compLexity set to replace yay with Rickeh - Report

Rogue member Ricardo "⁠Rickeh⁠" Mulholland is on the verge of completing a move to Complexity, according to a report from Dust2.us.

The 27-year-old will step into the shoes of Jaccob "⁠yay⁠" Whiteaker, who was sent to the bench earlier today after being a part of the active roster since mid-2017.

Multiple sources have informed Dust2.us that the Australian has already signed a contract with the North American organization as their permanent replacement for the upcoming 2019 season, as the roster lock deadline for the IEM Katowice Major closes on January 1.

Rickeh set to play for compLexity in 2019

Rickeh returned to Australia at the end of November to renew his visa, while Rogue safely secured their spot for ESL Pro League Season 9 in the relegation event after fielding Michael "⁠Uber⁠" Stapells as a stand-in.

Rogue are currently in discussion with Jesper "⁠TENZKI⁠" Plougmann as a permanent replacement after qualifying for StarSeries i-League Season 7, alongside a 9-12th place finish in the Americas Minor closed qualifier.

Despite lacklustre results for Complexity in recent times, Complexity still holds on to their Major spot for the upcoming IEM Katowice Major 2019 after achieving Legend status at the FACEIT Major London 2018 in September.

Jason Lake, CEO of Complexity, revealed on Twitter that they were in discussion with MIBR's Tarik "⁠tarik⁠" Celik, but he does not expect the 22-year-old to join his squad before the roster lock.

Complexity's roster for the upcoming Major is expected to be:

United Kingdom Rory "⁠dephh⁠" Jackson
Canada Bradley "⁠ANDROID⁠" Fodor
Canada Peter "⁠stanislaw⁠" Jarguz
United States Shahzeb "⁠ShahZaM⁠" Khan
Australia Ricardo "⁠Rickeh⁠" Mulholland

United States Jaccob "⁠yay⁠" Whiteaker (benched)

Also, if coL give low salary, imagine what SpaceS would give rofl. All tho spaceS doesnt have a roster atm, so he would join Ex-SpaceS, with no salary etc.

maybe the coL roster is on "trial" by the org, and they have until jan 1. or after the major to see if there's an improvement, OTHERWISE, they might swap out another player 😎

i never said they dropped him for no reason lmao... they probably got tired of his style and wanted someone who was just a better player. that doesn't take anything away from the fact that he was a huge factor as to why the dignitas /north teams were all good under his leadership.

Just because they were going nowhere further with him at the end of 2018 as IGL doesn't mean that they were not good under him. You're reaching super hard.

Liquid was good with taco and they got rid of him. Astralis was good with Karrigan and they got rid of him. Mouz was pretty good with styko and they got rid of him. If there's an opportunity for upgrade, or the team hasn't improved much with a player, cutting them is the right move. However, without MSL on dignitas/north, I guarantee you that there would be no development of the players that came from dignitas, nor would those players be a top 10 team consistently year after year.
