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

/0 Comments/in , , , , /by

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.

On Sunday, April 30th, the last CS:GO qualifier was played. We finally got the best eight CS:GO teams that will be competing in the SWISS group stage in the 11th season of the A1 Adria League. The last two teams that were victorious in a qualifier were Opusti se and Portugal.

Here are the top 8 CS:GO teams!

The biggest tournament in the A1 Adria League has always been in Vavle’s FPS game. This season is no different, except for the prize pool, which is now 7000 euros. The best eight teams who will be fighting for this prize pool and the title of the best regional team are Infernus, Confusee, team-one, Glory4, JESTE, Opusti se, Portugal, and the current title defenders Zero Tenacity. Z10 is the biggest favorite to win the whole thing obviously, but not just because they are defending the title, but for the excellent performance they are constantly showing.

One of the serious contenders for the title is team Glory4 where the best regional players have gathered. Andr1xx, sarenii, and c0llins will, under the leadership of Mladen Juric, try to make it to the top. It remains to be seen if they will be successful, but now the real battle begins. The one big name we won’t be seeing this season is Blink, whose CS:GO team just got disbanded.

In the last qualifier, however, the teams that got the last two places in the group stage are Opusti se and Portugal. They bested the competition and rightfully found their place in the top 8. In the decider matches Portugal was better than Klan RUR with a 2:1 overall score. Klan RUR managed to take one map for themselves, but DEPRESHN’s team was at the end of the day better. On the other side of the bracket, Opusti se got an easy win against DopaminersGG with 16:14 on Mirage, and 16:6 on Inferno.

The CS:GO group stage will begin on May 7th, so don’t miss the action!

The qualified teams:

  • Zero Tenacity
  • Infernus
  • Confusee
  • team-one
  • Glory4
  • JESTE
  • Opusti se

On April 23rd the third CS:GO qualifier brought us two more teams who, with their excellent performance, advanced to the group stage of the 11th season in the A1 Adria League. So far teams who have secured spots in the league are Zero Tenacity, Infernus, Confusee, and team-one. Two more teams joined them yesterday, after besting the competition, Glory4 and team JESTE.

Juric led Glory4 to victory

What to say, except that once again the battle in the CS:GO tournament was more exciting than ever. This time 43 teams were competing in the third qualifier, but only two could go further. Those two were Glory4, the absolute favorite of this qualifier, and team JESTE. Why was Glory4 such a favorite you may wonder? Well, considering their monstrous roster, the answer is simple. Led by Mladen Juric from Relog Media, Glory4 didn’t just win the qualifier, they demolished the competition. Well-known names such as andr1xx, sarenii, and c0llins showed the region they are here to win the trophy.

On their way to the decider match, Glory4 took down good teams, such as KlanRUR, making it then to the bo3 duel against SRBIJETINA. The games were played on Anubis and Ancient, and the scores were 16:11, and 16:10 in favor of Glory4, which secured their spot in groups.

On the other side of the bracket, JESTE was the most successful, battling ODZADZARI in their decider match. There the fight was much closer, and the series ended with a 2:1 score in favor of JESTE. The first map, Mirage went into overtime, showing how close their duel is gonna be. JESTE took the win there with 19:16, while their opponents were victorious on Ancient with a similar score in overtime at 19:17. The situation on Inferno, the last map, was less tense, as team JESTE defeated their opponents with a 16:10 result.

Only two spots in the group stage are vacant at the moment. The last qualifier will be played on April 29th. Don’t miss the chance to fight against the best in the region and the A1 Adria League. Sign up HERE!

Confusee and team-one make it to the CS:GO group stage!

/0 Comments/in , , /by

Two CS:GO qualifiers are already finished, where the four teams secured the group stage in the 11th A1 Adria League season. We saw 47 teams competing for their spot in the next stage, while only two best reached their goal. Teams Confusee and team-one bested their competition and joined the winners of the 1st qualifier Zero Tenacity and Infernus.

Confusee enters the league with a comeback

One more week has passed, and one more qualifier in the CS:GO competition has been played. This week, on April 16th, two more teams made it to the group stage of A1AL, Confusee, and team-one. Needless to say, the competition was fierce, considering we had almost 50 registered teams. We also saw a couple of familiar names, such as Blink. Gulito and his team didn’t make it far, they were eliminated in the second round.

However, the ones that did make it into the top four and the decider matches were Confusee who was battling team MYE, and team-one and their opponents ZIEKIPA. The first battle between Confusee and MYE was an absolute banger. MYE took the first game on Inferno with a dominating win with a 16:4 score. Bob was a force to be reckoned with on mid with his AWP, and his performance led his team to victory. Unfortunately, their success didn’t last long. At the beginning of the second map, Confusee takes the steering wheel in their hands and dominates their opponents. The score on Mirage was 16:10, while the situation on the third and deciding map was really close. Both teams gave their best on Ancient, but when Confusee took the CT side, they won eight rounds in a row, cementing their win, and making it to the group stage.

On the other side of the bracket, the match between team-one and ZIEKIPA was finished after just one map. 16:7 on Anubis, and a forfeit on the second map brought team-one their spot in the groups.

The third qualifier is scheduled for April 23rd. Sign up for it HERE!

 

Zero Tenacity and Infernus were successful in the first CS:GO qualifier!

/0 Comments/in , , /by

The main game in the 11th season of the A1 Adria League and the tournament with a giant prize pool has started. On Sunday, April 9th more than 40 teams participated and competed for their spot in the group stage of the CS:GO competition. In the first qualifier, the winners were Zero Tenacity, last season’s champions, and Infernus NXT. They secured their spot in the next stage and are now awaiting their opponents.

Zero Tenacity on their way to defend the title

In the middle of November last year we crowned the CS:GO champions for the jubilee 10th season of the A1 Adria League, Zero Tenacity. And yet, they are already slowly making their way into the competition, for a chance at another title. Out of 42 teams, Zero Tenacity, alongside Infernus, was the best team in the qualifier. They swiped their opponents through the bracket and made their way to the decider best-of-three series where they took down Klan Rur. Nemanha and his team achieved wins on Anubis and Overpass. On Anubis their victory was as dominating as it can be, winning this map with only 2 lost rounds (16:2). On Overpass they were a force to be reckoned with as well, but the enemy got slightly more rounds in their pocket. That second map ended with a 16:6 score.

On the other side of the bracket, the best team was Infernus NXT. The team led by NEBO in the decider bo3 match defeated DopaminersGG. The first map was Inferno and it was a really close one, as we saw the match go into overtime, but in the end, Infernus was successful on Inferno with a 28:26 score. The next game was a lot easier and there Infernus won with a 16:5 on Anubis.

There are eight spots overall in the group stage, and two are already filled. More chances are offered in the three remained qualifiers. The second qualifier for CS:GO is scheduled for next week, April 16th. You can sign up for it HERE!

Zero Tenacity claims the CS:GO trophy!

/0 Comments/in , , /by

Zero Tenacity managed to outplay the KTRL to become the champion of the tenth season of the A1 Adria League! The grand finals were played in Zagreb at Reboot Games Weekend in front of a live audience after a two-year pause due to the pandemic. Fans and viewers online got finals worthy of a tenth jubilee.

Strong performance on LAN secures the trophy for Zero Tenacity

The amazing best-of-five series started off on Nuke. The KTRL had a strong start on the T side and managed to close the half with an 8-7 loss, which is amazing for an attacking side on Nuke. They continued to play well on the CT side almost running away with the first map but Z10 had something to say about that. Miloš “dEE” Marčeta and co. got to the 14 rounds and then it was all Z10 until the end.

Z10 almost pulled another amazing comeback on Mirage after KTRL’s 11-4 lead on the half. This time the KTRL got to 15-5 result during their CT side but stopped again. It looked like they were going to lose another huge lead but this time they successfully closed the map with 16-13.

Inferno was another close encounter in which Miloš “dEE” Marčeta showed phenomenal individual performance but unfortunately for him and his team, it wasn’t enough. It was the first time in the series that Z10 had the lead after the first half. The 9-6 lead on the CT side was enough for them to close it out 16-12. It seemed like that was the breaking point in the series.

Dust 2 was the last map played and Z10 won by a landslide. It was like KTRL just disappeared from the server. The 11-4 on the T side was more than enough for Z10 to win the map and the grand finals in the next six rounds of the second half. Adin “brutomonster” Husić was a real monster on Dust2 finishing the map with a 2.08 HLTV rating, which helped him reach the best overall individual rating in the series as well.

Zero Tenacity A1AL S10 KTRL

Both teams know each other really well. Miloš “dEE” Marčeta and Filip “aVN” Belojica have won the A1 Adria League in seasons 4, 5, and 6, playing together. This time one had to be on the losing side and it ended up being dEE. For sure, he was more than happy that aVN won the finals if he couldn’t. With the CS:GO finals of the A1 Adria League Season 10 we are officially concluding this season. Well, not just yet. The competition is over for this year but we’ll take a good look back before we start preparing for the next one.

Brawl Stars, FIFA23 and CS:GO started their race to the title!

/0 Comments/in , , , /by

Last week we had a lot of exciting match-ups in all our games. With the start of the group stage, things are starting to heat up. Brawl Stars, FIFA23 and CS:GO started their race to the title in the first round of the SWISS group stage in the tenth season of the A1 Adria League. Here is a recap of the week.

Aloha and Blink dominant

The tenth CS:GO season in the A1 Adria League started explosively. We had two match days, and in the end, the two teams who took both wins and were the most successful are Aloha and Blink. Blink is a well-known team in the region, and in Europe as well. This win was expected from both teams, seeing that they were the invited ones. While the qualified ones had to fight their way up here. Blink took their two wins against ILLYRIANS and KTRL. While the match against KTRL was an easy one for the Albanian team, they had a tougher task versus ILLYRIANS but the final result was 16:13 in favor of Blink.

On the other side, Aloha who also has a 2:0 score after two play days was completely dominant in both CS:GO matches. They defeated Zero Tenacity as well as Psihocastic. Against Z10 Aloha only allowed their opponents 2 rounds, while in the game against Psihocastic the result was 16:3. Psihocastic and Velez Mostar were the teams with no wins so far and they are sitting at the bottom of the standings, while the rest have one win and one defeat.

Bosnian players successful in FIFA23

The new FIFA wasn’t a big problem for the players. The start of the group stage brought us FIFA23, instead of FIFA22 in which the players competed during the qualifications. The first match that opened the group stage in this competition was Novo versus Bruno. The four-time champion didn’t have a lot of trouble against the Croatian representative. It was a clear win for Novo with a result of 2:0. The other three matches all had a 2:1 score, and the players that came out victorious were Encika and Parla, also Bosnian players, and Brstimir as the Serbian FIFA virtuoso. In the end, favorites justified their role.

Salada de Frutas in questionable form this season

The A1AL Brawlers debuted this season in the group stage. We have seen many interesting matches, one almost reverse sweep, and a disappointing performance by the champions.

The most successful teams in the first round of the group stage were OMERT4, who was the first seed, and GreekGod. Both of these teams won their games with a dominant 3:o score. OMERT4 took down La Remontada while team GreekGod was victorious against Rolex, a team that won one of the Qualifiers Cups.

On the other hand, the most interesting match in the first round was played by Jazavci and Extreme Masters. Everything looked like a clean win for the former team seeing as they started the duel with 2 wins. But when Extreme Masters realized it was Bo5, they put it in second gear and almost reverse-swept their opponents. Jazavci however didn’t allow that, winning the last match and scoring in Brawl Ball avoiding overtime.

The biggest surprise was Salada de Frutas. The current Brawl Stars champions in the A1 Adria League are showing bad form since the beginning of the season. They didn’t manage to win a single qualifier, they were seeded fourth and now DzonDzon and his team lost the first game. Salada was against team La Aquilla who defeated them with a 3:1 score.

Zero Tenacity and ILLYRIANS are back in CS:GO group stage

/0 Comments/in , /by

The third CS:GO qualifier finished on Sunday, and we have completed the group stage of the A1 Adria League in this competition with 8 teams. Zero Tenacity and ILLYRIANS are the last two teams who entered the next stage of the competition.

Last spots secured

The tenth A1 Adria League season in the CS:GO competition is ready to start. The last two, out of eight teams secured their spot in the group stage. KATAI, and Velez Mostar made it to the group stage in the first qualifier, while in the second one we saw KTRL and Psihocastic come out victorious. The third and last one as we saw on Sunday went into the hands of two familiar teams in A1AL. Both Zero Tenacity and ILLYRIANS were competing in the last season. Teams led by nemanha and connex511 made it through with an outstanding performance.

The battle was as fierce as ever. The competition was tough, and there were only two spots left. We saw a couple of surprises as well. Teams such as Cyber Wolves didn’t manage to qualify, even though they were really close to achieving their goal. A well-known name in the CS:GO community XTEAM, also didn’t make it, which is the biggest surprise of the season. Gejmzilla and his team have already shown what a great team they are, in regional and in European competitions as well.

In the semifinals, Zero Tenacity eliminated Cyber Wolves and secured their spot. And in the other semifinals, it was ILLYRIANS who demolished their opponent, team Premkaenjoyers with a 2:0 win.

Besides the 6 qualified teams, two more invited ones will join the competition. Who the invited teams are will be revealed soon enough. So make sure to follow us on social media for more information. The group stage starts on October 5th.
