What's happening in Chinese Valorant.

I remember Boaster talking about watching Chinese vods a while back and there's a ton of Chinese matches happening in like the right side of vlr.gg. Isn't Valorant banned in China or smth tho. Like does Valorant have a big community in China and what server do they play on? I don't follow Chinese Valorant so Idk anything really but if anyone does that'd be cool.

They've been playing in Hong Kong servers for most of the matches. Most of the big teams in China (Suning, iG, EDG, etc.) have their own teams. Plus a Chinese player (ZmjjKK) played in the SEA Challengers 2 Finals for CBT Gaming.

Not banned, just not officially recognized by govt.
CMIIW, in China all needs to be maintained by govt or at least Local company (since they're communists), and riot is independent company not native in china, so it's hard to get inside and get support from govt.
The example is LoL in China is maintained by riot and tencent.
