The club centralized operations at The Star in Frisco in 2017; this is a historical base, not a current operating-office claim.[2]

Commercial note

No current club-level partner list was confirmed in the available sources.

Complexity’s commercial distinction is historical: it carried a multi-title North American club identity for 23 years, with the organization reporting more than 140 championships across nearly 30 games. That record is a legacy asset with clear storytelling value, but it does not establish that current teams, staff, or operating rights remain available.[1][3]

The official site retains a historical partner roster, but the roster does not establish which agreements remain active after the 2026 wind-down or what rights transferred with the intellectual property. No partners are therefore listed as current, and no partner-specific activation is represented here as presently available.[1][3]

Any future use of the Complexity name, archive, marks, or competitive history would require confirmation from the current rights holder. Lake said the intellectual property had returned to GameSquare; the company has not announced a relaunch or a current partnership inventory in the sources reviewed. The profile treats the club as inactive and makes no projection about a return.[3][4]
