Complexity are set to utilize Aleksi "⁠allu⁠" Jalli in their IEM Winter Europe closed qualifier campaign, with the 29-year-old joining the team on a temporary loan after they parted ways with Valentin "⁠poizon⁠" Vasilev on Sunday. allu has been out of action since May, when he took a leave of absence from ENCE due to personal reasons citing the "hectic years with minimal breaks" leaving him "extremely drained and fatigued, inside and outside the server."

Valentin "⁠poizon⁠" Vasilev is no longer a part of Complexity, the Dallas-based organization has announced, ending the 22-year-old's 21-month long tenure with the team and making him a free agent. The move comes after Complexity failed to qualify for PGL Major Stockholm via the Regional Major Ranking leaderboard, finding themselves eliminated from IEM Fall Europe in 17-20th place and firmly out of contention for a Major spot. The team's subsequent appearance in the BLAST Premier Fall Showdown was also lacklustre as they narrowly fought past MIBR, only to be crushed

"It's been a tough week for EXTREMUM, losing to Evil Geniuses was obviously one of the worst-case scenarios, since the main goal of our organization and our team was to qualify for the Major," the organization

The latest update to CS:GO has finally resolved a sound bug that has been a long-running issue in the game, which allowed players to hear footstep sounds when players ran through water on parts of the map they should be unable to hear from their current positions. Discussion and disdain regarding the bug, which Valve specified in the patch notes would emit from spectating players' death locations, has been building since the addition of Ancient, which features water around the Terrorist spawn. However, the bug itself has been previously reported

Fiend will take home $50,000 for winning the tournament Fiend's in-game leader Kamen

They are fortunate to be holding a Legends spot at the Major, meaning they will have plenty of practice time to try and rectify

Twin brothers Henrique “HEN1” Teles and Lucas “LUCAS1” Teles are no longer a part of 00Nation’s active CS:GO roster, the organization announced today. The move comes shortly after the team lost all of their matches in the IEM Fall North America Regional Major Ranking (RMR) event, thus failing to qualify for the PGL Stockholm Major. The Brazilians were working with a six-man roster and didn’t use Alencar “trk” Rossato in the RMR due to Valve’s rules against the use of subs, which would cause the team to lose a percentage

00Nation have moved Henrique "⁠HEN1⁠" Teles and Lucas "⁠LUCAS1⁠" Teles to the bench, the organisation announced on Thursday. The change to the roster leaves the team with four players on its starting lineup, which will presumably see Alencar "⁠trk⁠" Rossato moved from a rotational position in the six-man roster into a full-time slot. The benching of the brothers comes in the wake of a last place finish in IEM Fall North America, in which 00Nation were unable to pick up a single map win in their group and were subsequently
