LoLeSports were able to catch up with Bjergsen in a chat about his transition over to North America.
Søren "Bjergsen" Bjerg has been considered a prodigious mid-laner since before he could even participate in the LCS due to age restrictions. Now, he's 17 and has shown his skill against other top EU players, a region known for having the most talent of in mid lane of any region. Bjergsen has since moved to North America to take over Andy "Reginald" Dinh's spot of mid laner.
In the interview, he explains how he's evolved due to his professional gaming career, how he wants to meet and play against mandatorycloud and more. Here is an excerpt of the full interview:
What convinced you that joining TSM was the right move?
Bjergsen: I really liked the U.S. when I visited. It all seemed really relaxed. The weather wasn’t minus degrees every day like in Denmark. I really liked the players. I’ve always liked them. I used to duo queue with Dyrus way back in season one on the EU server, when they played there.
I saw them playing at Worlds, too, and it was really impressive how they could beat Lemondogs, because a lot of European teams had a lot of problems beating them. When I saw TSM beating them, I thought, “Wow, they’re actually good.” Never mind all the branding and all that stuff. They were actually a good team.
What's been the biggest change in moving to California to join TSM?
Bjergsen: Moving into a gaming house and figuring out food on my own. I lived with my parents before, and they would always cook dinner… I’m sleeping on a mattress on the floor in Dyrus’s room. We’re getting a bed, but I said they didn’t need to rush it. Sleeping with Dyrus is fine, although he snores and talks in his sleep.
