/0 Comments/in , /by

While there aren’t any chances of reaching the final stage, Omerta are still more than eager to defeat their opponents until the end of the groups.

Today, Omerta are facing Crystal Gaming Red, a great, talented squad that has been a thorn to other teams throughout the Clash of Leagues. This team is placed second, six points behind the absolute favorites, BIG. They are tied with OKA Gaming, the team that destroyed all chances of Omerta qualifying for the final stages in the last playday. Seeing as these two teams are tied on the leaderboard, we can expect a match of similar quality today as well. Omerta are ready and able to defeat names such as Crystal Gaming Red, and they are going to give it their best tonight.

Omerta lose the deciding match against OKA Gaming!

/0 Comments/in , /by

Omerta have lost all chances of qualifying for the Clash of Leagues playoffs after yesterday’s defeat versus OKA Gaming.

Since the double playday when Omerta split the prey, winning one and losing one match, their chances of reaching the next stage of the Clash of Leagues were slim to none. After yesterday, however, even that slight chance is gone. The first of three matches Omerta would have had to win in order to qualify for the playoffs didn’t end in favor of the regional team. OKA Gaming proved too tough of an opponent to beat and Omerta fell to sixth place after the match came to an end.

BIG are the absolute best team in the group stage with a 12-0 W-L ratio. The runners-up team is Crystal Gaming Red, while OKA Gaming are tied with CGR but take up third place. Bulgarian Pros stand in fourth place, and after them, we can see KMRGMR and Omerta with 6 points each. The seventh place is occupied by FreeWin, while the disqualified side, papahellfans, takes the bottom place on the leaderboard. The teams have a break that will last a couple of days and we will be back with more Brawl Stars action on the 10th of August.

 

Omerta face OKA Gaming in the fifth round!

/0 Comments/in , /by

Round 5 of the Clash of Leagues will be played out today, with Omerta probably playing their most important match yet in the tournament.

The last playday featured a total of two rounds in one day. The leaderboard changed drastically after those two rounds as the top teams are steadily securing the first three spots. However, there is plenty of time to change the final rankings and Omerta will certainly give their best to do exactly that. The Serbian team needs to win every single one of their remaining matches to advance further in the Clash of Leagues.

Last time, Omerta showed great resilience in the two matches they played. Bulgarian Pros managed to outplay them in the end, but their victory against KMRGMR gave them a slim but existing chance to come back in the group stage. Today, their opponents are OKA Gaming. While certainly not the toughest opponent Omerta have faced, the match versus OKA Gaming is their most important one yet. If they lose this matchup, their chances of reaching the final stage are over. If they win, they will have to repeat this success two more time to join the top 8 of the Clash of Leagues.

Omerta split the prey in Clash of Leagues: Super Week!

/0 Comments/in , /by

Two rounds of the Clash of Leagues came to an end in only one day filled with action-packed Brawl Stars action.

Each team played two matches today. BIG once again proved their worth with two 2-0 victories. Their victims were Crystal Gaming Red and FreeWin. Crystal Gaming Red were better than KMRGMR, and the latter lost their second match as well. This time, their opponent was our regional squad, Omerta. While they said that KMRGMR were going to be the tougher opponents, Omerta actually achieved a better result versus this team.

Omerta were placed against Bulgarian Pros in their other match. This time, they weren’t so successful and the Bulgarian side beat them without losing a set. A loss and a win for Omerta now puts the team in 5th place on the Clash of Leagues leaderboard. In order to advance to the playoffs, Omerta have a difficult task ahead of them. To place among the best three teams, Omerta would have to win every match until the end of the group stage.

 

You can watch this Clash of Leagues playday that included two rounds below:

Omerta: “A win feels good, but we still have a lot to learn and correct.”

/0 Comments/in , /by

The third Clash of League playday is scheduled for today (03.8), featuring the second-seeded regional representative, Omerta.

With a loss in the first round versus BIG, and a much-needed victory in Round 2, Omerta are now sitting comfortably in the middle of the leaderboard. A lot is going to change today. The Brawl Stars teams competing in the Clash of Leagues will play two matches each, and the aftermath will certainly show us which teams are most likely to advance to the final stages. Today, Omerta will clash versus the qualified side KMRGMR, as well as the Bulgarian team, Bulgarian Pros.

We talked with the Omerta players about the Clash of Leagues, their impressions, thoughts, and predictions about the league. Make sure to read the players’ answers below and be there to support the team today when the league starts.

What are your impressions and thoughts on the first two rounds of the league?

I think the concept of the tournament is really well made and challenging for teams to prove they are here for a reason. The first round was really hard due to the fact that we played against one of the best teams in the league. I think we could have played better against them and we will try to do so in the future rounds. In the second round, we had an easier opponent and we proved that we are a better team than them by winning 2-0 in sets. I think we played well but we still have a lot to learn and correct.

How was it, playing against such a prominent team as BIG?

It is really challenging when you are playing against one of the best teams in EU. They are such experienced and skilled players with lots of achievements and a big reputation. In matchups like that, you aren’t necessarily looking for a potential win but you study how those players are reacting in certain tough situations and trying to learn their strategy, it was a new experience that taught us a lot of things. Experiences like that can be really valuable, and I think we learned a lot from that.

Who do you think will be a harder opponent tomorrow, KMRGMR or Bulgarian Pros?

I think both teams are really good, Bulgarian pros are comfortable sitting at 2nd place and KMRGMR are just behind us on the leaderboard. KMRGMR really put up a great fight against BIG and showed their potential, but Bulgarian pros didn’t lose yet so both matches will be extremely hard but I think that KMRGMR will be a slightly harder team to beat.

Which teams do you think will advance to the final stage?

It’s anyone’s race, to be honest, but I think it’s still too early to predict anything because most of the teams in this group stage are almost equal in skill so it is really hard to predict which teams will prevail and which will not. Everyone has good chances to advance into to final stage and the only team that I’m almost certain that is advancing to the final stage is BIG.

Swizz’s team are the new A1GW Rocket League champions!

/0 Comments/in /by

The Serbian team outplayed Goated Clowns and secured the A1 Gaming Weekend Rocket League champions title.

Swizzove srbende were dominant since the start of the tournament. They managed to outplay Crnci u parizu, OC-Esports and Synaptics before playing Goated Clowns for the first time in the bracket. They bested them and OnlyTheFamilyy after that to become the first team in the grand finals of this A1 Gaming Weekend. OnlyTheFamilyy had three wins in the upper-bracket – versus Aqua E-sports, FAMILY., and srecko57. After losing their match against Swizzove srbende, they were sent to the lower bracket where Gloated Clowns beat them 3-1.

The second-placed team, Gloated Clowns, had an interesting run during the weekend. Wins versus The BTK and RL TARIGUZI secured them a spot in the upper-bracket finals where the new champions defeated them. In the lower bracket, the runners-up were better than FAMILY., srecko57, and OnlyTheFamily. The grand finals were a clean sweep for SWIZZ’s team who defeated their opponents 4-0.

The top 4 Rocket League teams:

1. Swizzove srbende – €180
2. Goated Clowns – €105
3. OnlyTheFamilyy – €90
4. srecko57 – €75

 

papahellfans fall short to Omerta in the second round!

/0 Comments/in , /by

After suffering a defeat in their opening match, the Serbian team delivered in Round 2 and defeated the Belorussian squad papahellfans!

The second round of the Clash of Leagues confirmed BIG’s role as favorites in the group stage. Once again, the German squad had a convincing 2:0 win, this time against KMRGMR, and is now sitting comfortably on the very top of the leaderboard. BIG played versus one of the qualified teams for the league. Right next to BIG on the leaderboard are Bulgarian Pros. This trio who defeated papahellfans in Round 1, went against Crystal Gaming Red and scored a 2:1 win. Both BIG and Bulgarian pros have six points, the only difference between the teams being that BIG has yet to lose a set in the league.

Omerta stated that their matches after the first round were going to be a lot easier. And it seems that they were right. papahellfans were no match for our second regional team in the League. Bogdan & co. dominated papahellfans and are now standing firmly in fourth place. Just like last time, the last match was a duel between two qualified teams. FreeWin and OKA Gaming battled it out to end this amazing day of Brawl Stars. While FreeWin certainly gave their best, they were no match for OKA Gaming who bested them 2:0.

“We played against a team that is not as known on the European scene as BIG but in their region they are, they were 2nd in their league, they got a place in the group stage, and they are certainly not to be underestimated. It wasn’t easiest in the beginning of the match, as it is always hard to break the ice with that first win that we definitely need for our confidence and to continue competing in the Clash of Leagues if we want to reach that final stage. There was still a cramp in some games which is quite normal but after the win it is definitely easier to breathe and we got a certain dose of confidence to continue the competition. We have already looked at where we made mistakes in the match and how to correct them. In the next match, you can expect us in an even better edition.” – said the Omerta players after the match

The next round of the Clash of Leagues is set to start on the 3rd of August. In the meantime, take the time to (re)watch Omerta and the second playday:

 

Omerta: “BIG are too strong, we should have more chances in future matches.”

/0 Comments/in , /by

Clash of Leagues Day 1 is now comfortably behind us, with the favourites securing most of the wins in their opening matches.

BIG managed to overpower the regional team after only two modes. Omerta tried their best, but the German squad was eager to take the victory, and they did it. lule_andjelko, Bogdan, and Niko will look for their first victory elsewhere, while BIG are now a step closer to reaching the final stage of the tournament. Next up, Bulgarian Pros and Papahellfans clashed! The Bulgarian team which competes in the A1 Gaming League had an easy time against their opponents and defeated them 2-0.

The third game of the day was once again a sweep. Crystal Gaming Red faced OKA Gaming, one of the teams that qualified via the International Qualifier. OKA were powerless against CGR and joined Omerta and Papahellfans as the losers of the first Clash of Leagues playday. KMRGMR and FreeWin, two teams that qualified for the tournament along with OKA Gaming met each other on the very first day of the group stage. Both teams won a set, but in the end, KMRGMR was the team that reached number 2 first and secured their first win.

The second playday is set to be played out on the 30th of July. Make sure to follow us on social media and stay updated with any news concerning the Clash of Leagues.

We contacted the Omerta players after their match against BIG came to an end:

“We played against BIG who are one of the favourites not only for passing the groups, but for winning the whole event. Of course, BIG were the favourites in our match and we should have offered more resistance, especially during the Heist set where we simply didn’t leave our base because of their constant pressure. We didn’t leave the base and couldn’t do anything while attacking. During our defence, we held our own for a couple of minutes, but after that BIG took control of the game and defeated us.
In the first Hot Zone match, we had an idea to go really aggressive with Edgar, Buzz, and Bibi and to try to split them apart using constant pressure that these Brawlers offer with their abilities, but unfortunately, we totally missed our picks even though we knew that we were either going to guess the matchup or miss it. It was a high-risk, high-reward decision and we drew the short straw. In our second match, we had a good matchup but we made a couple of small mistakes that we shouldn’t make versus teams like BIG who exploited them and punished us severely. This defeat wasn’t hard on us because we knew that BIG are currently one of the best teams in the EMEA region and we have tried our best. Nevertheless, we shouldn’t be sad or disappointed because we played against the strongest opponent already and now we have matches against opponents that we think we can defeat. Our focus is on the next match, we already started with the preparations and we hope to have our first win in the second round!”
