compLexity release Uber

Michael "Uber" Stapells has announced that he is no longer part of compLexity's active roster.

In a Twitlonger post, Michael "⁠Uber⁠" Stapells revealed that the team have had problems "for a few months now", adding that the situation has only got worse over time.

The Canadian player had been on compLexity's books since August, when he was recruited by the North American organisation to replace Joshua "⁠sancz⁠" Ballenger.


Uber leaves compLexity 

During this period, the team under-performed in offline competitions, finishing 7th-8th at Northern Arena Montreal and 13th-16th at the recent Dreamhack Masters Las Vegas event, where they won just nine rounds in total. To make matters worse, things are not looking bright for them in the ESL Pro League, in which they currently sit in ninth place, with a 1-9 record. 

In a statement, compLexity added that they "will be holding tryouts over the next few weeks" to determine Uber's replacement. Their roster currently looks as follows:

United Kingdom Rory "⁠dephh⁠" Jackson
United States Derek "⁠desi⁠" Branchen
Canada Bradley "⁠ANDROID⁠" Fodor
United Kingdom Kia "⁠Surreal⁠" Man

United States Matt "⁠Warden⁠" Dickens (coach)

well of course it's not going to work, you have surreal that's an awper with more "downs" than ups, whenever he has an up he's just mediocre, dephh who's underperforming like fuck and boosted his stats against the depths of UK, desi, the meth head pugster that goes in 20 min arguements over 20$ and android who's the only half decent player that's probably having to lead so those other cunts start performing. - entire team + rebuild.

Acting as if Uber is the only problem coL has. This entire roster is weak compared to what they could get. Unfortunately coL doesn't really believe in CS (or any game for that matter) being a career path and won't pay for the players they really need.
