The results of the first round in the 14th season of A1AL in Brawl Stars, EAFC, and FC Mobile are in. CS2 teams played the second round of groups and two teams secured their first wins. Many interesting things occurred this weekend and some players and teams are already eliminated. In the group stage, there is no room for mistakes. Our competitors should know that and everyone is doing their best. For a full recap, keep reading!
Favorites successful in the first round of Brawl Stars
The Swiss start was smooth for the favorites, with FBI and Delulu providing the only genuinely tense match. While the result might not reflect it, Delulu was fortunate to wrap things up quickly, but they still earned a well-deserved victory.
The 76ers made a stylish debut against Team Cherry. As the vice-champions, they proved their #2 seed status, facing only minor challenges in the Heist set before securing a 3:0 win.
Frutas is another team that frequently garners attention and praise. Despite facing the technically weakest team in the tournament due to the Swiss format, they still dominated with a 2:0 finish. La Masia, however, is a team to watch next week when they face opponents more suitable for them.
Furthermore, when it came to the fourth match in the first round of the group stage, a team was disqualified. OMERTA failed to show up in their duel against Gospodin Adry who got an automatic win. Maestros will play in OMERTA’s place and they will compete in the second round of A1AL with a 0:1 score.
Conclusion of group A and B matches in the FC Mobile
An explosive start of the first round of FC Mobile group stage in the 14th season of the A1AL. Groups A and B set a possible record for goals scored, with an average of 3.25 goals per game, totaling 78 goals across 24 matches. After all of these matches, we had to say goodbye to four players with the worst results. Those that didn’t make it are Vuk, Iky, Havertz, and Nedox10, while in the rest of the competition, we will continue to watch SPK_Somzi, and RAB_MahirSarajlic from group A and FE_Shaq and Alen from group B.
In group A, the first seed is SPK_Somzi who earned 11 points, winning three, drawing two, and losing only one game. Another player who will advance into the top eight is RAB_MahirSarajlic with 10 points. He also won three matches, drew one, and lost two.
In group B things were bombastic and we saw a lot of goals. Especially in the match BUD_Havertz vs Nedox10. There, the former scored an overall seven goals, ending the game 7:1. Haverz also recorded the most goals in this round (14) but failed to qualify unfortunately. From this group, Shaq is the first place with 12 points (4 wins and 2 losses). The second place is Alen with the same result, but a worse goal difference.
Next week you can follow the matches from groups C and D. Don’t miss the action!
Highlights from the A1AL group stage matches in EAFC25
Following the qualifications, we transitioned to the group stage of the season, shifting from EAFC24 to the new EAFC25. The day’s opening match on stream featured Misko, the top scorer from the qualifiers, against Bati, who ranked lower. Misko dominated the game, displaying solid play in both attack and defense, quickly establishing a 2-0 lead by the 22nd minute. The match concluded with a score of 4-1 in favor of Misko.
The other matches proved more challenging for the players, particularly for Jasik, who struggled to convert his chances. Despite a strong performance, he faced tough defense from AmcoS, who scored in the 12th minute. The highlight was AmcoS’ spectacular goal in the 88th minute, a stunning shot from Dembele that hit the underside of the crossbar.
In the next match, Gruby faced CLA_tuna13, resulting in a hard-fought game where both players scored, sharing the points.
Last season’s runner-up, CLA Banderas narrowly defeated Fika, who advanced from the playoffs, with a final score of 3-2, securing all three points.
The fourth match featured defending champion GAMEON Marac against 10th-season champion Gruby. As expected, it was a tense contest that ended in a 1-1 draw, with both players sharing points.
The final match of the day saw Fika hoping to redeem his earlier missed opportunities against CLA Banderas. Initially, Fika held a 3-1 lead after 35 minutes, but his opponent scored two quick goals before halftime, leveling the score at 3-3. The second half was marked by fierce competition, yet neither player managed to score again, leaving the final result the same.
These were the highlighted games that we watched on stream. However, an overall 24 matches were played, and here are the leaders of the groups after the first A1AL group stage round.
GROUP A:
- Brstimir – 9 points
- Misko – 6 points
GROUP B:
- AmcoS – 7 points
- PLGNN Matke – 7 points
GROUP C:
- Gruby – 5 points
- GAMEON Marac – 4 points
GROUP D:
- Hara – 6 points
- CLA_Banderas – 4 points
I would also like to highlight Brstimir as our MVP. He is the only player who went through the first part of the group stage with all the victories. That tells us about the competition of the A1AL league itself. Brstimir scored 11 goals and conceded only three while playing the 4-4-1-1 formation.
CS2 teams Kubix and Juggernauts secure first wins in the A1AL group stage
In the second group stage round of the 14th A1AL season, Kubix and Juggernauts were victorious and secured the first wins. They defeated their opponents, the former with a clean 2:0 win, and the latter with a 2:1 victory. They now have a 1:0 score, just like Zero Tenacity and Oto100 who were successful in the previous round.
The first duel on stream was Kubix’s match against BAKLAVA Gaming. Kubix had a stellar start on Mirage, leading 4:0, but Baklava fought back, winning six rounds in a row to equalize by halftime. Kubix then secured their fifth round due to some minor mistakes by Baklava, bringing the score to 7:5 in Baklava’s favor. The second half began with Kubix winning another pistol round, tying the game at 7:7 with two consecutive victories. From there, Kubix dominated the remainder of the map, finishing with a score of 13:9.
On Dust II, Baklava started strong, winning the first three rounds. Kubix responded at the same pace, leveling the score to 3:3 after six rounds. The remainder of the half was a back-and-forth battle, ending in a 6:6 tie. Kubix won the pistol round of the second half, taking the lead for the first time on his chosen map. However, Baklava continued to push forward, reaching a total of 10 rounds while Kubix struggled to respond from the CT side. After three rounds, Kubix fought back to tie the score at 10-10. Tripey and, Rossonerii helped Kubix secure an 11th round against Baklava. Kubix then clinched the next two rounds, finishing the series 2:0. Despite this victory in the bo3, Kubix doesn’t seem to have the same dominance as last season’s champion.
Juggernauts and Diamant battle it out in a thrilling bo3 series
In the second duel of the day, the Juggernauts began their game on Anubis with a pistol and bonus win, but Diamant Esports quickly responded with three consecutive rounds on the CT side. The Juggernauts then became more aggressive, finishing the first half with an 8:4 lead. The second half dashed Diamant’s hopes as the Juggernauts secured their ninth round with a pistol win. However, Diamant rallied back, winning three rounds in a row until SteveO purchased an AWP in round 17, helping the Juggernauts to their tenth round. The match became uncertain as Diamant surged, winning four straight rounds to level the score at 11:11. In the end, Diamant remained steady, finishing with six consecutive rounds to claim Anubis 13:11.
On Mirage, Diamant kicked off with a pistol win, but the Juggernauts quickly countered, taking four consecutive rounds to lead 4:1. Diamant regained control, evening the score at 5:5 with contributions from Destroyd and Jernej. Ultimately, Diamant ended the half ahead with a 7:5 score. The Juggernauts tied it up after winning the pistol and bonus rounds. The teams battled aggressively, reaching a tie at 10:10, but the Juggernauts dominated the final three rounds to win the map and push for Dust II as the decider.
Dust II started with a pistol and bonus win for the Juggernauts on the CT side. However, Diamant quickly bounced back, winning three rounds before losing the fourth, making it 3:3. The Juggernauts then hit their stride, winning the next three rounds and securing a strong 8:4 lead by halftime. After winning the pistol and bonus again in the second half, the Juggernauts maintained their momentum and closed Dust II with a decisive 13:4 victory.
