A1 Gaming Weekend Fortnite

On Saturday, the 6th of August all the regional Fortnite players will get a chance to claim the first A1 Gaming Weekend. Fortnite is still one of the most popular games out there. Its battle royale nature makes it a bit harder to organize in an offline environment but that doesn’t mean it still shouldn’t be played. Therefore we decided to spice it up between A1 Adria League seasons.

The competition will be played in a Solo format with five games. It’s free for all the Adria region players so that you can play from home. One of the most important things to note is that you need to have the replay turned on for the sake of the competition. If you thought that we left out the prize pool, you are wrong!

1st place – 300€
2nd place – 100€
3rd place – 50€
4th place – 25€
5th place – 25€

To sign up for the competition make sure to visit our Discord server since that will be the main place for the entire gaming weekend. For the verification, we’ll be using yunite but you can find out more about that by visiting the link: SIGN UP!

This gaming weekend is also special because you will be able to follow all of the action on A1 Adria League channels as well as on the stream of GALLASANDALLA, one of the most popular gaming YouTubers in the region. GALLASANDALLA is also a very skilled and well-known Fortnite player himself which will make the whole tournament even better!

Crashbanter crushes the A1 Gaming Weekend TEKKEN 7 competition!

/0 Comments/in /by

After Roksa took the main prize in PES2021, QSKE Gaming’s Crashbanter was the player that outplayed the competition in our second A1 Gaming Weekend, featuring TEKKEN 7.

Our first TEKKEN 7 cup saw over 40 players sign up and battle it out for the grand prize of €200. The double-elimination bracket proved to be a great addition to the tournament as the actual winner of the tournament, Crashbanter, managed to climb back from the lower bracket and defeat his opponent in his second try.

After a couple of rounds of play, four players remained in the upper bracket. Crashbanter couldn’t stand up to Kalash, while Yamato defeated Chipmeister FiGi. Kalash continued his great streak with yet another win against Yamato who was relegated to the lower half of the bracket. Chipmeister FiGi and Crashbanter met in the lower bracket semis and while QSKE’s veteran was fighting for the win, Yamato was waiting for him in the lower bracket finals. Nevertheless, Yamato was powerless versus Crashbanter who calmly secured his place in the Grand Finals.

Kalash and Crashbanter faced each other for the main prize. Crashbanter was able to end Kalash’s winning streak and reset the score before taking one more 3-0 victory and leaving the Grand Finals and the whole tournament as the undisputed A1 Gaming Weekend TEKKEN 7 champion.

These were the top three A1 Gaming Weekend – TEKKEN 7 players:

1. QSKE Crashbanter – €200
2. Kalash – €100
3. RFD Yamato – €50

PES21: Roksa upsets Kepa_PFC to win A1 Gaming Weekend!

/0 Comments/in /by

PES2021, the first A1 Gaming Weekend game for this year, is now behind us with Roksa taking the title after beating his mentor in the grand finals.

A number of 156 players signed up for our PES2021 tournament. Players from all over the Adriatic region hopped on the field and played against each other for the grand prize of €200.

As the numbers thinned and the best of the best survived, the final rounds of the cup were a joy to watch. Pedjapedja16 beat Eduka1993, while boki_todor fell short to Roksa. On the other half of the bracket, Kepa_PFC, the reigning champion of the PES A1 Gaming Weekends bested Djole95 and in the other match, spora95 won against GRT_pipeGSW.

Even after a great win against Eduka, Pedjapedja couldn’t beat Roksa who managed to become one of the finalists and secure a match against his teammate from AS Roma, Kepa_PFC.

The final match between Kepa and Roksa was even better because of all of the history that these players have together. Namely, before playing for AS Roma, both of them were a part of FC Nantes so they had a lot of chances to play against each other and learn the tricks that each of the players had. Also, Kepa being the more experienced of the two is considered to be a mentor-like figure for Roksa who is newer to the scene.

Roksa pulled off an amazing win against his AS Roma teammate. The first match finished 3-2 in favor of the young gun which gave him an early advantage going into the second match. There, the match ended with the same result but this time, the winner was Kepa which meant that the match was going to a decider game. The third game was a spectacle – Roksa outplayed Kepa_PFC 3-1 and was crowned the champion of this first A1 Gaming Weekend.

A1 Gaming Weekend - PES2021 Bracket - Roksa

The first exciting A1 Gaming Weekend for this year is finished. The most skilled PES2021 players will split the prize pool in the following manner:

1. Roksa – 200€
2. Kepa_PFC – 100€
3. Pedjapedja16 – 50€

While we are waiting for the next season of the League to begin, make sure to sign up for our upcoming TEKKEN 7 tournament which will be played on the 13th of March!

A1 Gaming Weekends return with PES and TEKKEN!

/1 Comment/in , /by

After coming back from a brief hibernation, it’s time to warm up your mouse and keyboard with the upcoming two seasons of the League by hosting two A1 Gaming Weekend tournaments!

The A1 Gaming Weekend cups were an unforgettable part of the last year. Before, during, and after the seasons, the A1 Gaming Weekends were here for the players that didn’t have their favorite games included in the League, as well as for the fans that were eager to watch some action in the days when the League wasn’t on.

This time, we will host two A1 Gaming Weekend tournaments. The first one will feature PES e-Football 2021, while the second one will be TEKKEN 7.

TEKKEN 7

While PES2020 is a known game for the Gaming Weekend series, our other title, TEKKEN 7 is making its debut on the 13th of March. This fighting game is one of the pillars of the loyal and competitive FGC community. As we could witness on multiple occasions before, TEKKENs fighter diversity, big skill cap, and talented regional player base, make it the ideal pick for our second A1 Gaming Weekend title.

The A1 Gaming Weekend – TEKKEN 7 by Zagreb Tekken Showdown will be played using the Smash.gg platform, as it is one of the most famous platforms for this particular title. The fighters will face each other in a double-elimination Best of 3 bracket. You can sign up for the TEKKEN 7 tournament  by clicking the link below:

As one of the founders of the ever-growing PESExpert community stated: “The PES community in our region is really big”. And the players made sure to confirm this claim during the last year when we had over x players every time.

PES21 will boast a single-elimination tournament with Bo1 matches in the first two rounds, while the rest of the cup will be played as a Bo2 with the Away goal rule. Be a part of the first A1 Gaming Weekend for this year by clicking the link below:

We saw a massive turnout from the PES players in our region. Over 190 players were split into 32 groups going in into the tournament.

Koso-93 slipped past PlantifulBat7 and the actual champion of the tournament, Kepa_PFC was better than Flegma_ST. Heading into the quarterfinals, Kepa continued his winning streak with a 2-0 sweep versus Aminzagreb32. MeGustaSrbija secured a spot in the semis, while Aca94dg ended the tournament after losing to the aforementioned player. The last two semifinal spots were filled by StefanKure90 and DENDZAMIN who managed to breeze past Koso-93 and pongpong_hr, respectively.

PvtMole led us through the semifinals in which Kepa_PFC dominated MeGustaSrbija. The second semi was a duel between StefanKure90 and DENDZAMIN which saw the former secure the second spot in the Grand Finals without any difficulties. MeGustaSrbija managed to best DENDZAMIN in the third-place decider and claim his share of the prize pool. In the Grand Finals, we had the chance to see Kepa_PFC beat StefanKure90 after pulling off quite the comeback.

1.Kepa_PFC – €250
