VCT China team TYLOO has announced the signing of Moses ‘Splash’ Jonathan to its VALORANT roster.

Splash previously competed for Rex Regum Qeon’s academy team and recently turned 18, making him eligible to play in the official VCT circuit.

Chinese esports organisation TYLOO was founded in 2007 and became one of the pioneers of the country’s Counter-Strike scene after 2010. In 2023, TYLOO entered VALORANT esports and soon became one of Riot Games’ Partner Teams when China received its dedicated VCT league.

However, the organisation has since struggled to reach the level of other teams within the region, frequently finishing its VCT runs at the bottom of the bracket. Most recently, the squad also lost promising talent, Zhang ‘zjc’ Juncheng, to 2024 Champions winner EDward Gaming.

After numerous roster changes year-on-year, TYLOO currently fields eight active players:

  • Ding ‘Ninebody‘ Yi
  • Sun ‘slowly’ Kelun
  • Xu ‘Waituu’ Yinze
  • Zhang ‘Scales’ Zhen
  • Hsu ‘Yoyo’ Yuh-siang
  • Li ‘sword9’ Wei
  • Moses ‘Splash’ Jonathan
  • xihe

Who is TYLOO’s New VALORANT Player?

Splash is a young duelist and initiator prodigy who began his VALORANT esports career in 2023 with NEXGA. Between late 2024 and March 2025, the Indonesian player represented RRQ Academy in the VALORANT Challengers Southeast Asia circuit.

His most significant achievements so far include a fourth-place finish in the Challengers 2024 Malaysia and Singapore: Split 1, along with a second place in the Predator League Singapore 2025.

For his first tournament under the TYLOO banner, Splash is headed for the VALORANT China Evolution Series Act 3, which sees 12 top Chinese teams compete from August 28th until September 7th.

As reported by VALO2ASIA, TYLOO will face Titan Esports Club or Dragon Ranger Gaming in its opening series on August 30th. Scales, slowly, sword9 and waituu will join Splash on stage while Yoyo, Ninebody and xihe will sit out the match.

ESI Ranking System
We’ve created a ranking system to help you quickly know how good each gambling platform is. As gamblers ourselves, we know which factors matter most to you, so we follow a best-in-class methodology to test each one with no stone unturned. Once done, we then rank each platform based on the following tiers:
  • A-Tier High-quality sites that deliver a top experience every time. They boast strong performance, nice features, and reliable support, but are just shy of perfection.
  • B-Tier Solid platforms that are worth a spin. They’re safe, fun, and functional, but may be lacking advanced features or have minor drawbacks.
  • S-Tier Reserved for elite operators only. These go well beyond the norm with lucrative bonuses, rewarding promotions, lightning-fast payouts, and a flawless experience overall.
