He's now revealed his thoughts in a wide-ranging interview. \"[Offseason] between Spring and Summer is already hard, but [it] didn't help that I felt like FLY already made the decision pretty early on, but they didn't really tell me. I had to find out from other people, which was pretty weird,\" Jensen said in an interview with NAmen on June 15. \"I messaged FLY myself to [ask], and I was told to wait a few days, then I was told I was replaced. \"[The decision] wasn't made back then, don't worry. We're not hiding it behind your back,\" you know? But obviously, that's bullshit; I knew it was coming. Kind of shitty of them, but I'm just grateful I was able to find a spot in the end on such short notice,\" he further said reflecting the poor last-minute decision of FlyQuest which could've affected his LCS career until Dignitas signed him at the last moment as their mid-laner. According to League stats aggregator Oracle's Elixir, the Danish mid-laner had the second-highest kills (57) in his lane in the 2024 LCS Spring Split and bagged four Player of the Match awards. FlyQuest ended their campaign as table-toppers, but their stellar run ended against Team Liquid, who won the split. FlyQuest also qualified for MSI 2024, but they saw an early exit from the tournament during the play-in stage, and Jensen was a sharp critic of the team, which couldn't meet the expectations of the American fans. With Jensen's signing, Dignitas has gathered a wealth of veterans like Licorice and Zven. Meanwhile, FlyQuest has replaced Jensen with Song \"Quad\" Su-hyeong, a former LCK mid-laner, while retaining the rest of its team. Even though the team started its 2024 LCS Summer Split campaign with a loss against Cloud9, the team's chemistry should improve with time, and Dingatas fans might be in for a treat. Next up, Dignitas faces \u2060100Thieves on June 23, aiming to get their first win of the split.","apple_news_notices":[],"jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"jetpack_featured_media_url":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/53793900586_444ecfb5af_k-1.jpg","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1261873"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2041"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=1261873"}],"version-history":[{"count":2,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1261873\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":1261890,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1261873\/revisions\/1261890"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/1261876"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=1261873"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=1261873"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=1261873"},{"taxonomy":"invoiceable_action","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/invoiceable_action?post=1261873"},{"taxonomy":"internal-label","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/internal-label?post=1261873"},{"taxonomy":"article_type","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/article_type?post=1261873"},{"taxonomy":"author","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/coauthors?post=1261873"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
