TyLoo, the Chinese Counter-Strike team, hopes to break into the top-10 rankings
TyLoo, the Chinese Counter-Strike team, has often been considered a potential top-10 team in the world. However, due to travel restrictions, they have struggled to attend international events.
The most recent example was the SL i-League Season 2 Finals, which were supposed to be held in China. Because of the G3 summit, it became nearly impossible for competitors to enter the country. As a result, the event was relocated to Kiev, Ukraine, leaving TyLoo unable to travel.
Fortunately, TyLoo has been granted 10-year, multi-entry U.S. visas. This opens up opportunities for them to participate in North American events and potentially make their mark in the western world of Counter-Strike: Global Offensive.
TyLoo has already shown their skill and unique play style at international events, surprising European and North American teams. However, their performance in the western scene is yet to be seen.
With these new visas, TyLoo now has the chance to compete in North American events, such as the upcoming ELEAGUE Major in Atlanta next year. This will give them more opportunities to face off against the best teams in the world.
Whether TyLoo will make the move to North America is uncertain. Team Strategies’ attempts to reach out to the players have been unsuccessful thus far. Although teams like SK Gaming and Renegades have found success by moving out of their home regions, such a move is no easy task.
Considering the challenges faced by players like Chad “SPUNJ” Burchill when moving to the United States, the cultural differences between the United States and China may present additional hurdles for TyLoo.
Despite the uncertainties, TyLoo has a lot of potential, and it will be exciting to see them compete on American soil more frequently. Many are eagerly anticipating their future achievements.
