sirah: I'm more excited than nervous for the RMR; valde always has a solution | TEDD TALK S2 EP17
The 17th episode of the "TEDD TALK" is focused around 18-year-old ex- @mousesports NXT star and current @TSM talent - William "sirah" Kjærsgaard.
As always, we kicked things off with the conversation about growing up in the Danish scene, finding his first team via an online forum and then got to the transition international CS after joining MOUZ NXT. We went through his experience on the Academy, working with TOBIZ and the decision to leave for TSM and ended it with his first impressions of his new team as well as the preparation process for his first RMR.
The video was recorded on the 14th of November, 2024.
