Complexity Team Stats and Latest Results

Complexity did play a couple of matches in 2021 but both resulted in losses. They lost to Vitality and Natus Vincere at the BLAST Premier Global Final 2020, and now they are on a five-game losing skid if we count the end of the previous year. The Danish side didn’t have a lot of success at major tournaments in the past three months, so it’s understandable they dropped out for the top 10 teams in the world. Complexity lost ten of the last 17 games.

fnatic vs. Complexity Betting Preview

I am not impressed with the way these teams played lately, and I wouldn’t bet my money on the winner in this one. Betting on the winner is not recommended, especially considering fnatic is playing with a new tea member, while on the other hand, Complexity losing each of the last five matches. In situations like this, I am backing Over 2.5 maps, which is exactly what I am doing again.

The Pick: Over 2.5 Maps (-108 @GG.BET)
