Watch your favorite streamers during the STREAM UŽIVO panel!

Recently we announced Reboot Online Games Week – a week full of fun, entertainment, and high-quality competition. The A1 Adria League playoffs along with different events joined by famous names from our region will take place every day for a whole week – from 23.1129.11.2020.

One of the things that we mentioned first was the STREAM UŽIVO panel. You have probably heard of sprEEEzy, Sansen, neLo, Nikolarn, and DoubleAiM. All of these are famous regional esports personalities that will be taking part in the Reboot Online Games Week.

Nikola“Nikolarn” Aničić is a content creator for Team Singularity who has over 500 thousand followers on Twitch and constantly keeps growing. He plays all kinds of games such as Apex Legends, Call of Duty: Warzone – and VALORANT. Nikola will be the first on schedule when we talk about Reboot Online Games Week – join in on Monday at 13:00 and watch Nikola outplay other players in a couple of VALORANT matches.

Aleksa “DoubleAiM” Stanković is without a doubt one of the best League of Legends players in the region. Along with his former teammates and CR4ZY, Aleksa finished second in the latest season of EBL and took part in the European Masters competition. Starting at the same time as Nikolarn does, but on Tuesday, DoubleAiM will look to gain some of that juicy ELO while streaming his games to our viewers.

We will be watching one more stream on Tuesday. An ex-Overwatch and StarCraft II player, Maro “sprEEEzy” Miličević is currently focusing on PUBG. He will be one of the two guests for the Reboot Online Games Week that will stream this battle royale title and we hope that you will be present and cheer for him while he tries to get that Chicken Dinner at 17:00.

Former top 80 tennis player according to the WTA as well as a PUBG player and host, it seems like Sanda “Sansen” Mamić rocks the competition in every game she plays. Sanda has plenty of PUBG experience in the regional and international scene, having attended tournaments such as the second season of Broadcaster Royale and the Girl Gamer Royale S1. She has also been a shoutcaster for the PUBG Balkan League along with our dear A1 Adria League caster Baro “Pougljeni Mrav” Barukčić. Check out her stream on Wednesday at 13 o’clock.

Last but most certainly not least comes Leon “neLo” Pesić – the absolute best Croatian Rainbow Six: Siege player who recently spent more than a year playing for Natus Vincere, one of the top R6: Siege teams in the world. neLo’s stream begins at 18:00 on Wednesday and we expect to see a big number of regional fans watching him dominated the tiers of R6.

Make sure to be on the stream while these regional esports personalities are streaming (you should be on the stream anyway!), as they know how to do a great entertaining stream while providing a high-quality stream skillwise. More information for the other panels will be available soon..

Get ready for Reboot Online Games Week

As you already know, due to the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic and regulations surrounding it Reboot InfoGamer won’t be taking place in its true form this year. But, that shouldn’t worry you too much because Reboot Online Games Week is officially a thing.

The aptly named Online Games Week has most of the information already in the title, but just to be sure: it’s a regional online gaming event and faire that’s organized by Reboot and powered by A1, with the support of the Croatian Ministry of Culture.

A1 Adria League S4 Crowd

The COVID-19 pandemic prevents us from experiencing last year’s spectactle in Zagreb once again

The event will last from 23rd to the 29th of November. With over 200 hours of amazing gaming content from three different studios – each one in its own theme field – every visitor will be able to enjoy the occasion like it has never been done before. You can expect everything – from indie game dev projects to the biggest regional esports event – the A1 Adria League finals. Of course, since InfoGamer is well-known for its giveaways and goodies, those will also be a part of the online event, but in a more digital atmosphere.

On A1 Adria League’s channels, you’ll be able to watch some of our biggest regional esport players and content creators stream their favorite games. The  “My Story” segment is going to tell the tale of how several known regional esports figures got to where they are now, we’ll play fun exhibition matches and top it all off with a big charity event.

There’s going to be different panels, each one with either esport players or/and journalists. The end of the week is reserved for the most special matter –  the Clash Royale, Brawl Stars, Counter-Strike: Global Offensive, and FIFA21 finals that will be broadcasted on our channels to see who’s going to end up on top in what has been a very exciting season.

STEAM UŽIVO – Some of the best regional streamers will spend time with our followers and play their iconic games during the week. Streamers and players like Nikolarn, DoubleAiM, Sansen, and neLo will take part in the Games Week in order to make the upcoming week even more entertaining for everyone. You’re welcome to jump in, ask questions and hang out!

MOJA PRIČA – “Moja priča” or “My Story” will be a series of videos recorded and dedicated to the careers of different people who managed to make it out in the competitive esports field. Whether you would like to hear about how did sprEEEzy become so good at different games, how Professeur became a part of HLTV’s writing team or how did neLo join Natus Vincere’s R6: Siege squad, we have got just the thing for you.

IGRAJ – If you wanted to play a game or two with the most talented regional players and streamers – now’s your chance! You can join in during our FIFA21, Brawl Stars, and Clash Royale segments and compete with or against the A1 Adria League players and/or staff.

TURNIRI – If you prefer more competitive play, then we got something for you. Our followers will have the chance to take part in some casual cups and earn valuable rewards for your time. If CS:GO or PES are your thing, you can sign up and play with other players in the region. More information to follow soon..

PANELI & HUMANITARKA – We will have panels for journalists, players, and casters alike. We will also spend this week donating to the people who need it the most – we will donate money to Dječji Dom Vrbina and we will also host a charity 5v5 mini-cup which will see ten streamers play against each other with the winners donating €500 to a charity of their choosing.

Oh, and did we mention that all this is going to be free?

Of course, also follow our social media pages to find out more details about matches and upcoming events!

 

The Brawl Stars PLAYOFFS are here!

Our second Brawl Stars season of the year has reached the PLAYOFFS stage! In the fifth season, Alpha Elite were crowned the undisputed champions of the League after an amazing season that saw the squad show a better form than the other teams by a large margin.

After a short pause and a shuffle happening in the regional Brawl Stars scene, we were ready for the sixth A1 Adria League season. This time, two teams played the role of favorites for winning the entire League, and they were both a part of the same organization – Good Game. Good Game Gold & Red had some of the best players in the region, and we all witnessed the domination that happened during the qualifiers.

Except for the Good Game squads, the teams that managed to secure their respective places in the playoffs include FA Deadly and Code Lyoko. All these squads are full of great players that are spending their short break to prepare for the playoffs, and most importantly, prepare for the Good Game teams.

Heading into the playoffs, we will have the chance to see a four-team double-elimination bracket with a €2,600 prize pool up for grabs. The team that will advance to the final through the upper part of the bracket will have one BO5 advantage over the lower-bracket finalist. Except for the €2,300 prize pool dedicated for the four playoffs teams, we will once again have awards for the MVP player and two awards for community MVP players.

The teams and players will share the prize pool in the following manner:

1. €1000
2. €700
3. €400
4. €200

Standard MVP – €100
Community MVP x2 – €100

Ajdin and esad1memic qualify for the A1 Adria League FIFA playoffs!

After nine qualifying cups and three mini playoff tournaments, the FIFA portion of our league reached the final playoffs event. Today, the last mini final came to an end, and the last two qualified players are now known.

arminho0307 as one of the best players in the League finished the SWISS stage of the playoffs cup with a 30 score. The reigning champion followed suit and secured a spot in the cup playoffs with only suffering a loss in his match against arminho. HRVoje-95, unfortunately, couldn’t win a single game and ended the mini playoffs in the SWISS stage earlier than expected.

The fifth round saw Ajdin977 and DziDziAnlaki clash for the last spot and Ajdin took the W home. A round before that, Jasik advanced to the playoffs together with Esad, rounding up the list of players.

The semifinals were set to start. Ajdin and arminho played against each other, and in the second semi, Jasik and esad1memic met to decide the second finalist. Two fantastic matches saw the better player qualify for the playoffs – esad1memic and Ajdin will join brstimir and amke2001 in the single-elimination finale of this FIFA21 A1 Adria League season.

The playoffs teams are now confirmed!

The penultimate round of this season Clash Royale gave us more insight into who can we expect in the playoffs. The ninth round pretty much confirmed the four best teams. Adding to that note is another roster name change – Totem Esports became Joža Esports.

Tribe Academy and Team LAZR were the first two teams on the menu. It was a rather strange match with only KotH being played. Players not showing up and connecting to the match gave LAZR their ninth win of the season (and in a row!).

Next were Flayn eSports and Team KFC. The latter team needed a win so they could keep the chances of going to the playoffs. The qualified team KFC put up a good fight, but in the end, it wasn’t enough. Flayn won 2-1 and pretty much sealed second place in the group stage.

Joža Esports and Team AMG were the last ones to step on the battlefield. Again, the latter needed a win to stay in the fight for the last spot in the playoffs. But, just like it was the case with Team KFC, AMG couldn’t do that and they lost. Even though they’ve had an excellent match, it just wasn’t enough against the mighty Joža Esports.

We now have confirmed teams for the playoffs. Team LAZR and Flayn eSports comfortably sit at the top, with Tribe Academy and Joža Esports right behind them. Unfortunately for them, Team AMG and Team KFC lost any chances of progressing through.

We are a step closer to the A1 Adria League playoffs stage!

FIFA put an end to the qualifying cups and we are approaching the third mini playoffs cup. The other title we will cover today, Brawl Stars finished its twelfth qualifier and is now one qualifier away from the eight-team playoffs stage.

Brawl Stars

20 teams clashed in the second-to-last Brawl Stars qualifier. Good Game Red and Gold were eliminated earlier in the cup last time, but this time, they managed to hold their ground and reach the finals. Bad Boys bested OP KIFLE and FA Deadly outplayed Code Lyoko, while the two GG teams in the quarters were better than On-Fire (vs. Red) and Mystic Team1 (vs. Gold).

The semis saw two high-quality matches unfold. BadBoys faced Good Game Gold and FA Deadly were the team set to beat Good Game Red. Unfortunately for FA Deadly, GG Red were simply too good and secured one of the spots in the finals. GG Gold also showed BadBoys who dominated this season of Brawl Stars and eliminated them from the cup. In yet another GoldRed matchup, the Golden players took the biggest share of the points home.

The Brawl Stars rankings heading into the last qualifier are as follows:

A1 Adria League S6 - Brawl Stars

FIFA21

FIFA21 has been really eventful these previous couple of weeks. The Hrvatski Telekom e-Liga begun, Esport Adria’s Adria Prvenstvo finished its first season and of course, we have been playing the qualifiers every weekend. Some players had their last chance of qualifying last weekend. esad1memic beat Bati and arminho bested erminjamak in the lower half of the quarterfinals.

JasikFifa and HRVoje also proceeded to the semis over Cano1911 and Djosa. After two great semis, JasikFifa and esad1memic met each other in the grand final of the last A1 Adria League FIFA qualifier. The reigning champion, esad1memic, won this duel secured the 100 points of the last qualifier.

These are eight qualified players heading into the last mini playoffs cup:

A1 Adria League S6 - FIFA21 Standings

Until next year, Reboot Infogamer.

It is with a heavy heart that we announce that the A1 Adria League LAN Finals will not be taking place at Reboot Infogamer following the situation around the COVID-19 pandemic.

Heading into the sixth A1 Adria League season, we were pretty optimistic about the possibility of hosting you in Zagreb for the offline finals, but with the safety of our fans, players, and staff in mind – the 6th season will be played out ONLINE! More information about the broadcast, schedule, and format will be published soon so make sure you follow our social media channels to be the first one to know about the aforementioned updates.

With the bad news laid out, we have good ones to share with you as well. The competition in the League is as fierce as ever and we are watching amazing matches in all four titles every week. FIFA has reached its last qualifier, and soon we will know who will be the last player to compete in the FIFA21 playoffs.  Team LAZR are yet to be beaten in Clash Royale’s season, while Flayn eSports are with a pretty good 6/2 record.

During the previous qualifiers, Good Game’s teams were finally eliminated by other competitors in the cup. Even though Good Game Red & Gold have already cemented the first two spots in the playoffs, it is awesome to see other teams catching up to them. When it comes to CS:GO, we are approaching the fifth SWISS round. Shock Bomb upset the best two teams of the fifth season and qualified for the playoffs with a 3-0 record. Blink followed suit at 3-1, and their countrymen, EAGLES secured the third playoff spot.

The League is continuing this week, so grab some popcorn and cheer for your favorite team (safely, at home)!

A Macedonian derby to end the fourth CS:GO SWISS round!

The first part of the fourth SWISS CS:GO round was big for the Kosovar teams in the League. Blink and EAGLES two of the four playoffs spots, and unfortunately, eSportsKosova were eliminated from the tournament.

Blink vs. lvlUP

Probably the biggest derby in the region, Blink and lvlUP ended in favor of Sener “SENER1” Mahmuti’s team this time around. After a 5-1 lead for Blink, lvlUP caught up and tied the match. The first half ended with a 9-6 lead for the former. The Serbian powerhouse managed to come back and take a 10-6 lead on their CT side, but Blink’s players started dominating again and reached their 14th round without a problem. The match went to all 30 rounds, but in the end, Blink closed out Mirage with a close 16-14 victory.

Jon “b0r1” Nuredini’s 4k in the first pistol brought the round in favor of Blink. Even though Vertigo is one of the best maps for the Serbian champions, Blink were in great form and took this match in only two maps. After a 9-2 lead for the Kosovars, Miloš “dEE” Marčeta’s squad tried to go back into the game, but it was already too late. A 16-8 victory meant that Blink will be heading into the playoffs with a 3-1 record, joining Shock Bomb and the team that qualified after them, EAGLES.

eSportsKosova vs. EAGLES

The Kosovar duel between eSportsKosova and EAGLES started on Inferno. EAGLES had a great lead at the beginning of the half and managed to finish their T side with ten rounds. EAGLES’ weak CT side was severely punished by eSportsKosova who caught up to them (13-13), but a semi-buy in round 27 won the 14th round for Serdar “cerber” Mahmuti. Just like Blink’s first map, EAGLES barely escaped overtime and won Inferno 16-14.

Unlike lvlUP vs. Blink and their close Mirage game, this time, the match went to overtime. After both teams kept taking the lead, the regular part of the map ended in a 15-15 tie and we had the chance to watch overtime. EAGLES didn’t let the pressured get to them and closed the map 19-17.

Today, we will have the chance to watch a Macedonian derby between GODZ1337 and Good Game. Both of the teams currently have a 1-2 record and the loser of this match will be eliminated from the sixth season of the A1 Adria League.

Team AMG gets second win in a row; Team LAZR secures first place

The eighth round of Clash Royale confirmed to us that Team LAZR will be the number one team in this season’s group stage. They are still undefeated and with potentially two losses in the last two matchdays, they can still top the group.

Totem Esports and Team KFC were the first teams to enter the battlefield. Essentially, this was a fight for the fourth spot, which is the last one that leads to the playoffs.  Totem swiftly won 2v2 and 1v1 sets, but in KotH, Team KFC had the upper hand.

The fight for the top was next on the menu. Team LAZR and Flayn eSports gave us a fight worth watching. LAZR took home full prize in the 2v2 and Flayn did the same in KotH. The latter team started the 1v1 set with a win, but LAZR’s Neki Lik pulled himself together and secured a win for his team.

The last match of the day happened between Team AMG and Tribe Academy. Tribe took the lead in 2v2 set, but AMG managed to do a comeback and win. KotH was next and Team AMG showed us the potential that was lacking in the earlier stage. In the end, they won it and kept alive their chances of going to the playoffs.
