Complexity beat Entropiq to win Spring Sweet Spring 3

Kristian "⁠k0nfig⁠" Wienecke put on a strong showing to spearhead his team to victory over the Russian squad.

Complexity have booked a spot at LAN Sweet LAN 2022 following a 2-0 victory (16-9 on Overpass, 16-12 on Mirage) over Entropiq in the Spring Sweet Spring 3 grand final. The No.14 and No.16 ranked teams received direct invites to the quarter-finals, with Benjamin "⁠blameF⁠" Bremer’s men taking down Fiend before struggling past 1WIN to make it to the title decider, while Aleksei "⁠NickelBack⁠" Trofimov and company defeated Copenhagen Flames and AGO in two-map affairs.

The tournament win comes as a much-needed boost for Complexity ahead of the IEM Cologne Play-in after a period of middling results. The international side will play their first match in the double-elimination bracket on Tuesday at 15:20 against ViCi.

Entropiq kicked off the series on their map pick of Overpass, swiftly rallying to a 5-1 start with sustained success on the B bombsite, but Complexity recomposed moving forward to prevent the half slipping away from them and overwhelmingly took control of proceedings. blameF & co. secured nine straight rounds in convincing fashion, conceding just 10 kills during their streak on the way to a 10-5 half. The international squad once again started slowly after the side switch but soon found their footing on the offence to close out the map, 16-9.

Next up was Mirage, where the events followed the same pattern as Overpass. Entropiq came out with a promising 3-0 advantage, but the majority of rounds went in favour of Complexity once they had guns in hand for a 9-6 lead on the T side. Justin "⁠jks⁠" Savage helped his team win their first pistol of the series before Entropiq began to string together successive rounds to narrow the score difference. However, a crucial eco round victory was enough to fend off the encroaching Russian squad as Complexity secured a 16-12 win.
