Weekly A1AL recap brings you group stage CS2, EAFC, and BS results!

We are already at the seventh weekly A1AL recap. The finals of the 13th season are very near and things are getting heated up. CS2 finished their fourth round of group stage, EAFC24, and EAFC24 Mobile finished their third, while Brawl Stars had just started their climb through this competition stage. Read on to learn how everything went!

Frutas remain dominant in the A1AL group stage

You might be wondering who was the best in this week’s Brawl Stars competition and the answer once again is the same. Its Frutas. They didn’t lose a single game within sets on their playday.

La Aquilla and Team Cherry may have been the tensest match of the day since the sets were repeated due to tied results. They played practically the longest today and proved they are the two teams closest in terms of skill.

The match between Delulu and M4M was delayed only because of internet problems at M4M. Otherwise, it could have ended 3-0 for M4M, but Delulu took advantage of the opportunity and almost won.

In the match between OOB1 and No Excuses, we saw only a slightly worse opening of OOB1 in the first set, but apart from that they passed without major problems. OOB1 is the team who alongside Frutas are favorites for winning the A1 Adria League competition.

In the lower bracket, we saw the clash of FBI and Team Cherry. FBI even though it has two players who won A1 in the past seasons more than once – that’s not it anymore, they seem like they can’t compete at the level of the league anymore. The second match of the lower bracket was played by Delulu and No Excuses. It was the same tense match that could have gone in any direction. I would say that Delulu deservedly went on with a lot of trouble.

EAFC third round group stage results

In this week’s EAFC24 group stage favorites were victorious. In group A, Marac started and finished without a single defeat, which brought great uncertainty in the fight for second place. Even though Marac had already secured a place in the top 4 he didn’t want to lose the rest. He allowed Cyber Fico to qualify by winning over Klaic. Fico then routinely defeated CLA_JokerTole in both matches, and thus together with Marac made it to the top 4.

In group B, brstimir’s magic and his Ronaldhino secured him an easy spot in the finals, while his three opponents had to battle it out for the last spot. Although perhaps the underdog of the group, CLA_Banderas defeated both Hara and Misko with an incredible game, thus ensuring the CLA team an additional slot in the top 4.

Semifinal EAFC24 matches:

  • CLA_Banderas VS Marac
  • Cyber_Fico VS brstimir

EAFC24 group stage results

In EAFC24 Mobile Serbian players were more successful than the Bosnian. Shaq, Savazver, and Nikolas were victorious, and from Bosnian representatives, Ogi secured a win.

Nikolas surprised everyone with an extraordinary performance against last season’s A1AL vice champion Nerko from Buducnost. Shaq without any problems won 3-0 against his countryman Lazovic and showed his class once again. Furthermore, the biggest surprise of the stage was Ogi, who with two overtime goals made it through. In two separate games, he scored in the 91st and 92nd minute for the win.

CS2 lower bracket results

This week in A1AL we saw two matches from the lower bracket. One between GIZone and BeFive and the second was Kubix against Cupava Veverica. In the first match, GIZone couldn’t be saved, not even by Katalic, who came as a sub. BeFive was simply better. Shooting Miwo and at times miksoz with timely frags kept BeFive in the lead. They barely won their pick on Dust with 13-11, but on Anubis in the second half they completely crushed GiZone and deservedly took the victory. Now they continue their journey in the lower bracket.

The second match started with the dominance of Kubix on Dust, where the Cupava Veverica team had no chance. Run-and-shoot tactics gave excellent results primarily because of good shooting, running was less important there. On Inferno Cupava Veverica managed to make a few good rounds and show their teeth, but a couple of beginner’s mistakes cost them dearly. In the end, Kubix deservedly goes on and schedules their match against BeFive for next week.

CS2 A1AL group stage recap

A1AL recap brings the TOP 8 in both EAFC games and Brawl Stars!

Another week of matches in the A1AL season 13 is behind us. We are getting closer and closer to the finals and to crowning the best player/team of the season. This past week we narrowed it down to the best eight EAFC24 and EAFC24 Mobile players and the best eight Brawl Stars teams. Read on to find out who made the cut!

Frutas on top with 75 points

Let’s begin with the Brawl Stars. The fourth and last qualifier in the A1 Adria League was played on the 12th of this month and there weren’t many surprises. As we know Salada de Frutas so far has been dominating the opponent, with one exception. OOB1 in the third qualifier succeeded in taking max points and defeating Salada in the finals.

This qualifier we were supposed to see the clash of these two teams at the very start of the bracket. However, OOB1 couldn’t make it to the tournament so Salada got an automatic win. That’s all they needed to sweep up the rest of the competition and once again come on top. A fun fact is Salada was playing with a second team so to speak, and still without problems secured the first place. The other side of the bracket was more interesting, and here is who made it to the group stage:

Who will be the new EAFC24 champion in the A1AL?

If we are talking about EAFC24, we will have a new champion of the A1 Adria League this season. Tarik Novo failed to qualify for the playoff stage of A1AL and now a new winner will be crowned. Apart from him, many favorites who had bad form in the first part of the competition didn’t make it through which none of us expected. This opened up a lot of space for the underdogs, which they knew how to take advantage of. It was Marac who eliminated Novo and secured his spot.

From the top of the table, the guys with the most points (Mupi, Misko, Brstimir, Hara, and Marac) made it through to the top eight. The biggest surprise of this tournament stage was CLA_Banderas who only had 50 points, and CLA_Jokertole and Klaic with only 40 points. They were hugging the bottom of the standings and they now might win the league. Next Saturday (20/07) these players will be split into two groups of four, where the best four will advance to the finals.

Four Buducnost players advance in EAFC24 Mobile

In EAFC24 Mobile last matches of group C and D were played on the weekend. The matches in Group C brought us a lot of excitement, but also two goals by a la Zlatan Ibrahimović. The favorite of the group and the champion of the Balkans, Shaq from Fantastic Esports, secured first place with a sure game after his two matches. The second favorite, SavaZver from Spartak, was lucky as the other results coincided and he went to the knockout phase with only seven points.

In group D, Hazne from Buducnost showed all the splendor of his high-pressing tactics, conceding only 3 goals in 6 matches. The second place was taken by former A1AL caster Nikolas7 from Buducnost eSports, who also lived up to expectations. 

Here is who made it through:

  • BUD_Nerko
  • BUD_Nikolas7
  • BUD_skrebo98
  • SPK_SavaZver
  • FE_Shaq
  • SPK_Lazovic
  • BUD_hazne
  • RAB_Ogiii

This list shows how important being in a team is. I would recommend all young players who want to turn pro to follow their lead.  And if you want to find out how to do that, click HERE.

Stay tuned since next week, on Saturday (20/07) you will be able to see clashes between:

  • Nerko VS Nikolas7
  • skrebo98 VS SavaZver
  • Shaq VS Lazovic
  • Hazne VS Ogii

Results of another A1AL group stage are here!

Another week is over, and our competitors in CS2, EA FC 24, and EA FC Mobile are getting closer to securing the top 4 and a place at the LAN event in Zagreb. Find out who already managed to secure these spots and who is still fighting for it in all three main games in the 12th A1 Adria League season.

Shaq is the first EA FC Mobile semifinalist

The results are in, and EA FC Mobile players have played some decider matches this week. From them, one player has secured and advanced to the next stage of the competition, while one other has been eliminated. The successful player was Shaq who won against Ivand with a 2:1 victory. On the other hand, we had to say goodbye to Destroyer who didn’t manage to win a single game in this group stage. It was Nerko who eliminated Destroyer with another 2:1 win. The third game that day ended with the same score between suh12 and Lazar where the former came out victorious.

Stay tuned for more exciting matches and more EA FC Mobile news!

Novo earns a ticket to the finals in Zagreb!

The first ones this week were Nemanja LS92 and Brstimir. It was a very interesting match and the only one that went to the third game on the playday of EA FC 24. Both players enter the match with a score of 1-1. Nemanja won the first match when he scored the winning goal in the end. In the second game, Brstimir returned and leveled the total score at 1-1. In the third game, Nemanja won 3:0 more easily than expected. Brsimir now has a negative score of 1-2 while Nemanja has a 2-1 record.

The second match of the day featured Fica’s routine 2-0 win on aggregate over his colleague from the CLA organization TH3Prod1gy. Also, both players entered this match with a 1-1 ratio. Fico performed better and gave himself an advantage and now one win separates him from the LAN finish.

The most exciting match of the third EA FC 24 group stage round was played by two guys who entered the match with a ratio of 2-0, Novo and Marac. Easier than expected, Novo achieves his third victory and confirms the ticket to Zagreb in November.

Partizan secures playoff in CS2!

The first match of the fourth CS2 group stage round was played between Partizan Esports and RUR Esports. Partizan won the duel with 2:0 on Ancient and Overpass. The first map started in favor of Partizan and they had a two-round advantage at halftime (7:5). RUR managed to draw the score on 7:7 but after that, they missed too many chances and allowed their opponents few crucial clutches. This led to a victory in favor of Partizan with a score of 13:8. Similar scenario on Overpass. Partizan dominated the first half with 8:4 after which RUR took four rounds and evened out the score. However, that was all they managed to achieve, as Partizan didn’t let them win a single round after that and ended the game with the same score (13:8) and secured their spot in the playoffs.

Salamander is eliminated from the group stage

The second game of the week in CS2’s fourth round was played between Megnatos and Salamander. It was more than a dominant win for Megnatos on both maps which means we have to say goodbye to Salamander as they are eliminated. Ancient began with 9:3 on half for Megnatos and ended with four more rounds in favor of them (13:3). On Vertigo the half ended with the same score. It was Tiirex who carried his team to such a dominant victory as he had 18 frags in 10 rounds during the first half. The second half was more or less the same as in the first game. Megnatos once more ends the game with a 13:3 score.

The Suspect puts on a show

Jake Bube vs The Suspect was the most exciting match of this SWISS round where we saw all three maps. Mirage was a mess, to say the least. Even though The Suspect had an amazing first half which ended with a 10:2 score, Jake Bube came back in the match and almost won, making their opponents sweat. A lot of rounds with deagles brought us an exciting finish, where in the end Suspect got the first win with a 13:9 score. Moreover, Ancient was nothing less exciting. It was a very close match and an even score at half-time. The Suspect got the lead in the second half. However, at 10:7 Bube finally woke up and returned fire ending the game in their favor (13:10).

Inferno was a decider. The Suspect shows a great start once again winning five rounds in a row. However, Bube wouldn’t be defeated so easily as the half ended with a 7:5 score. The Suspect kept their lead for a while. At 10:5 Bube attempted another miraculous return, however, Kindo, the hero of their team, couldn’t carry the weight. In the end, it was a 13:10 victory for The Suspect.

Here are the top eight FIFA Mobile players in the 12th A1AL!

The last qualifier’s week is behind us. We had the opportunity to enjoy exhilarating matches in the fourth and last FIFA Mobile qualifiers. As CS: GO, now CS2, and FIFA23, now EA Sports FC 24, finished this part of the tournament, the previous week only one qualifier was played. Now we have the top eight players in all three main games and the group stage can commence.

Bosnian players dominated the FIFA Mobile qualifiers

After four exciting qualifiers in FIFA Mobile, we finally have our best eight players who will advance to the SWISS group stage and compete for the top prize. Besides already-known players who qualified, based on their success, we also had one upset in the fourth qualifier. Namely, the winner of the Gaming Weekend, Andrija 06, was defeated by a new player Mbalug, and is now out of the race for the top eight and the league. He will have to try again next season.

Two players made it to the semi-finals in the fourth qualifier and therefore secured the two group stage places. It was Lazar and Destroyer who bested a competition of 114 players and are safe in groups. Destroyer, Kayozz, and Nerko are representing Bosnia in the 12th A1 Adria League season, while two Maceodian players, Ivand and Tocc also made it. Besides them, Suh12 and Shaq are also one of the best eight players this season. Watch them compete in EA Sports FC Mobile this Friday on our YouTube or Twitch channel!

MATCH 1: Tomislav “suh12” Peula VS Lazar “Lazar” Maras

MATCH 2: Amar “Kayozz” Hadziabdic VS Benjamin “Destroyer” Saldum

MATCH 3: Ivan “Shaq” Novakovic VS Hristijan “Tocc” Tocev

MATCH 4: Ivan “Ivand” Donevski VS Nermin “Nerko” Zdralovic

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.

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

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.
