In September 2025, Yu "
JackeyLove" Wen-Bo
mentioned the possibility of taking a break from his professional career to focus on his health. On November 27, with
Top Esports' star ADC
having re-signed for the 2026 season as announced by the club, he indicated a strong likelihood of missing the early part of the season.
Suffering from
chronic tinnitus—a condition causing constant ringing in the ears that disrupts sleep, focus, and overall mood—he explained that
his doctors have advised him for months against playing too many games in a row, as it severely strains his ears. Although the situation appeared critical and required urgent care, he plans to use the offseason for treatment, which will impact the season's start.
TES will run a six-man roster, at least at the start of the year. The club has already announced the signing of Zi "JiaQi" Jia-Qi, the ADC from Royal Never Give Up in 2025 until their dramatic downfall and mid-season exit, after which he joined FunPlus Phoenix to finish 9th-12th in the LPL's final split.
