Poloson leaves Xtreme Gaming for Yakult Brothers

Xtreme Gaming waved goodbye to Wilson “poloson” Koh, who left the Chinese Dota 2 team on Saturday, September 20, to rejoin Yakult Brothers as the second post-The International signing.

Poloson joined Xtreme Gaming in November 2024 as a replacement for Jiang “天命” An, having since retained his position as starting No.5.

However, the team failed to find consistency in their competitive endeavors, having won just three tournaments – FISSURE Special, ACL X ESL Challenger China, and Asian Champions League 2025.

Their best result of the year came at the tail end of the season, as Xtreme Gaming produced a miracle run to The International 2025 grand finals, which they accomplished without the 29-year-old, who missed the event due to tenosynovitis.

After being unable to help his team compete for the Aegis of Champions, poloson will also not represent Xtreme Gaming in the 2026 season, as he returns to the rival squad, Yakult Brothers.

Poloson previously wore the Yakult Brothers jersey last October as one of the inaugural members but left the team to join Xtreme Gaming after just one tournament – BetBoom Dacha Belgrade 2024 – in a swap deal for 天命.

Yakult Brothers would go on to make numerous roster changes throughout the year yet failed to secure a single tournament title, often losing to Xtreme Gaming in regional competitions.

While Yakult Brothers got their tickets for TI 2025 as a replacement invite for Gaimin Gladiators, they did not make it out of the Elimination Round, going down to HEROIC in a 0-2 defeat.

In an attempt to rebuild for the 2026 season, Yakult Brothers announced two changes on Sunday, including the departure of offlaner Xiang “Beyond” Zhenghong and support Chan “Oli” Chon Kien, who were replaced by Nicholas “zeal” Lim and poloson.

By signing for Yakult Brothers, the Singaporean pro is set to continue his Dota 2 career, which started in 2014 with Insidious Idol.
