Onmyoji Players Storm Diao Chan's Weibo Fandom Accusing Honor of Kings Skin of Copying Amaterasu — Get Absolutely Destroyed, Netizens Call It 'Flirting Between Two Giants'

Just when everyone thought the flames between Honor of Kings and Onmyoji players had died down, a fresh bombshell dropped — Onmyoji fans accused Diao Chan's "Valentine's Limited" skin of straight-up copying Amaterasu from their game. The cross-game art controversy dragged both communities right back onto the battlefield.

The real show, however, was the delivery method. Onmyoji players didn't just argue from the comfort of their own community — they charged headfirst into Diao Chan's Weibo super-topic (超话, a dedicated fan hub), a space infamous in the fandom for being one of the most toxic fan circles in the Chinese gaming scene, second only to Yang Yuhuan's corner. The result was predictable: the Onmyoji accusers got absolutely demolished in Diao Chan stan territory, outgunned and out-shouted at every turn.

NGA commenters were eating popcorn at maximum intensity. One quipped: "Wait, the goose and pig are flirting again?" — using "goose" (鹅, Tencent) and "pig" (猪, NetEase) as shorthand for the two rival gaming giants. Another delivered the most devastating one-liner: "An escalation? If there's no lawsuit, it's just flirting." The implication being that all this public posturing between billion-dollar companies is nothing more than rich people's play-fighting.

What made this even juicier was the revelation that Honor of Kings' internal hero stan wars are somehow more intense than the cross-game beef. One commenter laid out the chaos: Honor of Kings hero fans follow a "pacify the interior before resisting the exterior" doctrine. The Diao Chan stans and the "Mouse" faction (a rival hero fan group) spend more energy fighting each other than defending against outsiders. "The Mouse side went to poke Diao Chan fans, and Diao Chan stans immediately noticed they'd followed Da Qiao and Yao super-topics — instant proof they're enemy spies." It's palace drama, gaming edition.

Multiple commenters brought up the legendary combat power of the "Four Beauties" (四美) fanbase — fans of Honor of Kings' four iconic female characters. Their fighting prowess is widely acknowledged as comparable to K-pop stan armies. One user ominously recalled: "Remember when the Baji super-topic got razed to the ground by Diao Chan stans?" No wonder even the Onmyoji warriors who dared challenge the entire Honor of Kings community still chose the worst possible target.

And of course, the real winners everyone's rooting for are the ordinary players. "Keep fighting! Fight hard enough for Honor of Kings to hand out free currency and Onmyoji to give away collector skins!" "Everyone playing both games would absolutely profit from this!" The pragmatic gacha gamers couldn't care less about artistic integrity — they just want their free compensations.

As for where this all ends, the overwhelming consensus from the sidelines is simple: neither side has gone to court, so it's all theater. As one commenter perfectly summarized: "With these two, whoever takes the bait first loses." In this cross-game stan war spectacle, the audience always wins.
