Uncoordinated tactics and weak attack ability put Complexity at risk of early elimination.

EliGE tried its best, but most of its teammates were unable to assist

Complexity is facing the risk of being eliminated after the first day of competition at the Perfect World Shanghai Major. After being overwhelmed by FlyQuest, they continued to lose convincingly to Passion UA.

Meanwhile, The MongolZ has affirmed its position as a bright candidate by easily overcoming MIBR, achieving a 2-0 record in the Opening Stage.

Complexity played poorly right from the opening match against FlyQuest and did not get better in the match against Passion UA. Jonathan "⁠EliGE⁠" Jablonowski and Michael "⁠Grim⁠" Wince were the team's only two bright spots, but they lacked chemistry in many mid-round situations. In contrast, Passion UA ​​demonstrated excellent reading of the game, effective shooting skills even with pistols, and kept his spirits up after difficult losing rounds.

"I think both teams played CS very well," coach Tiaan "⁠T.c⁠" Coertzen shared about his team's first day of competition. "You won't get any easy matches here, so we need to try harder." Many Pick'Ems players have placed their trust in Complexity, but their current performance probably makes many people regret it.

Meanwhile, The MongolZ had a perfect day with a total score of 26-8 in rounds. Although MIBR is a bit more difficult than Rare Atom, both are still not enough to stop the team from Mongolia. With current form, no team wants to meet The MongolZ in the 2-0 bracket.
