Complexity vs Furia: PGL Bucharest 2025 betting odds, tips

Luke Warr Published April 6, 2025

PGL Bucharest 2025 is off to a hot start, but nothing left betting sites reeling like Complexity Gaming’s upset win over Team Falcons; can it continue the momentum against Furia, though?

The first round of any major Counter-Strike tournament has some wild mismatches. Complexity Gaming against Team Falcons wasn’t the biggest, but moneylines on a Complexity Gaming win were still over 5.0. Any sort of win would’ve been a surprise, but a quick 2-0 victory for Complexity? That was basically inconceivable.

That’s what happened, though. Now the big question is whether Complexity Gaming is poised to break out, or if this was just a Falcons fumble brought on by impending roster changes?

Furia Esports vs Complexity Gaming in-depth team analysis

Furia Esports roster and recent results

Though Furia remains one of Brazil’s most recognizable and popular teams, 2025 isn’t looking like a good year for the team. The squad endured early eliminations from IEM Katowice, ESL Pro League Season 21, and BLAST Open Spring. PGL Bucharest is off to a decent start though, as it took a swift win over Apogee Esports.

The Furia Esports roster includes these five players:

• Yuri “yuurih” Boian
• Kaike “KSCERATO” Cerato
• Gabriel “FalleN” Toledo
• Marcelo “chelo” Cespedes
• Felipe “skullz” Medeiros

Furia Esports map pool

The only map Furia is particularly good on is Dust 2. Over the last six months, Furia has won 13 of 19 games played there. Everywhere else, Furia is hovering around or below a 50% winrate.

Complexity Gaming roster and recent results

Complexity hasn’t had a particularly good start to 2025, either, with its only win on LAN coming over Imperial Fe. In online events it’s on a tear. The team went undefeated in the qualifiers for PGL Bucharest and YaLLa Compass Qatar 2025. That seems to have lifted Complexity’s spirits and may foretell some improvement from the team.

Complexity is using this roster for PGL Bucharest, which has been together since January:

• Ioannis “JT” Theodosiou
• Michael “Grim” Wince
• Håkon “hallzerk” Fjærli
• Danny “Cxzi” Strzelczyk
• Nicholas “nicx” Lee

Complexity Gaming map pool

Complexity has been actively looking to take matches to Train, and it’s been successful with that approach with a 6-2 record in 2025. It’s even better on Anubis, going 7-2 so far. It’s also 3-0 on Nuke, albeit against lower-ranked NA teams. It isn’t all sunshine and rainbows for Complexity though, as the team is at 50% on Ancient and has been struggling of late on Inferno and Dust 2.
