Twitter Changes!

February 27th, 2018

After 10 years on the platform, we are happy to announce that we will be retiring the @compLexityLIVE Twitter handle in favor of something a bit more direct. Starting today, you can now follow us at @compLexity on Twitter. The channel will continue feature the same great content and match coverage you’ve come to expect over the last decade, along with exciting new series such as our behind-the-scenes “compLexity: POV” series and game highlight videos! 

compLexity’s legacy extends back to a time where there was no Youtube, Facebook or Twitter. When we originally joined Twitter it was a very different era. We saw it as a mechanism to send text messages to the phones of our fans if they wanted live score updates. Thus, the name ‘compLexityLIVE.’ That era is obviously long gone and we’re very excited to offer our community a more concise handle moving forward. Thanks to @Twitter for helping us make this happen.

– Jason Lake, Founder & CEO

Stream Team Adds s0m

February 21st, 2018

For over 15 years our philosophy has always been that of cultivating talent and building long-term relationships. During that time it has proved successful both in-game, as well as behind the scenes.

In the spirit of tradition we are proud to announce the newest member of our team, CS:GO prodigy Sam “s0m” Oh. The 15 year old CS:GO player has been working tirelessly in Rank S, pugs and on Twitch to develop his skill and brand, and we are excited to help him further along on his journey to become an elite player in the scene.

s0m was introduced to CS:GO by several of his friends in 2014. The game instantly connected with him and quickly turned into a passion. Honing his skills with hours and hours of practice, he became one of the top raw talents in the North American scene, a fierce competitor in Rank S and a terrific rifler. The future for s0m looks bright and we are excited to have him with us!

Be sure to give s0m the proper compLexity Gaming welcome when he starts his stream this afternoon and show him your support on Twitter.

Additions to coL.cs

January 30th, 2018

Complexity prides itself on providing the best possible atmosphere for our professional players, taking whatever steps necessary to ensure good results with long-term vision. That is why we are proud today to announce three key additions to our CS:GO squad.

First and foremost, with the departure of Alec “Slemmy” White into retirement, the void of the in-game leader position will be filled by North American veteran Pujan “FNS” Mehta. As a former member of mouseSpaz, TSM and CLG, FNS gathered experiences on the biggest stages CS:GO has to offer, including Majors, ESL Pro League, and ELEAGUE. He adds veteran leadership to the young and hungry coL.cs roster.

Not only are we adding an important piece to the roster itself, we are upgrading the support structure surrounding the team. Ron “Rambo” Kim and Andrew “Professor_Chaos” Heintz will take over the coach and analyst role respectively. With Rambo we have a Counter-Strike legend and former Complexity star, while Professor_Chaos, a CS:GO veteran, makes his debut sporting the red and black. Both have already begun working with the team, as the new CS:GO season will start in the next few weeks with Pro League and other important tournaments on the horizon.

Our current coL.cs roster:

Coach/Analyst

Manager

Give all three a warm Complexity family welcome on Twitter and stay tuned for the upcoming matches in the StarLadder Closed Qualifiers, as well as the new ESL Pro League season.
