Noxious Joins the Competition

November 29th, 2014

by Sören ‘Fantasy’ Vendsahm

It’s not all too often that the popular compLexity Gaming featured streamer Noxious is entering a competitive competition. Last time this occurred was all the way in China for WCA, as he was invited to compete in the big Hearthstone festivities. Now he will add another tournament to his resume, as Noxious received an invite for the second week of the ESL Legendary Series.

The first week in that competition ended disappointingly for compLexity’s young Hearthstone squad. Newest player Alchemixt was able to qualify by being one of the most consistent players throughout the entire preseason of ESL competitions, but couldn’t get past the first hurdle when the spotlight was on. With some learning experience and an inherent randomness in the new format over at ESL Legendary Series, Alchemixt found himself in bad matchups several times, ultimately conceding a loss to Romanian tournament standout Rdu.

Now the ball is in Noxious’ corner to turn the momentum for the black-red brand around. As one of four invited players, the Hearthstone enthusiast leaves his comfort zone of the more casual approach to the game. Alongside the compLexity player is fellow popular streamer and TempoStorm member Reckful, as well as known North American tournament veterans Dart and IHU’s own Dtwo. They will compete with the returning Week 1 champion Chakki and Week 1 runner-up pinpingho, as well as the two players making it through the Challenger tournament. Interestingly enough both come from the United Kingdom this time with BlizzCon EU Regional participant Max and fellow Brit Frase trying out their luck against the Yanks.

Catch the action on the official ESL stream over at twitch.tv/esl_hearthstone starting at 6 PM CET / 12 PM EST where Noxious will be fighting off competitors left and right to become a champion.

Dog DreamHack Bound

November 27th, 2014

by Sören ‘Fantasy’ Vendsahm

DreamHack Winter 2014 is right around the corner and with it a massive Hearthstone Championship with $25,000 on the line. 32 of the best players from North America and Europe will embark towards the adventurous journey that Jönköping, Sweden has in store for them. Included in those 32 players is compLexity’s very own David ‘Dog’ Caero.

The North American player couldn’t secure a direct invitation against stiff competition in that category, but he was able to make a run in the qualifiers. Beating out 527 fellow Hearthstone players, Dog was able to bite down on several opponents, leading him straight into the prestigious competition at the Elmia.

The beloved streamer and high legend player has boarded the plane for his second trip to Europe in his tenure with compLexity Gaming. In October his destination was Krefeld, Germany for the second iteration of the SeatStory Cup in the TakeTV studios, now the Texas native will have to get accustomed with the stiff and cold Swedish winter. Despite the cold weather outside, the Hearthstone competition will heat up beginning today. Accomplished players including all the previous DreamHack Champions Thalai, Gaara, ThijsNL and Rdu will be present, just like SeatStory Cup Champion Savjz, BlizzCon World Champion Firebat, IEM Shengzhen winner Amaz and Viagame House Cup Champion Kolento. All of them and several other top-notch player and beloved personalities will heat up the Inn with elite Hearthstone action.

In Group C the Texas boy will have stiff competition right from the get-go, facing Ukrainian star and new Team Liquid member Neirea in the opener. Other opponents in the group include WEC Champion TidesofTimes, TempoStorm captain Reynad, Finnish superstar Savjz and new myInsanity member Mirarri. With that list he is not only facing strong opponents all around, but also has the top 2 of SeatStory Cup blocking his path to the Quarterfinals of DreamHack Winter 2014.

The Hearthstone action will start on Thursday, November, 27th with Group A and Group B. Dog will enter the competition one day later on November, 28th with all of his group stage matches. The special thing about these groups is, that they are a mini tournament inside the overall Hearthstone Championship event. The eight contestants will enter a Double Elimination bracket to determine who’s moving on to the Championship Bracket on Saturday. The big conclusion with the Grand Finals is scheduled for November, 29th when the field of 32 hopefuls will be cut down significantly and only the last two players will stand a chance to hold up the check and the trophy in the DreamArena. Will Dog only bark or does he bite and avenge the mediocre LAN record so far? DreamHack will provide all the answers when their partner Viagame brings you all the action from the virtual table in the crowded Inn.

Matches will be streamed live on Viagame.

Match Preview: coL.White vs Curse Academy and coL.Black vs Final Five

November 21st, 2014

By Jorge Calderon – @CaldoLoL

Round 2 of the 2015 NA Spring Expansion Tournament includes both of the coL squads, coL.White and coL.Black. As the tournament bracket was finalized, coL.Black was able to get a first round bye due to having 3 out of the 5 players which participated in the 2015 Spring Promotion Tournament. The second team, coL.White, went through the open bracket and qualified by being a top Ranked 5v5 team (5th place) on the Challenger Leaderboard. After acquiring their spot in the expansion tournament coL.White was able to advance on to round 2 by taking down Monstar Kittenz in a best of 3 where they finished off 2-1. Now coL.White’s focus turns to Curse Academy for the upcoming round of the event.

coL.White vs Curse Academy

Curse Academy has been a team that is constantly on the edge, almost making it over into the LCS. However, coL.White are looking to stop their journey and attempt to claim their spot in round 3. Curse Academy have gone through a number of changes this year; Impactful was on Curse Academy’s roster as the starting AD-Carry for about 4 months before joining coL.White and filling the same role. Now, Curse Academy’s roster consists of 3 players who were previously on the main roster for Team Curse; Saintvicious, Bunny FuFuu, and Cop (Keane is a Sub for Team Curse). One thing to definitely look out for is the amount of risky plays that may come out of the Curse Academy players. They are confident in their play and are unafraid to take chances.

The player that I would keep an eye on would be Saint, simply because of his experience as a veteran in League of Legends. He has been in the League of Legends scene for a while, playing on teams such as Counter Logic Gaming, Team Curse, and was one of the original members of Team Solomid. He has a vast amount of knowledge and wisdom to give to the other four players. Although he was known as “Smitevicious” because of his timing on smiting objectives, he has improved a substantial amount and is definitely a player to look out for.

coL.Black vs Final Five

Moving on to round 2, this will be coL.Black’s first match in the tournament. Final Five is a team that placed 9th on the NA Ranked 5’s Ladder in order to qualify for the 2015 NA Spring Expansion Tournament. The team was built around Rhux shortly after he left Team Coast. The players on the roster include Rhux (Top), ShorterACE (Jungle), Gate (Mid), Prototype (AD-Carry), and Rule18 (Support). The players on Final Five are all high ELO players that have fought hard throughout the ranked 5’s ladder. Last week, Final Five played against Zenith eSports in Round 1 where they successfully managed to defeat them 2-1. Now they have their eyes set upon coL.Black. coL.Black are not a team to be taken lightly, however, due to LCS experience.

The player on Final Five to lookout for is definitely Rhux. He has the most competitive experience out of all the players on Final Five. He has played for Curse Academy, Team Curse, and Team Coast prior to Final Five. Throughout his competitive career, he has alternated being a Top and Support player. He was the Support for Team Curse during the 2013 NA Spring Split before being replaced by Edward from Gambit. Afterwards, he returned to Curse Academy and went back to the top lane, where he feels most comfortable.

Both of the coL teams are practicing hard and analyzing their opponent’s gameplay, as well as their own. The team that will struggle more will be coL.White. Their match against Curse Academy will be a difficult Best of 3 series for them. With good preparation and a good mindset, I believe the coL.White squad can be victorious against Curse Academy. The road for coL.Black is quite the opposite. They have superior experience and I believe the coL.Black squad is more skilled in their individual roles, as well as in their team coordination and communication.

Tune in and support both of the coL squads as they look to advance onto Round 3, which will be live in the studio. You can tune in on November 22nd at 11 A.M. PST over at lolesports.com to watch Round 2 of the 2015 NA Spring Expansion Tournament.

Alchemixt Becomes Legendary

November 21st, 2014

by Sören ‘Fantasy’ Vendsahm

DreamHack is not the only big event on the horizon for the Hearthstone scene. The North American ESL branch is also increasing their commitment towards the game and are launching the Legendary Series this weekend. For the next 12 Saturdays, top competition will square off for valuable points to lead them straight to the studio in Burbank, California for the Grand Finals event.

The players were determined by a mix of invites, qualifiers, and returning stars, so the field of competition will be fresh week in and week out. For the first event two big qualifiers were launched, one open for the public and the other one only open for the best players from the Preseason Cups. Before the Legendary Series was even announced, ESL ran weekly cups and a King of the Hill event to get used to the new virtual card game of Blizzard. To award the players that showed up every week to play, a special Preseason Cup Final.

compLexity’s own Alchemixt was invited to participate in it due to his good ladder seeding, and he was unstoppable. With a clean 3-0 sweep over Luffy and a 3-1 win over zRusher, Alchemixt had already secured himself the top 2 position in the Preseason Cup Finals and therefore a berth in the first week of the Legendary Series.

Joining him from the Preseason event is gcttirth. These two and the two qualifying players from the open tournament, pinpingho and Supernova, will square off with the four invited players battle for supremacy.

These invites are designed to go out to popular players and known streaming personalities with competitive experience. For the opening week none other than TempoStorm captain Reynad, DreamHack Summer 2014 Champion Rdu, former NESL King of the Hill Champ Chakki and Hosty as one of the best NESL ladder players in recent history. They will all try to get the majority of the ladder points to come to a great start into the newly implemented ESL Legendary Series.

For Alchemixt it will be the first major tournament representing the compLexity brand. His strong record online, his experience against the best players in the world and his recent domination of the Preseason Cup make him one of the front-runners to not only be a major factor in the opening week, but also be one of the returning players for next week.

Preview: coL.White vs Monstar Kittenz – NA Spring Expansion Tournament

November 14th, 2014

By Jorge Calderon – @coL_Caldo

Round 1 of the North American Spring Expansion Tournament draws near, and coL.White is set to face off against Monstar Kittenz. For those that do not know, coL.White is comprised of Westrice, Kez, Goldenglue, Impactful, and Lohpally. Their opponents are the Number 8 ranked 5v5 team who are all new to the competitive League of Legends scene. Although they are new to the competitive scene, they are all solid players who should not be underestimated.

One interesting thing about Monstar Kittenz is their AD-Carry Hoofspark; he enjoys playing a lot of Draven and is 5-2 with him throughout the ranked ladder. In addition, their top laner, Big ol Ron, prefers to play Irelia in the top lane, much like Westrice. Throughout their journey to join the expansion tournament, they have been relatively unsuccessful in defeating some of the top challenger teams including Coast and coL.White. In fact, their ranked 5v5 game against coL.White ended up in a 28-11 win in favor of coL.White at 28 minutes. In that game, Westrice went completely hard on Bog ol Ron and ended up leaving him 0/10/1 by the end of the match.

If coL.White are able to take down Monstar Kittenz in this Best of 3, they will advance to the second round to face off against Curse Academy. For now however, they have their eyes set upon their current enemies on the Rift. Overall, I believe coL.White will be able to pull off a clean 2-0 sweep purely based on experience and communication.

Be sure to tune in at 11 AM PST on Saturday, November 15th over at lolesports.com. 

Playoffs Ahead For coL.DOTA

November 12th, 2014

by Sören ‘Fantasy’ Vendsahm

As the bootcamp in sunny California draws closer to the end, coL.DOTA is also entering the home stretch in several big online competitions. Not only has the team managed to steamroll the competition in the North American Summit 2 qualifier to claim the first seed, they’ve also advanced in the Battle of America tournament. After the disappointing results during the ASUS ROG DreamLeague North American group this is a confidence boost at an opportune time.

If the team manages to build off that momentum, reaching the intimate environment of The Summit 2 shouldn’t be too much. Overall the team improved and played well for the majority of their matches, despite the setback with team member Andrew ‘Riser’ Bronze stepping down due to health issues. Bloody Nine flew to the team house straight away and has been a serviceable replacement for large parts. With his help the team coasted to the first place in The Summit 2 North American group and a second place finish their Battle of America group. Both times the team only had to concede a total of two maps to clinch the first spot, finishing their The Summit 2 group with 9-2 and their Battle of America group with 12-2.

Now the playoffs call, especially in the all important The Summit tournament. Four teams remain in the chase for only one ticket to the event. Swindlemelonzz and his team will first go up against Team Leviathan in a match ripe for revenge. During the group play coL suffered a bitter and surprising upset loss against their North American team foes. Now they meet again in a match with much higher stakes, a perfect opportunity to settle the score.

The forecast of this match would predict a compLexity Gaming win, given their flawless record against Leviathan during the Battle of America event. Both teams squared off in the same group with coL winning all four of the games. It looks like it’s all set for another match between these two teams with the Winner Bracket Finals as a reward for the victor. In that match it will be either NaVi.US or Peruvian pride Not Today waiting. The first day starts today as compLexity.Dota embarks on the journey all the way to The Summit of the Dota world.

As the online portion of the Summit draws to a close, so too does coL.DOTA’s time on the West Coast. After this week the members will travel back to their respective homes, at least for a short while. The competition however, will only be on hold for a couple days. Tough challenges in Dota Pit Season 2, I-League, Battle of America playoffs and Starladder are ahead.

Especially the Dota Pit Season 2 event has led to coL.DOTA emerging as a serious contender in the Dota scene, fighting off the strongest of opponents. At the moment the team under the black and red banner is on it’s way to a third place finish in a group including top tier teams like Evil Geniuses, Virtus.Pro, Team Tinker, Alliance and 4ASC. The real statement win for Swindlemelonzz and his team in their young history came just in this event, when they defeated their nemesis EG with 2-0 sweep. After that colossal victory the two games left to be played are against former HoN opponents Loda and Akke with their Alliance team and against SingSing and his Team Tinker. Both won’t be easy, but coL.DOTA has improved and rose to the occasion several times – everything is possible.

Tune in to The Summit playoffs as coL.DOTA takes on Leviathan at 3:30PM EST (2130 CET).

coL.Hearthstone Welcomes Alchemixt

November 7th, 2014

With the Hearthstone scene growing and currently celebrating the first ever World Champions, compLexity Gaming is intensifying its commitment with the virtual card game hit of Blizzard. We are happy to announce that North American star Dan ‘Alchemixt’ Walton joins the growing team of coL.Hearthstone.

After a short hiatus from the big stage of Hearthstone, the established North American player is poised and motivated to get back in the saddle and on top of the mountain. In the past, Alchemixt has proven his skill in NA online cups like the NESL weekly cups or against the best of the best to qualify for WEC. The trip to China for the WEC event was followed by yet another trip to the east for WCA as one of the invited players to attend.

With a vast and rich history in Magic: The Gathering and a successful start in Hearthstone, Alchemixt serves as a great addition to the already stacked competitive team of compLexity Gaming with Dog and SjoW. Just like those two, Alchemixt will get back into streaming on Twitch and will start competing in tournaments wearing the black and red with pride.

“As we tried to build a well-rounded and competitive Hearthstone team, Alchemixt was a perfect fit.”, stated Hearthstone Team Manager Sören ‘Fantasy’ Vendsahm. “His experience both online and offline and the commitment to compete are not only great traits for him as a player, but they also embody the philosophy of compLexity Gaming.”

Alchemixt’s first big test under the compLexity banner will be this weekend as he tries to secure a spot for the DreamHack Winter 2014 in Jönköping, Sweden. He and the rest of the squad will square off against more than 250 opponents in the attempt to clinch one of the eight spots leading to the $25,000 USD tournament.

Show your support for the newest member of the compLexity family by tuning in to his stream, following him on Twitter or checking out his great video series on Hearthstone decks.

We also had the pleasure of sitting down with Dan prior to this announcement.

Hello Alchemixt, thanks a lot for taking the time for this interview with us as the newest member of compLexity Gaming.Hearthstone. How would you introduce yourself?

Well, my name is Dan Walton or otherwise known as Alchemixt in the Hearthstone world. I have been playing Hearthstone since the beta and have had some good success this far. I previously played a lot of Magic The Gathering before I committed myself to Hearthstone.

You mentioned the history in Magic, how would you compare the two games?

The games are obviously different but I think the general card game mindset is the same. I knew going into this game that you can’t win them all because that is just the nature of cards. Also, skills like adapting to the meta-game, evaluating cards, and play-testing are all similar. Consistency is key.

Seems like a very good attitude to have. How successful were you in Magic?

I was decent in Magic. I never played in a Pro Tour but I like to think that is because I rarely played in any of the qualifiers 🙂 I have had a few Starcity Games Top8 in multiple formats, a couple Grand Prix Day 2 appearances, and many many local tournament wins.

With those accomplishments, what prompted the switch to Hearthstone in the end?

Basically, I love playing Magic with my friends and in person traveling to events. However, their online client is not very good or fun. I recently moved and because of that all of my friends who I played Magic with are no longer near me. I found Hearthstone and decided if I was going to play a card game online then I would much rather play Hearthstone instead.

Good point, enough with Magic for now. Let’s switch to Hearthstone completely then. You’ve been a veteran in the North American scene from the early days, but recently had a little diminished presence. What was the reason for that?

First reason that it may seem like I have fallen a little off the map is because once I joined Team Curse I was unable to stream on Twitch.TV. Unfortunately for myself I left Twitch right as I was starting to get some decent viewer counts (by my standards anyways).

Once on Curse I still had some good success including probably my most important tournaments being the WEC NA Regional Qualifier where I qualified for WEC. As well as participating in WCA and making top 16 through a pretty tough group in my opinion. I also won the DKMR weekly invitational which I know only a few people have done.

Once I decided to leave Team Curse in order to stream again on Twitch and not ” disappear” I took a couple weeks off (and by off I mean only 3 hours of Hearthstone a day and not 10) to figure out how I wanted to move forward in Hearthstone

Now that decision for the future is compLexity Gaming. What was the major factor to join this organization?

Well I started by asking around to see which teams were recruiting and who may be interested in me. I talk with a couple other teams and the biggest difference between those teams and complexity if the management.

My very first day talking with you guys you spent over an hour with me which actually means a lot especially when compared to the time other teams often spend.

I also knew Complexity was a great organization just by reputation and I also am acquainted with Dog and SjoW who I both think are great players and people. I also met Noxious at WCA and we got along quite well. Seemed like a great fit for me 🙂

Many good reasons it seems. In Hearthstone having a team is still a rather abstract concept. What does it mean for you as a player to have good teammates surrounding you – especially since you also have the great experience from your DKMR days?

Being on a team in Hearthstone has many good benefits. The first is just having  people who you can bounce ideas off of or practice with if you need to.

Having an organization behind you is also very important. A team can have a big influence on being invited to large tournaments and events. Also, it adds extra motivation for me personally knowing that I am not solo and I am actually representing a team. In a sense it gives me a reason to keep playing, trying to improve, and not slack off.

Plus who doesn’t want Jerseys and T-shirts 🙂

With that new found and hopefully persistent motivation. What are your goals in Hearthstone now?

My main and probably most important goal is to start a consistent streaming schedule. I want to stream 4-5 days of the week for a decent amount of time. Unfortunately right as I left Curse and was allowed to stream on Twitch again my 10 year old computer decided to give up on me.

However, I just bought an entire new computer set-up with new monitors,  camera, microphone, audio, and everything I need. Once that arrives I will start my streaming.

I would also like to start participating in more tournaments again and not just big invite tournaments like the China ones. Even just the weekly ESL cups. I actually played in one last night and did well.

Alright, then let’s talk a little bit more about the game you will be competing in. The actual game. What are your thoughts of the state Hearthstone is in?

I actually think Hearthstone is in a pretty decent spot right now. It is a little infested with Hunters and Undertakers at the moment it seems. However, that is something you can try to meta-game against. In my opinion there have been much worse meta-games in the past before the changing of certain cards. Also, Warrior and Hunter are some of my favorite classes and both are doing really well currently.

As far as tournaments go and what not, it seems Hearthstone is still going with a mix of invite/qualified players for events which I think is reasonable.

I just wish they wouldn’t use Gosugamers rankings as a benchmark for invited players 😛 (yes i said this even when I was top 16 for like 3 months straight).

What would you prefer to determine invites then?

Well popular streamers will always have invited spots because it just makes sense fromt the organizers perspective to have people who will bring in viewers. Other than that just look at past tournaments, ladder rankings, and who has done well in the past tournament if this is a repeat of a tournament run before.

I can be top 10 Gosugamers and have a bad month and scroll down ti 100. Someone can top 8 1 prismata cup and have literally no other results and be place top 20 and stay there for months even if they never play

That actually happened and I know other pro players who share the same thoughts as myself and actually have an even stronger stance.

Top 20 will be pretty accurate for the most part because those people are usually doing consistently well. Beyond that though it is really random in my opinion. Also, they pick and choose which events they want to count as well. As we all know not all events are even in the same format.

Speaking about formats of tournaments. There has been plenty of discussions about the “perfect” Hearthstone format. One which side are you in those arguments?

Personally I prefer bo5 or bo7 with 1 ban class. winner stays same deck. Once a class loses it’s eliminated and it allows for someone to really prepare and make a strategy that is different than what you might see on the ladder. I think that by doing this you also remove a lot of the “luck” or variance factor that would come up in a bo3 blind pick. I have heard some other formats that could also be good but so far this one is my favorite.

Double or Single Elimination? And what is your opinion about Swiss?

For a large open bracket tournament I prefer swiss, but if not, I prefer double-elimination. The tournament format that I stated is more used to smaller tournaments or showmatches because those will take a long time to play through.

Okay, I think we touched on pretty much every pressing issue in Hearthstone at the moment. Let’s wrap it up with some “quick fire” questions to get to know your preferences on various issues swift, quick and in a hurry.

The most debated question right away – Control or Aggro?

Aggro

Favorite Legendary?

King Mukla

Best Card in the entire game?

Gadgetzan Auctioneer

Most underestimated/underappreciated card?

Arcane Golem most underappreciated. Needs more love!

Most annoying thing in Hearthstone?

Unanswered Undertaker or Innervate.

Best greeting?

Hunter, not close. Greetings, Traveler!

Favorite streamer?

I watch so many streams its hard to say. TidesofTime or Savjz probably.

Best player at the moment?

Kolento, hard to argue with his recent success in tournaments.

Who will win BlizzCon?

Strifecro, but I am rooting for Dtwo.

Favorite deck at the moment?

Warrior Control has always been my favorite, I know it contradicts everything I said about loving aggro! #2-5 are all aggro decks :0

Any shoutouts you want to get off your chest?

Just a shoutout to my new teammates Dog, SjoW, and Noxious. also shout out to my former teammate from way back on DKMR and now known as IHearthU DTwo and hope he does well at blizzcon

Alright, thanks again and good luck wearing the red and black in the future!
