History and context
Passion UA , founded in 2023 by Ukrainian footballer Oleksandr Zinchenko, already has experience in CS2. The organization has undergone several roster changes, including signing and releasing players such as kvem , Topa , Woro2k , DemQQ , and others. T.c, who now coaches Passion UA , previously worked with Complexity, where he was a coach until his recent move.

His experience working with these players could be a key factor in the development of the new roster. This is the first time Passion UA has brought in international talent, and signing the entire core of Complexity is a significant step forward.

Expectations for the new lineup
The arrival of Complexity players, who have experience competing at a high level, should strengthen Passion UA . JT, hallzerk, Grim, and nicx will bring international experience, while T.c, as a coach, will help the team find common ground. Fans hope that the new lineup will be able to climb the rankings and reach new heights.
