/0 Comments/in , /by

PORTUGAL outplayed iNation in the grand final of this season of our CS:GO league and won the main prize of 2000€.

Our CS:GO final stage once again featured a single-elimination bracket with four teams in contention for the main prize. iNation, PORTUGAL, 4glory, and the recently announced Marten Gaming faced each other to decide the best Adriatic team of this season. Firstly, PORTUGAL played against 4glory. In their second duel for this season, the Macedonian-majority team once again prevailed and defeated Miloš “dEE” Marčeta’s squad with a 2-1 result.

Next up, iNation were paired up against Marten Gaming. The former recently traveled back from Isreal, where they played in the 13. IESF World Championship, and now they came back to play the A1 Adria League. Marten was a good match for the team, but iNation managed to squeeze past them on both maps (Inferno – 16:14; Dust2 – 16:13). In the third-place decider, Marten Gaming once again lost. This time, they couldn’t overcome the second Serbian team, 4glory Esports.

PORTUGAL started off strong on their map pick – Mirage. 10 rounds on the CT side gave them a good lead heading into the second half. There, they let iNation win five rounds but managed to close out the map without many problems. Inferno was the map pick of iNation and they looked much better on this map. However, PORTUGAL bounced back and brought the game to overtime. After a quadruple overtime match, Blaže “HEv1X” Hristov carried his team to victory and secured the first place for PORTUGAL.

CSGO Playoffs

The final CS:GO standings:

1. PORTUGAL – 2000€
2. rs iNation – 1500€
3. rs 4glory Esports – 1000€
4. Marten Gaming – 500€

 

Metamoon are your A1 Adria League LoL champions!

/0 Comments/in , /by

In the final two matches of this season, Metamoon came out on top and outplayed both 49% winrate and Harmony to win the main prize.

As the double-elimination League of Legends bracket has been slowly progressing throughout the season, only two matches remained for today. The matches in question were the lower-bracket final and of course, the grand finals. Since 49% winrate outplayed Clouded Leopards in the previous round, they were set to challenge Metamoon for a spot in the finals. 49% winrate didn’t weren’t in a good form today, so Metamoon had an easy time in the lower-bracket finals (2-0).

This win put Harmony and Metamoon in the final match. The two teams played each other a week ago when the Macedonian side was better in the upper-bracket finals. This time, however, Metamoon was clearly the better team. Harmony couldn’t win a single game, and the result was 3-1 only because they came from the upper bracket. After losing to Split Raiders in the last season, this is the second consecutive season that Harmony finish the season in second place. We are happy to conclude one more League of Legends tournament for this year. Congratulations to every team that participated and especially to Metamoon, who are your A1 Adria League LoL champions!

League of Legends Playoffs

These are the top 4 League of Legends teams for the season:

1. Metamoon – €1600
2. Harmony – €1200
3. 49% winrate – €800
4. Clouded Leopards – €400

For the third time in a row, amke2001 is the A1AL champion!

The two-day-long FIFA playoffs culminated with an incredible final in which Tarik “amke2001” Novo became the three-time A1 Adria League champion.

During Season 8 of the A1 Adria League, the regional FIFA players had the chance to play against each other in two titles – FIFA21 and FIFA22. The four players that managed to adapt to the newest iteration of FIFA the best were the four players who advanced to the League. After a great SWISS stage Miloš “brstimir” Majdevac, Esad “esad1memic” Memić, Haris “Flow.edenn95” Lukomirak, and Tarik “amke2001” Novo spent the last two days competing in the double-elimination bracket.

Day 1 saw the first three matches played out. Namely, amke2001 and brstimir clashed in an intense match that went to all three rounds and saw the Bosnian player come out on top. After that, esad1memic breezed past Flow.edenn, which put the latter in the lower bracket alongside brstimir. The first day concluded with this elimination match in which Flow.edenn was outplayed by brstimir and eliminated from the tournament.

Today, amke2001 continued his winning streak. In the upper final, our back-to-back champion fought back versus esad1memic and sent him down to the lower half of the bracket. There, brstimir continued his mission of coming back from the brink of elimination and threw the Bosnian star out of the competition. Only two remained – amke2001 and brstimir. Brstimir had the chance to complete his comeback and finally dethrone amke2001, but the latter’s stellar performance in the grand finals secured him his third consecutive A1 Adria League title.

FIFA22 Playoffs

The FIFA playoffs standings:

1. amke2001 – €750
2. brstimir – €500
3. esad1memic – €300
4. Flow.edenn – €200

Marten to replace BLUEJAYS in the CS:GO playoffs!

/0 Comments/in , /by

Instead of BLUEJAYS, it will be Marten Gaming who will try to claim the throne in the final playday of this CS:GO season.

Yesterday, one of the A1 Adria League participants managed to accomplish a great feat on the international CS:GO scene. Namely, BLUEJAYS, a team consisting of players that have been a part of the A1 Adria League for years won the 13. IESF World Championship. The tournament is one of the rare ones nowadays that incorporate a country-based system in the format. National squads from all over the world traveled to Eliat, Israel to try to claim the World Champions’ title on LAN. Team Serbia, Kosovo, and Macedonia represented the region in Israel, and Macedonia managed to claim the title after a dominant win against Romania in the grand finals.

Unfortunately, scheduling conflicts between the two tournaments will make it impossible for BLUEJAYS to attend the CS:GO playoffs. Damjan “kyxsan” Stoilkovski and his team qualified for the playoffs in Round 4 and unlike iNation, their traveling schedule won’t let them arrive in time for the final stage. Instead of BLUEJAYS, a chance to win the main A1 Adria League S8 prize will be given to Marten Gaming. The Bosnian-majority roster has been a force not to be reckoned with in recent times, so it will be a joy to watch them play the playoffs bracket.

The CS:GO playoffs will be played on Sunday, as a part of the last Reboot Online Games Week day. Four teams – Marten, 4glory, iNation and PORTUGAL will fight for a prize pool of €5.000 and the title of the best team in the Adriatic region. What do you think, who will become the new CS:GO champion?

Lavvek & Flow are the new regional Brawl Stars champions!

After a flawless SWISS stage, the Salada de Frutas roster playing under Flow secured their well-deserved A1 Adria League Brawl Stars title.

Our first Reboot Online Games Week day was a BLAST. Both the segments during the day and the Brawl Stars playoffs provided our followers with plenty of entertainment and we have now crowned our Season 8 Brawl Stars champions. The four most successful teams of the regular season advanced to the double-elimination bracket we watched today. Flow (formerly known as Salada de Frutas) were the clear favorites heading into today’s matches, and they didn’t fail to disappoint. Flow and Winx Club started out the bracket with clean sweeps versus Lightning Strike and Omert4, respectively.

In the following elimination match, Omert4 succeeded in throwing Lightning Strike out of the tournament. Meanwhile, the biggest derby of the season saw Winx fall short to Flow in a nail-biting upper-bracket final (2-3). While Winx lost the upper final, they managed to climb back at the expense of Omerta and challenge Flow again. If the previous match was a nail-biter, we can’t find enough words to describe the grand final. With a lead of 2-0 against the clear favorites, only a single win separated Winx from the champion’s title. However, Lavvek finally did it! A massive comeback happened in the remainder of the game and on Brawl Ball, Flow claimed what was theirs since the beginning – the A1 Adria League title.

Brawl Stars Playoffs

The final Brawl Stars standings for the season:

1. Flow – €900
2. Winx Club – €600
3. Omert4 – €300
4. Lightning Strike – €200

 

Brawl Stars and FIFA Pro Clubs to be featured on our IGRAJ event!

/0 Comments/in , , /by

After announcing most of the Reboot Online Games Week segments, it is time to reveal more details about the last event – IGRAJ.

You will get the chance to watch IGRAJ on two occasions. The first one will be today, starting at 15 o’clock. Lavvek and Inder45 will once again be here to play with you, our fellow Brawl Stars players. Across the two hours that this IGRAJ segment is set to last, Inder and Lavvek will compete with you and against you. We will watch a couple of great matches, you will try to beat these two veterans, and everyone is going to have plenty of fun.

As we mentioned a couple of times in our previous articles, FIFA will be played out during two days – Thursday and Friday. Well, before the first playday begins, some FIFA showmatches will take place. And it is not just regular FIFA, we are talking about FIFA Pro Clubs. A total of four teams will participate in the event, and additional money will be donated for Kiara Goršić. There will be three professional teams from the region as well as a fourth team, consisting of FIFA players and talent from the eighth A1 Adria League season. We will be expecting you, FIFA and Brawl Stars enthusiasts. Tune in on Wednesday at 15 o’clock as well as Thursday at 17h.

IGRAJ

GAMERS FOR KIARA; Tune in for a good cause!

Probably the most important segment of this season’s Reboot Online Games Week will be the humanitarian one, dedicated to helping Kiara Goršić.

Kiara Goršić is a seven-year-old. Unfortunately, a tragedy recently struck her and her family. Namely, Kiara was diagnosed with a form of brain tumor. It is a grade IV diffuse glioma of the midline. Croatia and Europe cannot do much about this, so the best hope for Kiara is a clinical study in the United States that is conducting a clinical trial with a new drug, ONC201. This new drug has no side effects like the other methods and is the best option for young Kiara, according to the family’s oncologist.

“The doctor told us that she would also make an MRI, but as a last resort because no one thought that a six-year-old girl would be endangered by something like that. We were helped a lot by my husband’s sister who works at the hospital so we got an MRI as soon as possible.

Then followed that unfortunate 29.7. when she went for the magnet. You already get a worm of suspicion because it was said that it would take 20 minutes, and you see that the time has been greatly exceeded. After the scanning ended and when I walked out of that room with her, the radiologist just looked down at the floor. That’s when I knew right away that something was wrong. The moment he utters ‘unfortunately, the results not good’, when you hear that, your legs are cut off and the whole world and life no longer make any sense.” – Kiara’s mother Matea told a Croatian portal.

A1 Adria League is here to help Kiara as much as we can. A part of Reboot Online Games Week will be dedicated to helping this adorable child overcome this huge challenge in her life. While other segments of the event will also have the goal of collecting the needed money, “Humanitarka” will be a segment that will focus entirely on that mission. Personalities from the region will compete in modified game modes of three games and in the meantime, the collected money will be donated to Kiara. The games will be VALORANT, Rocket League and CS:GO.

There are a couple of ways to help Kiara. A crowdfunding campaign was recently started and can be visited by clicking HERE. A Facebook page is available HERE for all new information. Depending on your residing country, you can donate money for Kiara via these methods:

Call: 060 9003

Description: “plaćanja donacija za Kiarino liječenje”

“We make a living by what we get, but we make a life by what we give.” Together, let’s help Kiara and give her a chance to see everything the world has to offer.

Harmony enter the League of Legends grand finals!

/0 Comments/in , /by

The upper bracket final match saw Harmony outplay Metamoon and become the first team in the grand finals.

While our other three games had their respective SWISS stages decide the playoffs participants, after the qualifiers, League of Legends jumped straight into the playoffs. With a slower tempo, the eight teams have been playing the double-elimination bracket during the regular season, and now they are ready for the final stage.

We knew the top 3 teams before this playday. However, one more match was needed before the final playday. It was the upper bracket final duel between Harmony and Metamoon. The former finished Season 7 in second place and are now eager to take the title. Ghisou’s squad were more than dominant in the first game and won that match with ease. Metamoon weren’t ready to give up just yet and struck back on the second match. In the end, Harmony took them down and secured their spot in the grand finals. The League of Legends final matches will be played next Saturday. We will watch two matches – the lower bracket final as well as the grand finals.
