/0 Comments/in , , , , /by

There is almost no time left to secure a spot in the playoffs, earn a ticket to the Reboot InfoGamer event, and attend the LAN and the finish of the 12th A1 Adria League season in Zagreb this month. Read on to learn who secured their spot and who has one last chance to do so.

Suh12 secured the semifinals in EA FC Mobile

Suh12, a guy from Croatia, showed a unique desire to prove himself in front of his audience in Zagreb, and that’s how he played a decisive match with Kayozz. He won the duel against the Bosnian player with 2:0.

The favorite of the match, Ivand, had the opportunity to beat Lazar, knock him out of the competition, and secure a place in the semi-finals, but the opposite happened, it was 2:1 in the end in favor of Lazar. Now both are at 2:2 in overall aggregate. 

Nerko returns from 0:2 to 2:2 after another masterful game. He won against Tocc with a 2:0 victory, and it is the biggest comeback of this Swiss stage so far.

Marac and Fico join Novo in the top 4 in EA FC 24

In this round of the EA FC 24 Swiss Stage three members of the CLA organization successfully defeated their opponents and two of them even secured a spot in the playoffs.

The first match of the day was played between CLA TH3Prod1gy or Skrga and a rookie OlleDobrinho from Serbia. It was a direct fight for survival in the competition and at the same time for a step closer to the TOP 4. We have only been watching Skrga on the streams since last season, but a little more experience was enough compared to Dobrinjo. This is his debut season, but he showed that he was not in the top 8 by chance.

Second duel was played between a veteran of the A1AL brstimir and CLA Fico. This was a duel between players who have a score of 1-2 and 2-1, which meant that if Fico wins, he will ensure his place in the top 4, while we say goodbye to Brstimir for this season. That’s exactly what happened. This big derby went as expected in the third match, but Fico still found a way to be more patient and win the game in his favor.

The third and last match of this EA FC 24 Swiss Stage saw CLA Marac win against another rookie Nemanja. Marac, like Skrga, has been performing on the biggest stage in the region since last season, but he is in such form that he was considered a favorite for the top 4 from the very beginning of the season. With a duel against Nemanja, he ensured his place in the TOP 4. And Nemanja will seek his place in the LAN final next week in a direct duel against Skrga. Which will be the last match of the group stage in this game. 

The Suspect and Zero Tenacity are going to LAN

The semifinals in the CS2 competition of the A1 Adria League was played last Sunday and we have two teams that will attend the LAN in Zagreb and fight for the top prize. As you know Z10 is the defending champion and therefore a big favorite, but we know The Suspect will put up a hell of a fight. Let’s see how the games of the current finalists went last weekend.

The first match was played between Partizan Esports and The Suspect. An excellent start for The Suspect on their map pick which was Anubis, but Partizan is fighting well and harming The Suspect’s economy. Caley showed a fantastic performance yet again as half-time ended with a 7:5 for Partizan. They go on to take the pistol round and the initiative in the second half. An excellent team game that even Caley could not stop, resulting in victory on the first map with 13:7. The Suspect took only 2 rounds on the T side.

On Ancient, which Partizan picked, things were even up until the second half. The first one ended with a 6:6 score. Strong performance for The Suspect in the second half. Partizan took only one round on the CT side and the game ended 13:7 in favor of The Suspect. This evened the overall score and we saw the decider map play out. On Vertigo it was a complete domination for The Suspect, and the game ended with a 13:3 score.

Jake Bube makes Z10 work for it

The second match of the day between Zero Tenacity and Jake Bube started on Mirage. Both teams showed extraordinary performance. Jake Bube took the first half on the wings of Jayzar with a 7:5 score. After that, the game didn’t get any easier. In the end, however Z10 prevailed and won with a 13:11 score.

On Vertigo Jake Bube demolished their opponents in the first half with a result 8:3. The defending champions woke up in the second half and let their opponent take only one round on T side. The second map ended in favor of Z10 with a 13:9 score and an amazing comeback.

Another week is over, and our competitors in CS2, EA FC 24, and EA FC Mobile are getting closer to securing the top 4 and a place at the LAN event in Zagreb. Find out who already managed to secure these spots and who is still fighting for it in all three main games in the 12th A1 Adria League season.

Shaq is the first EA FC Mobile semifinalist

The results are in, and EA FC Mobile players have played some decider matches this week. From them, one player has secured and advanced to the next stage of the competition, while one other has been eliminated. The successful player was Shaq who won against Ivand with a 2:1 victory. On the other hand, we had to say goodbye to Destroyer who didn’t manage to win a single game in this group stage. It was Nerko who eliminated Destroyer with another 2:1 win. The third game that day ended with the same score between suh12 and Lazar where the former came out victorious.

Stay tuned for more exciting matches and more EA FC Mobile news!

Novo earns a ticket to the finals in Zagreb!

The first ones this week were Nemanja LS92 and Brstimir. It was a very interesting match and the only one that went to the third game on the playday of EA FC 24. Both players enter the match with a score of 1-1. Nemanja won the first match when he scored the winning goal in the end. In the second game, Brstimir returned and leveled the total score at 1-1. In the third game, Nemanja won 3:0 more easily than expected. Brsimir now has a negative score of 1-2 while Nemanja has a 2-1 record.

The second match of the day featured Fica’s routine 2-0 win on aggregate over his colleague from the CLA organization TH3Prod1gy. Also, both players entered this match with a 1-1 ratio. Fico performed better and gave himself an advantage and now one win separates him from the LAN finish.

The most exciting match of the third EA FC 24 group stage round was played by two guys who entered the match with a ratio of 2-0, Novo and Marac. Easier than expected, Novo achieves his third victory and confirms the ticket to Zagreb in November.

Partizan secures playoff in CS2!

The first match of the fourth CS2 group stage round was played between Partizan Esports and RUR Esports. Partizan won the duel with 2:0 on Ancient and Overpass. The first map started in favor of Partizan and they had a two-round advantage at halftime (7:5). RUR managed to draw the score on 7:7 but after that, they missed too many chances and allowed their opponents few crucial clutches. This led to a victory in favor of Partizan with a score of 13:8. Similar scenario on Overpass. Partizan dominated the first half with 8:4 after which RUR took four rounds and evened out the score. However, that was all they managed to achieve, as Partizan didn’t let them win a single round after that and ended the game with the same score (13:8) and secured their spot in the playoffs.

Salamander is eliminated from the group stage

The second game of the week in CS2’s fourth round was played between Megnatos and Salamander. It was more than a dominant win for Megnatos on both maps which means we have to say goodbye to Salamander as they are eliminated. Ancient began with 9:3 on half for Megnatos and ended with four more rounds in favor of them (13:3). On Vertigo the half ended with the same score. It was Tiirex who carried his team to such a dominant victory as he had 18 frags in 10 rounds during the first half. The second half was more or less the same as in the first game. Megnatos once more ends the game with a 13:3 score.

The Suspect puts on a show

Jake Bube vs The Suspect was the most exciting match of this SWISS round where we saw all three maps. Mirage was a mess, to say the least. Even though The Suspect had an amazing first half which ended with a 10:2 score, Jake Bube came back in the match and almost won, making their opponents sweat. A lot of rounds with deagles brought us an exciting finish, where in the end Suspect got the first win with a 13:9 score. Moreover, Ancient was nothing less exciting. It was a very close match and an even score at half-time. The Suspect got the lead in the second half. However, at 10:7 Bube finally woke up and returned fire ending the game in their favor (13:10).

Inferno was a decider. The Suspect shows a great start once again winning five rounds in a row. However, Bube wouldn’t be defeated so easily as the half ended with a 7:5 score. The Suspect kept their lead for a while. At 10:5 Bube attempted another miraculous return, however, Kindo, the hero of their team, couldn’t carry the weight. In the end, it was a 13:10 victory for The Suspect.

We are getting closer to finals in the 12th A1 Adria League season. The group stage phase has already kicked off and some teams already secured their spot in the finals, while others are just one step away. Read on to learn what happened in the SWISS group stage round 2 in EA FC 24 and EA FC Mobile, and who was successful in the third group stage round in CS2!

Shaq and Ivand dominant in EA FC Mobile

The second group stage round in the A1 Adria League in EA FC Mobile brought two players closer to securing a spot in the next stage of the competition. Shaq and Ivand have two wins and need only one more to be in the top 4. On the other hand, Destroyer lost another game and is now one step away from elimination. He needs to improve his performance or take his chances in a different EA FC Mobile season.

The same goes for Nerko, who played in the first match of the day against Lazar. Lazar won 3:0 and left Nerko in the danger zone. In the second match, two league favorites Shaq and Kayozz battled it out in a derby match, where the former came out victorious.

EA FC 24 is as intense as ever!

In the first match of the second group stage round, we saw many emotions on the stream between Esad1memic and CLA TH3Prod1gy. It was the latter who managed to score more goals and avoid being 0:2 which can’t be said for Esad. However, this isn’t the first time for the A1AL veteran to be in this position and manage to still secure the top 4.

The second match between two rookies of the league played by OlleDobrinho and NemanjaLS92 finished in the favor of Nemanja who won 2:0. This left Olle in a bad position whereas if he loses another match he is out of the league.

CLA Marac in the third match wins against his countryman and mate from the organization CLA Cyber Fico and is now one step closer to securing the next stage. He now has the overall score of 2:0 while Fico is in solid state with one win and one loss.

In the end, the best! Two familiar names and two rivals Novo and Brstimir went head to head in the biggest match of the week. In the region derby emotions couldn’t be surpressed. Novo opened with a win after which Brstimir retaliated making Novo ragequit. However, he came back and celebrated in the end with a big win. One more and he is in the TOP 4. On the other hand, Brstimir has an overall score of 1:1 and a good chance to advance further.

Z10 is in the top 4; Bonanza eliminated in CS2

Unlike EA FC, CS2 is already playing the third group stage round which brought one elimination and one promotion. Namely, Zero Tenacity, the current champion defender, secured the next stage with 3:0. On the other hand, Bonanza didn’t manage to secure a single win and is out of the competition.

The first match of this round was played between Jake Bube and RUR Esports. It was a close match where RUR had a small early lead. However, at halftime, it was 8:4 for Jake Bube. It was smooth sailing for Jake Bube until 12:7 when RUR attempted to come back into the game and almost managed to reverse the game. However, the score was 12:10 when team Jake Bube secured a win with one more victorious round.

The second match between The Suspects and Megnatos finished fast as one player from Megnatos failed to connect and they had to surrender unfortunately.

The third one was another close match between Salamander and Bonanza on Anubis, Ancient, and Inferno, where Salamander came out victorious with a 2:1 score overall and eliminated Bonanza. Anubis was close until halftime where Bonanza performed better even though their opponents picked the map. After that 13:8 victory things began to go south for Bonanza. Things on Ancient really had an explosive ending. The situation was equal for the most part of the game. Half time was 6:6, after which Salamander won 6 rounds in a row. Then Bonanza woke up and almost evened out the score, it was 12:11. In a 2v2 situation on B Site, Miwo (Salamander) outplays the opponent and wins one for his team. Moreover, the third match was pure domination for Salamander as Bonanza only won 2 rounds in the whole game.

In the fourth and last match, two giants clashed. Zero Tenacity and Partizan Esports played two games on Anubis and Overpass, where both maps went into the hands of the defending champions. On Anubis Z10 was dominant. The half ended in their favor 8:4, as well as the game where Z10 stomped the opponent with a 13:6 score, letting them only two rounds. The second game was even more one-sided with Brutmonster on AWP ending the half with a 9:3 score. Only two rounds were given to Partizan after that and Overpass ended with a 13:5 score.

The league has officially started. In the 12th A1 Adria League season, the SWISS group stage saw its first winners in three main games. Who celebrated in EA FC 24, EA FC Mobile, and CS2 will be revealed further in the article, so keep reading! Furthermore, a Clash Royale mini-tournament got its champion the previous week, where Dominik bested the competition of nearly 80 players.

Favorites prevailed in EA FC Mobile

The first round of the group stage in EA FC Mobile finished without any upsets or surprises. In the first match, Suh12 defeated Lazar from Montenegro and justified the role of favorite. The same happened in the second duel of that day, where Kayozz snatched a victory from Destroyer after three matches. Even though he had internet problems, the Bosnian contest went into the hands of a favored Kayozz.

The third match was one of the most watched and most exciting ones as Shaq and Tocc battled it out for the first win in the group stage. They played for the umpteenth time, it was a replay of the finals of the Southeast Conference of the BFL, and the victory was taken by the BFL champion, the Serbian player Shaq. And in the derby between clan comrades, from the United League, Nerko and Ivand played 4 matches, after which Ivand from Macedonia emerged as the winner.

Great start for Novo and Brstimir

The first round of the group stage in EA FC 24 also didn’t have any upsets. Three out of four scheduled matches were played as one player withdrew from the league. Namely, Haris decided not to participate anymore and his place was taken by NemanjaLS92 a day ago. His match against Cyber Fico will be played subsequently.

In the first match of the group stage, Brstimir took on Croatian player CLA TH3Prod1gy and that was an easy win for our veteran. He took down his opponent with a swift 2:0 victory. The same happened in Novo’s matchup where, with the same result, the Bosnian defeated fellow countryman Esad1memic.

In another match, CLA Marac justified the role of favorite and defeated newly joined player OlleDobrinho.

Z10 is continuing the dominant performance in CS2

The defenders of the title in CS2, Zero Tenacity, opened the group stage with a dominant win. They are the biggest favorites for winning the championship again and they are showing it. Even though they were losing at halftime with 5:7 for team The Suspects, they snatched a 13:10 victory in the end. Nemanha was the best player of the game with 23 frags and a 1.53 K/D ratio.

RUR Esports won their match against Salamander on Ancient with a 7:5 score at half and finished with 13:7 letting the opponent get only two rounds in the second half. The determining round happened at 11:7 where RUR didn’t have a good buy but managed to outsmart Salamander and take the win.

Jake Bube vs Partizan Esports was the third match of the day, where Partizan defeated one of the invited teams by 13:8. The best player of the match was Kind0 with 24 kills.

Last but not least, Megnatos was successful against their opponent, team Bonanza with a 13:10 score on Mirage. Mwlky was the one who brought his team to victory with an astonishing 32 frags.

Next week we will find out who will be the first team to advance to the finals and who will be the first eliminated. Partizan and Z10 have a chance to secure a spot in the finals, while we say goodbye to either Bonanza or Salamander. Stay tuned!

Dominik is the Clash Royale champion!

The first stage of the Clash Royale competition was an in-game tournament lasting 60 minutes. The most famous names from the Clash Royale scene from the region took part in the tournament. Unfortunately, greats like Hezzy, Arkan, and Novak did not qualify for the next stage of the competition (Double Elimination). It is worth noting that Arkan and Novak are the winners of previous A1AL seasons.

In the bracket phase of the competition, we followed the dominance of Dominik and Enis in the upper bracket until the final itself. In the lower bracket, Marsel Smocker showed himself in the best light, winning the final of the lower bracket, where he played against Enis to meet the finalist from the upper bracket (Dominik). However, Enis once again showed why he is one of the best players from the region and successfully defeated Marcel Smocker. In the final itself, we had a repeated meeting between Dominik and Enis. The fight was tight, but Dominik the match and the prize pool worth 150 EUR.
