Explosive start of the new A1AL season in the first qualifiers!

Season 14 of A1AL has started and competitors from CS2, Brawl Stars, and EAFC played their first qualifier cups. We have seen some surprises and some expected triumphs this weekend. The competition is fierce this year and we already have a lot of strong players and teams signed up. Each qualifier will be of utmost importance as this season you will want to secure your group stage spot as soon as possible. Read on to see the results of the first A1 Adria League qualifier.

S13 finale in the first Brawl Stars qualifier

Brawlers were the first to open the 14th season of A1AL. Many familiar teams competed. From our champions Salada and vice champions OBII (now going under 76ers), to Delulu, OMERTA, Team Cherry, FBI, and many more. The games were pretty clean up until finals where all five matches were played. But let’s start from the beginning.

On the one side of the bracket, OMERTA and Delulu were doing very well until they ran into Salada who won 2:0 against both teams. Gertrude, a new team with familiar players, did give Salada some resistance in the semifinals but not enough for them to win. With a 2:1 win Salada secured a spot in the finals.

On the other bracket side, team GospodinAdry, made out of previous A1AL champions, was demolishing competition. However, in the semifinals they lost against S13 vice champions 76ers with a 2:0 score. This brings us to the finals where we saw a replay of last seasons finale. The 76ers really gave their best to defeat Salada but in the end, our champions prevailed winning with a 3:2 score and securing a maximum of 20 points.

The second BS qualifier will be played on the 20th, so make sure to sign up HERE!

Brawl Stars Q1 A1AL S14

Nikolas7 wins the first A1AL EAFC24 Mobile qualifier

FC Mobile or EAFC24 Mobile is once again a big hit in the A1 Adria League. Just from the first qualifier, we can see how tight the competition will be considering a total of 190 players competed. Not many surprises were seen in the top 256 and top 128 stages of the qualifier. However, things started to get heated as we got top 64 and especially top 32. The biggest surprise of this stage was our two-time A1AL champion Shaq being eliminated. Three-time BFL winner lost to Nikolas7, ex-A1AL caster, and S13 third place.

Nikolas7 showed a great performance in the first qualifier and quite deservedly won the most points and is sitting in the first spot. He should feel pretty secure and confident at the top with 180 points, but nothing is decided yet. His road to the finals was not easy. He eliminated Lazar from Buducnost in the quarterfinals and Jaha in the semis who ended up taking third place and 80 points.

On the other side of the bracket, maybe the biggest surprise of the qualifier, HugoBOSS was sweeping everyone in his sight determined to get to the finals. Rabotnicki eSports player gave his best to win the qualifier but Nikolas7 came out victorious with a 2:0 win. HugoBOSS can be satisfied as he is in second place with 100 points.

The second qualifier will be played on the 21st of September and you can sign up for it HERE!

FC Mobile Q1

The S10 EAFC champion is back and ready to win!

The EAFC first qualifier was extremely tense as 100 players battled each other to win as many points as possible. No one had an easy road but some players showed their supremacy. Season 10 champion Gruby and last season’s winner Marac were the one to clash in the finals. But besides them, many familiar players were participating in this qualifier cup. Some of them are Hara, Cyber_Fico, our six-time champion Novo, and the CLA clan.

In the upper side of the bracket, Hara did well and reached the quarterfinals but got eliminated by CLA_TUNA. The member of the CLA organization then try to take down GAME ON Marac, but our defending champion was stronger. That win secured him a spot in the finals where Gruby was waiting.
Gruby’s road to that final wasn’t easy either. In the semifinals, he defeated Misko_fifa, who previously eliminated Tarik Novo in the quarterfinals.

The first finals game was Gruby’s domination who scored six goals against his opponent’s two. However, in the second game, Gruby took his guard down which Marac knew how to take advantage of. In the third match, Gruby wakes up and takes the lead securing 100 points and probably a spot in the next stage of the competition.

The next EAFC24 qualifier is played on the 21st of September, so sign up right away by clicking HERE!

Oto100 and GOT secure the first CS2 group stage spot in A1AL

The best regional CS2 teams also started their grind to playoffs the past weekend. Many familiar A1AL names signed up from Oto100, who competed a couple of seasons ago against titans such as BLUEJAYS, Z10, and Blink, to Diamant Esports, Team Secret, and Cupava Veverica.

Cupava Veverica, team who got to the group stage last season, managed to get to the semis without many problems. There, however, they were defeated by Oto100 on Anubis. On the same side, Team Andr1xx lost after double overtime against Bezgresni who then lost to Oto100. GornjiDonji was waiting for them in finals as they cleared their way pretty smoothly but the spot in the group stage was just out of reach. In the end, Oto100 secured that groups spot with a 2:0 win.

Balkan Vikings showed extraordinary performance on the other side of the bracket. They defeated S13 vice champions Superior Esports, as well as Diamant Esports. Unfortunately, this promising team was stopped by Team Secret in the semis. As Team Secret reached the finals it was sure they would go on to win the whole thing. However, they failed on their map pick, and GOT took that opportunity to advance to playoffs.

CS teams will have another chance to compete for a 14,000 euro prize pool on the 22nd of September. Sign up for the second qualifier HERE!

Battle on the virtual field: EAFC vs FC Mobile

The start of the new A1 Adria League season is just days away and we couldn’t be more excited! Once again we will host many games one of which will be EAFC. In A1AL we have tournaments in EAFC24 which can be played on console and PC, and EAFC Mobile which, as you know, is played on your smartphones. If you’re a new player or someone just deciding to enter the esports world through one of these games, but you don’t know how to choose, you’ve come to the right place. Keep reading to find out what makes these two games special and what they have to offer to Balkan players.

Why choose EAFC 24/25?

As for EAFC for consoles/PC, this is what the current maximum of technical possibilities can offer us. Next-gen consoles and PC always accompany the latest mechanics and the best appearance. Unlike EAFC Mobile, a certain amount of money must be allocated for EAFC to enjoy it. However, considering the amount of content that EAFC brings every year, players can reach the ingame team which can satisfy the competition’s needs. 

I spoke with our EAFC administrator KoRaa about this game and how is A1 Adria League helping new players get some experience while competing with the best that our region has to offer.

The best thing of all, A1 Adria League is a platform that for years has been offering a chance to the best players and those who are just starting to compete at an enviable level with a top organization. An interesting fact is that in the 14th season, after the qualifying tournament, we switch to a new version of EAFC 25. This will require players to quickly adapt, assemble a team and master new mechanics in order to gain an advantage in the group stage of the competition. Considering that, players with Ultimate Edition EAFC will have the advantage of five days of early access with which a significant lead can be achieved, both on the field and when assembling the team. And for the one who is the fastest, the competition could certainly pay off.

We already talked about the new EAFC25 game and how the graphics, visuals and the whole interface is astonishing. Besides that, EAFC will have some changes and the players should be careful in the new A1 Adria League season, which is why I asked KoRaa for some advice.

My advice for the players is that they must register for the new season, and practice EAFC25 immediately after securing a place in the TOP 16 at EAFC24.

As you know the first qualifier is scheduled for September 14h, so make sure to sign up! This year the competition is bringing the prize pool of 3,500 euros.

FC Mobile’s rise

EAFC24 Mobile has recently joined our league and hasn’t been around in A1AL as long as its predecessor. However, this game experienced a sudden hype in the last year with the upcoming spectator mode. This allowed FC Mobile to join the competitive side of EA sports. The biggest advantage of this mobile game is that it can be played at any time and any place. You can even compete in tournaments while outside as long as you have a stable internet connection.

I spoke with our EAFC24 Mobile administrator ProSoldier who told me more about the game and its strong Balkan community.

The graphics are at a very enviable level for a mobile game and every week we have new updates regarding events. The Balkan community is perhaps the most active community in the world as far as tournaments are concerned. We were the first in every segment, and always the first to introduce innovations. And we were the first to enter the esports world out of all FC Mobile communities that exist.

A lot of people don’t realize how big the EAFC24 Mobile community in the Balkan is. But our players and content creators are known worldwide. The most famous are StefanTV, Bera FC MOBILE, and Nikolas7, who works closely with EA admins and game developers from EA to improve the game.

Last, but not least, here is some advice for EAFC24 Mobile players from ProSoldier.

Follow the BFL organization as one of the biggest in the region, especially the round reviews on YouTube and practice as much as possible in order to get into a situation to fight for valuable cash prizes and make new friends along the way in different communities, as well as BFL and A1AL.

The first A1AL qualifier is scheduled for September 14th and will be played on the same day as EAFC24 so don’t wait any longer and sign up now! Also don’t forget to follow A1AL social media and our streams!

Season 14 of A1AL is here with the biggest prize pool ever!

If you thought you had to wait a long time for season 14 of A1AL, you were wrong. After just a month, and after crowning the best in the 13th season, we are continuing our journey and inviting you to compete again! The 14th season is bringing a lot of action, more games, and a whopping prize pool.

Compete with the best at the Reboot event in Zagreb!

Just like in the previous season, the A1 Adria League 14th season will feature CS2, EAFC, EAFC Mobile, and Brawl Stars. We will also host competitions in PUBG, LoL, Tekken, and a Student eChallenge tournament. But more on that later. The two biggest differences from the previous season are the enormous prize pool we offer the best competitors and the LAN event which will crown the winner. The best four teams from BS and CS2, and the best four players in EAFC and EAFC Mobile will compete in the grand finale at the Reboot InfoGamer event in Zagreb in November this year!

The competition will be fierce considering that we have thrice as big a prize pool as in the previous season. The best players in our games will share a whopping 26,900 euros! The CS2 competition now has a 14,000 euro prize pool as our biggest and most popular competition in the league.

Season 14 format explained

We won’t be changing much when it comes to format in season 14. CS2 players will have to go through three qualifiers to earn their place in the top eight. However, unlike the previous season, this time only six teams will make it through the cups, while the remaining two will be invited. After that, it’s a double elimination bracket in the SWISS stage. And as I said the best four go to Zagreb for a grand finale and a fierce fight.

EAFC and EAFC24 Mobile games will have the same format. Starting with four qualifiers cups where 16 players will advance to group stage. The group stage consists of four groups of four players. There the winner of each group goes to the finals to compete for a 3,500 prize pool.

Our Brawlers will also be able to enjoy four qualifiers, followed by a SWISS group stage. It will be a double elimination bracket consisting of Bo5 and Bo3 matches. So plenty of action and excitement awaits. That will culminate at the Reboot event where the best four teams will fight for the throne.

As I previously mentioned PUBG is back! The competition is scheduled for October and November starting with two qualifiers. After that, the playoff stage commences, and in the finals, we will watch a fierce fight where the best four teams will share the prize.

The first qualifiers are scheduled for the second week of September, so stay tuned for more information and how to sign up! Don’t forget to follow our social media accounts on Facebook, X, TikTok, and Instagram, and watch our streams on YouTube and Twitch.
