The scandal surrounding professional player Ava “florescent” Eugene continues. After Riot Games launched an investigation into the allegations, florescent's former Shopify Rebellion Gold teammates released a joint statement expressing support for the girls involved.

Shopify Rebellion Gold statement
As a reminder, from November 2023 to December 2024, florescent played for Shopify Rebellion , where he won the Game Changers Championship twice in 2023 and 2024. The current members of Shopify Rebellion Gold have been observing the situation with their former teammate and released a joint statement today. In it, they say that although they are friends with florescent, the player's actions are simply unacceptable.

The five of us are currently at a bootcamp together and have spent most of the last few days reading and re-reading the screenshots and stories of the victims. Flor was our teammate for two years, and we all considered her a friend. But too often in this environment, friends don't hold each other accountable. Flor's behavior was unacceptable, regardless of whether any more evidence or stories came to light. We were shocked by the conversations that were made public.
Also, the current Shopify Rebellion Gold players have stated that they support all victims and believe their evidence.

Victims, we believe you and our thoughts are with you during this difficult time. I am sure that many of you, like us, are disappointed and feel betrayed by the man we all looked up to. But first and foremost, we need to support the victims (in this extremely difficult time) before we even think about how this affects something as small as the eSports video game scene.
