What to expect from Complexity v. G2

Complexity are hot. They are spicy. Dare I say, they're putting NA CS on top? It's been a much better showing for the American team in recent times and they now have a real chance to make a mark at a big event and in Counter-Strike 2. It will be hard, however. Today they were gifted an all-timer game from Johnny "JT" Theodosiou while Ricky "floppy" Kemery is saying that CS2 just isn't cool right now. It will be a major test for Complexity tonight, but one they should be ready for and hopefully, one where they can actually close out a map after having five match points (cough, cough, EPL).

Complexity's Conundrum

It was floppy that was the one pushing Complexity forward at ESL Pro League and at the BLAST Showdown, where the team qualified for the World Finals. This morning, he posted one of his worst games in a while and is voicing concerns with CS2. JT gave an unbelievable game, but they can't rely on him all the time, they need the rest of the cast to step up.

G2-0?

With Nikola "NiKo" Kovač still one of the best players in the world, it's always going to be difficult for Complexity to get a win. G2, despite their inconsistencies, remain one of the better teams. With Rasmus "HooXi" Nielsen at the helm, you truly never know what you're gonna get. CS2 is a different game from CS:GO and what will happen tonight is anyone's guess.

Previous Matchups

It was a brutal matchup for Complexity when they played G2 at ESL Pro League as they were five match points away from securing a 2-0 win. Complexity would later go on to lose the matchup, a devastating emotional loss for a team that could have used that win as further motivation. A revenge game for Complexity, mostly avenging themselves, is certainly on the cards for tonight.

Likely Vetoes

Vetoes match up well so we'll see teams play to their strengths, rather than their opponent's weaknesses.

Complexity ban Mirage
G2 ban Overpass
Complexity pick Anubis
G2 pick Ancient
Decider could potentially be Inferno
