Part of the VALORANT community has expressed their disappointment towards Riot Games after Turkish news outlet Esporkolik reported earlier today that the developer will change its stance and allow partnered organizations to be sponsored by betting companies.
Gambling sponsors are expressly prohibited in VALORANT, according to the VCT global competitive policy rulebook published in 2021. Teams also cannot promote fantasy esports operators, alcoholic products, or partner with cryptocurrency platforms or other unregulated financial instruments. If Riot starts to allow betting companies to sponsor VALORANT teams, this could mean teams would get to earn more money to fund their operations, but part of the fanbase doesn’t agree this is the way to accomplish that.
