CS:GO, FIFA and BS players are ready for LAN!

/0 Comments/in , , , , , /by

Season 11 in the A1 Adria League is coming to an end. The group stage is officially over, and the teams in multiple games are ready to compete for the top prize, the title, and the right to call themselves the best. Who will win the 11th season in FIFA, BS, and CS:GO find out this weekend in Zagreb!

Zero Tenacity is one step closer to defending the title

Four best teams in this CS:GO seasons were Jake Bube, Portugal, Zero Tenacity, and Infernus Esports. Only two have made it to the finish line, and their battle will be held at Zagrebacki velesajam during a Reboot Games Weekend event. Zero Tenacity once again secured a place in the finals, winning by a considerable margin against team Infernus Esports. Z10 was dominant on both maps, with scores of 16:6 on Mirage and 16:2 on Nuke. As expected of them, they justified the role of favorites.

The second finalist is team Jake Bube. Suppose I might say a slight surprise over team Portugal who had a well-known name in the region DEPRESHN in their roster. Jake Bube played solid two matches, winning with the same result, 16:13 on Mirage and Inferno. The battle in the finals will be tense, but the advantage has to be given to Zero Tenacity as the defenders of the title and last year’s champions.

Novo is back for the fifth FIFA title.

We witnessed an exciting FIFA23 competition in this season of A1AL. Novo, Esad, Fico, and Marec are the best four players coming out victorious. Many familiar names again at the end, and only two will have the chance to battle for the title at the LAN event in Zagreb. Esad and Novo got 2:0 wins against their opponents in the semifinals. Esad bested Fico, while Novo was better than Marec.

Esad and Novo battled it out in the winner bracket’s finals, with Esad as the victor. He defeated Novo with a 2:1 score. Thus Novo fell to the loser bracket, where he had to beat Fico, who previously eliminated Marec in the lower bracket semifinals. Novo defeated Fico with a 2:1 score and got a chance for revenge against Esad.

In the best-of-five match, Novo will have his shot against Esad in the finals. Since Esad won the winner bracket finals, he will have a win advantage in the grand finals.

The second title for Esad or the fifth one for Novo?

Salada and Menace in the BS finals

This season one of our previous main games, Brawl Stars, had a different format. Instead of competition lasting throughout the whole season, Brawlers battled it out in two qualifiers. played on May 25th and June 1st. The two best teams who came out victorious out of the qualifiers are Salada de Frutas, now just Frutas, and Menace2Society.

Frutas was dominant in the first qualifier; they even eliminated their opponents in the upcoming finals Menace2Society, and some familiar names in the region, such as Jazavci, La Aquilla, etc. In the second qualifier, with Frutas out of the way, Menace2Society got their chance to qualify, which they did.

The finals will be tense in the Brawl Stars competition since former teammates will now be opponents. Namely, Decai, who won the BS tournament with Omerta last year, had Protic as his teammate. Protic is now a part of Menace2Society, while Decai plays for Frutas. Don’t miss the action this weekend in Zagreb!

Entropiq won the PUBG title.

One of the mini-tournaments played recently was in PUBG. Once again, the favorites were clear, and they bested the competition once again to defend the title for the second time. So far, we had three PUBG tournaments in three seasons in the A1 Adria League, and all three went into the hand of Entropiq. This team is a well-known name in both regional and worldwide tournaments. The best player in the 11th season of A1AL was Lukarux, who won the MVP prize.

A1AL second weekly recap is here! Check out what happened in CS:GO, FIFA and R6

During the previous week we had the opportunity to follow some of the best duels in FIFA23, CS:GO and Rainbow Six Siege, or R6. There were some surprises, but also some favorites got the expected wins.

Esad lost against CLA_TH3Prod1gy in the biggest surprise of the evening

In FIFA23 second round, a lot of exciting matches were seen. In the first duel, CLA_marac90 was playing against Dani. A big win for Matija Marković after a lousy start to the Swiss stage last week. The competitor of the CLA organization controlled the result during this duel and had an advantage all the time that he did not let go until the end.

The second match was a significant loss for esad1memic who lost against CLA_TH3Prod1gy. Tin was calmer in the penalty shootout of the first match, and then a turnaround in the second game in which the champion of the fifth season had a goal advantage, but Skrgatic deservedly celebrated with Mbappe’s goals. The final score was 2:0 (the first match – penalties 6:5, and the second ended with a 2:1 result).

In the Novo – Jasik big duel, in the first match, Jasik scored two goals in the first 15 minutes and managed to keep the lead until the end, even though Novo was only a goal behind at one point with a missed penalty. A completely different picture was seen in the second leg, where Tarik Novo played like in his best days and with 4:1 secured the playing of the third match. Novo took the lead in the decisive duel, and Cumbo equalized by half-time, but then two goals from Tarik continued for the final 3:1. (final score 2:1)

CLA_FIFAFICO and Parla will play their duel on the weekend off-stream. The winner of that duel will play against Novo next week.

TeamForAdria is in the finals of the lower bracket

The first two R6 matches were played off-stream because they could not play the game the week before because of problems Ubisoft was having. In the first match against EU45thGremlins, 5 Big Guys celebrated, and in the second, it was BobTheBuilder who came out as the victor. Both matches ended with a score of 7:5, so it was very tense and in the end, 5BG lacked a bit of luck.

The third match, which was the decider, did not take place, BottomG surrendered the match because they could not gather (internal problems), thus TeamForAdria automatically won 2:0 and qualified for the lower bracket final.

Z10 and Portugal will fight for the first spot in the playoffs

In what can only be described, as a tense week in CS:GO, Zero Tenacity and Portugal got their second win of the group stage. They now have an overall 2:0 score and will fight it out next week. The winner of that match will earn themselves a spot in the playoff stage of the competition.

Team-one had a close game against Opusti se, but in the end, they managed to secure a victory with a score of 16:12 on Ancient. The best player in that match, from team-one was maQuein with 29 frags.

In the second match of the day, Zero Tenacity was fighting JESTE on Inferno. nEMANHA and his team got an easy win against their opponents with a 16:7 score. Z10 simke was without a doubt the best player of that match with 32 kills.

The third match was the most dominant one, for the side of Portugal. The score of 16:3 says a lot about this fact. DEPRESHN and A Ego had an amazing match. Both of them scored more than 20 kills.

The match between Infernus and Confusee was not played on the same day as the rest, but it will be played off-stream.

Favorites justified the role in both FIFA23 and CS:GO!

The first round of the group stage in the A1 Adria League was played throughout the past week. In the first round of the SWISS group stage, we saw favorites coming on strong and securing themselves the first victories, and with each win, they get closer to securing playoffs, and a spot in the top 4.

Bosnian FIFA23 players dominant

We witnessed some exciting matchups in the first round of the FIFA23 group stage. From the qualifiers, we got the best eight in this competition, of which four are Croatian players and four come from Bosnia and Herzegovina. In the first round out of four, as many as three Bosnian players defeated their opponents.

The most interesting match was the last one of the day, a Bosnian duel between two very familiar names in the A1 Adria League and the region. Esad1memic got maybe the hardest opponent in this first round, battling against none other than Tarik Novo, the four-time A1AL FIFA champion. Even though Esad put up a fight, Tarik Novo seems to have in his mind the fifth title, and he is off to a good start. He defeated his opponents with a 2:1 score.

In the other matches, Hara defeated CLA_marac90 with another 2:1 score, as well as Jasik who with the same score was better than CLA_TH3Prod1gy. The easiest win was achieved by CLA_Fico who defeated Dani without losing a game (2:0).

The second round of FIFA will be played on May 12th.

Here is who got the first win in CS:GO

The teams who were successful in the first round of the CS:GO group stage were favorites. They did what everyone expected from them and defeated their opponents. Zero Tenacity, Portugal, Jake Bube, and JESTE got their first wins and are in a great spot before the second round of groups.

In the first match, team-one was battling Jake Bube on Mirage, and the match was intense. In the end, it was Jake Bube who came out victorious with a 16:13 score, where the best player was DiMKE with 27 frags. The most dominant victory, looking at the score, went into the hands of team Portugal. DEPRESHN and Maki got a 16:9 win over team Opusti se on Inferno. The fact that all five players of Portugal had better stats than their opponents says how dominant they were.

The other two matches both got the same result of 16:10. Zero Tenacity bested Confuse and JESTE defeated Infernus Esports. The best players in Z10 were nEMANHA, simke, and brutmonster, while the top fragger in JESTE’s win was HLEB with 26 kills.

The second round of the CS:GO group stage in the A1 Adria League is scheduled for May 14th.

Ivanklar wins the fourth FIFA qualifier and makes it to groups!

/0 Comments/in , , /by

The fourth and last FIFA23 qualifier in the 11th season of the A1 Adria League is finished, and we received our best eight players who will continue their battle for the title. The top 8 players are ready for the group stage in this season’s competition, and Ivanklar as the winner of the last qualifier is one of the contenders for the title.

FIFA group stage without Brstimir and Gruby

The rule of this year’s qualifiers it seems to have been “win a qualifier and secure the spot in groups”. For each qualifier, we saw a different player take a maximum of 100 points. This amount had been enough for all four players to make it to the next stage of the competition. As it was mentioned before, Hara (1st Q winner), Jakela (2nd Q winner), Tin Skrgatic (3rd Q winner), and now Ivan “Ivanklar 1903” Klaric, the winner of the fourth, all secured groups.

Besides them, the competition has been fierce, and the best indicator of that is the fact that players like Brstimir didn’t make it. The Serbian player didn’t show his usual performance, and with only 30 points was eliminated. Also, the defending FIFA champion Gruby failed to qualify for groups. Gruby was the runner-up in the 1st qualifier, and there he won 70 points. But after that, no more points came for the youngster, and he was ninth on the scoreboard, while eight make it further.

Excluding the four winners of the qualifiers, some other familiar names secure their spots in groups. Our four-time champion Tarik Novo gathered 110 points and finished in sixth position. Also, Esad1memic was showing determination again and secured himself a fourth place with 120 points. Great results were seen by FIFAFICO who is in second place with 130 points, just below the first seed Harun “Hara” Parla who accumulated 180 points.

The first round of the FIFA23 group stage will be played on May 5th.

 

Eight R6 teams are ready for the A1AL group stage!

/0 Comments/in , , /by

All four R6 Siege qualifiers have ended, and the best eight teams have advanced further. The last ones that were the most successful in the 4th qualifier in the A1 Adria League are Team For Adria, Otpisani, and MIPSRBIJA.

Norm Tips disqualified

Qualifiers have ended and the group stage in R6 Siege is coming sooner than you think. On April 29th, which is next Saturday, the Siegers are returning with more action. Eight teams will be divided into two groups of four, where the top two teams from each group will advance to finals.

The last R6 qualifier for the A1 Adria League brought together 5 teams, but due to the disqualification of the Norm Tips team, due to problems during team registration, one more place in the league became available and the fourth qualifier enabled the entry of one additional team. This is why three teams from the last qualifier made it to the group stage. Norm Tips on the other hand didn’t follow the rules dictating that every team must have three regional players, which is why they won’t be competing in the league.

Here are the best eight R6 teams

The first BO1 match was between the team Team For Adria and AshMain. That game without problems went in favor of the team “Team For Adria” with a score of 7-1 at ClubHouse. Freq, who is part of the professional team TT9, stood out as the best player on that map with 13 frags. 

After that, the decider matches were played between teams Firma ILLegale and Team For Adria, and MIPSRBIJA who took on Otpisani. In the first duel, the win went into the hands of Team For Adria which was expected. Freq was carrying again, showing dominating performance with 32 frags in 16 rounds. Kafe and Border with scores of 7-1 sent Firma ILLegale to the decider match for the third, last place in the league.

The duel between “MIPSRBIJA” and “Otpisani” started on Skyscraper, where the Otpisani took a 7-0 victory and relaxedly entered the second map, Border, where they secured a place in the league with a score of 7-3.

The match for the last place in the R6 groups was a bloody one. On Border, MIPSRBIJA took the win against Firma ILLegale with 8-6, while on ClubHouse the winning result was 7-5, again in the favor of BosanacAbuser and his team.

The top eight:

  • 5 Big guys
  • Homies in Paris
  • EU45th Gremlins
  • Bob the Builder
  • DamjanBotFrag
  • Team For Adria
  • Otpisani
  • MIPSRBIJA

Second time’s the charm for Homies in Paris and EU45th Gremlins!

/0 Comments/in , , /by

The second Rainbow Six Siege qualifier in the A1 Adria League finished on Saturday, April 8th. Two more teams have joined the league and secured their spots in the group stage of this competition. We had two best-of-three series between four registered teams, and the ones that came out victorious were Homies in Paris and EU45th Gremlins.

Two more R6 teams join the league

As we have seen last week, NORM TIPS and 5 Big Guys were the strongest teams in the first qualifier and therefore made it to the group stage. This Saturday two more teams joined them, with slightly fewer opponents. Only four teams signed up so we had two Bo3 matches between Homies in Paris and Team Jorgovan, and EU45th Gremlins who were against Imal Tanje.

Homies in Paris showed excellent performance in the previous qualifier, reached the decider match, but failed to win it. This time they left nothing to chance and with an easy win secured the spot in the groups. On Theme Park they defeated Team Jorgovan with a 7:0 score, while on Border the result was 7:2, again in favor of “Homies”.

As was already mentioned EU45th Gremlins were the victors in the second match. They also competed in the first qualifier, but under a different name, AnimeorLoss. They took the win over team Imal Tanje on maps ClubHouse and Oregon with dominating scores of 7:0, and 7:3 on the second map. This team was eliminated in the first qualifier by 5 Big Guys, and now that they have made it to the groups, they will seek revenge against them.

The next, third qualifier in Rainbow Six Siege is scheduled for next week, April 15th. Then we will find out who will join these four teams, and leave only two spots in the group stage. You can sign up for the third qualifier HERE!
