Valentin “poizon” Vasilev is no longer a part of Complexity, the Dallas-based organization has announced, ending the 22-year-old’s 21-month long tenure with the team and making him a free agent.
The move comes after Complexity failed to qualify for PGL Major Stockholm via the Regional Major Ranking leaderboard, finding themselves eliminated from IEM Fall Europe in 17-20th place and firmly out of contention for a Major spot.
The team’s subsequent appearance in the BLAST Premier Fall Showdown was also lacklustre as they narrowly fought past MIBR, only to be crushed by OG in a two-map series that included a 0-16 loss on Mirage.
poizon won just one notable event under the Complexity banner
In his time under the Complexity banner, poizon averaged a 1.08 rating, being one of the names to impress in the lineup’s LAN debut at BLAST Premier Spring Series 2020. However, the online era was not kind to Complexity, and they have struggled to put up notable results over the past 18 months.
The change leaves Complexity with only one member from their original ‘Juggernaut’ lineup, which was composed of Benjamin “blameF” Bremer, William “RUSH” Wierzba, Kristian “k0nfig” Wienecke, Owen “oBo” Schlatter and poizon.
oBo stepped down from the active lineup not long after their sole title victory at BLAST Premier Spring 2020 Europe Finals, citing no end in sight to the team’s extended stay in Europe, while RUSH was placed on the bench in July to make way for Patrick “es3tag” Hansen and was subsequently released.
One month later, Complexity suffered another setback as k0nfig was placed on medical leave due to a freak wrist injury, with him since departing the team amid reports of an impeding move to Astralis.
