User blog comment:Fbhuvjhvbnvfdkv hfd/KS - Kill steal or Kill secured?/@comment-4950582-20140514081558

A kill steal would imply that the kill was being taken from someone who owned it, against their will. Quite simply, a kill is not something you can own, and even if you could, it would not be yours until you actually KILLED the target. If you don't kill the target, you can't call "Killsteal" because the kill, theoretically, was never yours in the first place.

I know myself I've gotten kills from enemies as a support (Nami auto-attacks so OP) and not batted an eyelash when my teammates started raging about a KS. So what if I got a lucky auto-attack in for the last hit and got the kill as a support, denying a teammate a pentakill. Who cares? Enemy team is aced, we won the baron fight, bot and top are pushing, so let's group, push mid and win this game already.

Obviously I'm a "Kill-Secured" kind of guy.
