Heading into Champions 2023, Chinese VALORANT teams had a bit more respect shown their way thanks to the Masters Tokyo performance of EDward Gaming, finally getting the region’s first international win and earning a top-six placing. Now, exactly one year after Chinese teams made their international debuts as a region, the squads are starting to look like championship contenders.
With Bilibili Gaming upsetting NRG on Aug. 13 to secure their playoff spot in Champions 2023, there are two Chinese teams in the playoff stage of the tournament. Considering how it was only in Masters Tokyo two months ago that a Chinese team got their first international win, two teams going far prove that this region is no longer in development. It is here and ready to compete for titles both at the end of 2023 and into 2024.
