Current form of the teams
Complexity continues to demonstrate a stable performance at high-level tournaments. At the Perfect World Shanghai Major 2024: American RMR, the team gained a solid 3-1 victory, winning important matches against M80 and BOSS . However, their defeat against MIBR showed that the team had some weaknesses. At other tournaments, such as Intel Extreme Masters Rio 2024 and ESL Pro League Season 20, Complexity failed to reach the final stages. The stability of their game depends on the leadership and form of key players.
Team's Map Pool
Complexity.
- Strong maps: Vertigo (63%), Anubis (60%).
- Weak maps: Mirage (0%), Inferno (44%).
Most often, Complexity choose Vertigo, but have difficulties on maps like Mirage, which they usually ban, and Dust2.
FlyQuest.
- Strong maps: Ancient (69%), Nuke (73%), Anubis (64%).
- Weak maps: Mirage (33%), Inferno (50%).
FlyQuest demonstrates versatility, as their mappool allows them to adapt to different opponents. Their Ancient map is particularly noteworthy, as they consistently win on it.
Probable map choice: FlyQuest is expected to avoid Inferno, and Complexity is expected to ban Ancient. The most likely map to play will be Anubis, as both teams have similar metrics.
Match prediction
This match should be one of the most interesting in the first round. Complexity demonstrates experience in international tournaments, but FlyQuest is in better shape and has a strong mappool, which allows them to compete even with the favorites.
Prediction: FlyQuest has the best chances of winning due to their stable play on key maps. However, the match will be tense and may end with a minimal advantage.
Perfect World Shanghai Major 2024 starts on November 30 and will last until December 15. The tournament will feature 24 teams that will compete for a total prize pool of $1,250,000.
