The Brazilian esports team LOUD announced the extension of their contract with Valorant player tuyz until 2026.

Tuyz, 20 years old, began his Valorant career in 2020 by joining INGAMING Esports in July of that year. He later played for mid-tier Brazilian teams such as Imperial and TBK Esports before joining LOUD in October 2022. As part of LOUD, he achieved significant success: the team finished second at VCT 2023 LOCK//IN, won VCT AMERICAS 2023, and placed third at VALORANT Champions 2023.

In 2024, LOUD continued their successful run, finishing second at VCT AMERICAS 2024 KICK-OFF and fourth at VCT 2024 Masters Madrid. However, after the conclusion of Masters, tuyz faced visa issues, which prevented him from entering the U.S. for more than 20 days. This impacted the team’s practice schedule, and as a result, LOUD finished sixth at VCT AMERICAS 2024 Stage 1 and ninth at Stage 2.

Additionally, in June 2024, pANcada returned to LOUD, leading to role changes within the team. Tuyz shifted from controller to duelist and also experimented with playing as an initiator for the first time. Despite struggles in recent matches, tuyz demonstrated flexibility and the ability to adapt to different agents.

The contract extension with tuyz strengthens LOUD roster, which continues to be one of the strongest in the American Valorant scene.
