Complexity vs Team Falcons Prediction: the Falcons Aren't Ready to Make Into the Playoffs

Prediction for the IEM Katowice match which will take place on February 5th. Who will turn out to be stronger? Check the team conditions! Several betting options are available.

In the first half of 2023, Complexity was mediocre at best, occasionally managing to beat a European team, but things improved with the signing of North American superstar EliGE. The player helped the team move from underdog to the category of teams that surprise regularly. In CS2, the team has already played in the IEM Sydney final and the BLAST Premier Fall Final semifinals. The Americans performed poorly online at the Thunderpick World Championship 2023, but the EliGE squad is getting a second wind and defeating many solid opponents in LAN competitions.

But the Americans started the new year extremely weak. The failure at the BLAST Premier Spring Groups raised many questions because Complexity could not win a single map, losing Natus Vincere and Ninjas in Pyjamas. The team started the tournament in Poland in the group stage and against not the strongest opponent - Apeks. The Americans lost to Team Spirit in the battle for a spot in the playoffs, but EliGE and company have one more chance to make it to the tournament's final stage.

The new world champion started the tournament in Poland with an unfortunate and, at times, crushing defeat against the Turks. This team had many problems in yesterday's game against the Rebels, so it is hard to predict anything good for the Falcons. The Falcons completed their significant rebuild by raiding ENCE players and signing Sunpayus and Maden. In addition, the Arab sponsors invited Magisk, who will join his old school coach, Zonic, but in the third team. Together with Snappi and BOROS, the Falcons now have a full squad for their CS2 debut. With the acquisition of most of the ENCE roster, the Falcons have the backbone that won the IEM Dallas trophy in 2023 and a direct invitation to the RMR tournament for the upcoming PGL Copenhagen Major. The BLAST Premier: Spring Groups 2024 tournament was the first test for the rebuilt Falcons roster, and the game against Astralis and Vitality showed that the star-studded roster is still extremely weak, with one individual player not enough for the guys.

The bookmakers give Team Falcons a good chance, but Complexity Gaming is still the favorite. The Americans have slowed down, but the Falcons have to beat such a raw team.
