coL.CR Adds Adrian Piedra

April 9th, 2018

Today compLexity is proud to reveal the next piece to our Clash Royale roster with the signing of Adrian Piedra!

Adrian Piedra is a Clash Royale pro from Villahermosa Tabasco, Mexico. He began playing Clash Royale during the game’s release when his best friend introduced him to it. Adrian played regularly while he overcame a back injury, which gave him the time required to play at a competitive level. He is considered one of the best players in the game, and has dominated competitions in Latin America as well as around the world. Adrian’s list of accomplishments include 2nd Place CCGS LATAM Spring Season, 1st Place CCGS LATAM Fall Season, 5-8th Place CCGS World Finals, 5th Place King’s Cup, and is a member of the Mexican National Team.

“I am very excited to have Adrian Piedra as the second pillar of compLexity’s Clash Royale team. Adrian is a unique talent, whose passion for the game is infectious. His drive to succeed is matched by an equal drive to share success with his teammates, and he is a player I look forward to sharing many celebrations with in the future. Pairing Adrian and Colton together, both elite players with existing chemistry, is also very exciting. This elite core will instantly elevate future players we add to our team. With Adrian on board, compLexity further establishes that we are not just here to participate. We are here to win, and to win with a team that compLexity fans will be proud to cheer for.”

– Matt Rutledge, Director of Mobile Gaming

Stream Team Adds Justine

April 5th, 2018

Today the compLexity Gaming family is honored to add it’s most recent member – Justine “Justine” Wu.

The young streamer has been a rising star in Hearthstone since her first venture into the game only a short time ago. Consistent streams and high ladder performances, coupled with her masterful piloting of the Combo Priest deck, became her trademarks in the community . Those traits paired with a relaxed attitude and the desire to improve every single day make her a unique competitor in this space. Starting the game as a Free-2-Play player, Justine proceeded to grind all the way to the top with limited resources and an unrivaled determination. Racking up HCT points left, right and center, she’s on the verge of qualifying for the North American prelims in her first try this year, a feat that few women before her have accomplished!

“I am very happy to have Justine on board. All of our players respect and believe in her, which is something I personally love to see. This team was built and fostered on the foundation of a strong team unity and camaraderie – I am more than certain that Justine fits right in!”

– Sören “Fantasy” Vendsahm, Assistant General Manager

Now it’s time for the next step in her young career – being a part of a professional organization with the guidance of the best players in the world! The entire compLexity family is looking forward to walking the path to glory alongside Justine, from HCT Prelims to HCT Tour stops down the line.

Give the newest compLexity member a warm welcome on Twitter as well as on her next stream.

Welcome, Justine!

Team-Based Competition Comes to the World’s Largest Mobile Esports Competition with the Clash Royale League

April 3rd, 2018

Cloud9, Team SoloMid, Tribe Gaming, Immortals, NRG, Complexity, 100 Thieves and Counter Logic Gaming to Represent the CRL North American League and Build Rosters for 2018 Competition

Every Player in the World Given the Chance to Be Recruited by a Pro Team, Advance to the World Finals Event and Compete for Their Share of the $1M Up for Grabs

Helsinki – April 3, 2018 – Supercell, the developers of Clash Royale, welcome eight of North America’s top esports organizations, Cloud9 Esports, Team SoloMid, Tribe Gaming, Immortals, NRG, Complexity, 100 Thieves and Counter Logic Gaming, to the Clash Royale League (CRL), the all-new team-based esports league for the world’s best players. Clash Royale made history in 2017 with its inaugural competition which crowned sergioramos:) from Mexico as the best player in the world. This year, Supercell offered players the chance to be signed by one of these elite pro teams through an in-game event called the Clash Royale League Challenge. Twenty five million players competed to qualify for the CRL in 2018, and just under 7,000 players from 113 different countries made it to the next round. In the coming months, pro teams will create their rosters and prepare to compete for their spot in the World Finals event that will take place later this year, as well as their share of the $1 Million.

The eight teams representing North America in the CRL are Cloud9, Team SoloMid, Tribe Gaming, Immortals, NRG, Complexity, 100 Thieves and Counter Logic Gaming. Each of these teams will be building a roster for their Clash Royale team from the pool of players that completed the in-game Clash Royale League Challenge. The European region will be represented by FNATIC, Misfits, SK Gaming, G2 Esports, Team Liquid, Team Queso, Team Dignitas and Allegiance. Mainland China will be represented by EDG.M, GO, JDG, LGD, NOVA, OP, SNAKE, WE and Asia will be represented by OGN Entus, Sandbox, Kingzone, OP.GG, GameWith, PONOS Sports, DetonatioN Gaming, FAV Gaming, AHQ ESPORTS CLUB, KIX, Chaostheroy and Bren Esports. The teams representing the Latin American region of the CRL will be announced at a later date.

“It’s tremendous how quickly Clash Royale revealed itself to be the next big esport and we are impressed with Supercell’s thoughtful steps to build an exciting global league,” said Jack Etienne, owner of Cloud9. “It’s also incredible that the Clash Royale League gives every single player the opportunity to go pro, giving us the opportunity to draft new and upcoming talent. We’ll be watching to see who rises to the top over the next few months of competitive play and can’t wait to put our team together and compete for a spot at the World Finals.”

Reflecting the game’s global player base, the CRL gives the top players and teams from around the world an opportunity to compete for prizes and glory. Two CRL regions, Mainland China and Asia (which includes all Asian countries other than China), will have a Spring Season which runs from March 23-Jun 3 in China, and April 27 – July 14 in Asia. Other regions in the world will begin competing with the Fall Season in August, leading up to a World Finals event which will take place in Winter 2018. Along with the CRL, a new tournament format will be introduced that will make the competitions more fun to watch, with an emphasis on finding the best team as opposed to individual player. Each of the CRL regions will be comprised of 4-12 teams, with 4-6 players per team. Top teams from each of the regions will advance to the World Finals.

“The level of enthusiasm we’ve seen from the most respected esports teams in the world is as humbling as it is exciting, and we’re looking forward to supporting them in order to grow the Clash Royale esports ecosystem for our players,” said Tim Ebner, who oversees esports at Supercell. “Staying true to the Supercell vision of making games everyone can enjoy for years and years, the Clash Royale League will

continue to offer as many players as possible an open path to competing at the highest level.”

“Having seen the growth of Clash Royale first hand since its launch, I couldn’t be more thrilled about the unveiling of the Clash Royale League,” said Patrick “Chief Pat” Carney, CEO of Tribe Gaming. “At Tribe, we’re excited to be welcoming in a number of iconic esports organizations into the Clash Royale ecosystem, and we look forward to doing battle with them in each and every arena.”

Clash Royale is a real-time multiplayer game starring the Royales, your favorite Clash characters, and much, much more. In the game, players collect and upgrade dozens of cards featuring the Clash of Clans troops, spells and defenses Clash players know and love, as well as the Royales: Princes, Knights, Baby Dragons and more. Players must knock the enemy King and Princesses from their towers to defeat their opponents and win Trophies, Crowns and glory in the Arena. Players are able to form a Clan to share cards and build their very own battle community and lead the Clash Royale Family to victory!

Today compLexity is happy to announce our venture into a rising esport title and the addition of a very talented player. We are proud to reveal that we are entering Clash Royale, with the signing of Colton “Coltonw83” Wall!

Colton began playing Clash Royale roughly one month after the game was released while in his senior year of high school in the Dallas, Texas area. He then moved to California where he decided to attend the King’s Cup tournament where he ended up placing 2nd, taking home $10,000. Since then he has been playing, streaming, coaching, and making Clash Royale videos full time. Colton’s accomplishments include 2nd Place Kings Cup, CRNAO Finalist, 1st Place Gamergy Masters, Top-10 CCGS NA, 1st Place CCGS Invitational, Top-16 CCGS World Final, and Team USA Captain.

“Colton is a player who not only embodies our organizational values of professionalism and class, but also possesses the elite competitive talent and work ethic that our Clash Royale team will become known for. With scouting systems, practice regimens, and state-of-the-art analysis, Complexity Clash Royale will set the standard for hard work and preparation. Having worked with Colton in the past, I know that he will not only thrive in our system, but will be a player who continually raises the bar for what is possible in this game, and will selflessly help his teammates do the same. His intensity and commitment to excellence is second to none. I’m very excited to have him on my team again, and to build a championship-caliber environment alongside him.”
