considering China kind of exists on it's own island to an extent who knows?
looking at another blizzard game like WoW where basically it runs dis jointly in China from the rest of the world. It wouldn't surprise me if Blizzard is treating SC2 in china differently then elsewhere.

It's not NetEase that runs Dota 2 in China, it's nexxon I think. So it would be weird for them sponsor a competitiors moba while also trying to launch their own moba

It's not size of the esports scene... it's that Chinese computers (or Chinese computer consumers anyway) are behind the rest of the world. They run WC3 and Dota 1 because they cannot run SC2 and Dota 2 (and to a lesser extent LoL).
A funny metric this reminds me of: http://www.ie6countdown.com/
China accounts for more than half of IE6 usage worldwide.

That's because many popular browsers developed by Chinese IT companies, they are usually based on IE. And Chinese youngsters use those a lot, they are customized to their needs, but chrome/Firefox don't. And Chinese are much more nerdy than Europeans/Americans, they know much more about computer than average Americans. They pay very close attention to hardware performance. Pc isn't expensive anyway.

Hehe, any Chinese esport thing must have a picture of Grubby.
