BC.Game cannot compete under its official name and branding at the upcoming CS2 major in Singapore due to strict local regulations. CEO Ali “Ako” Muhanned clarified that tournament organizers and Valve are not behind the restrictions.

“Yes, we are not allowed to use our logo and name because of rules in Singapore, it is not Valve. And I knew this a very long time ago!” Muhanned said.

Unlicensed gambling companies operating within the region face strict promotional bans under regional laws. As a workaround, the organization has reportedly acquired the rights to the GODSENT tag for potential use during the event.
