New compLexity 1.6 team announced

23-7-2009 12:11

For the first time in the Jason Lake saga, compLexity will we represented by a Canadian team.

compLexity was one of the most successful and popular teams before they turned to CS:S. After they returned to 1.6 they have yet to reach the same glory and success, but perhaps their latest addition will turn things around?

compLexity states:

Today The Syndicate is happy to announce a big change in our active roster. First and foremost, for the first time in our history we are honored to be represented by a Canadian lineup, formerly Sway Gaming, now known as compLexity Canada or coL.ca. Over the years our large and fiercely loyal Canadian fanbase has continually asked why we haven't fielded a squad to compete at WCG Canada. This year, when the opportunity arose to obtain what we feel is the best squad in the region, we made the move.

The compLexity.ca starting 5 will be the following:

Armeen 'a2z' Toussi
Wilson Ryan "ryennn" Chen
Dave "heller" Marentette
Matt "adr" Caverly
Pedro "YaYooo-" Morim

The pickup hasn’t been meet with a lot of joy and enthusiasm by the Canadian and North American community. The skeptics accuse the former Sway Gaming team of being immatture and professionel and question if they have the needed skills to compete at the very best level.

The team will replace the former winners of the The Creative Complexity Challenge, held earlier this year. The organization didn't believe the team was able to take advantage of benefits provided by compLexity.

Despite the fact that the Creative Complexity Challenge didn't become the success compLexity hoped, compLexity will host a similar event next year.

The current coL.USA lineup is not the same that played pre CGS. "compLexity was one of the most successful and popular teams before they turned to CS:S. After they returned to 1.6 they have yet to reach the same glory and success" The lineup they currently have is considered to be the best team in the USA. 1. coL 2. EG 3. a toss up

I am very well aware of that. From my point of view it is still team - no matter the players. Every single team in gaming changes players from time to time, but that doesnt mean its an entirely new team. Manchester United is still called the same even though the same players that started the club isn't still around (R.I.P).

lol Sway Gaming is not very good, atleast not last time I saw them :p

They're not amazing. But they always find themselves at the top of the NA scene come playoffs of an event. They are also arguably the best team in Canada, which is what I think really matters to coL.

EG are to overestimate...

they aren't really good at all, coL is just trying to get both of it's teams to represent the complexity organization at WCG, but coL.ca will get destroyed..
