Match Prediction: Complexity Gaming - Team Liquid | CS2 (CS:GO)
BLAST Premier Spring Groups 2023Complexity and Team Liquid will meet in the lower bracket of group B at BLAST Premier Spring Groups 2023, where they will try not to be relegated to the Play-In stage.
To put it bluntly, both teams showed a puke game at the start of the championship. And if Complexity was simply crushed like children, then the "liquid" ones got drenched and managed to lose to OG.
In general, we have a worthy derby between two North American teams. And yet, Team Liquid is much closer to being rehabilitated. And in general, Complexity played in such a way that I want to say goodbye to the team as soon as possible and forget about it for a long time.
Therefore, here I prefer to believe in logic and look at the dry victory of Team Liquid.
Complexity form
Back in November, the 23rd team in the world ranking failed at the group stage of Elisa Masters Espoo 2022. However, Complexity was close to reaching the playoffs there, if not for the defeat from Astralis.
Already at the end of the season, the North American team won two ESEA Autumn 2022 Cash Cups, and also reached the semi-finals of CCT North America Series 2.
However, at the start of BLAST Premier Spring Groups 2023, we saw a familiar team that does absolutely “nothing” on the map, for which they receive a natural defeat.
Given such a start, I would not count on Complexity in the next match - too much self-confidence and lack of sense.
Latest Complexity results:
- Victory over Strife with a score of 2:0.
- Victory over Eclipse with a score of 2:0.
- Victory over TeamOne with a score of 2:1.
- Lost to Nouns Esports with a score of 0:2.
- Defeated by FaZe Clan with a score of 0:2.
Best Complexity maps:
- Nuke - 75% win rate.
- Overpass - 70% of wins.
Needless to say, the Complexity team is ditching Anubis for the time being.
Form Team Liquid
The third team in the world ranking made it to the semi-finals of BLAST Premier Fall Final 2022, where they generally looked good. To put it bluntly, the North Americans reached a certain peak there, showing a very confident game.
Moreover, at the final BLAST Premier World Final 2022, the team reached the final, where, although they lost to G2, on the whole they had an excellent championship.
However, Team Liquid did not manage to maintain their form until BLAST Premier Spring Groups 2023, as the liquids unexpectedly lost to OG at the start of the tournament. But what is most interesting, the guys played as if they forgot all the strats and decided to have fun.
Latest Team Liquid results:
- Defeat from FaZe Clan with a score of 1:2.
- Victory over Natus Vincere with a score of 2:1.
- Victory over OG with a score of 2:1.
- Lost to G2 with a score of 0:2.
- Lost to OG with a score of 0:2.
The best maps of Team Liquid:
- Mirage - 88% of wins.
- Anubis - 67% of wins.
- Inferno - 50% win rate.
Interestingly, on the eve of the "liquid" refused the Vertigo card.

Prediction for the match Complexity — Team Liquid
The match will certainly be close, as both teams have not woken up for the start of the season. However, I abruptly stopped believing in Complexity, because these guys generally fell out of reality in the first match. Therefore, in this case, I would recommend betting on the victory of Team Liquid with a score of 2:0.
