If you thought that this year you wouldn’t be participating in the A1 Adria League or watching the best regional players and teams, you are mistaken. Even though we are starting a bit later this year, we are more than ready to show you what we have planned for the 13th and 14th season. Keep reading to find out more!

Seven games, a LAN event, and a whopping prize pool

This year we are proud to inform you that we will be hosting 6 different games in both A1 Adria League seasons. Four games we will stream throughout the whole season while two of them will be a part of mini tournaments. All year long you will be able to enjoy CS2, EAFC23, EAFC24 Mobile, and Brawl Stars. We don’t want to reveal everything from the start, so stay tuned for the remaining two games! All we will say is that first one is from Riot Games, second one is a legendary fighting game, and the third is a very popular battle royale.

The prize pool for both seasons will be more than 40.000 Euros, and we are starting the league with the first qualifiers of the s13 on June 8th. Leaving you time to practice and prepare, since the competition is fierce each year. And while the 13th season will have a finale online, the ending for the 14th season will be a LAN party as a part of the Reboot event sometime in November!

As far as the format goes, for CS2, we will have six qualified teams and two invited to compete for the top prize. The group stage will be double elimination and the top 4 will move on to playoff.

Football lovers will enjoy EAFC24 and EAFC24 Mobile throughout four qualifiers, group stage, and finals. The group stage will contain four groups of four players. The remaining eight players will advance to the second stage of groups where there will be two groups with four players. From there we will get the best four who will compete in the playoffs.

Last but not least, Brawl Stars will have four qualifiers as well while the group stage is double elimination where the best 16 teams will compete in BO5/BO3 series.

Here are your S12 A1 Adria League champions!

This year’s exciting final of the 12th season of the A1 Adria League will be talked about for a long time. In the four-day gaming spectacle, the organizers of the A1 Adria League and the A1 Student eChallenge student competition managed to pamper us with more than 50 hours of gaming and esports content. The event ended by crowning the champions in CS2, Brawl Stars, EA FC 24, and EA FC 24 Mobile. 

Favorites triumphed

After the first day of the program which was reserved for the visitors themselves, who had the opportunity to play against regional influencers in titles such as Counter-Strike, League of Legends ARAM, Tekken, and EA FC 24 we saw the finish of the 12th A1 Adria League season.

The first game was EA FC 24 and once again it was Tarik “Novo” Novo who defeated his opponent and took his sixth title in the A1 Adria League. This veteran took home the prize of 1,250 euros after besting three players from the CLA organization. It was the first favorite to win the league, but certainly not the last at the Reboot InfoGamer event in Zagreb.

As far as Brawl Stars is concerned, once again the title went into familiar hands. Salada de Frutas can’t be defeated and forgotten that easily. They triumphed over their opponents once again, against the Balkan Elite this time. Salada is a familiar name on the regional scene, and recently they were presenting us at the Clash of Leagues as well.

The third game in a row was another football simulation, which was played on mobile phones. It is known that the EA FC 24 Mobile community in the region has been growing for years, and since the 12th season, the players finally got the chance to show themselves in the best light. With excellent commentators Stefan and Nikolas, mobile players fought for a prize fund of 1,350 euros, and the victory was won by SHAQ, who showed calmness and precision in key moments.

Already in the tradition of Reboot Infogamer powered by A1, the icing on the cake at the end of the 12th season of the league was Counter-Strike. For the first time, the final was played on a new version of the game (CS2), and The Suspect and Zero Tenacity teams once again showed why the popular CS is often called the “king of esports”. In a shocking ending, the victory was won by the Serbian team Z10 with a score of 3:2, and with that, they won the third title in a row and became one of the most successful teams in the history of the league.

A1 Adria League: Exciting Finale Crowns Champions in FIFA23, CS:GO, and Brawl Stars!

/0 Comments/in , , , , , /by

The 11th edition of the prestigious regional A1 Adria League has concluded. Last weekend’s unforgettable finale crowned the champions in three games: FIFA23, CS:GO, and Brawl Stars. Tension filled the air throughout the three-day Reboot Games Weekend powered by A1, as the best gamers competed for a total prize pool of €16,800 at the Zagreb Fair from June 9th to 11th, marking the largest prize pool in the league’s history.

Tarik Novo claims the FIFA23 champion title

In a thrilling final, Novo emerged as the five-time champion of the A1 Adria League. Esad and Novo are familiar opponents, but in the final, the better player rightfully celebrated victory. Esad Memić held a 1-0 lead in the final, having reached the grand finale through the upper bracket. However, Novo orchestrated a remarkable comeback in three intense matches, clinching the trophy for the 11th season of the A1 Adria League.

A1AL Season 11 Tarik Novo FIFA 23

Salada de Frutas – the top Brawl Stars team in the region

Karma to OP had limited chances against Salada de Frutas in the Brawl Stars final. With this latest triumph, Salada de Frutas secured their third A1 Adria League championship title, further solidifying their dominance in the domestic Brawl Stars scene.

A1AL Season 11 Salada de Frutas Brawl Stars

Zero Tenacity – CS:GO champions

Zero Tenacity outplayed Jake Bube with a decisive 3-0 victory, successfully defending their title from the previous year. The dominant performance of the Zero Tenacity squad does not fully reflect the true nature of the final. Jake Bube had their opportunities, but they failed to capitalize on them effectively.

A1AL Season 11 Zero Tenacity CSGO

“Year after year, we are growing together with our loyal players and fans, whom we gather on the widest optical network with minimal latency in Croatia. We continuously invest in a community that demonstrates increasing interest, confirming that we are doing the right thing. As a telecommunications company, we feel a great social responsibility towards all our customers, which is why we initiate numerous projects to make us all #BetterOnline,” stated Iva Ančić, Brand Manager of Marketing Communications and Digital Business at A1 Hrvatska.

CS:GO, FIFA and BS players are ready for LAN!

Season 11 in the A1 Adria League is coming to an end. The group stage is officially over, and the teams in multiple games are ready to compete for the top prize, the title, and the right to call themselves the best. Who will win the 11th season in FIFA, BS, and CS:GO find out this weekend in Zagreb!

Zero Tenacity is one step closer to defending the title

Four best teams in this CS:GO seasons were Jake Bube, Portugal, Zero Tenacity, and Infernus Esports. Only two have made it to the finish line, and their battle will be held at Zagrebacki velesajam during a Reboot Games Weekend event. Zero Tenacity once again secured a place in the finals, winning by a considerable margin against team Infernus Esports. Z10 was dominant on both maps, with scores of 16:6 on Mirage and 16:2 on Nuke. As expected of them, they justified the role of favorites.

The second finalist is team Jake Bube. Suppose I might say a slight surprise over team Portugal who had a well-known name in the region DEPRESHN in their roster. Jake Bube played solid two matches, winning with the same result, 16:13 on Mirage and Inferno. The battle in the finals will be tense, but the advantage has to be given to Zero Tenacity as the defenders of the title and last year’s champions.

Novo is back for the fifth FIFA title.

We witnessed an exciting FIFA23 competition in this season of A1AL. Novo, Esad, Fico, and Marec are the best four players coming out victorious. Many familiar names again at the end, and only two will have the chance to battle for the title at the LAN event in Zagreb. Esad and Novo got 2:0 wins against their opponents in the semifinals. Esad bested Fico, while Novo was better than Marec.

Esad and Novo battled it out in the winner bracket’s finals, with Esad as the victor. He defeated Novo with a 2:1 score. Thus Novo fell to the loser bracket, where he had to beat Fico, who previously eliminated Marec in the lower bracket semifinals. Novo defeated Fico with a 2:1 score and got a chance for revenge against Esad.

In the best-of-five match, Novo will have his shot against Esad in the finals. Since Esad won the winner bracket finals, he will have a win advantage in the grand finals.

The second title for Esad or the fifth one for Novo?

Salada and Menace in the BS finals

This season one of our previous main games, Brawl Stars, had a different format. Instead of competition lasting throughout the whole season, Brawlers battled it out in two qualifiers. played on May 25th and June 1st. The two best teams who came out victorious out of the qualifiers are Salada de Frutas, now just Frutas, and Menace2Society.

Frutas was dominant in the first qualifier; they even eliminated their opponents in the upcoming finals Menace2Society, and some familiar names in the region, such as Jazavci, La Aquilla, etc. In the second qualifier, with Frutas out of the way, Menace2Society got their chance to qualify, which they did.

The finals will be tense in the Brawl Stars competition since former teammates will now be opponents. Namely, Decai, who won the BS tournament with Omerta last year, had Protic as his teammate. Protic is now a part of Menace2Society, while Decai plays for Frutas. Don’t miss the action this weekend in Zagreb!

Entropiq won the PUBG title.

One of the mini-tournaments played recently was in PUBG. Once again, the favorites were clear, and they bested the competition once again to defend the title for the second time. So far, we had three PUBG tournaments in three seasons in the A1 Adria League, and all three went into the hand of Entropiq. This team is a well-known name in both regional and worldwide tournaments. The best player in the 11th season of A1AL was Lukarux, who won the MVP prize.

OMERT4 takes their first title in the A1 Adria League!

/0 Comments/in , /by

Saturday and the first day of Reboot Games Weekend brought us not only a FIFA23 champion but also the best Brawl Stars team in the region. After two seasons, Salada de Frutas has been dethroned and the new and talented players from OMERT4 are the new kings. OMERT4 won the finals after a dominant performance throughout the whole tournament.

A well-deserved win for OMERT4

Unlike the sportsmanship we saw between brstimir and Gruby in Saturday’s FIFA final, the Brawl Stars finale was full of sparks and tension. The famous three-man team Salada de Frutas and Andrey, DzonDzon, and Lavvek didn’t manage to defend the title this season. Previously they had won two consecutive titles in A1 Adria League. Instead, a young and talented OMERT4 took their well-deserved win in the Brawl Stars competition. Protic, Decai, and Bogdan were amazing on the stage and it could be seen on their faces how much winning the championship would mean to them.

OMERT4 Brawl Stars champions

Since the start of the tenth A1 Adria League season in Brawl Stars, OMERT4 showed dominant performance. They finished the group stage in first place with an overall of 290 points. In the playoffs, they eliminated GreekGod, and third-placed Jazavci.

Before the finals, the two teams met in the playoffs, and Salada came out victorious in that duel. OMERT4 however took their revenge and with a 3:1 score took the trophy and the right to call themselves the best Brawl Stars team in the region. How dominant the performance from OMERT4 was shown in the fact that they didn’t lose a single set in the finals. Salada de Frutas, as they came from the upper bracket, got an automatic win before the start, and that’s the only win they got that day. Everyone was amazed, from casters to the audience, how OMERT4 could easily outplay Salada. And we could see the disappointment, anger, and anxiety in the members of Salada as they were closer and closer to losing the competition. Eventually, it happened and OMERT4 took home a 900€ prize.

Second round of group stage brought luck to the favorites

/0 Comments/in , , , /by

Another week has gone by. The group stage in FIFA23, Brawl Stars, and CS:GO is ongoing. We are over with half of the competition in this stage of the tenth A1 Adria League season. The first week we saw some exciting matches in all the games. iNation and Blink dominated the CS:GO group stage, Salada failed in Brawl Stars and three out of four Bosnian players took their wins in the FIFA competition. The second week wasn’t any less exciting.

iNation secured the playoff; Psihocastic eliminated

Fans had the opportunity to once again watch CS:GO competition two days in one week. On last Wednesday we saw one qualification match and one regular one where teams were 1:1 in the overall score. The qualification match was played between iNation and Blink since they had two wins each, and were on the verge of making it further in the competition. That match was won by iNation, namely, Blink didn’t show up because of another tournament even though they were given one hour extra to attend.

In the other match that was played that day it was KTRL who came out victorious and showed a very dominant performance. They defeated GamePub and got one step closer to the playoff stage.

On Sunday, which is the second play day in last week’s CS:GO competition, we saw one team leave us. It was Psihocastic and Velez Mostar fighting for staying in the league. Velez Mostar took down their opponent with a 2:0 win and is still in contention. On the other side, the competition ends here for team Psihocastic.

In the match between Zero Tenacity and ILLYRIANS who both had a 1:1 score, Z10 came out victorious and is now in a good situation to make playoffs.

OMERT4 and GreekGod at the top; Salada redeemed

In the second round of the SWISS group stage in the Brawl Stars competition the favorites justified their role and got their well-deserved victories. OMERT4 is continuing with their amazing performance from the qualifiers and is now sitting at 2:0, alongside team GreekGod who is one of the strongest teams this season as well. These two teams will battle against each other this Thursday for the first spot in the playoffs. The wins that brought them to this position were achieved against La Aquilla for OMERT4 and for GreekGod it was a marathon match against Jazavci that went to all five maps.

Team Rolex, who won one of the A1AL qualifiers, also got their first victory in the group stage. They defeated Extreme Masters and now have an overall score of 1:1. Salada de Frutas, last season’s champions also got their win and started the climb to the top. They have a long way to go, but this is a good start for Salada and it shows they are not yet forsaken. They were fast and furious in their match against La Remontada which ended with a 3:0 win.

Novo and Brstimir are undefeated

Once again the favorites in the FIFA23 competition are back on top. This isn’t a surprise seeing how both Novo and Brstimir are dominating A1AL for seasons now. It was always Novo who secured the titles, but Brstimir is right there with him if we look at his performance. Both of these guys are currently sitting at the top of the leaderboard with a 2:0 score still waiting to be defeated. That will happen for one of them very soon, seeing that in the next round of the group stage which begins tonight they will fight against each other. So either Novo or Brstimir will take the first spot in the playoff stage.

In the other two matches of the second round in the FIFA23 group stage, Sardinho213 and Gruby got their wins. Last week turned out to be bad for Bosnian players. Out of four, only one was successful.  Also, Bruno and esad1memic are not in a good spot right now. They are on the verge of being eliminated seeing as they don’t have a single win. Let’s see how they perform tonight!

Brawl Stars, FIFA23 and CS:GO started their race to the title!

/0 Comments/in , , , /by

Last week we had a lot of exciting match-ups in all our games. With the start of the group stage, things are starting to heat up. Brawl Stars, FIFA23 and CS:GO started their race to the title in the first round of the SWISS group stage in the tenth season of the A1 Adria League. Here is a recap of the week.

Aloha and Blink dominant

The tenth CS:GO season in the A1 Adria League started explosively. We had two match days, and in the end, the two teams who took both wins and were the most successful are Aloha and Blink. Blink is a well-known team in the region, and in Europe as well. This win was expected from both teams, seeing that they were the invited ones. While the qualified ones had to fight their way up here. Blink took their two wins against ILLYRIANS and KTRL. While the match against KTRL was an easy one for the Albanian team, they had a tougher task versus ILLYRIANS but the final result was 16:13 in favor of Blink.

On the other side, Aloha who also has a 2:0 score after two play days was completely dominant in both CS:GO matches. They defeated Zero Tenacity as well as Psihocastic. Against Z10 Aloha only allowed their opponents 2 rounds, while in the game against Psihocastic the result was 16:3. Psihocastic and Velez Mostar were the teams with no wins so far and they are sitting at the bottom of the standings, while the rest have one win and one defeat.

Bosnian players successful in FIFA23

The new FIFA wasn’t a big problem for the players. The start of the group stage brought us FIFA23, instead of FIFA22 in which the players competed during the qualifications. The first match that opened the group stage in this competition was Novo versus Bruno. The four-time champion didn’t have a lot of trouble against the Croatian representative. It was a clear win for Novo with a result of 2:0. The other three matches all had a 2:1 score, and the players that came out victorious were Encika and Parla, also Bosnian players, and Brstimir as the Serbian FIFA virtuoso. In the end, favorites justified their role.

Salada de Frutas in questionable form this season

The A1AL Brawlers debuted this season in the group stage. We have seen many interesting matches, one almost reverse sweep, and a disappointing performance by the champions.

The most successful teams in the first round of the group stage were OMERT4, who was the first seed, and GreekGod. Both of these teams won their games with a dominant 3:o score. OMERT4 took down La Remontada while team GreekGod was victorious against Rolex, a team that won one of the Qualifiers Cups.

On the other hand, the most interesting match in the first round was played by Jazavci and Extreme Masters. Everything looked like a clean win for the former team seeing as they started the duel with 2 wins. But when Extreme Masters realized it was Bo5, they put it in second gear and almost reverse-swept their opponents. Jazavci however didn’t allow that, winning the last match and scoring in Brawl Ball avoiding overtime.

The biggest surprise was Salada de Frutas. The current Brawl Stars champions in the A1 Adria League are showing bad form since the beginning of the season. They didn’t manage to win a single qualifier, they were seeded fourth and now DzonDzon and his team lost the first game. Salada was against team La Aquilla who defeated them with a 3:1 score.
