Many people had doubts about Complexity before the season began on how they could perform after over a year of not playing the game competitively. Taking a break from Source, the team has overcame obstacles and proved to still be at least top six in the nation for now as they attempt to prove they still have what it takes.

The guys had a bumpy first seven weeks as they only won 6 of 13 games. As the second half of week seven began, they must of all ate their Wheaties because they finished out the season winning 9 straight games including wins over MoB, PoV, and Evil Geniuses. Since they secured the #2 seed, they now wait for either MoB or EG in Round 2.

Strengths: Chemistry. Having been a strong built team with Hanes being the most recent addition, they have great coordination with one another on site entries and map placement. Certainly capable of causing the upset, they just have to get the ball rolling.

Weaknesses: Dust2. Complexity is 0-4 on this map and they will start their first match in the Upper Bracket against either MoB or EG. Not good odds having to play a top team on your worst map. With the map being so user friendly, they will need some luck on their side.

Prediction: Fourth. They might drop to the Lower Bracket rather quickly and have to win a couple more matches to catch up but I don't think it will be enough to make it to the final.
