In a statement released by CompLexity's VP and GM Kyle "Beef" Bautista they announced they would be dropping long time captain Kyle "Swindlemelonzz" Freedman from their roster.
Earlier today I informed Kyle Freedman that he was being removed from his position in our Dota 2 team and released from the organization. This action is a result of our Dota 2 team’s unanimous opinion that the personality conflicts within the team were too severe to continue. Based on that information, myself and other Complexity management made the decision to move in a different direction.
Kyle had been a part of the CompLexity roster since 2014 along with his brother Zfreek. No announcement of a replacement has been made yet. CompLexity sits 15th in the DPC with 135 points. This comes days after the team announced it would be pulling out of StarLadder's NA qualifier.

not even allowed to stay in the organisation, man, what did he do..
|
Interesting to see who they will get to replace him. Not really convinced they will be able to do better.

I feel bad for the 17 people replaced for having "too severe" personality conflicts with Kyle... it was Kyle all along!
|
Damn that’s crazy. I guess it makes sense, if they were attending events like the Manila Major and he was blowing up in his teammates I can only imagine being stopped in qualifiers by optic wouldn’t sit well with him.
But yeah what good pos 5 supports/captains exist in NA that are free?
|
Kyle was Complexity, gonna be wierd to not see him on there. But I mean, if things aren't working it's probably for the best to try something new. Don't think these personality conflicts were gonna go away without him leaving, since it has happened quite a few times with Col over the years.
|
so uh his bros gonna stay?
|
The swedes are known to be soft.
|
If he would be only a pos 5 to be replaced, but drafter and captain as well? That's hard/bad...
|
|
|
His brother is now free to leave and find a better team!
|
i've been watching the POV series from complexity and am not surprised with this at all to be frank
|
I'll be damned, zfreek actually did it
|
Zfreek will be a hot pick up next cycle, that's for sure, and I'm kind of curious if to see Zfreek draft. No clue who will come in as the pos 5 though.
|
wasn't it the rumor that this melon is holding zfreek back? maybe we'll see what zfreek can actually do now

I believe the rumor is zfreek stuck with his brother on col despite being better than the other 4 players on col (any given roster) because kyle was his brother
There's no good captains right now to replace Kyle so I don't expect anything out of zfreek/col until post-TI shuffle, where we'll see if zfreek moves up to a better team or something

Funniest part is how reddit went from full hatred to "Kyle is a saint"...

ppd is on horny mode, knowing he can steal zfreek

NA qualifiers is so weird atm with only optic being left behind which probably ensures their TI spot knowing how weak NA qualifier scene is atm lol Meanwhile china and SEA will have alot more to offer but will only qualify a few.
Zfreek is talented 4 pos and he never actually lost his edge overtime unlike players like zai who used to be insanely good but now not so much. I'm excited for his opportunity post-TI not the current TI i think they're doomed all other possible captain/drafters currently are preoccupied(fly, s4, puppey, kuro, ppd, envy, mushi, misery) and most likely some of them aren't leaving their team(kuro/puppey). I bet that dude will get snatched postshuffle he's really god
I know kyle has a clear shot-calling ability but post-TI he finally has an opportunity to possibly hold highvalue players for his roster or other roster he joins. Rather than the bunch of T2 players he gets for col and finally test his opportunity. As we've seen not even puppey or ppd could make it work with players who doesn't cut at the top so maybe he could make it work if he had the resources now
