Oto100 upsets Z10 and advances to playoff!

Another exciting day for CS:GO fans. After intense three maps, we have gotten yet another team that secures their spot in the playoff stage in A1 Adria League. Oto100 joins BLUEJAYS and Blink as the third team in the top 4.

Underdog Oto100 surprised

Last night only one match was played, but it was a biggie. The best-of-three duel between Oto100 and Zero Tenacity went into the hands of the former team who now secured the next stage in the league. Both teams had the same score before this duel, 2:1. This match meant the winner will go to join BLUEJAYS and Blink who already secured the playoff. In the end, Oto100 surprised everyone with their extraordinary performance and with a 2:1 score is now safe in the top 4.

Even though the first map, Inferno, went into the hands of Zero Tenacity, they lost the next two. In the first map for Z10 the best player was Katalić who had 25 frags and carried his team. However he lost focus and underperformed in the last two maps, and it lead to his team losing the match.

On the second map Mirage, we have seen a big comeback from Oto100. Z10 started good on this map and had a big lead, but their opponent managed to come back and the game went into overtime. There Oto100 came on top with Xicoz as the best player. The deciding game was played on Nuke and it was a clear win for Oto100. Z10 totally failed on the third map and eventually Oto with the 16:10 score won the series.

Zero Tenacity has one more chance to secure the playoffs, but it will be a hard task seeing their opponent will be 4glory. This matchup is the last of the group stage, and only one team can move forward!

 

Mrky is the first player to secure the playoffs!

After a short delay in our matchups, the third round of FIFA22 is finally finished. We have already seen some players put themselves in a great position before the playoffs. And now we have our first FIFA22 player who will advance to the next round, i.e playoffs. Mrky in the third round managed to defeat brstimir and secure the first spot in the top 4.

Mrky takes down brstimir

The first match of the third round of FIFA22 in A1 Adria League was played between esad1memic and DrPecho. Before this duel, both players had a 1:1 score, and this match was significant for both of them. In the end, Esad came out victorious with a 2:0 win, and secured himself a better position in the league, while DrPecho fell down on the table. However, he still has a fair chance to make it to the playoffs.

The same case was in the second matchup between Jero and JasikFIFA who had 1:1 scores before this game. JasikFIFA is a familiar name in A1AL seeing that he almost won the championship in season 5. The season 5 vice-champion took on the rookie of the league, but Jero was the one who got this win. With a 2:1 score, he is now looking good on the table.

Maybe the most important match of this round was between Mrky and brstimir. They both needed only one win to secure the playoffs. But in the end, it was Mrky who did it. Brstimir showed great performance so far and it’s not gonna be a surprise if he soon joins Mrky in the next stage of the competition. Now Mrky without a single loss will advance to the playoffs where he will wait for his opponents.

In the last match of this round, our three-time champion Novo had a match against Encika. Novo didn’t manage to get a single win in the last two rounds, and this is a very disappointing performance from him. Now with Encika surrendering, he got an automatic win, and now maybe has a chance of moving forwards. Encika with this defeat is the first player we say goodbye to.

The next round will be played in two days, and the competition has never been closer. Stay with us to find out who will join Mrky in the playoff stage.

Blink advances to the playoff stage with the win over XTEAM!

The group stage of CS:GO competition in the A1 Adria League is soon coming to an end. Last night the fourth round began and we have already seen two teams get eliminated, while one advanced to the next stage of the tournament. Blink is the second team to secure their spot in the playoff, while two more teams after ghoulsW left the league.

Blink joins BLUEJAYS in the playoffs

Yesterday we have seen two Bo3 matches. The first was between 4glory and Monad eSport, and they played all three maps. Both of these teams before this duel had the same score of 1:2 so this match decided who will stay in the league. 4glory in the end came on top, won the first and third match on Inferno and Dust2, while aVN had the most frags in the whole series, 58 overall.  Monad had a great run and showed decent performance, their main player in this duel was PTKKK who secured them the win on Vertigo, but it still wasn’t enough. They didn’t stand a chance on the third map and are now leaving the A1AL.

The second match of the day was played between Blink and XTEAM. Seeing as Blink had a 2:1 score, and XTEAM had 1:2, these teams fought for different things. Blink needed the win to advance to the playoffs, while XTEAM hoped to stay in the league. Unfortunately for XTEAM, Blink was the one who in the end came out victorious and advanced to the next stage. They are the second team to do that, right after BLUEJAYS.

Things were looking good for XTEAM at the beginning. They won the first match on Ancient, which was in fact Blink’s pick, and it seemed like it would be an easy 2:0 win for Gejmzilla’s squad since the second map was their pick. However, Blink managed to pull a comeback on Vertigo and make sure the game would go to all three maps. Inferno went into overtime, but in the end, with 19:16 gulito’s Blink defeated the opponent. XTEAM is the third team to be eliminated so far.

On Saturday another exciting Bo3 duel is waiting for you. Don’t miss the action between Oto100 and Zero Tenacity!

CSGO round 4 standings

 

The biggest favorites for winning the PUBG championship are Entropiq and Mfroce!

The last rotating game in the ninth season of the A1 Adria League is PUBG. Last night we have seen 19 teams compete for the highest number of points. Seeing as we had this many teams they all automatically secured their spot in the playoff which will be played next Saturday, or May 28th.

Entropiq and Mforce at the top of the table

Last night we have seen the overall five maps which were played, as well as it will be next week. The biggest favorite before the competition started was of course Entropiq. This team is a well-known PUBG name in the region and in the world. Recently they won the sixth PUBG Continental Series tournament for Europe. And even though in A1 Adria League this team didn’t come with completely the same roster, the core and heart of the team are still there. Entropiq was dominant on the first two maps, which they won.

The third map went into the hands of the team TaTu HuniEs, while the victorious team on the last two maps was Mforce. Up until the last map, Entropiq was in first place on the table with the highest number of points. However, after the fifth map was over they had fallen to second place while Mforce took the lead. Mforce secured the top of the table with 47 kills and 83 points, while Entropiq sits in second place with 43 kills and 68 points. The most valuable player that can be singled out was Entropiq’s CROMAN86 who had an amazing performance throughout all five maps.

Next week we can expect a fierce fight from these teams when the best regional PUBG squad will take home the prize and the prestige title. Some of the other teams who still have a chance for the title and are the favorites are TaTu HuniEs, Sneaky Foxes, and Replay, besides the two mentioned above.

Top 5 PUBG teams after the qualifier:

  1. Mforce (47 kills, 83 points)
  2. Entropiq (43 kills, 68 points)
  3. TaTu HuniEs (39 kills, 56 points)
  4. Sneaky Foxes (25 kills, 47 points)
  5. Replay (26 kills, 45 points)

 

Arkan: I want to win the tenth season of the A1 Adria League!

Recently we have announced the Clash Royale champion in the ninth season of the A1 Adria League. It was Team Snipe that took home the title and the prize defeating everyone in their path. Arkan and Mateja, the victorious duo took the championship without much effort. We talked with Arkan about the league, the championship, and so on.

Firstly, congratulations on winning the championship. What does it feel like to win the title of the best regional Clash Royale team or duo?

Thank you for your congratulations. The feeling is unbelievable and I would also like to thank the A1 Adria League for organizing it in an awesome way.

Clash Royale is back in A1AL, but now unlike in recent years, it’s played only for two weekends. What do you think about this change? 

I am glad that I can be a part of such tournaments like this one, but I would also prefer if they would last a little bit longer.

Who would you say was your toughest opponent and what do you think about this year’s competition?

The toughest opponent for us was team Vazduhoplovci, who also showed their quality during the tournament. This year’s competition was on a solid level, I was positively surprised by the team Elite Skills who I didn’t expect to come that far in the tournament.

This year we implemented a new format where instead of four we host as many as seven games in one season. What do you think about this new format in A1 Adria League?

I’m glad that A1AL wants to broaden its game specter, in which everyone can show their skill. I like the new format because this is something new and different for us since we have only had solo seasons or four-member team tournaments so far.

What are your expectations for the next season and are we going to see Team Snipe defend its title?

I am hoping for a LAN event. But nonetheless, we are going to give our best to make it happen again.

What are your plans after this tournament? 

It’s hard to make any serious plans right now, but I want to win the tenth season of the A1 Adria League.

Second win for Salada de Frutas and Big F

Salada de Frutas and Big F showed their dominance in the second round of the Brawl Stars group stage. The competition is fierce in this year’s A1 Adria League and it remains to be seen who will make their way to the finals. So far, these two teams are in an excellent position.

Salada de Frutas dominant again

The first match of the second round was played between Big F who showed outstanding performance in qualifiers as in the first round, and Jazavci. Big F from the start showed a dominant playstyle on every map and had better picks overall. They secured their second win of the tournament, and now have a 2:0 score which puts them in a great position. The next game will decide whether they will advance to the playoff or not.

The second match was between two underdog teams 33 Esports and Balkan Kids. They both sought their first win in this tournament. It was Balkan Kids who in the end came out victorious. HakiEzz had an amazing performance and he was one of the most valuable players on the team. They now have a solid 1:1 score.

Salada de Frutas once again showed their dominant side in the third match of the day. They took on DOGS who last week won against their opponent, but in this matchup, they weren’t favorites. Salada, as expected easily won their match last night. Fast matches, burst damage, and excellent picks secured them the second win and a good position for the playoff. Even though DOGS played really well, they couldn’t defeat a team such as Salada de Frutas. They are after all the defending champions.

The fourth match was an automatic win for the team You Lose. Seeing as their opponent Skeleton Army didn’t have one of their players Adry, who couldn’t perform because of private issues, and didn’t have a confirmed sub, they got a loss by default. They are now at a 0:2 overall score, and next week they will play for staying in the league.

BLUEJAYS are the first team to secure the playoffs!

The first part of the third round in the CS:GO group stage is finished. We have seen two pairs of teams compete, while one game was the Bo1, the second was the Bo3 decider match. This duel was played between Blink and BLUEJAYS where the latter came out victorious and secured the spot in the playoffs of the A1 Adria League.

BLUEJAYS gave Blink their first loss

Round 3 started with a duel between Oto100 and XTEAM. Before this game, both teams had the same score of 1:1. The match was played on Inferno and it was Oto100 who defeated their opponents. They were clearly the better team which was shown from their gameplay. XTEAM managed to secure a few rounds, but it was only by sheer luck. It was a dominant performance from Oto100 and this defeat puts XTEAM in a bad position. Their captain gejmzilla had an off game and it is one of the reasons the game ended the way it did. He is usually the carry in this team and always comes on top. Yesterday that wasn’t the case and he had only 8 kills, while he died 20 times. XTEAM now has an overall score of 1:2 and in the next round will fight to stay in the league.

The second match that everyone has been waiting for was the Bo3 duel between BLUEJAYS and Blink. Both teams were defeatless before this round with a 2:0 score. The first map was Ancient and suffice it to say BLUEJAYS won it. It was a dominant performance from the Macedonian squad who hadn’t lost a round on this map. While Blink had only 27 kills, BJ achieved 79, almost three times as much. The second map, Vertigo, however, was much closer. We have seen three overtimes overall. It was an intense match, but in the end, it was BLUEJAYS that won it with a 22:20 score. Dan1 had an amazing performance with 37 frags. This win granted BJ the spot in the playoffs, and they are the first team to secure it with a perfect 3:0 score!

Round 3 CSGO group stage standings

The second part of round 3 will be played on Wednesday. Monad eSport will take on ghoulsW in a Bo3 duel, while 4glory and Zero Tenacity will play only one game. For Monad and ghoulsW this is the last chance because in two days we will say goodbye to one of those teams.

 

Team Snipe are your Clash Royale champions!

Another competition in A1 Adria League has come to an end. Clash Royale which made its return this season in the league is over. Last weekend we have seen many teams compete for their place in the playoffs. In the end eight best secured that spot, but the team that came on top of everyone was Team Snipe.

Team Snipe takes home the prize

The teams that showed the best game in the qualifier were Lava Gods, Bomboñera, Vazduhoplovci, and of course our new champions Team Snipe. They had 18 points coming to the playoff and were in a very good spot.

The roster made of Mateja and Arkan showed in the playoff stage that they were the best regional force today. They took down everyone with a 2:0 score starting with CRO-PRO. In round two, they defeated Lava Gods, with the same result. Their opponents in the finals were Vazduhoplovci who came into the finals throughout the lower bracket, as the playoffs were double elimination.

Vazduhoplovci fell into the lower bracket as soon as the first round was finished. They lost to Elite Skills with a 2:1 score. In the lower bracket, much like G2 Esports in LEC, they were dominant. They took down everyone in their path without losing a single game. First to fall were LEGEND and then Lava Gods.

Because Vazduhoplovci came into the final from the lower bracket, they automatically had one loss. But seeing that they won the first game against Team Snipe the finals were restarted so both teams had a loss each, and things were even and equal. In the end, it was Team Snipe that won the remaining game and became the ninth season Clash Royale champion. Our A1AL winners will take home a 700€ prize and the title of being the best squad in the region.

Congratulations on the great performance Team Snipe!

 

Brstimir takes another win; Novo still winless

Last week we have had many exciting matches in this season’s FIFA competition. The first round of FIFA22 in A1 Adria League had an amazing start, as we have seen brstimir took down Novo, the three-time champion. While rookies like Jero debuted in the league. Yesterday the second round of the group stage was played, and it wasn’t any less interesting.

Brstimir, Mrky2402, and esad1memic defeatless

Last night we saw another surprising playday in the FIFA22 competition. Round 2 in the group stage opened esad1memic and Encika, two Bosnian players. Esad already secured his first win last week, and he was looking good before this match. The match itself started patiently. Esad waited until the 70th minute to score his first goal. And he kept the lead until the end. In the second match, Esad opened a bit more brave, and he scored 3 goals quickly, putting himself in a great position before the next round.

In the second match played between Serbian player brstimir and Pecho, who both had a 1:0 lead from the previous week, brstimir still was a slight favorite seeing he took down the three-time champion Novo in the first round. In yesterday’s game, both players took one win for themselves, while the third and deciding one went into the hand of brstimir, who is showing great performance and becoming a huge favorite for winning the whole championship.

The third match of the day was played between our vice-champion from season 5 JasikFIFA and our newcomer Mrky2402. Mrky totally dominated in the first match showing no emotions on our screen whatsoever. And we know it was not because he is shy in front of the camera. It was because he knows what JasikFIFA is capable of and that he might come back into this match. The second match produced a ton of fun for our viewers. JasikFIFA took the lead 2 times, but it was not enough to get away from Mrky’s offensive abilities. It was extra time that decided the winner. Mrky scored in the 114th minute for his second win of the day. This puts him in a very good position for the next week, where he might be our first player in the final 4 if he manages to beat brstimir. Which isn’t going to be an easy task.

The last pair was Novo versus the rookie of the season Jero. Novo came in as a clear favorite, even though he lost in the first round, he has a lot more experience than his opponent. But as Jero didn’t have anything to lose in this game, he gave his all, and in the end, it was worth it. He managed to win against the three-time champion of A1AL, and show that Novo’s form is not as strong as before.
