Our “KeyWord”  short interview series evaluates player responses to simple words. The response has to be based on the first thought that comes to mind once they hear a word, sometimes followed by additional questions. Marcin "Jankos" Jankowski shared his thoughts with us at the League of Legends European Championship.

Alright Marcin, let’s get started! First word:

Fear.

Losing World Finals.

Was it fear entering the stage?

Ah, no. I don’t feel fear when I enter the stage, but if I lose, I get really mad and I fear the feeling I have after losing. Normally I don’t think about it during the game. I don’t want to lose Worlds again, so when you say “fear”, that’s the first thing that comes out in my head because I hate losing.

Draft.

My sh*t coach, GrabbZ. *laughs*

Grass.

Summoners Rift.

End.

And?

End.

And?!

The END of something.

Ah… the end of… I guess… the game...? The end of... solo queue?! I DON’T KNOW!

Meta.

PLEASE don’t buff Sejuani…

Family.

My sister taking away my time from solo queue so I have dinner with her.

Int.

Qiyana. *laughs*

Cry.

Ah…

You thought about so many things just now, but you have to tell me the first thing that came to your head!

What? No I didn’t!

Yeah you did…

Okay, I thought about Worlds.

So, did you cry at Worlds?

I didn’t. That’s the point. 

Did you want to?

Yeah. Wait. I think I did, but I didn’t actually cry. I didn’t cry like *makes baby noises*, I just had tears in my eyes. I couldn’t let them out, it was too hard.

Why? Were you embarrassed?

No, no. I wanted to cry. It’s just so hard to cry. Sometimes I just want to cry, but I haven’t in such a long time, and I know it makes you feel better. I like to cry every once in a while to let the emotions out.
