Complexity and FunPlus Phoenix will meet in the framework of IEM Summer 2021. It is interesting that the teams had already played with each other a week and a half ago, but that was the story of FLASHPOINT 3. True, I am confused by the fact that FunPlus Phoenix carried the opponent through one wicket, breathe.
Complexity form
The 13th world ranked team had a terrible start in the championship with a lousy attack on Vertigo against Vitality. It seemed to me that the team would get together and be able to quickly shoot Sprout in the lower bracket, thereby rehabilitating for starting mistakes. However, Complexity continued to strain with its weak play, even if it won a victory over the opponent. And there is a feeling that the team is very tight with ideas.
Recent Complexity results:
- Lost to FunPlus Phoenix with a score of 0: 2.
- Victory over Anonymo with a score of 2: 0.
- Victory over Sprout with a score of 2: 0.
- Defeat to Vitality with a score of 8:16.
- Victory over Sprout with a score of 2: 0.
Best Complexity Cards:
- Vertigo - 62% wins.
- Mirage - 64% wins.
- Nuke - 60% wins.
- Dust 2 - 50% wins.
Interestingly, the team will have to choose an instab between two cards - Overpass and Ancient.
FunPlus Phoenix Shape
The 17th team in the world ranking made a great start in the championship, beating Astralis at Ancient. One gets the impression that the team perfectly disassembled the brand new card, picking it up in the second meeting. As a result, FunPlus Phoenix was able to win the second time on Ancient, but still lost the G2 streak. Nevertheless, with such a cool attitude and good shooting, the team can compete for a place in the playoffs.
Recent FunPlus Phoenix results:
- Defeat against Vitality with a score of 1: 2.
- Victory over Complexity with a score of 2: 0.
- Win over Sprout with a score of 2: 1.
- Victory over Astralis with a score of 16: 7.
- Defeat from G2 with a score of 1: 2.
Best FunPlus Phoenix Cards:
- Vertigo - 67% wins.
- Nuke - 57% wins.
- Inferno - 54% wins.
I believe that the team will abandon Mirage, which is not doing well at all. Nevertheless, Ancient should be added here, which looks interesting when performed by FunPlus Phoenix.
Complexity - FunPlus Phoenix meeting statistics
During the current season, the teams held two meetings:

Interestingly, the teams played on four different maps this season.
Forecast for the match Complexity - FunPlus Phoenix
You look at the Complexity game and you see some kind of uncertainty. The team is too tight, from which the shooting and the idea itself suffer greatly. In turn, FunPlus Phoenix does an excellent job with late timings, and sometimes she herself does not mind raising the pace and showing a couple of fast rounds.
In addition, I am sure that the recent defeat remained in the memory of the Complexity players, who were carried away in one wicket. And the current selection of cards almost perfectly fits into the plans of STYKO and the company. Therefore, here I propose to bet on the victory of the FunPlus Phoenix team.
