In China, an unusual challenge for a groom was a match of Valorant: before heading to the wedding ceremony together with the bride, he had to defeat her in the popular tactical shooter by Riot Games.
A video of the unusual wedding challenge appeared on Instagram* and quickly went viral across social media. The footage shows the groom playing against his bride-to-be, with the outcome of the match determining whether he can take her to the ceremony.
Such a challenge is rooted in a Chinese wedding tradition. By custom, the groom and his groomsmen must complete a series of tasks prepared for them by the bride and her bridesmaids. Usually, these are various games and challenges, but in this case, the couple decided to incorporate video games into the program.
The choice of Valorant was quite natural: according to reports, both newlyweds enjoy spending time playing this shooter.
