In July 2020, Dominique announced that they will not compete at Evo amid allegations against tournament co-founder, Joey “MrWizard” Cuellar.

”I can not in good conscience participate in an event with the allegations of one the primary hosts of said event. It just doesn’t sit right with me,” he said.

In 2018, SonicFox came out as gay in a speech accepting the award for Best Esports Player at The Game Awards.

”I’m gay, I’m black, a furry, pretty much everything a Republican hates,” SonicFox said. ”And the best esports player of the year, I guess!”

”The more fame that I have, the more I realize, why should I care what people think about me when I can just be me?” Dominique told ESPN after the event.

In September 2019, they came out on Twitter as non-binary, a term people use to describe genders that don’t fall into one of these two categories, female or male.

”The more I reflect on my pass and likes, the more this makes sense to me,” McLean tweeted. They also said: ”With that being said, I’m coming out as a Non-Binary Man! And I’ve always thought of myself as 50% masc and 50% feminine.”
