Blizzard, which didn't immediately respond to a request for comment, has been struggling to contain a backlash after it punished the gamer Chung Ng Wai, known as Blitzchung. The player wore a gas mask and chanted a pro-Hong Kong slogan in a post-tournament interview, leading Blizzard to ban him from events for a year and strip him of $10,000 in prize money.

They permanently banned me from WoW back in 2008 for participating in a 4chan raid where we got together and formed a swastika with our bodies

I can't help but think that Blizzard banning you from WoW was doing you a solid.

WoW is boring, shallow, soulless garbage so of course you would prefer that game over the masterpiece that is XIV.

regardless of what he was actually arguing, they're right. when you sign up you agree that you're not going to use the competition as a political platform, which is perfectly reasonable
