In there he became good friends with Paulo "CatZ" Vizcarra. On June 12th 2011 Root Gaming was acquired by Complexity Gaming and Destiny joined compLexity. Ten days later Complexity Gaming released Destiny citing refusal to honor his contract.

Destiny qualified for IGN ProLeague Season 2 through its first Qualifier. In the main tournament he was knocked to the losers bracket by Socke in the first round, where he was eliminated by Axslav.



Steven developed a unique style of play heavily based on Infestors usage, plus his "Four-festor-hit-squad" began used a lot by zergs around the world as a proven tactic. Destiny was invited to compete in the group stages of the GeForce Pro/Am tournament. There, he defeated Korean players Bomber 2-1 and Ace 2-0, but lost to SjoW, ThisIsJimmy, and ViBe. This meant that Destiny would not compete in the playoffs.

He took out many names and did several showmatches with Korean progamers.
