The Prodigies have expressed their concern about the situation surrounding their player Alvaro "consss" Remman and threaten to appeal to ESIC. They seek an independent review of the case by a third party. The organization European Pro League, however, does not recognize ESIC as a fair organization in the esports community.
Consss was banned by EPL after accusations of cheating, which were raised against him after the match with MOUZ NXT at European Pro League Season 14: Division 2. These accusations have caused controversial reactions in the community, and consss denies his guilt.
The CEO of The Prodigies, Jerome "jEROME" Coupes, expressed dissatisfaction with the lack of response and discussion from EPL regarding the decision to ban the Estonian for using cheats. He emphasized that ESIC is the only known organization dealing with integrity issues in esports, and they are ready to cooperate with them.
In response, EPL stated that they do not recognize ESIC and consider it a self-proclaimed organization:
The Prodigies are concerned about the situation surrounding their player and are threatening us with an appeal to the Esports Integrity Commission. While we always uphold high standards of integrity and professionalism in the game, we do not recognize the ESIC as a trusted and honest organization in our community. ESIC is a self-proclaimed judging organization with a questionable reputation.European Pro League
Jerome Coupes stressed the importance of the player's presumption of innocence and called for a full and transparent investigation. Consss, according to him, will be suspended from competition until the investigation is completed.
