Noble Elite BLK are going to look for revenge for the organization’s Red squad in their match versus Tora Gold. Both teams are favorites for this season of the League and the matchup will determine which team will be only a win away from the playoffs of this seventh season of the A1 Adria League. The second match will feature two teams from the 0-1 pool – Omerta and 09 Gang. Omerta narrowly lost their match against Mayoi last week and they are eager to win their first match now. 09 Gang on the other hand forfeited their last match and we will watch them for the first time on Thursday.

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:

Joža Esports win Clash Royale; amke2001 is the FIFA21 champion!

/0 Comments/in , , /by

What an amazing time we had during the sixth A1 Adria League season. The sixth Clash Royale season saw Joža Esports secured the first place even though LAZR didn’t lose a single group stage game, and in FIFA, amke2001 was the best player in the double-elimination bracket.

Clash Royale

The group stage produced some intense moments and with that in mind, we came to the finals in which the following matches did not disappoint at all. Joža Esports as an underdog went from the bottom to the top in an extraordinary fashion.

All teams participated in the Gauntlet system, which meant that  Team LAZR already secured a spot and the rest had to fight for the second seat. But, there was a catch – the games were played in BO5 format (1v1, 2v2, KotH, 1v1 and 1v1).

Joža (ex Totem) played the first game against Tribe Academy and the winner of that match was supposed to go against Flayn eSports. Joža Esports was down 1-2 after the first three games and it seemed like they were going to step aside after only one match. But, Joža’s players showed great composure which gave them an edge in the end and they won the match against Tribe.

Joža Esports then went to the semifinal where Flayn eSports was waiting. Flayn was a favorite in this match, but Joža showed us that even a mighty can fall. Surprisingly, it was a much easier match for Joža against Flayn than it was versus Tribe. The team won 3-1 and went to the final.

The undefeated team of the group Team LAZR was waiting for them in the final. Absolute powerhouse with 10 victories and zero losses was ready to face the underdog. LAZR took the lead in the 1v1, but Joža returned the favor in 2v2 set. KotH was a close one with LAZR managing to get on top, but in the next two sets, Joža Esports’ players pulled themselves together and won the match with a final score being 3-2.

So that is it – Joža Esports is the winner of Clash Royale in the sixth season of A1 Adria League. Team LAZR came home second with only one defeat, Flayn eSports was third and Tribe Academy fourth. It was a season worth watching and we can’t wait to see what 2021 has in store for us.

Clash Royale’s teams finished the sixth A1 Adria League season in the following manner:

1. Joža Esports
2. Team LAZR
3. Flayn eSports
4. Tribe Academy

FIFA

FIFA was the last A1 Adria League game to finish – its playoffs were played on Sunday and amke took one final W for this season. The four top players from the nine qualifiers met each other in the final playoffs kup.

esad1memic and Amke2001 player the first semifinal, while brstimir and Ajdin977 met each other later on. Amke and brstimir advanced through to the upper bracket finals where amke was able to best the veteran player.

Ajdin977 failed to win the elimination match between him and Esad and he, unfortunately, finished the A1 Adria League in fourth place. esad1memic managed to complete the comeback and qualify for the finals after winning against brstimir but that didn’t help him in the finals. Amke2001 reigned supreme over the season five winner and is now the A1 Adria League S6 champion.

1. Amke2001 – €1,100
2. esad1memic – €600
3. brstimir – €300
4. Ajdin977 – €150

/0 Comments/in , /by

Three intense A1 Adria League playoffs already came to an end. Last, but not least, we will see the four greatest regional e-football players play the FIFA21 playoffs for the second time this year.

The sixth season of the A1 Adria League was played during a transitional period for FIFA. We had a total of nine qualifiers, with three mini-playoff cups in between. After the first three cups, brstimir breezed past the competition and secured the first spot in the main playoffs event.

In the second trio of qualifiers, eight players once again entered the race for a place in the playoffs. This time, the FIFA21 Adria Prvenstvo S1 champion, amke2001, managed to slip past his opponents and join brstimir.

As the new edition of FIFA was released, we gave a short time for the players to adapt to the new game. The last trio of qualifiers brought two new competitors to the finals. Ajdin and esad1memic were the duo that adapted to the new iteration of FIFA the fastest and they completed the A1 Adria League playoffs list.

brstimir will face Ajdin while amke2001 will take on esad1memic in the semifinal matches tomorrow. The matches start in 14:00, but be there an hour earlier to be a part of the preshow analysis with PvtMole and Baro.

The prize pool will be split in the following manner:

1. €1,100
2. €600
3. €300
4. €150

Ajdin and esad1memic qualify for the A1 Adria League FIFA playoffs!

/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.

We are back on track with the League after a one-week long delay. FIFA had its first FIFA21 qualifier played out, while Brawl Stars closed out qualifier number 11.

Brawl Stars

The eight best teams in the qualifier reached the quarterfinal stage without any difficulties. 09 Gang matched up with Noobs, while FA Deadly faced BadBoys. Noobs managed to win the game against 09 Gang and FA Deadly showed great individual skill versus BadBoys. Ekipa 69 and Code Lyoko had quarterfinal matches against Good Game Gold and Red, respectively. As expected, the GG teams managed to pass this obstacle and reach the semis.

The Good Game derby happened once again in the semifinals of this cup. After a couple of wins by the Red squad, this time, it was Good Game Gold that won the match and advanced to the finals. FA Deadly followed suit and joined the finals, but Sabasniper’s squad couldn’t stand up to Good Game Gold.

The Brawl Stars rankings after the 11th cup are as follows:

FIFA

FIFA was back with the third trio of qualifiers. As FIFA21 came out, the remaining qualifiers will be played on the new version of the game. The seventh qualifier was dominated by Bosnian players with five out of the eight quarterfinalists being Bosnian. Ajdin977 was better than Erminjamak while esad1memic bested Bati.

Arminho and DziDziAnlaki secured the last semifinal spots after victories versus Stojanov_99 and Tana, respectively. In the Bosnian semifinals, esad1memic outplayed his countryman, Ajdin977, and advanced to the finals. DziDziAnlaki lost his match versus Arminho but managed to beat Ajdin in the third-place decider. Arminho was crowned the champion of this week’s FIFA qualifier as he came out on top against the current champion, esad1memic.

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.

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.
