PTG Database Analysis

Tegoshi’s documented esports involvement is through T.N.T’s supporter role and live performance, not competitive play. The band served as the official cheering supporter of VALORANT Challengers Japan 2026, performed at the Season Finals, and wrote the lyrics for QT DIG∞‘s “TAKE OVER” after the club received an original song as its champion’s supplementary prize. The QTnet release names T.N.T collectively and does not assign Tegoshi an individual lyric or vocal credit on this track.[2][4][3]

That activity sits alongside Tegoshi’s domestic entertainment career and solo releases. He was a member of the idol group NEWS, began his solo career in 2021, released his third studio album “☆SUPER☆STAR☆” in August 2026, and completed a hall tour in September.[6][5][1]

For an esports organizer, the documented assets are the band’s live-performance format and its ability to create lyrics for a champion-linked song. The reviewed sources do not publish Tegoshi’s audience counts, endorsement terms or the recording-rights owner; the individual commercial reach and rights chain therefore remain undisclosed.[1][3]
