I wanted to step down earlier this year,\u201d she said. \u201cI\u2019ve been having a really hard year with TSM, with I guess you could say new management. And I\u2019m not sure if on the outside it\u2019s very apparent. But, it\u2019s been hard, and as the situation with S\u00f8ren unfolded, I feel like for me a really important thing is working with people I like, and even enjoy outside of the work environment.\u201d Leena referenced lifelong TSM League of Legends player and coach S\u00f8ren \u201cBjergsen\u201d Bjerg, who has left the team he\u2019s been part of his whole career.

So I\u2019ve been starting work with OTV over the last couple of months, it\u2019s been almost half a year now working behind the scenes. I had reached out to Scarra, basically expressing that I wanted to continue to work with creators. I wanted to work with people who I feel like we\u2019re on the same wavelength.\u201d Leena\u2019s exit from TSM is amid drama involving her partner, Yiliang \u2018Doublelift\u2019 Peng, a former LoL pro-player for TSM who now streams for the org. Doublelift called out the team\u2019s owner, Andy \u2018Reginald\u2019 Dinh, and said he \u201charassed and abused people\u201d while he was a player for the team.
