in LCK! Can't pick one xD

      5. I was going easy on him. I would like to solo with Peanut again

    How is it like in terms of shotcalling between NA and KR?

    Do you want to looking to get a starting spot in KT eventually?

    How is it like playing with ucal instead of pawn?

    What would you like to achieve before you retire


    Thank you!

    Hey Rush! I really enjoyed your twitch streams back then and loved your play style. Although I’ve kinda tried to have your kind of play style it just hasn’t worked out for me. I don’t play LoL as much now because of school and things.
    Question 1!!!What are your thoughts on button mashers and how far do you think people like that’ll go?
    Question 2!!!Who’s the most toxic person you’ve met? (In competitions)
    Question 3!!What is your worst play ever?

    Hello Rush! I have been a fan ever since you played for Team Impulse. I rooted for you during the c9 days and the streams were some of the funniest I have ever seen. I have followed you ever since then. I am very happy to see that you have found a new home with KT Rolster.


    You've had many successes in your career and life. From attending one of the most prestiguous universities in Korea to earning the MVP award during your time in NA, and now being in one of the best Korean teams, what would you say was an event that you considered a setback? In other words, if there was one thing that you could change in your career, what would you change? Would you have taken a different route if you could?


    Thank you Inven and thank you Rush for taking the time to answer a question that I was always curious about.

    I've got a few questions.

    1. How was it to transition from streaming full time to playing on KT?

    2. Do you think NA is stronger this year now that they are sending another team? How will they perform against Korea?

    3. Is there any huge difference in the culture around esports in Korea vs NA? Like training times, how much you scrim, and solo q practice

    4. Will you ever return to streaming as a side hobby while you're on KT?
