I dont think the result would have helped him, obviously, but I was disappointed to see that. I only met Ronny once and he came across as a gentleman, very knowledgeable about football and I liked talking to him.I just said last week that I dont think anyone deserves some of the criticism that he has received from certain individuals.

Team SoloMid lost to Royal Never Give Up, TSM beat Samsung Galaxy, and to close out Saturday night, Samsung kept its hopes alive by using a gung-ho engage composition to take down the undefeated Chinese side RNG. The only change in the Samsung lineup from Fridays loss to TSM to the victory over RNG was in the support position, former Dignitas AD carry Jo Core JJ Yong-in taking over the starting role from veteran support Kwon Wraith Ji-min. The change worked for the team, and the newfound proactive play from Samsung led them to a must-win victory over RNG.ESPN spoke to Core JJ following the win.I think the impression [Wraith is more defensive, Im more offensive] comes from that Im really proactive about the things I want to try in game, said 22-year-old Core JJ. [I want] to make plays, so thats why people might say Im aggressive.Core JJ began his career in the semi-pro South Korean scene as an AD carry.

It wasnt until later in the year when he decided to switch roles full-time and become a support.When I was playing AD carry, I thought to myself Im not going to be the best AD carry in the world, he admitted. So thhats a thought I always had.dddddddddddd But because I have so much experience in the bottom lane, I thought I could transition into a support and actually become the best support in the world. So thats why I decided on a new role.Back on Dignitas, Core JJ was partners with longtime veteran of the North American scene Alan KiWiKiD Nguyen. I asked if his former support had inspired him in any way or taught him anything while trying to switch to his new position.When I made the decision to become a support, he didnt at the time give me advice or tips, Core JJ said. But playing with KiWiKiD was a great experience in itself. Hes just like I am: a really proactive player and likes to make a lot of creative plays. So I watched him and learned from his successes and failures, [and] it was actually a valuable lesson.I [remember] Team Dignitas as a great opportunity for me, he said. I was always going back and forth between pro and semi-pro leagues, and NA LCS was an actual pro league I could play in so it was a great opportunity. Dignitas allowed me to make a lot of great friends with the players and also the staff. So [Dignitas] is a really [positive] memory that I have.Closing the interview, we looked ahead into next week with Samsungs chance to make the quarterfinals at the World Championship after being one of the worst teams in South Korea last year.TSM [is the team I want to play against the most], he said. They beat us once, and I want that revenge. Also, today, I wasnt trying to get solo kills in lane, but come next week playing against TSM, Im ready to do that. ' ' '
