PTG Database Analysis

NOVA’s commercial profile is broader than its VCT CN roster: the club reports more than 100 players across 10-plus titles and a seven-title world-championship record, while the China VALORANT team adds a domestic Tier 1 audience. The official Weibo count provides one channel measure; NOVA does not publish a deduplicated cross-platform figure in the cited materials.[1][2][3]
