This week in A1AL: The break is over; it’s game time!

/0 Comments/in , , , , /by

After we all took a week to relax and enjoy the holidays, it is time to begin the third SWISS round for Brawl Stars, CS:GO and FIFA21. League of Legends, in the meantime, is close to finishing the National Playoffs stage.

Brawl Stars

The beginning of the third round means that we will know the first playoffs participants when the round comes to an end. Currently, Noble Elite BLK and Mayoi are leading the standings, but their 2-0 duel will be played out in the second part of the round. This week, we will only be watching Omerta take on Tora Gold in hopes of reaching the 2-1 pool.

There should have been a second match played as well, but since QSKE Gaming were recently disqualified from the tournament, 09 Gang will get a default win in this round.

 

 

FIFA21

Miloš “brstimir” Majdevac and Tarik “amke2001” Novo will fight for the first spot in this season’s FIFA playoffs. Amke2001 successfully beat esad1memic in the second round despite the match being a nail-bitter until the very end. brstimir had an easier time with FIFAFICO, but this time, amke2001 is ready to put up a great fight against his opponent and make this match exciting until the last minute.

After these guys play it out, Sardinho213 and NKOS_esad1memic are next in line to show their abilities to the regional audience. The Season 5 player is looking to get back on track after suffering a loss to amke2001, and he will face Sardinho213 who is in form after winning versus arminho0307.

 

CS:GO

Midnight, PORTUGAL, Onlinerss, and Fullshock – four teams that will make the return of CS:GO after the pause. Midnight recently got a hard-fought victory against Onlinerss, and next week, they will have another hard challenge on their way to the playoffs – PORTUGAL.

Onlinerss and Fullshock haven’t had the best start of the season, and unfortunately, one of them will be leaving us after the third round concludes. The 0-2 match between these two teams will be played right after the previous’ match winner is declared.

CS:GO SWISS 3-1

League of Legends

League of Legends will continue its National Playoffs stage this Saturday. Reborn Esports and Harmony are currently the two Macedonian teams in the upper bracket. QSKE and Placeholder hold these two spots in the Serbian qualifiers, with two matches ready to be played out in the lower bracket before advancing further in the Playoffs. Last, but certainly not least, Split Raiders and Fantastic Esports will meet in the Croatian upper bracket final. BL Gaming are already in the third lower bracket round, and they are waiting from the winner of the duel between Fiko Izdaja and RainDrop.

This week in A1AL: No matches, enjoy the holidays!

/0 Comments/in , , , , /by

Simple as that! In the previous week, we have received more than a few requests for teams asking to reschedule their matches due to either family holidays, FPL-C qualifiers, competitive tournaments and due to a large volume of proposals, of course – we had to approve them!

So, to cut things short, this week you won’t be able to enjoy the finest regional esports action and all matches will be postponed for next week. Whether you celebrate holidays or play games, use this opportunity to enjoy your time to the fullest and we’ll see you next week!

Stay safe and enjoy the holidays!

 

Sardinho213 and Sulja get their first wins in the second round!

/0 Comments/in , /by

Right after Brawl Stars, FIFA’s second round concluded with two victories by Leon “Sardinho213” Šardi and Emir “Sulja” Suljović.

The Slovenian player recovered after his loss in the first round and managed to squeeze past Armin “arminho0307” Hasanbegović. The first match showed great performance by arminho0307 who scored three goals without receiving a single one himself. The tables turned in the second game. The result was the same, but this time Sardinho was the winner. In the final game which went to overtime and then penalties, Sardinho outplayed Armin and grabbed his first win for this season.

Sulja and Marko “Klaic” Klaić entered the FIFA stadium after the first match came to an end. We saw a fierce game in the first game in which Sulja barely won with a 3-2 difference and headed into Game 2 with a 1-0 advantage. This time, Sulja didn’t let klaic get close to him and scored five goals. Klaic’s one goal in the second game meant that he lost the match and he is now 0-2 in the FIFA standings.

Two FIFA and Brawl Stars and three CS:GO matches remain until the end of the second SWISS round. The teams are slowly gaining the lead in the group stage and are fighting for their spot in the playoffs.

Brawl Stars

As always, the opening game for our A1 Adria League week is Brawl Stars. First up is the duel between Lil Surprise and Mayoi – a match that will decide who joins Noble Elite BLK in the 2-0 pool. Mayoi managed to get here with a win against Omerta, while Lil Surprise beat a weakened 09 Gang in the first round.

When the first duel concludes, Noble Elite Red and QSKE will enter the arena to fight for their first win. As QSKE Gaming forfeited their last match, this will be the first time we are seeing them in this season of the A1 Adria League. Noble Elite Red are still recovering from their defeat versus Tora Gold which sent them to the 0-1 pool. After this match, one of the teams will join 09 Gang in the 0-2 pool, while the other one will hold their spot in the middle of the standings.

Brawl Stars Round 2-2

FIFA

Friday, FIFA day! The only Slovenian player in this season, Leon “Sardinho213” Sardi will face Armin “Arminho0307” Hasanbegović in the first match. Arminho barely lost his match in the previous round and will be looking to fix his mistake versus Sardinho. Sardinho, on the other hand, was demolished by amke2001 6-1 which really isn’t a great start of the season. Though we are still early on and there are plenty of chances for the Slovenian FIFA player to redeem himself, his first being on Friday versus Arminho.

Marko “Klaic” Klaić and Emir “Sulja” Suljović – a clash between the new players. Each of them won one of the qualifying cups despite facing great competition from the whole region, but their start wasn’t the best and they are now looking to get their first victory. Sulja fell to brstimir and klaic wasn’t able to defeat FIFAFICO. After Friday ends, one of them will be playing in the 0-2 pool, while the second one will join FIFAFICO, esad1memic and the Sardinho/Arminho winner with 1-1.

FIFA Round 2-2

CS:GO

ONYX weren’t able to compete on Sunday so the match was rescheduled for the next playday. That means that we will be watching three great CS:GO matches on Sunday, with ONYX opening up the fourth playday at 14 o’clock. Their opponents will be PORTUGAL.

When that match concludes, Midnight will take on Onliners in our second BO3 of the day. Both teams are new to the League and haven’t met each other yet, which means that the match will be even more interesting than usual. To end the day, 4glory will face Good Game – a match between two of the favorites for this season of A1 Adria League.

brstimir and amke2001 are just a step away from the playoffs!

FIFAFICO, brstimir, amke2001, and esad1memic were the quartet of players that competed in FIFA’s second round of the SWISS stage today.

The first match was intense until the very end, a statement proven by the fact that amke scored the winning goal at the last minutes of the third game. The match between these two regional FIFA veterans ended with an 8:7 score. As both of these matches were a part of the winners’ pool, this win put amke just a step away from the FIFA playoffs.

Unlike the first match that was clinched by amke in the very end, brstimir showed FIFAFICO who’s the boss and filled FIFAFICO’s net with goals in two games. The first game of their match saw FIFAFICO show some resistance and score a goal. On the other side, brstimir scored four. Even that one goal was too hard of a challenge for brstimir’s opponent in the second game where FIFAFICO lost 5:0.

The intense action-packed FIFA evening can be rewatched below:

klaic, Sulja fail to upset their opponents in the first round!

After all the excitement from yesterday’s Brawl Stars, today we headed to the virtual stadiums where the FIFA players clashed to close out the first SWISS round of the season.

Klaic started great against his Croatian opponent, FIFAFICO. The new player in the league won his match 4:1, but unfortunately, those were all the goals that he scored today. FIFAFICO came back strong in the second game, scoring six goals to turn the whole game around and win the series 7:4. This put him up in the 1-0 pool together with amke2001, esad1memic, and after the second match, brstimir.

Brstimir and Sulja faced off in the second match of the day with the former taking the win after two intense matches. The two games ended with a one-goal difference, with brstimir being on the winning side in both cases. Firstly, Sulja managed to lose 1:2, and in the second match, the result was tied until the very end when brstimir scored his fourth goal and finished the match 4:3. If you happened to miss any of the action today or simply want to rewatch the great FIFA matches, you can check out the broadcast below:

One step closer to the Group Stage!

The first week of qualifiers is now behind us. Our FIFA players and Brawl Stars teams earned their first points, and in CS:GO, three teams secured their spot in the group stage of the upcoming A1 Adria League season.

Brawl Stars

Two of the four qualifying Brawl Stars cups were played out during the weekend. We were met with a change of pace in the first qualifier. Good Game Gold and Red, the teams that dominated the last season, faced each other in the first round and the Gold players were eliminated. The Red squad didn’t have much better results either, losing to Immortal Balkans, but they managed to snatch 20 points, finishing this qualifier 5-8th.

O9 Gang triumphed in the first cup after beating Mayoi in the finals. Except for these four teams, Wolfs, QSKE Gaming 5M Gaming Elite and Ekipa 69 also won their share of points.

On Sunday, 32 teams entered the Brawling arenas to battle it out and try to qualify for the seventh A1 Adria League season. Good Game Gold and Red did better this time around, but the up-and-comers once again bested them. Lil surprise took the main prize while Wolfs came in second. Good Game Red, Ekipa 69, Crna ruka and Mayoi placed 5-8th and Good Game Gold and O9 Gang finished in the top four.

 

FIFA21

The FIFA qualifiers started off with a massive bang in the second qualifiers. A player from Bosnia and Herzegovina, klaic, bested arminho0307, Sivii7 and finally, esad1memic, to win the second FIFA21 A1 Adria League qualifier. klaic is a player that has played plenty of FIFA in the past, but this is allegedly his first competitive tournament.

The previous cup was won by amke2001. FIFAFICO was unable to defeat him in the finals and only got 70 points. esad1memic ended this qualifier as the third best player, followed by HRVoje-1995. The top 8 was completed by brstimir, xMarjus, Hara and Sardinho213.

 

CS:GO

Around 60 teams signed up for the first CS:GO qualifier. Good Game, INSOMNIA, SKUAK Gaming, Cobalt Esports, Locco Contigo, Onlinerss, MIX and Qske Gaming were the teams that managed to advance do the closed qualifier.

Two great victories against SKUAK Gaming and QSKE placed the Macedonian team Good Game in the League. The second team to follow them were Onliners who had beaten Cobalt Esports and INSOMNIA in the this stage of the qualifying process. In the end, these two sides were joined by Cobalt who outplayed QSKE in the third-place decider.

/0 Comments/in , /by

After nine qualifying cups and three mini playoff tournaments, the FIFA portion of our league reached the final playoffs event. Today, the last mini final came to an end, and the last two qualified players are now known.

arminho0307 as one of the best players in the League finished the SWISS stage of the playoffs cup with a 3–0 score. The reigning champion followed suit and secured a spot in the cup playoffs with only suffering a loss in his match against arminho. HRVoje-95, unfortunately, couldn’t win a single game and ended the mini playoffs in the SWISS stage earlier than expected.

The fifth round saw Ajdin977 and DziDziAnlaki clash for the last spot and Ajdin took the W home. A round before that, Jasik advanced to the playoffs together with Esad, rounding up the list of players.

The semifinals were set to start. Ajdin and arminho played against each other, and in the second semi, Jasik and esad1memic met to decide the second finalist. Two fantastic matches saw the better player qualify for the playoffs – esad1memic and Ajdin will join brstimir and amke2001 in the single-elimination finale of this FIFA21 A1 Adria League season.

After being delayed during the previous week, Brawl Stars was here once again and the seventh qualifier was played out. FIFA finished the second trio of qualifiers, and the second playoffs tournament will start soon.

Brawl Stars

Even after skipping a week, things didn’t change much in Brawl Stars. The Good Game squads once again reached the semifinals and the Red team won the qualifier. Going back to the quarterfinals, Ekipa 69 fell short to Good Game Red, while Zabranjeni lost to the other Good Game team, Gold. Code Lyoko and LovciNaZMajeve, two interesting names that have been playing good during the recent qualifiers faced each other in the quarters. In the end, Code Lyoko bested their opponents and secured one of the four semifinal spots.

Alpha Predators met FA Deadly in the last match of the quarterfinals. The latter managed to slip past the Predators and proceed to the semis. Just like in any other qualifiers, the Good Game teams were destined to meet each other. This time, it happened in the semifinals and the second-placed team, Red, managed to beat the current standings leaders, Good Game Gold.

FIFA

This weekend, we will not be hosting a FIFA qualifier. Instead, the best eight players from the previous qualifiers will once again be a part of the playoffs that will decide which player will advance to the LAN finals. arminho0307 secured the first semifinal spot after he managed to beat mhad10h, while Persunipzs outplayed RUR rob1. HarunNedim1921 and DziDziAnlaki met each other in the quarters, with the Bosnian coming out on top.

The last QF match saw Stojanov1999 and amke2001 clash. Heading into the match, amke was considered the favorite, but Stojanov managed to upset him and proceed to face Harun in the semis. Persunipzs was in great form, but even that wasn’t enough and he couldn’t get past arminho. Stojanov surprisingly advanced to the grand finals, while his opponent, HarunNedim headed into the third-place decider. arminho had a rough start in this trio of qualifiers but won the third edition after all. This week we will see who is the next player to join brstimir in the main FIFA playoffs.

 

The reigning champion triumphs in the second FIFA qualifier!

Unfortunately, Brawl Stars’ qualifier was rescheduled because of an in-game patch that could have caused server instability. We decided that it would be best for the teams to have the qualifier played at another date in order to avoid problems that would hurt the integrity of the matches.

JasikFifa and Vukovarac999 faced each other in the Round of 16 of the second trio of FIFA qualifiers. The former was able to beat the Croatian player and secure a match versus Harun in the quarters. Even though Harun was able to eliminate arminho from the qualifier, he wasn’t good enough in the quarterfinals and Jasik bested him. rob1 and HRVoje-95 were a part of the quarterfinals after wins versus Hardi and mickey_rrrox, respectively. This quarterfinal match ended in favor of rob1 who once again showed how good of a player he is.

The second half of the Ro16 matches saw two Bosnian and two Croatian players advance to the quarterfinals. Mrky2402 and DziDziAnlaki played against one another for a spot in the semis and in the end, DziDziAnlaki outplayed his countryman. The winner of the previous qualifier, amke2001, and the current A1 Adria League champion, esad1memic, played in the last quarterfinals match. esad1memic managed to slip past amke2001 and get a step closer to winning a FIFA qualifier.

DziDziAnlaki and esad1memic met each other in the second semifinal match. esad1memic’s experience reigned supreme in the match and secured one of the two Grand Final spots. JasikFifa and RUR rob1 played a great semifinal, but in the end, rob1 proceeded to the finals. The finals ended in favor of the current League champion, while JasikFifa outplayed DziDziAnlaki in the third-place decider.
