Strong Against: Low Mobility champions as well as burst champions. The silence easily interrupts the ability to unleash their full combo as well as the ability to become tanky in a moments notice. The ability to dash multiple times makes low mobility champions easy to take down.
Weak Against: High mobility champions with lots of crowd control or mobility. Lee sin could easily disrupt Kuroya’s channel and burst him down. Avoiding all of his skill shots. Malzahar silencing Kuroya stoping his ability to cs. Zoning him due to being melee, as well as Malzahar’s ultimate directly counters Kuroya’s.
Counter Play: Be sure to avoid the curl of his q, as the root is quite potent but easily avoidable. Leaving his AOE immediately will instantly reduce Kuroya’s tankiness.
Kuroya’s passive is quite strong as anyone who kills him cannot stay in the first bush they enter because Kuroya’s team will gain vision of them and they will be slowed. After killing Kuroya avoid bushes if possible, if not possible immediately enter a bush take the slow and then find another bush to escape to as the 60 second cool down is quite long.
While Kuroya is ulting moving behind him will greatly reduce his ability to do damage. He deals damage in a cone in front of him so champions who easily can move behind him will counter him hard. Akali’s ability to dash through will make Kuroya’s ultimate very hard to use, as he will have to turn to auto attack Akali every time she ults. Additionally, Any immunity will totally nullify his ultimate: Bard, Kindred, Tryndamere, and Kayle.
Roles: Kuroya has decent sustain in the jungle, getting Between 2 and 4 stacks of Shadow doing camps. He has cc and mobility. Kuroya is a decent mid laner. With q being an efficient way to cs, as its cost and reward are equal. Kuroya is a decent support. W reducing armor of enemy champions, giving himself tank stats. Q providing cc, if he can hit it. E silencing them.
