Blizzard ban pro Hearthstone player over support of Hong Kong protests

Blizzard have temporarily banned Hearthstone pro Chung “Blitzchung” Ng Wai for saying “liberate Hong Kong, revolution of our age!” during a post-match interview, expressing his support of the Hong Kong protests. This happened last Sunday, during the Hearthstone Grandmasters tournament. In addition to removal from the rest of the tournament and a one year ban, Blizzard will not pay out the prize money Blitzchung is owed for his participation so far. Blizzard have also stopped working with the two casters involved in the interview.

Nice one, Blizzard.
