The last qualifier of this FIFA season is over. Haris “edenn95” Lukomirak took the main prize and the player list for this SWISS stage is completed.

A smaller number of players signed up for the last qualifier as the top eight players had more-or-less secured their spots in the league. Mostly players who were on the verge of losing their spot played the qualifier, as well as players who needed a small number of points to reach the upper spots in the leaderboard. Robert “rob1” Peršaj lost in the first round. His opponent was Tarik “amke2001” Novo, who went on to win against Esad “esad1memic” Memić in the quarterfinals. Tarik was unstoppable in his part of the bracket and outplayed Emir “Sulja” Suljović in the semis with ease.

Leon “Sardinho213” Šardi was better than Batiii and Petar “DrPecho” Šušnjar in the first rounds of today’s bracket. His opponent in the semifinals was edenn95 who surprisedly managed to upset Miloš “brstimir” Majdevac in the first round. The player also defeated Luka “Lux” Rade, and finally bested Sardinho in the semifinals. The Slovenian participant become one of the players in the third-place decider, while edenn95 advanced to the grand finals.

The third place this week went to Sulja, which means that Sardinho213 finished fourth. A huge upset happened in the finals where edenn95 managed to surprise amke2001 and win the game in the very last minute of the second game. These are the eight players that qualified for this season’s group stage:

As today’s qualifier was the second-to-last one of this FIFA season, we already know some of the players that will participate and compete in the upcoming SWISS stage.

Last week’s runner-up, Esad “esad1memic” Memić faced tough players such as mrky2402 and Leon “Sardinho213” Šardi in his first two rounds. He managed to beat mrky, but couldn’t squeeze past Sardinho. Tarik “amke2001” Novo, one of our finalists, was a part of this half of the bracket as well. One of the players he faced on his road to the quarterfinals was Robert Peršaj, a player that hasn’t been active recently but played in previous seasons of the League. Amke managed to overcome Robert, breeze past Sardinho, and finally, defeat Harun “Hara” Parla in the semifinals of this cup.

Simultaneously as amke2001, Miloš “brstimir” Majdevac was fighting for his spot in the finals as well. Ranked fourth before the beginning of this qualifier, brstimir advanced to the later stages of the tournament over Petar_Puljic and Jelusic90. He met Hrvoje “HRVoje-1995” Čleković in the quarters before challenging Emir “Sulja” Suljović a round later. The Bosnian player gave it his best, but brstimir came out as the winner of this match.

FIFA Q4 Semifinals

The third-place decider ended earlier today and Hara managed to achieve a 2-0 victory over Sulja. The main prize of this qualifier went to amke2001, while brstimir earned 70 points, summing it up to a total of 180. Next week, the final qualifier will be played out and we will know who the eight qualified players are. It is your last chance to secure a spot among the very best FIFA players in the region.

This week in A1AL: More cups, more points, more games!

/0 Comments/in , , , /by

CS:GO’s first SWISS round is coming to an end, and in the meantime, FIFA and Brawl Stars will crown their fourth qualifier’s winners this week.

Brawl Stars

We have a slight map change for this week of Brawl Stars. Instead of Brawl Ball, our regional squads will be playing Bounty. Last week, Salada de Frutas claimed first place after their second consecutive win for this season. Winx Club are currently second with 150 points, and Omert4 are trailing behind by only 10 points. It has been a whole month since the qualifiers started, and we are slowly starting to round up the teams that will participate in this season’s SWISS stage. This week, one Brawl Stars player talked about the current season and his expectations for the League. This is what Protić from Omert4 had to say:

“Hello, I am protić from team Omerta. I am playing together with Bogdan and Brankec. We are currently third which has been good enough so far, but we are sure that we could have done better because we lost important matches to small mistakes. We could maybe have been first or second, but we are satisfied with our placement seeing as the competition is much tougher in this season and a lot of good new teams appeared. Of course, our biggest rivals for the season are Salada de Frutas and Winx Club, and I would also add Lightning Strike here. They started playing together this season and they are already looking great. They are currently placed fourth and they are really close to the other teams.

As far as my expectations are concerned, if we continue with this form, I believe that we will reach the very final stages of the tournament – at least top 4. After that, nothing is certain, as all teams there will be very good and there will be a number of intense matches that could easily end both ways. With enough practice and preparations, I am sure that we could reach the finals and maybe even win the whole league. I just want to say that I am eagerly awaiting the next qualifiers and I wish good luck to all the other teams!”

FIFA

There are only two FIFA qualifiers remaining. After the qualifying phase comes to an end, the best eight players will play a SWISS group stage, but in the new edition of the franchise, FIFA22. Our reigning champion, Tarik “amke2001” Novo continued with his great performance in the third qualifier where he defeated Esad “esad1memic” Memić in the grand finals. The latter played is currently ranked second, together with Đorđe “JasikFIFA” Cumbo (both players have 130 points). Miloš “brstimir” Majdevac and Harun “Hara” Parla are close to the aforementioned players and they are looking to close the difference in the upcoming qualifier.

CS:GO

iNation, SKUAK, 4glory, and Young Glorians. Those are the names of the four teams that played the very first CS:GO playday for this eighth season of Counter-Strike. The iNation squad led by Ivan “choiv7” Živković faced Bledar “BledarD” Dula & SKUAK in a fierce BO3 which saw the former came out as winners after two maps. The same thing happened in 4glory’s match, but with much more difficulties. Namely, Young Glorians nearly upset 4glory on two occasions, taking the game to overtime both times. In the end, 4glory’s experience reigned supreme and they closed out the match in their favor. This week, the first SWISS round continues. PORTUGAL is going to challenge Marten Gaming, while BLUEJAYS will play versus JESTE.

amke2001 outplays his Bosnian rival esad1memic in the finals!

With this third FIFA qualifier coming to an end, only two more separate us from the beginning of this season’s SWISS stage.

Esad “esad1memic” Memić began the long road towards the grand finals in the Round of 16 where he bested freezing gambler. His next opponent, Leon “Sardinho213” Šardi was in great shape after defeating Aleksandar “Zli Duh” Blaževski, but esad1memic had no trouble in defeating the Slovenian player. Next up, Esad faced a new name with the nickname lala13_13. lala13_13 won matches versus Stefan “StojanovFIFA” Stojanov and Luka Bukal before the semifinals and he had good chances against the Bosnian veteran. However, Esad didn’t let his opponent upset him and easily secured his spot in the finals.

Tarik “amke2001” Novo, our back-to-back FIFA champion, was the most successful player in the upper half of today’s bracket. His FIFA squad defeated various opponents throughout the bracket, including Hrvoje “HRVoje-1995” Čleković and Emir “Sulja” Suljović. His semifinal opponent was Harun “Hara” Parla, who had the same amount of points as amke2001 before the conclusion of this qualifier. Aydin_kmetas, Vukovarac999 and TopBoyFifa were eliminated by Hara today, but his streak came to an end after suffering a 0-2 defeat to amke.

Despite being one of the best players in the region, amke2001 and esad1memic didn’t manage to earn the main prize in our previous two qualifiers. This time, one of them finally had the chance to finish on top, and amke2001 made sure to do everything in his power to become that player. The third place this week went to lala13_13, while Hara finished in fourth.

Jasik earns 100 points after defeating Pecho in this FIFA qualifier!

/0 Comments/in , /by

After Salada de Frudas dominated Brawl Stars on Thursday, today we got our second FIFA winner of the season – Đorđe “JasikFIFA” Cumbo.

FIFA was off to a great start since the very first round. Namely, Stjepan “Brstylo” Brstilo eliminated our reigning back-to-back champion, Tarik “amke2001” Novo, in Round 1, denying him from winning any points in this qualifier. Just a round later, another veteran fell. This time, Miloš “brstimir” Majdevac, the player who triumphed in the first qualifier, was too weak to stand up to Emir “Sulja” Suljović. Stefan “StojanovFIFA” Stojanov had to face a couple of tough opponents before reaching the finals. He bested HRVoje-1995 in Round 1, Zli Duh in Round 2, and Jelusic90 in the quarterfinals before losing to Petar “DrPecho” Šušnjar in the semifinals.

Sulja had a similar road to the third-place decider. He managed to outplay brstimir and Esad “esad1memic” Memić before ultimately losing to JasikFIFA in the semis. The latter, a name that we haven’t heard in a long time secured his final spot against DrPecho after a great performance in our second qualifier of the season. StojanovFIFA was better than Sulja in the third-place decider, while a 2-1 victory secured JasikFIFA 100 points over DrPecho.

You can check out the current FIFA standings below. The third qualifier will be played out next Saturday – hurry up and SIGN UP!

FIFA Q2

brstimir takes the lead after the first FIFA qualifier!

/0 Comments/in , /by

In our first qualifier for this transitional FIFA season, we watched Miloš “brstimir” Majdevac outplay Tarik “amke2001” Novo and win the main prize.

Our regional FIFA players will get five chances to showcase their skills and earn points before the SWISS stage of the season. Today was the first one, and while brstimir finished first, he was not the only one to earn points. All players played incredibly which is a sign that a great season of FIFA is ahead of us. In the end, eight best players advanced through to the quarterfinals. Last season’s winner, amke2001, beat Nikola “paolimoc” Dobrković in his quarterfinal match, while Harun “Hara” Parla passed through to the semis over Stefan “HardiFifa” Stojanov. In the second pair of quarterfinal matches, the Serbian FIFA veteran, brstimir faced and bested Luka Bukal. The last semifinal spot went to Esad “esad1memic” Memić who was better than Mirza Hasančić in their duel.

brstimir protiv amke200

As always, the matches between brstimir and esad1memic are tough for both players as they are both brilliant FIFA players. This time, the winner was brstimir and he advanced to the finals together with amke2001. amke2001 won over Hara who was set to face esad1memic in the third-place decider, but the latter decided to forfeit the match and end his first qualifier on the fourth place. In the grand finals, brstimir achieved a 2-0 victory against his bitter rival and earned the main 100 points.

GOOD IS NOT ENOUGH; beat the best in the 8th season of A1 Adria League!

/in , , , , , /by

The summer break is slowly coming to an end which means that it is time to announce the new season of the A1 Adria League. Players from all over the region have had plenty of time to improve their skills, work on teamplay, fix their previous mistakes, and prepare for the beginning of Season 8. The game roster remains the same – CS:GO, League of Legends, Brawl Stars, and FIFA will be available to the regional esport athletes in the following months, whether to participate in the league or just follow the action. A1 Adria League is slowly becoming a pillar of the regional Brawl Stars scene, while FIFA is bigger than ever. CS:GO keeps impressing us time and time again and will be featured for the eighth time this season, while League of Legends’ re-introduction to the A1 Adria League made us remember older memories and eagerly expect the upcoming two seasons.

Dimitrije “DiMKE” Veljković has become the undisputed regional CS:GO champion for the fourth time in a row. Split Raiders were on another level and dominated the competition in League of Legends. Tarik “amke2001” Novo was crowned the back-to-back FIFA champion, and last, but most certainly not least, one of the Noble Elite teams, BLK, outplayed the Brawl Stars teams.

Brawl Stars

With small differences compared to the previous season, Brawl Stars is back once again. We keep stating how Brawl Stars is growing in the region day by day, and that has never been more true than right now. There are enormous amounts of teams playing and competing to reach the next competitive level. A1 Adria League is here to help the players in their journey, as seen recently with the Clash of Leagues where we sent two regional teams to the prestigious tournament.

Two more qualifiers will be added to the qualifying stage of the eighth season. With the total number now being six, teams will have more chances to earn points and qualify for the SWISS stage. Once again, we are featuring a BO5/BO3 SWISS stage which will guarantee that only the very best teams make it through to the double-elimination playoffs.

The 16 best teams of every cup will earn points which will be split in the following manner:

First place – 100 points
Second place – 70 points
Third and fourth place – 50 points
Fifth to eight place – 20 points
Ninth to sixteenth place – 10 points

Just like Season 5, this season’s FIFA league will take place during the usual transitional period for the franchise. Regional FIFA players will play a similar format as Supercell’s Brawl Stars. This has been an exciting year for the regional scene which has had plenty of tournaments so far, and we are sure that the players have prepared well for the eighth A1 Adria League season.

The five open qualifiers will boast a BO2 single elimination bracket with the semifinal and final matches being BO3. After the qualifiers come to an end, the SWISS league participants will transition to FIFA22. The new FIFA22 will be the home of the A1 Adria League during the SWISS stage (BO3) and the playoffs of the league (double-elimination BO3).

Depending on their results, the top 16 players will receive points after every qualifier comes to an end:

First place – 100 points
Second place – 70 points
Third place – 50 points
