China has 10x the population of Japan, a big internet/gaming culture and gambling is accepted in the culture (moreso than Japan).
stars website is blocked in mainland china

I have to vpn to get client updates, also for some reason 2p2 is often blocked in china but not always

tbh this sort of sponsorship shows how desperate Stars is to make some headway in the Asian market. Will she draw some players? Sure.
But will a pretty face get people to become emotionally invested in a product? No.
There's no legs (no pun intended) to this and will only generate a momentary spark.

I played on Stars when I lived there and there is a sponsored Japanese player, Naoya Kihara, the first Japanese player to win a bracelet.

But if Stars is blocked in China then I guess that answers the question.

you can play on stars in china, its just the website is blocked

idk why this is, but I'm guessing china doesn't want its own citizens playing while its ok for foreigners doing it
