“They are adding everything except…” VALORANT Focusing On Araxys 2.0 Over the One Op Feature That Already Exists in Overwatch Is Why We Hate Riot

The leaker has added that gambling companies will not be allowed to place their logos on team uniforms but that does nothing because players will promote the companies on social media and streams. Many have opposed this decision as gambling has earned a bad reputation, mainly because some online casinos have been accused of using a rigged system to cheat the players.

How will this sponsorship benefit the teams?

The gambling company’s reputation doesn’t really matter as most esports teams are looking for funding. Even the leaker believes that this decision is good for stabilizing team economics. Many people all over the world support sports gambling but this industry, in particular, is different. The majority of the viewers are under the age of 18 with no constant income. Most people will agree that this decision will have a negative effect on the aforementioned audience as it will promote gambling.

Riot Games will not allow these companies to put logos on team uniforms so it technically does not count as advertising. Let’s hope that there are only positive outcomes from this decision as teams will certainly get massive funding from gambling companies.
