Complexity Gaming and Solid will meet in the first round of the BLAST.tv Paris Major 2023 Americas RMR. I don't think the North American squad will have any problems in this match, as there's not much to say about their opponent at all.
In turn, Solid have managed to get here in an unprecedented way, although the team has not been star-studded before. But you have to understand that the Brazilian side are inexperienced, and there's also a bit of a problem with their ambition.
In general, here everything promises to be simple and entertaining. After all, Complexity Gaming, having finally gathered their full squad, can catch their game on home soil.
So here I would look out for a logical victory for Complexity Gaming. I can't speak for a head start, as Solid seems to be skating quite well on Vertigo.
Complexity Gaming's form
The thirteenth team in the world rankings performed well at IEM Katowice 2023 almost reaching the play-offs. Then the North American team made it to the RMR tournament in a mundane fashion with three wins.
However, Complexity Gaming failed in the group stage of ESL Pro League Season 17 where they only escaped with one victory over Imperial Esports, but went home immediately afterwards.
The team also recently competed in the BLAST Premier Spring Showdown 2023 Americas, but lost to Imperial Esports without a hallzerk under their belt, not showing the proper play.
Complexity's latest results:
- A 1-2 defeat to BIG.
- A 0-2 loss to Movistar Riders.
- 2-1 win over Imperial Esports.
- 1-2 defeat at the hands of BIG.
- 1-2 defeat at the hands of Imperial Esports.
Top scores for Complexity:
- Overpass - 62% wins.
- Nuke - 62% wins.
- Ancient - 50% wins.
- Inferno - 50% wins.
Let's not forget that the North American squad hasn't been shown on the Mirage map for a long time.
Form Solid
The 86th team in the world ranking squeaked its way here, although you have to hand it to the guys for their efforts. However, the Brazilian team failed further in qualifying for IEM Dallas 2023.
What's more, Solid performed terribly in their local EPL World Series Americas Season 3, where they only picked up one win against Boca Juniors.
Fortunately from the latter, the team made it to the play-offs of CCT South America Series 6, but again it was not without problems - two defeats in five meetings.
Solid's latest results:
- A 14-16 loss to O PLANO.
- A 1-2 loss to the RED Canids.
- A 2-0 win over Furious.
- 0-2 defeat by Case Esports.
- 2-1 win over ODDIK.
Top scores for Solid:
- Vertigo - 80% wins.
- Ancient - 67% wins.
- Anubis - 50% wins.
- Overpass - 50% wins.
In turn, the Brazilian team gives up Nuke maps.

Complexity Gaming - Solid vs.
I don't think it's necessary to focus on this confrontation, as Solid has too few chances. In turn, the North American team at least somewhere to prove their worth, although the tournament will be difficult. Still, in this case I would recommend betting on Complexity Gaming to win.
