Complexity Limit Wins World of Warcraft Race to World First
Complexity Limit has made history by becoming the first North American guild to win a World of Warcraft Race to World First in 10 years. They dethroned reigning champions Method in the process.
Limit spent 10 days working their way through the Ny’alotha raid and after 274 attempts, they defeated N’Zoth, the final boss of the instance.
This victory is particularly significant for Limit, as they had previously come in second place in all three major races to World First this expansion. It breaks their unfortunate streak and establishes them as the top North American guild.
Method, the European guild, won the three previous races in the expansion Battle for Azeroth. The only mid-tier raid in the expansion was won by another European guild called Pieces.
Limit has been the dominant guild in the U.S. for the past five years, ever since the release of Hellfire Citadel in 2015. They have consistently finished every major raid before any other U.S. guild.
While Limit has enjoyed regional success, their goal this expansion was to achieve World First finishes. Despite regularly holding a lead in each major raid, they always fell short until now.
This win for Limit is the first time in about a decade that a U.S. guild has claimed a World First finish. The last U.S. guild to achieve this feat was Premonition when they defeated the one-boss raid of Halion in June 2010.
Throughout the expansion, Limit has demonstrated growth both in their gameplay and organization. In the first raid of the expansion, Uldir, they came in second place behind Method. However, in the subsequent raids, Battle of Dazar’alor and Eternal Palace, they changed their approach.
Partnering with Red Bull, Limit turned the race into a broadcasting opportunity and even started streaming their team’s communications. This made them the first World First winners to provide this level of transparency.
In addition to sponsorships, Limit also joined forces with Complexity, a larger esports team conglomerate, under the Complexity banner. This further enhanced their organizational power.
By winning this Race to World First, Limit has showcased not only their skill but also their growth as a guild. This victory represents years of dedication and competition in the rapidly growing world of esports.
