The time to become the next CS:GO champion is now!

/0 Comments/in , /by

As the A1 Adria League is returning so is the oldest game in this tournament – CS:GO. The most popular FPS in the world is back with the ninth A1AL season. CS:GO has been our core game since the beginning of the league, and this year we are giving you another chance to start your CS:GO career and climb to the top.

Begin your CS:GO adventure

For the ninth time A1 Adria League is bringing CS:GO into your houses. The time has come to sign up for the qualifiers and test your luck on Inferno, Mirage, Nuke, and others. The qualifiers begin on April 10th when the battle for the best CS:GO regional team commences.

During the years we have seen many players and teams make a name for themselves while playing in A1 Adria League. You all remember Valiance&CO which was the champion in seasons one and two. The team was made out of one of the now best regional CS:GO players who went on and created such great careers. Hunter- and nexa both started their careers in A1AL and now they are playing for some of the most famous teams in the world, competing at the most prestigious CS:GO tournaments there are.

This year’s prize pool for CS:GO is 5,000€ while the best Adriatic team will be awarded 2,500€.

Unlike Brawl Stars and FIFA22, CS:GO will have three Qualifier cups where the top 2 teams from each qualifier will advance to the next stage making it 6 teams in total. Best teams from qualifications will be joined by the two invited teams. They will battle in SWISS group stage for 4 slots in the finals. In the finals, we will have the opportunity to see the best 4 regional CS:GO teams compete for the title in the single-elimination bracket. The matches are Bo1, apart from the decider matches which are going to be Bo3.

The qualifiers for the ninth season of the A1 Adria League are coming sooner than you think, so don’t waste any time and sign up to compete with the best FIFA players in the region. FIFA22 qualifiers will be held at the beginning of the next month, on April 1st, just a day after the Brawl Stars qualifiers.

Become the best FIFA22 player

This is the sixth time we have had this PlayStation game in our own A1 Adria League. FIFA has always been popular and will continue to be something the majority of male players enjoy playing. This game has even been listed in Guinness World Records as the best-selling sports video game franchise in the world. As of 2021, it had been sold in over 325 million copies, and we are bringing you the opportunity to make a name for yourself in the region as the best at this title.

Over the years we have seen players taking home the winning prize, but one name that stands out is amke 2001, who has been the three-time regional champion of FIFA. Esad1memic also won the title once, as did KT Edinho.

The prize pool of FIFA this year is 1750€ and will be distributed to the first three players. The ninth season champion will receive 950€ as an award for his skill and commitment.

FIFA22 will have four Qualifier cups in total, where we will score 16 top players. The best 8 players from qualifiers will advance to the next round and compete in the SWISS group stage. Four out of eight players will be eliminated in the group stage, and finals will have the best 4 players fighting for the crown. Every qualifier is a single-elimination bracket.

Points will be distributed in the following way:

  • First place – 100 points
  • Second place – 70 points
  • Third and fourth place – 50 points
  • Fifth to eight place – 20 points
  • Ninth to sixteenth place – 10 points

Don’t despair if you don’t do well in the first qualifications, we add the number of points from all four and the players with the highest number of points will advance to the next stage. If you want to become Adriatic Messi, click on the link down below and sign up!

The format for Brawl Stars will remain more or less the same as last year. We have 4 open qualifiers for this game, and it will be played on the FACEIT platform. Each qualifier contains a spot for 128 teams that will be filled with teams and players from eight different countries. The best 16 teams are being scored, while only 8 will advance to the next stage. The SWISS group stage will eliminate half of those teams, and the best 4 will fight in the finals.

Flegma: “A1AL is the stepping stone for talented players”

/0 Comments/in /by

As we are getting closer to the start of the new A1 Adria League we wanted to give you an insight into what it’s going to be like considering all the changes. We interviewed the project manager of A1AL Leonardo Bujas and talked with him a little about the new changes in format and games, what to expect from the upcoming ninth season, and his expectations of it all.

 

The new season brings many changes. What can we expect from the ninth season of the A1 Adria League?

In the ninth season of A1AL, we can expect a fiercer fight for the top than before due to the change of format and prize pool, as well as more games we are bringing this season. Because of that, we expect more interesting matches on the road to the finals.

Besides the standard games such as CS:GO, Brawl Stars, and FIFA, this year A1 Adria League is bringing four extra games? What influenced this change?

Annually A1AL format so far had four games in two seasons that spread throughout a couple of months. So for this season, we prepared something more interesting and more dynamic. Also by adding more games in the league we are giving a chance to less popular games and players of those games to show that their game deserves more attention and more tournaments.

In addition, with the end of the ninth season, you can expect Gaming Weeks in which we will have tournaments for less famous games in the region.

Flegma A1AL

What changes can we expect in Brawl Stars, FIFA, and CS:GO titles, the ones we have already seen in the league?

The biggest change is the duration of the league, instead of the standard three months per season, the league will last for two months now, while the prize pool will remain the same, with only small distribution changes. So basically the winners get more money for less playing time. We also have small changes in the playoff format of some games, such as the number of qualifier cups, the duration of the SWISS group, and so on.

Is the new season going to bring other changes, except in games?

Considering that the ninth season will be held online, we have made some changes in the distribution of our prize pool in all games. Our intention to divide the prize pool into players or teams has always come from the fact that those players that are coming from other countries can at least cover their travel expenses. But seeing that the league is gonna be held online it just made more sense to award the best, so we have increased the prize for first place.

What are the chances that this year in the ninth or tenth season we have a real LAN final? 

The last couple of finals have been held as a part of the Reboot Online Games Week, and the ninth season will also have an Online Final of the league. This final will be in Osijek during the Panonian Challenge. While the production and content crew will be in the studio, the players will, unfortunately, play from their homes.

However, we hope that in the tenth season we will have a LAN final at the Reboot Infogamer fair. We are already planning the event for the final of the tenth season, hoping COVID restrictions will allow it.

People often mistake Esport Adria for A1 Adria League, but those are two different things. What is the role of Esport Adria in A1AL?

Yes, we often get responses from players like “we are going to play Adria” whether it’s about A1AL or some other tournament that we organize. I am really proud that we get huge support, respect, and participation from the community of regional players.

Esport Adria is a “contractor”, it does everything along with A1 Adria League, while A1 Hrvatska is the owner of the tournament. We create content, work on the website, administer tournaments, discover new talents, all in all, we are responsible for everything good or bad that happens in the league.

Leonardo Bujas A1AL

In what way do projects like A1 Adria League affect the improvement and growth of the esports scene in the region?

We constantly follow formats and types of competitions in other world leagues and tournaments, and we implement them in A1 Adria League, so everyone who participates can gain experience firsthand.  A1 Adria League can be the stepping stone for every talented person in the region (players, analysts, casters, designers, news writers, producers…)

We have many examples of this, such as players who used to compete in A1 Adria League that now play for the strongest esports teams in the world. Hunter-, nexa, maden, Sacre, and Limit are just a few of the names who used to prove themselves in A1 Adria League. We also have med1cz who worked as an observer and in the production of tournaments who now works for Ubisoft on their Major tournaments.

What are your expectations for the upcoming season?

I am hoping for plenty of “wow” moments, a lot of good plays throughout the season, and a lot of satisfied players and teams. My wish is also a LAN event because I miss hanging out with the players, and everyone from the organization.

Your journey to the A1 Adria League trophy starts now!

The winner will receive a flattering title of Adriatic CS:GO champion, as well as the 2.500€ prize.

This year’s format for CS:GO didn’t go through many changes. There are three open qualifiers, from which a total of 6 teams go into the next stage. Qualified teams will be joined by the 2 invited teams, the best ones from last season. So the group stage is contained with 8 teams. The best four teams from the SWISS group stage will advance to the open finals, where they will fight for the title. Finals are going to be single elimination brackets, so there is no place for mistakes.

The ninth season has Brawl Stars as one of its standard games now, and we cant wait to see who will rise to become the new champion.

Get ready for the new season of A1 Adria League!

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

The ninth season lies at the doorsteps, and qualifications for our own A1 Adria League are starting soon. Don’t wait any longer and sign up so you can start competing for the title of being the best in the region. The new season of the most prestigious tournament in our region is bringing something new each year. This year is no exception.

We are adding more games this year, alongside the standard ones, Brawl Stars, CS:GO, and FIFA 22. League of Legends and Clash Royale will also be a part of the ninth season of A1 Adria League, only with a slightly different format. And that’s not all. The best regional players will have an opportunity to compete at two new games, which will for now remain a secret.

The ninth season brings seven games

The previous year was a successful one for A1 Adria League. Fans have had the chance to follow the progress of regional players in different games, and enjoy the league. The fact that A1AL had almost 29.000 watched hours last year, and a whopping number of 463.000 views on YouTube shows that regional esports is growing every day.

For this year and two upcoming seasons, we have made a few changes. Instead of four games, as was mentioned earlier, the ninth season will have seven! The format will remain almost the same for Brawl Stars, CS:GO and FIFA 22 while in the other four games players will have a different experience. League of Legends, Clash Royale, and two mystery games will be held on the weekends with open qualifiers and the finals event.

A1 Adria League seven games

Popular CS:GO is yet again back. Last year we have seen PORTUGAL win the trophy, beating teams such as iNation and 4Glory, who are at the moment in great form proving this year’s competition won’t be any easier than last year’s. Don’t miss the chance to fight with the best teams in the region!

Last year’s Brawl Star champions were team Flow alongside Lavvek who proved that in the region this mobile game is growing more and more with each successful season. Familiar names in this game, which we have seen last year are Winx Club, Omert4, Lightning Strike, and many others.

FIFA 21 was one of the most interesting games to follow last year. Three-time back-to-back champion Amke has shown once again he is not letting go of the throne that easily. Despite the great effort of esad1memic and brstimir, Amke remained the king of FIFA. However, as the season is on its way, new opportunities to dethrone Amke are opening up, as well the opportunities for the three-time champion to defend his title.

The only MOBA in our A1 Adria League League of Legends waits for the new champion. Last year the trophy fell into the hands of Metamoon who didn’t have an easy job. They defeated Harmony and 49% winrate in order to lift the trophy. Even though Harmony was a better team in the semifinals, Metamoon got their revenge in the finals when they bested their opponents.

What to expect this season?

Besides the seven games we are implementing this season, A1 Adria League is bringing more to the new season. Once again you will be able to enjoy A1 Gaming Weekends. Six of these events will be held between the ninth and tenth season of A1AL, in order to provide more fun and competitions while the offseason lasts. At the A1 Gaming Weekends regional players will be able to enjoy competing with each other in a more relaxing atmosphere.

And last but not least, June will be the month of yet another gaming festival Reboot Online Games Week powered by A1. During this festival, you will be able to find out who are the winners of the upcoming ninth season.
