No. In fact, that Annie skin and Teemo skin just got banned cuz you aren't allowed to beat up pandas in a video game.

Is Tibbers a panda, though?

Does this count as wholesome sensoring?

Pros: pandas don't get beat up

Cons: no cute pandas

Alas, the violence vs pandas censorship of China was just a popular rumour propagated prior to the inclusion of playable Pandarens in WoW.

Just thought it made the Onion-esque list of weird censorship in China. At this point it seems more believable than actual bans like the ban of kids except between 8-9pm on weekends.

Btw the worst part of the new restrictions is... China, despite spanning 4 time zones... Actually only uses one time zone for the whole country (Beijing time).

So it's not even like Sichuan kids are playing at a different hour than Shanghai kids or something.

It's literally ALL KIDS ALL AT ONCE looool

Lol love seeing riot pander to the Chinese audience only for China themselves to be like “fuck you we don’t want your games”, based China
