Dear Blizzard Entertainment,

We are Overwatch gamers and loyal audiences of OPC (Overwatch Pacific Championship) from Taiwan. We are writing to express our concern about an issue of defamation.

An internet celebrity from Taiwan constantly defames Blizzard Entertainment while streaming. We would like to ask for Blizzard’s official response to this issue.

The internet celebrity, Chen Chih-Han, is a fitness center director who usually makes controversial comments while streaming. As a popular streamer, Mr. Chen has 750,000 followers on Facebook, which makes him an opinion leader in Taiwan. The most controversial issue that Mr. Chen involved in is CJayride targeted harassment campaign. During the campaign, Mr. Chen calls for a boycott of Twitch in Taiwan.

Below are clips in which Mr. Chen defames Blizzard Entertainment.

(But I can’t put links in here…)

In the clips, Mr. Chen mentions the participants of OPC Season 2: Flash Wolves and ahq e-Sports Club. He claims that Blizzard Entertainment promises to sponsor FW and AHQ. He also claims that Blizzard breaks the promise which leads to the dissolution of FW and AHQ.

Although this information is questioned by Taiwanese OW community, there are a lot of rumors about Blizzard going around in Taiwan. However, Blizzard Taiwan is unwilling to respond to this issue. As a result, Mr. Chen keeps making videos to justify himself. He claims that all of his information comes from AHQ’s founder, Mr. Hsieh. By wagering 200,000 NT dollars on his credibility, Mr. Chen claims that he is telling the truth.

Contenders Pacific is right around the corner, videos and comments about the rumors of Blizzard still spread through social media. As a result, Overwatch and Blizzard Entertainment have a bad reputation in Taiwan currently. This issue may lead to a decrease in the numbers of OW players and OPC audiences. If needed, we hope that Blizzard Entertainment can take legal actions against the controversial celebrity, Mr. Chen, in Taiwan.

We look forward to a response from Blizzard Entertainment.

We also look forward to advice from the international OW communities.

Yours faithfully,

Loyal OW gamers & OPC audiences from Taiwan
