The ONE Esports Singapore Major’s Group Stage is now officially underway.
The biggest story unfolding so far has been the standout play of Quincy Crew stand-in and Singaporean native Wilson “poloson” Koh Chin Wei.
Poloson found his way into the Singapore Major when Quincy Crew’s position 4 support player, Arif “MSS” Anwar was unable to join his team after testing positive for COVID-19. Then, his first replacement, Milan “MiLAN” Kozomara, was unable to make it to Singapore due to travel issues.
With no one left to ask, Quincy Crew decided to take a risk by turning to a local Singaporean pro they’ve never played before. Poloson seized the opportunity to compete in his first-ever Major.
Here’s the quick rundown on Poloson’s career so far:
- 24-years-old.
- Turned pro in 2012.
- First pro team was Singaporean team, First Departure, where he played Position 1/2.
- Since then he has played for nine different squads, including a short stint with T1 last year.
