eSports Career of Søren “Bjergsen” Bjerg

During the Season 3 of the European League of Legends Championship Series (LCS), Bjergsen was unable to play with Copenhagen Wolves Week 3 due to age restrictions put in place by Riot Games.

For the first two weeks, he was temporarily replaced by the team’s sub Viktor “cowTard” Stymne. When he turned 17 years old on February 21, he was able to rejoin the main lineup and play their remaining LCS matches. Finding success with CW after his rejoining, the team was acquired and rebranded as Ninjas in Pyjamas (NiP) for the Summer LCS.

On November 2, 2013, Bjergsen left NiP to move to North America and join Team SoloMid as their mid-laner.

He was the 2nd player to cross over from the EU to NA LCS after Edward “Edward” Abgaryan left Gambit Gaming to join Team Curse during Season 3.

On January 23, 2014, Riot Games announced that Bjergsen had violated the LCS rules by approaching and encouraging a contracted LCS player to leave his position at Lemondogs. He admitted the violation and was fined $2,000.

Bjergsen won the Most Valuable Player Award at the conclusion of the 2015 North American LCS Spring Split.

TSM qualified for the 2015 League of Legends World Championship. At Worlds, TSM finished last in their preliminary group with a record of 1–5, eliminating them from the bracket stage.
