/0 Comments/in , , , /by

This week in A1 Adria League, the Brawl Stars and FIFA competitors will keep earning points, while the CS:GO teams will get their last chance to qualify for the league.

Brawl Stars

Of all the teams that played in our first Brawl Stars qualifier, Omert4 ruled the Challengermode tournament. Their final opponents were Winx Club, another top team that reached the finals with convincing wins against their enemies. There were teams such as Lightning Strike and Ez Clappers who got to the semifinals but couldn’t advance further, and four more teams that earned 20 points each. The first of six Brawl Stars qualifiers is over, and now this Thursday, the teams will get another chance to earn valuable points.

With one less qualifier than Brawl Stars, the points the players have earned in the first FIFA cup are even more valuable. Miloš “brstimir” Majdevac took the champion’s title this time. Right behind him in the FIFA points race is last season’s winner, Tarik “amke2001” Novo. With players such as Harun “Hara” Parla and Esad “esad1memic”  Memić occupying the third and fourth spots, respectively, this is sure looking to be an amazing season. The second of five qualifiers will be played out this Saturday, what are you waiting for?

Both Saturday and Sunday saw the best teams from the region face-off in a battle for the three spots that the first qualifier offered them. From the teams that signed up to play the open qualifier, eight secured their spots in the next phase. What followed was a single-elimination bracket that decided the three qualified sides. Those teams were Anlaki, Marten Gaming and JESTE. We are eagerly waiting to see them compete in the league, and we are eagerly waiting to see you try to qualify as well.

Anlaki, Marten Gaming, and JESTE qualify for the A1 Adria League!

/0 Comments/in , /by

After our first open qualifier concluded yesterday, today, eight teams fought for three spots in the CS:GO A1 Adria League.

An interesting mix of upcoming and experienced teams signed up for the first of two open qualifiers we are hosting for this season. The best eight teams were supposed to go to the closed qualifier and that’s why the most important matches were those in the Round of 16. VeryBadPlayers were actually very good players as they managed to outplay Dimitar “raniiiN” Avramovski and Donda. Next up, a regional team consisting of players such as Krunoslav “Salted” Katalinić and one of Season 7’s winners, Petar “HOLMES” Dimitrijević, defeated 200DINPEEK and secured the closed qualifiers.

Anlaki are one of the squads that have improved the most during the summer. Today, they kept up with their great recent performances and become one of the eight qualified teams, together with stich and Aimabazi who did so over TENACITYgg. The other half of the matches had some interesting results. Nemanja “nEMANHA” Đukić and 1tap upset Young Glorians, while Aleksandar “HLEB” Todorović’s JESTE was better than NoTalents. Last but not least, Marten Gaming and Immortal Balkans bested 4glory Youngest and KS Geto, respectively.

CS:GO Open Qualifier #1

Today, starting at 12 o’clock, Anlaki and seven other teams met in a single-elimination bracket to decide the three sides that could join the invited teams in the eighth season. Despite their good result in the open qualifier, 1tap were powerless against Anlaki. The same can be said for Aimabazi who lost to JESTE in their quarterfinal match. Marten Gaming outplayed Immortal Balkans, and for the last match of this stage, CKUKO played better than VeryBadPLayers and concluded the quarterfinals.

Next up were the two semis. As the match between CKUKO and VeryBadPlayers lasted longer than the other three, the second semifinal started a bit later. In the meantime, Anlaki and JESTE faced off in their duel to decide the first qualified team. In the end, that team was Anlaki, while JESTE were relegated to the third-place decider. Marten Gaming came out as the winners of the second semifinal at the expense of CKUKO. The third League spot went to JESTE since they convincingly won the third-place decider.

The next and also last CS:GO qualifier will be played on Saturday. So hurry up, assemble your team and SIGN UP.

Anlaki, Marten, JESTE

In our first qualifier for this transitional FIFA season, we watched Miloš “brstimir” Majdevac outplay Tarik “amke2001” Novo and win the main prize.

Our regional FIFA players will get five chances to showcase their skills and earn points before the SWISS stage of the season. Today was the first one, and while brstimir finished first, he was not the only one to earn points. All players played incredibly which is a sign that a great season of FIFA is ahead of us. In the end, eight best players advanced through to the quarterfinals. Last season’s winner, amke2001, beat Nikola “paolimoc” Dobrković in his quarterfinal match, while Harun “Hara” Parla passed through to the semis over Stefan “HardiFifa” Stojanov. In the second pair of quarterfinal matches, the Serbian FIFA veteran, brstimir faced and bested Luka Bukal. The last semifinal spot went to Esad “esad1memic” Memić who was better than Mirza Hasančić in their duel.

As always, the matches between brstimir and esad1memic are tough for both players as they are both brilliant FIFA players. This time, the winner was brstimir and he advanced to the finals together with amke2001. amke2001 won over Hara who was set to face esad1memic in the third-place decider, but the latter decided to forfeit the match and end his first qualifier on the fourth place. In the grand finals, brstimir achieved a 2-0 victory against his bitter rival and earned the main 100 points.

The player break is over and the A1 Adria League is BACK! In our first Brawl Stars qualifier, OMERT4 and Wiinx Club finished first and second, respectively.

As mentioned in the announcement, this season will feature six Brawl Stars qualifiers that will be played on a new platform, Challengermode. Yesterday, our Brawlers entered the arenas again to fight for their first points in this season. Over 70 teams registered for this qualifier, but only eight of them advanced far enough to earn points.

Dominjo Carry, Night_Alpha, QuickMind, and Omerta Blue managed to reach the quarterfinals. Each one of these teams earned 20 points and will play the second qualifier with a small advantage over the other teams. Even further in the bracket, Lightning Strike and Ez Clappers ended their first playday in the 3-4. positions that earn them 50 points each. The grand final was a clash between Wiinx Club and OMERT4. A quick 3-0 victory secured the main 100 points for OMERT4, while Wiinx Club will have to be satisfied with 70. Our next qualifier will be played next Thursday, and registrations are already OPEN!

Brawl Stars is over for this week, but now is the time to see who will outplay the competition in FIFA! Watch our FIFA broadcast tomorrow, starting at precisely 12 o’clock.

Can Noble Elite defeat the favorites in the Clash of Leagues semifinals?

/0 Comments/in , /by

After securing a spot for the LAN finals in Salzburg, Noble Elite are now getting ready for their match against SK Gaming.

SK Gaming is a German Brawl Stars squad that is on the very top of the international scene. Time and time again they have shown their quality and now they are standing between the A1 Adria League team Noble Elite and the grand finals of Clash of Leagues. Before qualifying for the LAN tournament, SK Gaming went undefeated in the first playday of the final Clash of Leagues stage. They 3-0’d their opponents in both matches, first Bulgarian Pros and then PLATOON.

The two teams will play on the 21st of August, with their match starting at 14:30 CEST. Noble Elite have a tough task ahead of them. The combination of players from both Noble Elite Red and BLK has a chance of winning, but SK Gaming are still considered the favorites of this matchup. The other semifinal is between BIG and the Bulgarian team, Chernobyl Dribblers. After that match comes to an end, both of the winners will play for the main prize of €2,000. The second-placed team will win €1,000, while an additional €1,000 will be split between the 3rd-4th teams.

GOOD IS NOT ENOUGH; beat the best in the 8th season of A1 Adria League!

The summer break is slowly coming to an end which means that it is time to announce the new season of the A1 Adria League. Players from all over the region have had plenty of time to improve their skills, work on teamplay, fix their previous mistakes, and prepare for the beginning of Season 8. The game roster remains the same – CS:GO, League of Legends, Brawl Stars, and FIFA will be available to the regional esport athletes in the following months, whether to participate in the league or just follow the action. A1 Adria League is slowly becoming a pillar of the regional Brawl Stars scene, while FIFA is bigger than ever. CS:GO keeps impressing us time and time again and will be featured for the eighth time this season, while League of Legends’ re-introduction to the A1 Adria League made us remember older memories and eagerly expect the upcoming two seasons.

Dimitrije “DiMKE” Veljković has become the undisputed regional CS:GO champion for the fourth time in a row. Split Raiders were on another level and dominated the competition in League of Legends. Tarik “amke2001” Novo was crowned the back-to-back FIFA champion, and last, but most certainly not least, one of the Noble Elite teams, BLK, outplayed the Brawl Stars teams.

Brawl Stars

With small differences compared to the previous season, Brawl Stars is back once again. We keep stating how Brawl Stars is growing in the region day by day, and that has never been more true than right now. There are enormous amounts of teams playing and competing to reach the next competitive level. A1 Adria League is here to help the players in their journey, as seen recently with the Clash of Leagues where we sent two regional teams to the prestigious tournament.

Two more qualifiers will be added to the qualifying stage of the eighth season. With the total number now being six, teams will have more chances to earn points and qualify for the SWISS stage. Once again, we are featuring a BO5/BO3 SWISS stage which will guarantee that only the very best teams make it through to the double-elimination playoffs.

The 16 best teams of every cup will earn points which will be split in the following manner:

First place – 100 points
Second place – 70 points
Third and fourth place – 50 points
Fifth to eight place – 20 points
Ninth to sixteenth place – 10 points

FIFA

Just like Season 5, this season’s FIFA league will take place during the usual transitional period for the franchise. Regional FIFA players will play a similar format as Supercell’s Brawl Stars. This has been an exciting year for the regional scene which has had plenty of tournaments so far, and we are sure that the players have prepared well for the eighth A1 Adria League season.

The five open qualifiers will boast a BO2 single elimination bracket with the semifinal and final matches being BO3. After the qualifiers come to an end, the SWISS league participants will transition to FIFA22. The new FIFA22 will be the home of the A1 Adria League during the SWISS stage (BO3) and the playoffs of the league (double-elimination BO3).

Depending on their results, the top 16 players will receive points after every qualifier comes to an end:

First place – 100 points
Second place – 70 points
Third place – 50 points
Fourth place – 40 points
Fifth to eight place – 20 points
Ninth to sixteenth place – 10 points

CS:GO

CS:GO is back yet again! The domination of Dimitrije “DiMKE” Veljković’s teams continued into 2021 and culminated with their victory in the seventh season. But after the season came to an end, a number of teams, most notably 4glory, Marten Gaming, AIRLYA (ex-Good Game), and anlaki have been playing and winning on the regional scene. An interesting season is certainly before us and the time to sign up and be a part of it is NOW!

Besides the two invited teams, six squads will participate in the eight CS:GO season of the A1 Adria League. The top eight teams of the open qualifier will play in the closed qualifier which will give out three spots in the League. The same format will repeat once again, for the second pair of qualifiers. Six qualified and two invited teams will then play a BO3 SWISS stage and fight for four spots in the single-elimination BO3 playoffs.

With four in a row, can DiMKE & co. make it five or will a new team step up to the challenge?

League of Legends

Probably the biggest format change in the new season will happen in League of Legend’s format. Instead of the Season 7 format which featured national qualifiers and playoffs before reaching the regional playoff stage, this season we will have a simpler format. Regional League of Legends teams will play a total of four qualifiers during which will start a bit later than the other qualifiers.

Two teams from every qualifier will advance directly to the regional playoffs. Here, a double-elimination BO3 bracket will reveal the two teams that will clash in the grand BO5 final of the League. Split Raiders won the comeback season last time, and now is your time to take their title away! Sign up and become the new A1 Adria League LoL champion.

Salzburg, here we come – Noble Elite is qualified for Clash of Leagues finals!

/0 Comments/in , /by

Our regional Brawl Stars players have successfully overcome their first challenge in the playoffs and are now slowly preparing for the top 4 Clash of Leagues LAN finals.

Yesterday we announced the quarterfinal matchups of the Clash of Leagues. The whole day was filled with Brawl Stars action and we were eagerly watching to see which four teams will make it to the final stages of the €5.000 worth tournament. While every single team participating in the playoffs deserved to go to LAN, only four of them could really do it.

First up were SK Gaming and Bulgarian Pros. The Bulgarian team that squeezed past in the group stage was no match for the German powerhouse that is one of the most prestigious teams in Europe. Right after that, we watched Crystal Gaming play against the team that is representing the Adriatic region in the Clash of Leagues playoffs – Noble Elite BLK. Lavvek & co. had an amazing performance, 3-0’d their opponents, and advanced to the second round of the upper bracket where they lost to BIG. They then matched versus Bulgarian Pros and played a five-set nail-biter that saw the regional players finally defeat their opponents in the final set.

While Bulgarian Pros couldn’t do it, the other Bulgarian team in the league, Chernobyl Dribblers, became one of the qualified squads. After an initial loss against BIG, Chernobyl Dribblers made their way to the LAN finals by defeating Crystal Gaming Red and Platoon in the lower bracket. BIG and SK Gaming both qualified from the upper bracket, defeating Noble Elite BLK and Platoon, respectively, in the process.

The entire day action-packed day of Brawl Stars can be (re)watched down below:

Are you ready for the Clash of Leagues finals?!

Crystal Gaming Red are Omerta’s next opponents!

/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.

Make sure to join in the stream and support our squad in their match versus Crystal Gaming Red:

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 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.
