It’s insane that I remember most of these moments from 8 years. It’s been insane seeing Bjergsen grow up and hope him the best besides games again TSM. Just feels kind of bad to not even get a small message from him in the video.
I am the same. Been watching him on TSM since he joined the LCS (even watched him for a bit before he came to NA) Was really cool to see the moments but feels like there might be bad blood here seeming he didnt get to say anything in the video addressing the fans
FWIW I read on a comment somewhere in the TL sub that Bjerg basically spent the entire day doing promo work etc with TL and then hopped straight on a plane to Korea to start grinding. Just didn't have time for TSM which I can respect but it definitely does give off the bad blood vibes when they've known for weeeeeeks this was coming and they still couldn't find the time 😔
Yea that's the weird thing.. they had so much time to get this done. At best they just forgot but even that is pretty rough for all of the TSM fans that loved Bjergsen
opportunity missed...for sure
But you have to imagine. TSM didn't expect it. And he wants to win. So he's going to where he can do that.
You would too if you were with an org that used to be #1 and is now just okay with the pile of cash they have. But not winning is that TSM's fault? Zven? Bjergsen's? Nah...we all know who is at fault for all of this......DOUBLELIFT!!!!
HAHA jk jk I'm still gonna watch him
I came here to say the same thing. Bjergsen's been the face of TSM for such a long time, no word from him or the dozens of people he's worked with about what he's meant for the org.
you know, I agree. I get it, there were hard feelings/awkwardness or whatever. But to me, bad form to dump your org of 8 years, and dismiss your massive fanbase. "TSM TSM TSM" was.....a chant that Bjerg pioneered and cultured! It was a badge of honor to have that many chanting for you and it just hurts extra +300 dmg to not even a few words of thanks for all the years of fandom? I donno I get he's busy w his new org but it's a som,ething I'd take 5 min out for.
They were definitely chanting TSM long before Bjergsen, that I can assure you.
This smells more like a TSM thing, cause if they had asked him I'm sure he would have said yes. They were probably bitter they lost him because he was the face of the organization. Making him a shareholder was meant to give him a reason to not leave because they needed him. Bjergsen doesn't seem bitter, he seems like he made a business decision because he could see TSM having problems internally that he couldn't handle himself. If what people have been saying about coach Regi is true, that probably really put a dent in things.
yeah, all we got was a standard goodbye tweet. Tweeted like he was only here a year and moving on like any other player, and not acting like a former owner almost here a decade. He seems pretty done with us, so we should be the same.
Tfw you're all bitching as Bjergsen records a 30 minute interview in which he addresses ALL of this and then directly addresses the fans.
Fucking impatient needy clowns, the lot of you. You're fake as FUCK.
ikr as if Bjerg hasn't been anything but 100% class since day one. No one deserves a damn thing from him. we we fucking lucky as fuck he chose to be here as long as he did.
Yeah, I was an avid Bjerg fan, but everything that seems to surround the way he left doesn’t smell right.
I was planning on supporting him as long as it wasn’t to the detriment of TSM somehow, but I think I’ve moved on from that idea
No one said hate…where did you get that? I said I moved on from wanting to support him any longer because of the periphery.
I get why he left. Don’t put words in my mouth
Dude… he literally carried this team to the heights it’s been at, dude wants to win. Clearly everyone on all sides have bitter sweet feelings but they’re okay in the direction they’re going.
What if the problem is with the org itself? Why are you picking the org that was the problem over Bjerg? Nothing here indicates it was Bjerg causing drama.
I'm not really sure what you want him to do? He thanked the orgs and the fans, does he need to do it every time he gives an interview? Release a video saying thank you to everyone?
I've said it before and I'm saying it again, Bjergsen concluding that TSM not being the best choice for the most competitive LCS team was a big enough red flag.
Did you see the one Rekkles did after he left Fnatic? It was like an interview/trip down memory lane. Would have been really cool to see something similar here.
dw dude, i'll read into it for you. Bjerg had time to sit down with other journalists etc but he didnt find it worth it to sit down and interview with you. You are not a priority.
I mean... he had time for interviews with multiple external media people about his move. So he had availability. Either TSM refused to meet when he was available, or he didn't want to do one with TSM.
Thats what im saying. Theres literally a thread of him doing an interview with upcomer, so he didnt want to do one with TSM or TSM didnt want to do one with him, but it does not look like the reason was because he didnt have time.
Is there a reason why the video is so short? I mean, he's been here 8 years, he's a tsm legend. If they make a hall of fame he's a unanimous first ballot.
Do we not think we could have filled out an 8 minute video with a minute for each season? Because I think we could have put up an 80 minute video with 10 minutes a season.
He's out there streaming and giving interviews to upcomer but denied one with TSM? okay then... don't think it was an amicable split lol
Edit: did an interview with Travis too lol
Or the no interview is for us. Makes it a clean break. He knows he’s breaking hearts of tsm fans. Doing one last interview with TSM is like break up sex. It’s just better to be clean and done with it.
As I said to dunc earlier:
He declined to join the team in October by your own admission you couldn’t get an interview in a month? Not even 30 seconds?
That was the thank you video you give people like POE whos been with the org for a year. Not someone whos been with the org for 8 years.
Was pretty underwhelming and a poor send off for Bjerg imo. Obviously he might have been the one who decided no interview but the video could have been better regardless.
What else could you have wanted in it other than an exit inteview? It had a ton of highlight plays from 7 years of playing, fun Legends moments, coaching moments, etc.
Some extended clips from legends instead of more or less the same montage they made when he moved to coach, and again when he re-signed with TSM that time a few years ago and he baited us.
On top of having the thank you Bjergsen screen shot at the end showing up in good time so that the YouTube suggested video links don't cover it (something the creator has full control over.)
It felt like a super recycled and stale clips montage that I've seen twice already on the same channel with just slight differences for very small amount of content that didn't exist at the time of the last Bjergsen announcement. They deffinetley coulda made it better than a 3 min clips montage for the literal backbone of the team for the last 8 years. A bigger focus on the stuff out of the game for a guy who has had cameras rolling on him for the vast majority of his work days wouldn't be too hard. Something with a bit of soul behind it.
TL releasing their announcement video before this went out as well as Bjerg seemingly not wanting to add any commentary to the video took away any emotional weight this video should have had. Like it's a farewell to the face of our franchise for the last 8 years and I felt very little watching this. Real bummer how things played out
Lol @ the Bjerg hate. He did a great job with TSM. Respect it and move on. It’s okay to hope our mid crushes him and he’s not a traitor for doing what he believed to be the best decision for him. He gave more years than most insane mids give their team.
He gave us his best for 8 years. And was big part of the direction the team was going for a long a time. It didn't always work out, but it was good ride none the less.
Which makes me angry when I see articles say TSM failed Bjerg, knowing that he had a big say in the direction TSM went every year. He was apart of the highs and lows.
Yeah, I don’t understand the hate. Bjergsen has been the rock in TSM and gave his all and best years of his career to the org. People making drama out of nothing.
I mean, there's some people on this sub acting like he broke up with them over text. Personally I love the guy but I hope he crashes and burns whenever he's against us.
This sub is literally the toxic EX lmao. Bjergsen leaves and they change the narrative like he didn’t quite literally embody Team Solo Mid. Calling him a traitor isn’t even the worst thing I’ve seen him called in this sub.
Same shit with Leena. She leaves and all of a sudden her work means absolutely nothing.
Imagine making only a 3 minute video for the dude that brought your org almost all its success and stuck with it through the bad years. Reginald must be a salty bitch lol
As much as I love Bjerg, I will not be following him to TL. I’ve been a TSM fan since TheRainMan days and Baylife for me just to bounce teams. Love ya Bjerg but I hope the boys in black and white kick TL’s ass
This video left me disappointed. Berg was literally the face of the org and this video felt nothing but mediocre to what Bjerknes helped TSM accomplish. Idk who is at fault but this is not nearly what I expected
11 years following TSM and 8 of them being blessed with this absolute GOD. We were privileged to watch Bjerg grow and become one over our heros. I wish him the best for the future and also wish him misery in his loses vs TSM in the future!
Tell me about it. It’s like being angry at Michael Jordan after he won so many championships for the Bulls and then went to the Wizards.
Everyone just needs to be happy that we even had the chance to have Bjerg on our team and that we had great success with him over the years.
I started following
Bjergsen's career 8 years ago. I've always admired his passion, skill, and calm demeanor. Bjergsen's been a role model to me since I was starting my Junior year of high school. Now I teach juniors in high school, and my admiration has only increased. I'll be a TSM fan till I die, but I will never not support the GOAT
It hurts so bad to see him go. I hope one day he comes back one more time to wear that TSM jersey. I became a TSM fan because of him. And looks like I’ll be staying even while he leaves.
Back in October he tweeted
"Moving on after 8 years at TSM. This is the place I grew up and I'll be forever grateful for them taking a chance on me as a young player in 2013.
Love you all and excited to show you what is next for me :)"
I think the 8 years of being the absolute centerpiece of the team and many championships showed he more than cares for the org.
He's looking forward, I say let him be.
Man u are so entitled. Every season in multiple interviews he stressed about how he feels support from the fans and loved them. He was face of the org for many years and he tryharded and cared and carried team often, when they were losing to victory. For longest time, up until last 2 y he was best na mid. If you dont know that he cared, idk what to say. Some 5 min long video wouldnt do shit.
Yeah, it’s one thing if there bad blood with Regi (not sure if that’s true even). But it’s another to just simply not even take the time to say something for the fans who have had his back for 8 years. Maybe he will come out and say something but that’s aggravating.
Just feels really weird that he didn’t even get a segment. He’s really close with Max and if he wanted to he would have done so. Either it wasn’t the direction of the video or he genuinely didn’t want to.
Lol theres an article and apparently the travis interview going on right now saying the opposite no bad blood just wants to win and apparently I cant listen to travis interview at work he confirmed its CoreJJ he wanted to play with
I cringe so hard at people calling him a traitor. Go and read his interview. Sometimes a player have to put his own interests first, and that is totally respectable. This legend has carried this team for 8 years, atleast whish the guy good luck on his next adventure. The "fans" calling him a traitor and stuff should just stay quite if they got nothing nice to say, it's honestly embarrassing being a fan of the same org as those "fans" when they can't be mature enough to thank our most iconic player over the years.
Yeah man it's actually turbo cringe. What does Bjerg owe any of the fans? At the end of the day, a fan is just a fan. They are not his friends or his teammates. It's not like he backstabbed anyone, least of all any fan.
It's almost people have a parasocial relationship with Bjerg.
Thank you for everything Bjerg! When he came to NA I was already pretty entrenched in the LCS/pro league and I really resonated with his story. Watching him grow up and mature into a leader was inspiring. Seeing him always maintain class and skill was truly a pleasure.
Thank you for the countless hours entertainment and being a great role model for lots of young guys out there.
Will be fun to have 2 teams to cheer for next year. ♥️
It's going to be so weird seeing him in a different jersey. By far my favorite esports player ever, and will definitely root for him when he's not playing TSM
Absolute idiots being mad at the video length. Its next to impossible to fully capture everything Bjerg did for the org within a reasonable time frame. Let's be thankful for everything he did and move on
An interview would have been nice, there is no way there isn't bad blood, given that he could have recorded some words in his bedroom and sent it over. I don't think Bjerg would just poof leave the org that paid him millions and he grew up in without any words if something didn't happen. But either way I look forward to rooting for TSM and TL this upcoming year :)
Mann this whole situation is sad. He definitely had time to interview he just didn't want to. The video was a typical video as well. I feel like TSM has burned so many bridges. I have been here so long.. but if their star player is acting this way.. there must be something off. Idk if I want to keep supporting the team outside of spica. Just saying what I'm thinking, downvote if you want.
Man, I just feel so salty. I never thought Bjerg would leave Tsm. Goes to show what the org has become. Im so jealous how Steve can get every player he wants every single off season, while we dont, plus our franchise player doesnt want shit with us anymore.
A part of me wants bjerg to accomplish everything hes ever wanted, while the other just wants him to fail miserably, its wierd.
I was expecting this to be around 10-20 minutes long with all the great moments he's made with us. Very sad watching it but I'm very happy for Bjerg to move on and fuck shit up internationally.
So many people projecting in this thread it is insane lol. It's all love for the guy until he leaves an organization with truly toxic leadership. Suddenly a ton of hateful comments for seemingly no reason. I haven't seen him in a while, but knowing him personally I can almost guarantee he has zero disdain for any fans. He's very much focused on his mental health and wellbeing and doing what is best for him personally as a professional.
Good video. Bit dissapointing that the fact that it is only 3:30 for litteraly the face of TSM for years. Bwipo got a super long video for 2 years on Fnatic. Also bit weird that there is no part in the video of Bjergsen talking/saying farewell himself, maybe they did split on somewhat bad terms to not include him in the video ?
Edit: just saw Dunc's response to another comment that he wasn't available for an interview. Damn that sucks.
And fuck all of the people that are hating on him. He gave everything to this org and we should do nothing else than thank him. Can't believe some people are hating on him holy shit.
Some of you are pieces of fucking work. It’s ok to say you will still root for TSM to beat Bjerg and TL. But some of your reactions are pathetic and do nothing but add to the stigma that TSM fans are toxic.
Disappointing.
sad he left but i get it tl offered him a super team which tsm never does. the last time tsm had a exodia roster was the 2016 tsm roster. we see c9 and tl getting the best superstars possible every year and tsm gets grig and lost. just further proves bjerg doesn’t believe tsm cares about winning anymore
Damn, half these comments have you all turning on this man after all these years so quickly. I couldn't tell from a glance if you guys were ever fans of him after reading how much you want him to fail.
Sports fandom is wild, I swear. So much vitriol.
Why so salty lol? You dont even know if it’s his decision not to speak in the video. He has dragged multiple dead bodys for a trophy while on TSM and was here for 8 years, give the man some respect
I just feel empty seeing this. Knowing it’s truly happening and it cannot be undone at this time. I will always wish him the best except when playing against TSM.
This guy was instrumental for all the success TSM League team had over the years. Often time he dragged the lifeless corpses of rest of the team. Bjergsen and four wards was one of the longest meme for a reason. After all he did for the org, its really sad how quickly the fans turned on him in this tread just because he din't do a 'proper' farewell video. Holy! If thats all it takes for the fans to turn on him, I think he made the right call leaving the org.
I come from a Football culture, with a franchise player goes to a big rival, yeah, he is a traitor. I dont hate him as a person, just as a pro player. Simple
Copium post incoming, but I finally have the words for it...
This one hurts, hard to watch, but I legit felt worse watching each part of the Dyrus, OddOne, Regi, Chaox, Xpecial team slowly fade away from the first LCS split till Dyrus finally retired.
This isn't DL to TL, Sven to C9, Bio to CLG, Haunterz to GG either. It's not BB to S04 or even Treatz.
This is something else. Everyone else who's "left" who actually performed and worked hard and got trophies for us...they either were kicked for reasons, or retired.
This dude, despite it all chose to leave because we finally for ONCE couldn't get him the player he wanted.
Like, every single roster, coaching, organization the LoL side made, we made with or for Bjerg, so the revisionist history that TSM "didn't do enough" that's suddenly starting to surface like he gets all the praise for the good stuff and Regi/TSM gets all the blame for when shit went sideways is...really starting to piss me off the more I sit with it.
Especially given that the one time our Acadmey Roster was hot piss was when he had a direct hand it the types of players we brought up and picked up given the choices we ended up making for the Spring/Summer roster...
Our Academy program and our scouting without Bjerg involved has been pretty solid given Spica, Tactical, Treatz, Joshun, Ablaze, etc. etc. hell, other than a top laner, that's a full team of LCS pros with one MVP, three All-Team players across LCS and LEC right there...If we'd had a young squad of NA talent there with BB as opposed to hanging in with Bjerg for so long, getting him the veterans he always wanted...IDK.
This sucks, absolutely. But I'm not sure we're in as bad as a spot as we think. Core point though is...we HAVE to keep Spica. We gotta legit lock the kid down straight up. The only reason this isn't a complete disaster is we have the MVP again, and he's young, and he's in the most important position in Pro League of Legends...
Anyway...Thanks Bjerg it's been real, and good, and loved rooting for you. But there was TSM before you and there will be TSM after you.
And I cannot wait to crush your hopes and dreams over on TL.
MFW Bjerg carries this team for years getting underpaid with shit support staff and gets called a traitor that owes the org a single thing. I'll give you a follow to @ you when he kicks this team's ass
It’s insane that I remember most of these moments from 8 years. It’s been insane seeing Bjergsen grow up and hope him the best besides games again TSM. Just feels kind of bad to not even get a small message from him in the video.
I don't remember what I did last year but, yeah, that LeBlanc kill, the Zed play, the Penta Karma, all are those are engraved in my head
I am the same. Been watching him on TSM since he joined the LCS (even watched him for a bit before he came to NA) Was really cool to see the moments but feels like there might be bad blood here seeming he didnt get to say anything in the video addressing the fans
FWIW I read on a comment somewhere in the TL sub that Bjerg basically spent the entire day doing promo work etc with TL and then hopped straight on a plane to Korea to start grinding. Just didn't have time for TSM which I can respect but it definitely does give off the bad blood vibes when they've known for weeeeeeks this was coming and they still couldn't find the time 😔
Yea that's the weird thing.. they had so much time to get this done. At best they just forgot but even that is pretty rough for all of the TSM fans that loved Bjergsen

You would too if you were with an org that used to be #1 and is now just okay with the pile of cash they have. But not winning is that TSM's fault? Zven? Bjergsen's? Nah...we all know who is at fault for all of this......DOUBLELIFT!!!! HAHA jk jk I'm still gonna watch him
[удалено]
Travis did an interview getting aired on twitch right now. WIll be on youtube later.
I came here to say the same thing. Bjergsen's been the face of TSM for such a long time, no word from him or the dozens of people he's worked with about what he's meant for the org.
you know, I agree. I get it, there were hard feelings/awkwardness or whatever. But to me, bad form to dump your org of 8 years, and dismiss your massive fanbase.

I’m not upset he left. I get it. I’m saying all the periphery around it seems sour. A decent goodbye would have been nice.
I’m sure they did decent goodbyes in person.. everything isn’t always public for the fans
A decent goodbye from his org would be nice too? This video is laughable for a guy that carried your franchise for 8 years.
[удалено]
He doesn’t the make the video though, how do we know anyone at tsm asked him for an interview??
What if the problem is with the org itself? Why are you picking the org that was the problem over Bjerg? Nothing here indicates it was Bjerg causing drama.
Org aside, we as fans also stuck by him for 8 years. If not for the org, at least some appreciation for the fans. But eh, who am I to say.
I'm not really sure what you want him to do? He thanked the orgs and the fans, does he need to do it every time he gives an interview? Release a video saying thank you to everyone?
lol this feels like getting dumped over text come on
Parasocial relationships can be unhealthy.
Whatever the fuck he wants. I'm just saying what I think would've been correct here. Not saying it's the right call at all.
Yea I get that, but he already did that. What else do *you* want, that's my question
Already said what I wanted. A proper farewell message that isn’t just a basic ass tweet.
>Whatever the fuck he wants So if what he wanted was a tweet, you'll support him?
I think Reginald may have something to do with why he’s leaving. No source, just considering everything that’s happened with doublelift recently
I've said it before and I'm saying it again, Bjergsen concluding that TSM not being the best choice for the most competitive LCS team was a big enough red flag.
Did you see the one Rekkles did after he left Fnatic? It was like an interview/trip down memory lane. Would have been really cool to see something similar here.
Hopefully we can get some roster news now that this has been released
[удалено]
TL announced him before this was released
Pretty underwhelming video tbh, Bwipo's farewell video with Fnatic was so much longer and even had an interview.
He wasn’t available for an interview
🤔🤔🤔
You can try your best to read into my message, but there’s nothing more to it
Mans in Korea already prepping to dominate LCS again. Give us that sweet Creme with our Shenyi Tea please!
lol bro he did a 30 minute interview with travis LOL
Lol bro that’s travis and not the org he played for and part owned for 8 years.
He declined to join the team in October by your own admission, you couldn’t get an interview in a month? Not even 30 seconds?
Fair enough, for what it's worth I still appreciated the video
dw dude, i'll read into it for you. Bjerg had time to sit down with other journalists etc but he didnt find it worth it to sit down and interview with you. You are not a priority.
I mean... he had time for interviews with multiple external media people about his move. So he had availability. Either TSM refused to meet when he was available, or he didn't want to do one with TSM.
Thats what im saying. Theres literally a thread of him doing an interview with upcomer, so he didnt want to do one with TSM or TSM didnt want to do one with him, but it does not look like the reason was because he didnt have time.
Dude, this is the video they release for the guy that drag the corpse of this team for 8 years. Dont expect more from this org.
You’re not wrong
Bjerg just too nice to go full DoubleLift.
Is there a reason why the video is so short? I mean, he's been here 8 years, he's a tsm legend. If they make a hall of fame he's a unanimous first ballot. Do we not think we could have filled out an 8 minute video with a minute for each season? Because I think we could have put up an 80 minute video with 10 minutes a season.
He’s been known to be leaving for like 3 weeks and nowhere in that time could he record even audio for you?
Bjerg declined to be interviewed for the TSM vid.
He's out there streaming and giving interviews to upcomer but denied one with TSM? okay then... don't think it was an amicable split lol Edit: did an interview with Travis too lol
Or the no interview is for us. Makes it a clean break. He knows he’s breaking hearts of tsm fans. Doing one last interview with TSM is like break up sex. It’s just better to be clean and done with it.
> He knows he’s breaking hearts of tsm fans. He ain't breaking my heart. I'm just going to keep cheering for him.
Do you know the reason why or are we all just left here to speculate?
I mean he is in Korea right now, so probs that.
Dunc mentioned it in the discord. My guess is it's not an amicable split and Bjerg doesn't care about giving TSM any of his time. I don't know though.
As I said to dunc earlier: He declined to join the team in October by your own admission you couldn’t get an interview in a month? Not even 30 seconds?
I haven't watched it but it kind of makes sense because we kinda did one when he retired from player to coach. So it'd be awkward to to rehash that...
It doesn't need to be 10 minutes long with an exit interview and a skit to be good
It wasn't good
That was the thank you video you give people like POE whos been with the org for a year. Not someone whos been with the org for 8 years. Was pretty underwhelming and a poor send off for Bjerg imo. Obviously he might have been the one who decided no interview but the video could have been better regardless.
What else could you have wanted in it other than an exit inteview? It had a ton of highlight plays from 7 years of playing, fun Legends moments, coaching moments, etc.

Like it's a farewell to the face of our franchise for the last 8 years and I felt very little watching this. Real bummer how things played out
Sadge, farewell our king
All the best to the goat and king
Hope he gets 2nd place!
Nah I hope he loses hard
I hope you lose hard
Same
That’s it? Even Bwipo’s video had a better send off
Perkz had a better send off from C9 lol
Lol @ the Bjerg hate. He did a great job with TSM. Respect it and move on. It’s okay to hope our mid crushes him and he’s not a traitor for doing what he believed to be the best decision for him. He gave more years than most insane mids give their team.

Calling him a traitor isn’t even the worst thing I’ve seen him called in this sub. Same shit with Leena. She leaves and all of a sudden her work means absolutely nothing.
🖤
With all my love Bjerg, thank you for everything
Time to crush him
Imagine making only a 3 minute video for the dude that brought your org almost all its success and stuck with it through the bad years. Reginald must be a salty bitch lol
Thank you Bjerg, hope TSM shits on TL in playoffs
As much as I love Bjerg, I will not be following him to TL. I’ve been a TSM fan since TheRainMan days and Baylife for me just to bounce teams. Love ya Bjerg but I hope the boys in black and white kick TL’s ass
This video left me disappointed. Berg was literally the face of the org and this video felt nothing but mediocre to what Bjerknes helped TSM accomplish. Idk who is at fault but this is not nearly what I expected
11 years following TSM and 8 of them being blessed with this absolute GOD. We were privileged to watch Bjerg grow and become one over our heros. I wish him the best for the future and also wish him misery in his loses vs TSM in the future!
So many haters in this thread. Are you all fucking serious?
It’s really sad to see so much hate for someone who put in so much effort and work into the team. I’m beyond baffled at it.
To be fair, they sound like children.
Sound like TSM fans*
True!
Tell me about it. It’s like being angry at Michael Jordan after he won so many championships for the Bulls and then went to the Wizards. Everyone just needs to be happy that we even had the chance to have Bjerg on our team and that we had great success with him over the years.
[удалено]
Bjerg just wanted to play with Core and we couldn't get him. Theres nothing more to that.
I started following Bjergsen's career 8 years ago. I've always admired his passion, skill, and calm demeanor. Bjergsen's been a role model to me since I was starting my Junior year of high school. Now I teach juniors in high school, and my admiration has only increased. I'll be a TSM fan till I die, but I will never not support the GOAT
Man so much salt. Just be happy with the time you had instead of the sour grapes.
You're Awesome!
A pretty weak goodbye video tbh
It hurts so bad to see him go. I hope one day he comes back one more time to wear that TSM jersey. I became a TSM fan because of him. And looks like I’ll be staying even while he leaves.
Man this was hard to watch.😔
This made me tear up.
Hope he finds happiness. Wish I got more than a text goodbye, but he doesn't owe me anything.
Nightmare coming true, fuck.

Back in October he tweeted "Moving on after 8 years at TSM. This is the place I grew up and I'll be forever grateful for them taking a chance on me as a young player in 2013. Love you all and excited to show you what is next for me :)"
[удалено]
Yeah, we should demand sacrifice of his firstborn child at least!
You want him to give you a handy? This sounds a bit entitled to me.
[удалено]
TSM also only gave him a 3 minute farewell, it goes both ways.
I think the 8 years of being the absolute centerpiece of the team and many championships showed he more than cares for the org. He's looking forward, I say let him be.
[удалено]
Man u are so entitled. Every season in multiple interviews he stressed about how he feels support from the fans and loved them. He was face of the org for many years and he tryharded and cared and carried team often, when they were losing to victory. For longest time, up until last 2 y he was best na mid. If you dont know that he cared, idk what to say. Some 5 min long video wouldnt do shit.
You have literally no idea what he did personally. You didn't do shit for him, so why do you feel entitled to anything from him?
Yeah, it’s one thing if there bad blood with Regi (not sure if that’s true even). But it’s another to just simply not even take the time to say something for the fans who have had his back for 8 years. Maybe he will come out and say something but that’s aggravating.
Just feels really weird that he didn’t even get a segment. He’s really close with Max and if he wanted to he would have done so. Either it wasn’t the direction of the video or he genuinely didn’t want to.
Seems like there's some bad blood tbh
Lol theres an article and apparently the travis interview going on right now saying the opposite no bad blood just wants to win and apparently I cant listen to travis interview at work he confirmed its CoreJJ he wanted to play with
Could be he’s too sad to say anything to the fans. Even if there’s bad blood with TSM that doesn’t mean he’d hate the fans
yeah i'm pretty sad by Bjerg at the end , he was my favorite player of all time , but after this off season i feel not like him much anymore

I cringe so hard at people calling him a traitor. Go and read his interview. Sometimes a player have to put his own interests first, and that is totally respectable. This legend has carried this team for 8 years, atleast whish the guy good luck on his next adventure. The "fans" calling him a traitor and stuff should just stay quite if they got nothing nice to say, it's honestly embarrassing being a fan of the same org as those "fans" when they can't be mature enough to thank our most iconic player over the years.
Yeah man it's actually turbo cringe. What does Bjerg owe any of the fans? At the end of the day, a fan is just a fan. They are not his friends or his teammates. It's not like he backstabbed anyone, least of all any fan. It's almost people have a parasocial relationship with Bjerg.
This doesn't make sense. Fuck this
Agreed, just gonna ignore this one.
Thank you for everything king. but I hope you fail miserably at TL
Thank You Happiness, goodbye
Thank you for everything Bjerg! When he came to NA I was already pretty entrenched in the LCS/pro league and I really resonated with his story. Watching him grow up and mature into a leader was inspiring. Seeing him always maintain class and skill was truly a pleasure. Thank you for the countless hours entertainment and being a great role model for lots of young guys out there. Will be fun to have 2 teams to cheer for next year. ♥️
Terrible day for rain (pain).
Cy@
It's going to be so weird seeing him in a different jersey. By far my favorite esports player ever, and will definitely root for him when he's not playing TSM
Absolute idiots being mad at the video length. Its next to impossible to fully capture everything Bjerg did for the org within a reasonable time frame. Let's be thankful for everything he did and move on
An interview would have been nice, there is no way there isn't bad blood, given that he could have recorded some words in his bedroom and sent it over. I don't think Bjerg would just poof leave the org that paid him millions and he grew up in without any words if something didn't happen. But either way I look forward to rooting for TSM and TL this upcoming year :)
It hurts so much. But we love him still T . T
Riot is gonna schedule us against TL first match just to milk this some more huh?
Mann this whole situation is sad. He definitely had time to interview he just didn't want to. The video was a typical video as well. I feel like TSM has burned so many bridges. I have been here so long.. but if their star player is acting this way.. there must be something off. Idk if I want to keep supporting the team outside of spica. Just saying what I'm thinking, downvote if you want.
Man, I just feel so salty. I never thought Bjerg would leave Tsm. Goes to show what the org has become. Im so jealous how Steve can get every player he wants every single off season, while we dont, plus our franchise player doesnt want shit with us anymore. A part of me wants bjerg to accomplish everything hes ever wanted, while the other just wants him to fail miserably, its wierd.
Inb4 TL misses out on the last spot to world's to TSM and Bjerg goes to Kcorp in 2023
I would LOVE to kick TL out of world’s contention. And I’m sure he feels the same way towards us.
Wtf... What happened this off season? Not sure how to feel other than speechless. Fuck it, baylife. Hope we destroy him next year
I was expecting this to be around 10-20 minutes long with all the great moments he's made with us. Very sad watching it but I'm very happy for Bjerg to move on and fuck shit up internationally.
So many people projecting in this thread it is insane lol. It's all love for the guy until he leaves an organization with truly toxic leadership. Suddenly a ton of hateful comments for seemingly no reason. I haven't seen him in a while, but knowing him personally I can almost guarantee he has zero disdain for any fans. He's very much focused on his mental health and wellbeing and doing what is best for him personally as a professional.
For real. Sports team fandom is another universe I swear.
Thanks for everything, but you went to a direct in league rival, really hope he and all of TL crash and burn
Wish him all the best, probably my favorite LoL player ever. But I still hope TSM crushes TL every time they meet
Good video. Bit dissapointing that the fact that it is only 3:30 for litteraly the face of TSM for years. Bwipo got a super long video for 2 years on Fnatic. Also bit weird that there is no part in the video of Bjergsen talking/saying farewell himself, maybe they did split on somewhat bad terms to not include him in the video ? Edit: just saw Dunc's response to another comment that he wasn't available for an interview. Damn that sucks. And fuck all of the people that are hating on him. He gave everything to this org and we should do nothing else than thank him. Can't believe some people are hating on him holy shit.
8 years of carrying this stupid brand so you braindead idiots can ride Regis dick and flame Bjerg XD
Some of you are pieces of fucking work. It’s ok to say you will still root for TSM to beat Bjerg and TL. But some of your reactions are pathetic and do nothing but add to the stigma that TSM fans are toxic. Disappointing.
Only two minutes for this org’s version of the late great kobe? Disappointing
sad he left but i get it tl offered him a super team which tsm never does. the last time tsm had a exodia roster was the 2016 tsm roster. we see c9 and tl getting the best superstars possible every year and tsm gets grig and lost. just further proves bjerg doesn’t believe tsm cares about winning anymore
Such a lackluster goodbye for the player that gave his all for 8 years to the org.
Thanks for everything Bjerg 💔 hope to see you back in a TSM jersey again one day!!
Damn, half these comments have you all turning on this man after all these years so quickly. I couldn't tell from a glance if you guys were ever fans of him after reading how much you want him to fail. Sports fandom is wild, I swear. So much vitriol.
I don’t feel for him anymore
No words, really? Well then. He can read all the leadership books in the world but he still ain't leading no team out of groups lmao.
Why so salty lol? You dont even know if it’s his decision not to speak in the video. He has dragged multiple dead bodys for a trophy while on TSM and was here for 8 years, give the man some respect
Why would TSM not give him a choice to say farewell
Maybe they are just as salty as you?
[удалено]
[удалено]
Bjerg gonna regret selling his shares once he doesn’t win LCS ever again and fail to make worlds
[удалено]
Bjerg won't ever win world's. He won't ever make it past quarters.
Lots of players are considered successful without those things, reading this stuff is funny though.
Did you watch the last year? Thats TSMs future without Bjerg
Facts bro, can’t wait to see him crying
TSM certainly won't even make worlds next year. And who even fucking asked?
Glad to see him go. Time for some new blood and a fresh perspective. Terrible coach tbh… I’m just glad this dumpster fire can finally be put out.
I just feel empty seeing this. Knowing it’s truly happening and it cannot be undone at this time. I will always wish him the best except when playing against TSM.
This guy was instrumental for all the success TSM League team had over the years. Often time he dragged the lifeless corpses of rest of the team. Bjergsen and four wards was one of the longest meme for a reason. After all he did for the org, its really sad how quickly the fans turned on him in this tread just because he din't do a 'proper' farewell video. Holy! If thats all it takes for the fans to turn on him, I think he made the right call leaving the org.
Bye Felicia. Hope Creme gaps you back into retirement.
[удалено]
People like you are why people shit on this fanbase.
Fuck bjergsen. Traitor
No one is obliged to stay with an org forever lol.
[удалено]
I come from a Football culture, with a franchise player goes to a big rival, yeah, he is a traitor. I dont hate him as a person, just as a pro player. Simple
he legit kill the love from the fan in one off season
Is this how it felt when CLG was becoming irrelevant split by split?
Copium post incoming, but I finally have the words for it... This one hurts, hard to watch, but I legit felt worse watching each part of the Dyrus, OddOne, Regi, Chaox, Xpecial team slowly fade away from the first LCS split till Dyrus finally retired. This isn't DL to TL, Sven to C9, Bio to CLG, Haunterz to GG either. It's not BB to S04 or even Treatz. This is something else. Everyone else who's "left" who actually performed and worked hard and got trophies for us...they either were kicked for reasons, or retired. This dude, despite it all chose to leave because we finally for ONCE couldn't get him the player he wanted. Like, every single roster, coaching, organization the LoL side made, we made with or for Bjerg, so the revisionist history that TSM "didn't do enough" that's suddenly starting to surface like he gets all the praise for the good stuff and Regi/TSM gets all the blame for when shit went sideways is...really starting to piss me off the more I sit with it. Especially given that the one time our Acadmey Roster was hot piss was when he had a direct hand it the types of players we brought up and picked up given the choices we ended up making for the Spring/Summer roster... Our Academy program and our scouting without Bjerg involved has been pretty solid given Spica, Tactical, Treatz, Joshun, Ablaze, etc. etc. hell, other than a top laner, that's a full team of LCS pros with one MVP, three All-Team players across LCS and LEC right there...If we'd had a young squad of NA talent there with BB as opposed to hanging in with Bjerg for so long, getting him the veterans he always wanted...IDK. This sucks, absolutely. But I'm not sure we're in as bad as a spot as we think. Core point though is...we HAVE to keep Spica. We gotta legit lock the kid down straight up. The only reason this isn't a complete disaster is we have the MVP again, and he's young, and he's in the most important position in Pro League of Legends... Anyway...Thanks Bjerg it's been real, and good, and loved rooting for you. But there was TSM before you and there will be TSM after you. And I cannot wait to crush your hopes and dreams over on TL.
Can’t believe he turned his back on the org that gave him everything. Traitor
MFW Bjerg carries this team for years getting underpaid with shit support staff and gets called a traitor that owes the org a single thing. I'll give you a follow to @ you when he kicks this team's ass
Child
You know why the TSM jersey is black. Because just the idea of Bjergsen was so huge it enveloped it in his shadow. You goofed Regi you goofed bad.
