JD Gaming (JDG) is a Chinese professional esports organization based in Beijing.
It has two League of Legends teams: a main roster, officially Beijing JDG Intel Esports Club,[1] that competes in the League of Legends Pro League (LPL), the top-level league for the game in China, and an academy roster named Joy Dream that competes in the League of Legends Developmental League (LDL), China's secondary league. Both teams were formed on 20 May 2017 after e-commerce company JD.com acquired the LPL spot of the QG Reapers[2] and the LSPL (now LDL) spot of Now or Never.
JD Gaming is also a Valorant's franchising partner and competing in VCT China. It had an all-female League of Legends team and an Overwatch team, both of which saw only minor success and were disbanded.[2]
