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.

You can expect everything – from indie game dev projects to the biggest regional esports event – the A1 Adria League finals.

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

lvlUP overcome Good Game to secure the last spot in the playoffs!

And the final game of the League is ready for the playoffs. CS:GO’s SWISS round was played out today and the reigning champions will fight for their third title in a row in the playoffs of the sixth season.

The final match of the group stage was a clash between Good Game and lvlUP. Good Game were coming from a clean victory versus their Macedonian rivals, GODZ1337, and during the fourth SWISS round, lvlUP suffered a bitter loss against their own rivals, Blink.

We only had the chance to watch two maps as lvlUP’s dominance stomped Good Game on Inferno and Dust2. Inferno was lvlUP’s pick and after Good Game took the first three rounds, the Serbian players playing with David “Dav” Miljanić instead of Miloš “dEE” Marčeta woke up and took the map with a 16-7 score.

The match headed to Dust2 which was Good Game’s pick. It was a similar scenario to Inferno – Good Game and lvlUP were neck and neck during the first half, but lvlUP’s T side proved to be absolutely phenomenal. The executions were great, every clutch went lvlUP’s way and even with a new player in their roster, the champions defended their title and will be facing Shock Bomb in the playoffs.

These are the first matches of the A1 Adria League CS:GO playoffs:

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.

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:

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:

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.

Good Game’s squads eliminated in the quarterfinals; Ajdin977 triumphs in FIFA!

The eleventh Brawl Stars and the second-to-last FIFA qualifiers were played out during the previous week. Both of these titles are nearing the main playoffs stage and the competition is as fierce as ever.

Brawl Stars

The eleventh A1 Adria League Brawl Stars qualifier was filled with surprises. For the first time, a team different than one of the Good Game squads has finished first and earned the 100 winner’s points. The quarterfinals saw two massive upsets happened. First, team Inder Bot bested Good Game’s Red squad. FA Deadly outplayed Ekipa 69 and Code Lyoko were the better team in their match against O9 Gang.

The last quarterfinal match saw Good Game Gold eliminated by Bogisha69 and his Zabranjeni trio. The semis were pretty interesting. FA Deadly and Code Lyoko advanced and fought for the chance to be the first non-GG team to triumph in this Brawl Stars season. In the end, Code Lyoko came out on top and secured the first prize of the twelfth qualifier.
