amke2001 advances to the playoffs stage; Blue Whales manage to beat GG Gold

We are more than halfway through with the Brawl Stars qualifiers. FIFA closed out its second playoffs cup, and just like always, both games showed us the quality of the competitive scene in this region.

Brawl Stars

Over 20 teams signed up for the seventh Brawl Stars qualifier. As we are reaching the end of the qualifiers, the leaderboard is starting to form itself and some of the best names in the region are already up there. One of the things that surprised us the most in this qualifier was that finally, someone other than GG Red was able to take down Good Game’s Gold squad. The team that managed to pull this off were Blue Whales, and they did it in the quarterfinals.

Two newer names, Gamer squad and Ready To Win also reached the quarters with the latter advancing to the semifinals of the qualifier. Code Lyoko bested Ekipa 69 on the road to a match against GG Red, who had just won their match versus Taktika baklava. Blue Whales continued with their awesome form in the semifinal match against Ready To Win as well. Good Game Red breezed past Code Lyoko, and in the Grand Finals managed to avenge Good Game Gold against Blue Whales.

FIFA

Eight players once again faced off for a spot in the main playoffs stage of the League. The four players that managed to go past the SWISS stage were Robert “rob1” Persaj, Djordje “JasikFifa” Cumbo, Tarik “amke2001” Novo, and the reigning champion, Esad “esad1memic” Memić. Stevan Mačkić and PvtMole cast the most interesting playoffs matches and we had the chance to watch a couple of incredible FIFA games throughout the weekend.

The four players that advanced through the SWISS stage met each other in a single-elimination cup. amke2001 faced rob1, while esad1memic played against Jasik. esad1memic and rob1 were eliminated from the tournament after losses to Jasik and esad1memic, respectively. An amazing grand final saw amke2001 become the second grand finalist of the sixth A1 Adria League season. FIFA will be back with the last trio of qualifiers this Saturday, and in the meantime, esad1memic and brstimir can prepare for their opponents.

GG Gold keep going strong; amke2001 secures the first 100 FIFA points

With CS:GO and Clash Royale marking the start of their respective group stages recently, we will be covering them in separate articles. The fifth week saw FIFA begin the second trio of qualifiers, while the Good Game teams are continuing their dominant journey through the qualifiers.

Brawl Stars

Troleri once again secured their spot in the Round of 16. Unfortunately for them, they got paired with GG Gold and were consequently, eliminated from the qualifier. Ekipa 69 and LovciNaZmajeve didn’t have much trouble versus On-Fire and LastChance, respectively. Never Surrender didn’t surrender in their match against Alpha Extreme and proceeded to the quarterfinals.

MysteryWarrioRS are among the teams that have always passed the first stages of the qualifiers but never got a chance to be closer to the top. The same happened on Wednesday when the team bested O9 Gang and earned a spot in the quarters. Code Lyoko are even further from catching up to the GG squads after being eliminated early by FA Deadly. Good Game Red took yet another good squad in Blue Whales, while Tehno Diamond couldn’t get past Astronauti.

Good Game Gold and Red were at different sides of the bracket, perfect for yet another Grand Final matchup. The Red squad bested Astronauti, while the Golden boys were far better than LovciNaZmajeve. Ekipa 69 advanced to the semis over Never Surrender and MysterWarrioRS lost their duel versus FA Deadly.

Once again, the semis went the Good Game way. Ekipa 69 and FA Deadly finished the fifth qualifier at 3rd-4th, while Gold once again triumphed and now have a total of 440 points behind their name.

As usual, names like esad1memic, arminho0307 and amke2001 were once again a part of the Round of 16. esad1memic won the Bosnian duel versus Ajdin997 and simke was the better player on the field against Hardi. The Slovenian player Bokip84 was eliminated by Antonio. Mrky once again secured his place between the top eight players, while edenn95 finished his road at the Ro16.

esad1memic continued his winning streak during the quarterfinals. This time, simke was the victim, and the Croat, along with Antonio from the second quarterfinal ended their FIFA road for this qualifier. Stojanov1999 taught arminho0307 a lesson and amke2001 bested Harun without any difficulties.

Heading into the semis, Mrky lost to esad1memic and Stojanov couldn’t get past amke2001. The former won the third-place decider and earned a bigger sum of points, while amke2001 beat the reigning champion in the Grand Finals.

The fourth A1 Adria League week saw the completion of the CS:GO team list for the upcoming season and the first FIFA player secured his spot in the playoffs.

Brawl Stars

Over 40 teams took part in the fourth A1 Adria League Brawl Stars qualifier. It seems that the only way to eliminate one of the Good Game teams before the Grand Final is for the bracket to match them together before. On-Fire and FA Deadly lost their respective games against Good Game Red and Gold. Troleri is a newer name that managed to enter the quarterfinals of the qualifiers. There, they lost to Blue Whales but they still managed to put themselves onto the regional Brawl Stars map. Code Lyoko’s win against Come Back rounded up the quarterfinals and we advanced to the semis.

Once again, the derby between the Gold and Red Good Game squads went in favor of ToDe05 and Good Game Red. Blue Whales managed to beat Code Lyoko and they proceeded to the Grand Finals of the qualifier.

The second group stage round started with a duel between Recast Gaming and Totem Esports. Even though Totem Esports won the 2v2 set, Recast Gaming managed to come back and win the following two sets. Crushers went into the match versus KFC in a dominant manner. Winning the 2v2 set brought them a step closer to a victory, but Team KFC weren’t ready to give up yet.

There weren’t FIFA qualifiers during the weekend. Instead, we hosted the first playoffs tournament for the best eight players from the previous trio of qualifiers. The playoffs cup started with the SWISS stage. amke2001 passed the SWISS stage with a perfect record, while mickey_rrrox couldn’t get a single win before being eliminated.

brstimir kept his great form and secured the first A1 Adria League Finals spot. The Serbian player has had a great form during the previous weeks and he definitely deserved one of the four spots in the LAN finals.

Clash Royale’s Group Stage started in an interesting fashion. Recast Gaming and Crusher Esports played a wonderful match and at the very end, Neki Lik and Recast Gaming were able to win the game. The organization that won the previous season of A1 Adria League is starting with a loss, but it is still very early into the League, especially with the double round-robin format that is featured in Season 6.

Tribe Academy faced the challenger squad, Team KFC, in the first match. The qualified side didn’t put up much of a fight and Tribe’s players closed out the game after 2v2 and KotH. In the last match of the day, the Flayn Esports’ player Enis singlehandedly beat Totem Esports in the KotH mode and secured the first victory for his team.
