Red Bull has officially signed Tyson “TenZ” Ngo, one of Valorant‘s most iconic players and influential content creators, to its growing roster of elite esports talent. TenZ joins an impressive Valorant lineup at Red Bull that already includes Tarik “tarik” Çelik, Melanie “meL” Hoi-San Man, and fan-favorite team Sentinels.
The signing was announced during the ongoing VCT Masters tournament in Toronto, Canada, signaling Red Bull’s continued investment in the Valorant ecosystem and in personalities who transcend competitive play. With over 11.75 million followers across all of his socials, TenZ is not only a top-tier FPS talent but also a leading voice in the broader gaming community.
TenZ’s rise to stardom was cemented in 2021, when he helped lead Sentinels to an undefeated run at the inaugural international VALORANT LAN in Reykjavik. His poised gameplay and calm presence under pressure became a benchmark for excellence in the title’s early days. Even after officially retiring from pro play at the end of 2024, TenZ has remained prominent in the scene as a top Twitch streamer.
Red Bull has long been a leader in esports, with a roster spanning multiple titles including League of Legends, Counter-Strike 2 (CS2), and Dota 2. The energy brand partners with teams such as OG, G2 Esports, and Cloud9, while also hosting high-profile events like Red Bull Campus Clutch and Red Bull Home Ground in Valorant.
With the addition of TenZ, Red Bull has doubled down on its commitment to representing some of the biggest names in esports. More details about upcoming content and activations featuring TenZ are expected in the coming months.
