Having spent the last three seasons of his MPL-PH career with Onic Philippines, Jay has been an integral player for the team. He was part of the roster that cruised into the MPL-PH Season 5 grand finals wherein they lost to the eventual back-to-back champion Sunsparks.
Jay was also part of the SEA Games 2019 gold-winning Sibol roster that consisted of other notable MLBB players Jeniel “Haze” Bata-Anon, Angelo Kyle “Pheww” Arcangel, Allan Sancio “Lusty” Castromayor, Karl Gabriel “KarlTzy” Nepomuceno, Carlito “Ribo” Jr., and Kenneth Jiane “Kenji” Villa.
Jay has stated in his personal Facebook post that he is thankful for being part of the organization. “Salamat sa 3 season Onic PH! [Good luck] sa [season 8] mga idoool labyu all” he stated.
Fans of the now-former team captain showed support in the Facebook comments and in Twitter. Notable shoutcasters Daniel “Leo” Cubangay from Leo Gaming and MPL-PH veteran caster and analyst Caisam Yvez “Wolf” Nopueto also voiced out their sentiments for his departure.
