If you thought that this year you wouldn’t be participating in the A1 Adria League or watching the best regional players and teams, you are mistaken. Even though we are starting a bit later this year, we are more than ready to show you what we have planned for the 13th and 14th season. Keep reading to find out more!

Seven games, a LAN event, and a whopping prize pool

This year we are proud to inform you that we will be hosting 6 different games in both A1 Adria League seasons. Four games we will stream throughout the whole season while two of them will be a part of mini tournaments. All year long you will be able to enjoy CS2, EAFC23, EAFC24 Mobile, and Brawl Stars. We don’t want to reveal everything from the start, so stay tuned for the remaining two games! All we will say is that first one is from Riot Games, second one is a legendary fighting game, and the third is a very popular battle royale.

The prize pool for both seasons will be more than 40.000 Euros, and we are starting the league with the first qualifiers of the s13 on June 8th. Leaving you time to practice and prepare, since the competition is fierce each year. And while the 13th season will have a finale online, the ending for the 14th season will be a LAN party as a part of the Reboot event sometime in November!

As far as the format goes, for CS2, we will have six qualified teams and two invited to compete for the top prize. The group stage will be double elimination and the top 4 will move on to playoff.

Football lovers will enjoy EAFC24 and EAFC24 Mobile throughout four qualifiers, group stage, and finals. The group stage will contain four groups of four players. The remaining eight players will advance to the second stage of groups where there will be two groups with four players. From there we will get the best four who will compete in the playoffs.

Last but not least, Brawl Stars will have four qualifiers as well while the group stage is double elimination where the best 16 teams will compete in BO5/BO3 series.

The last qualifier’s week is behind us. We had the opportunity to enjoy exhilarating matches in the fourth and last FIFA Mobile qualifiers. As CS: GO, now CS2, and FIFA23, now EA Sports FC 24, finished this part of the tournament, the previous week only one qualifier was played. Now we have the top eight players in all three main games and the group stage can commence.

Bosnian players dominated the FIFA Mobile qualifiers

After four exciting qualifiers in FIFA Mobile, we finally have our best eight players who will advance to the SWISS group stage and compete for the top prize. Besides already-known players who qualified, based on their success, we also had one upset in the fourth qualifier. Namely, the winner of the Gaming Weekend, Andrija 06, was defeated by a new player Mbalug, and is now out of the race for the top eight and the league. He will have to try again next season.

Two players made it to the semi-finals in the fourth qualifier and therefore secured the two group stage places. It was Lazar and Destroyer who bested a competition of 114 players and are safe in groups. Destroyer, Kayozz, and Nerko are representing Bosnia in the 12th A1 Adria League season, while two Maceodian players, Ivand and Tocc also made it. Besides them, Suh12 and Shaq are also one of the best eight players this season. Watch them compete in EA Sports FC Mobile this Friday on our YouTube or Twitch channel!

SWISS Group Stage Round 1 Matchups in EA Sports FC Mobile:

MATCH 1: Tomislav “suh12” Peula VS Lazar “Lazar” Maras

MATCH 2: Amar “Kayozz” Hadziabdic VS Benjamin “Destroyer” Saldum

MATCH 3: Ivan “Shaq” Novakovic VS Hristijan “Tocc” Tocev

MATCH 4: Ivan “Ivand” Donevski VS Nermin “Nerko” Zdralovic

Besides FIFA Mobile switching to EA Sports FC Mobile, the other main games in our tournament are making the change as well. Qualified FIFA23 players will compete in EA Sports FC 24 in the group stage, while CS: GO is now Counter-Strike 2.

aVN: I think we have the advantage because we are a team

On Sunday, June 11th, Filip “aVN” Belojica will have the opportunity to defend his title as the reigning champion of the 10th season of the A1 Adria League in the grand final of the 11th season, facing off against the formidable team of Jake Bube. These two teams share a deep-rooted rivalry and extensive familiarity.

aVN has an impressive track record, being a four-time winner of the A1 Adria League. He claimed victory in Season 4 with ex-BLUEJAYS, followed by consecutive wins in Season 5 and 6 with Level Up Esports. His most recent triumph came in Season 10 with Zero Tenacity, where he secured the championship. Additionally, aVN has achieved success twice at the Esport Adria Championship, emerging victorious in the 5th and 6th editions.

In this exclusive interview, we delve into aVN’s journey, his experiences, and his insights as he prepares for yet another fierce battle on the A1 Adria League stage.

Z10 Filip aVN Belojica

You’re in the A1 Adria League final once again. Congratulations! How was the journey to the final compared to last season?

Thank you! Unlike last season, where we barely made it through the group stage, this time it was much easier. The only tough match we had in the group stage was against Portugal.

You have won the A1 Adria League four times and are one of the most successful players in the tournament. How do you feel about that, and does it motivate you even more for the fifth trophy?

The feeling is always the same, aiming to win any tournament, especially if it’s a LAN event. The motivation is always there, and I hope to win the fifth trophy as well.

You are facing the team Jaka Buba, composed of players you know well. You have already won the A1 Adria League with some of them, but they also know you well. Who do you think has the advantage because of that, and why?

They are all good players, and we are all good friends. We have played together before, and we know each other very well. But I think we have the advantage because we are a team and therefore have a better map pool, while they come as a mix.

How do you like playing tournaments in Zagreb, especially the A1 Adria League?

As someone who has played many tournaments in Zagreb, I’m really glad to play there again in front of an audience. Of course, I’m particularly happy to play in the A1 Adria League because I have many great memories from your tournaments.

Lastly, the CS:GO era is coming to an end, and it’s likely that we will all be playing CS2 soon. What does that personally mean to you, and what does it mean for Z10?

Honestly, we haven’t tried CS2 yet because we are still playing a lot of tournaments. As far as I’m concerned, every change is welcome. We will continue in the same lineup and hope to achieve even better results in CS2.

Watch aVN and Z10 on Sunday as he tries to win his fifth A1AL trophy against Jake Bube in the grand finals of the Season 11!
