The A1AL LAN event in Zagreb is closer than ever! This weekend the last group stage rounds were played in CS2, EAFC, and Brawl Stars, as FC Mobile finished the week before. Only the best made it through and we will watch them compete for the champion title live from the 14th to the 17th of November. Currently, only the PUBG competition remains, and it will be played next weekend. But before that, let’s see who secured their spot in the 14th season of the A1 Adria League.

The top four in Brawl Stars competition

As always the first to take the stage were Brawl Stars teams. On Friday the final phase of the online A1AL S14 in Brawl Stars was played, where teams competed to join Frutas at the LAN final in Zagreb. As you know, Frutas already secured their spot, with impeccable performance the previous weekend.

In the first match of the day, Fantastic eSport defeated La Masia 3:0. Fantastic eSport had a second chance to reach the top 4, making the most of it with a 2:0 win in Gem Grab, a 2:1 win in Bounty, and a 2:0 win in Hot Zone. With only one lost set, they secured their finale spot, ending La Masia’s journey in this A1AL season.

Secondly, Gospodin Adry advanced over FBI by default, as FBI, despite progressing through the main tournament, did not appear on the last online day, automatically giving the win to Gospodin Adry.

Delulu overcame Team Cherry 3:1 in the third match of the competition. Although Team Cherry opened strong with a 2:0 win in Gem Grab, Delulu made a comeback, winning 2:1 in Bounty and 2:1 in Hot Zone, before clinching the final victory in Knockout with a 2:0 win. This turnaround secured Delulu’s spot in the LAN.

Lastly, Gospodin Adry defeated Team Cherry 3:1 for the last spot in the top 4. After advancing directly, Gospodin Adry faced Cherry, who had one last chance to reach the top 4. Gospodin Adry took an early lead with a 2:1 win in Gem Grab, but Cherry equalized after winning 2:1 in Bounty. The two teams battled intensely in Hot Zone, with Gospodin Adry reclaiming the lead after a 2:1 win. In the final round, Gospodin Adry secured their place in the top 4 with a 2:1 victory in Knockout.

A1AL awaiting new EAFC champion

The evening saw intense action in the A1AL EAFC competition, with top players Gruby, Teo, PLGNN Matke, and Nemanja Mišić competing in thrilling matches as they fought for a spot in the final tournament in Zagreb. Marko Grubišić, known as Gruby, and Teo Radman managed to secure their places in the LAN finals after dramatic games filled with skillful play and high-scoring goals.

Champion of the 10th season again at LAN

In the matchup between Gruby and Teo, Gruby won the first game 4:2, with standout performances from Bale and Kvarachelia, who scored pivotal goals. Teo’s scorers, Schelin and Son, couldn’t quite match Gruby’s pace, though they kept it competitive. The second game ended in a 3:3 draw after a hat-trick from Teo’s Vinicius and additional goals from Gruby’s Kvarachelia and Ratter, showcasing the teams’ balanced abilities. With his solid performance, Gruby solidified his position as a contender in the finals.

Meanwhile, in an off-stream match, PLGNN Matke faced Nemanja Mišić, but Mišić dominated with two wins (3:2 and 5:0), effectively eliminating Matke from further competition. Following this, Gruby took on Mišić in a closely contested matchup. Their first game was a 1:1 draw, with goals from Mišić’s Putellas and Gruby’s Mbappe. In the second game, Gruby’s Mbappe scored twice to secure a 2:0 win, demonstrating Gruby’s consistency and advancing him to the top 4.

Teo’s next match was against Matke. Teo won their first off-stream game 5:3 and secured the second game 3:1, with Son and Vinicius scoring late to seal the victory. This result eliminated Matke and set Teo up as a formidable opponent in the upcoming LAN finals. Gruby further cemented his place in the top 4 with another off-stream win over Matke (4:3 and 3:2), confirming his spot among the top players.

Miško dropped the final in a dramatic ending

The final match to determine the LAN qualifiers featured Teo against Mišić. The first game was an intense 2:2 draw, with Mišić initially taking the lead twice through Bale and Cristiano Ronaldo. On the other hand, Teo’s Vinicius managed to equalize in stoppage time after a defensive error by van Dijk. In the second game, Mišić again gained a two-goal advantage, thanks to Valverde and Son, but Teo made a stunning comeback. Karolin Graham Hansen scored twice, with Vinicius adding a final goal after an assist from Salah, clinching the match and securing Teo’s spot in the final four.

As the tournament heads to the LAN finals in Zagreb, the lineup is now set. Gruby, Teo, Brstimir, and Parla will compete on November 15th for the title of the best EAFC player in the region. The stage is set for an exciting conclusion to the season, with fans eagerly awaiting the crowning of the new A1 Adria League champion.

0to100 and Kubix complete the Season 14 top four in CS2

This Sunday the last two duels were played for the final two A1AL spots in the CS2 competition. After Juggernats and Z10 advanced to the finale, they were joined by 0to100 and Kubix completing the best four teams. Oto100 defeated Baklava Gaming, while Kubix bested GOT.

In the match between 0to100 and Baklava Gaming on Dust II, Baklava began with a strong 5:0 lead. After a timeout, 0to100 rallied, winning six consecutive rounds to take the lead. The first half ended evenly at 6:6. The second half saw 0to100 dominate, conceding only a few rounds to Baklava and ultimately securing a 13:8 victory.

On Mirage, Baklava’s T0mann started with a pistol ACE, helping them win the first three rounds. 0to100 quickly responded, leveling the score at 3:3, then pushing ahead to 4:3. By halftime, 0to100 held an 8:4 advantage. Like Dust II, they claimed the second pistol round and controlled the half, winning Mirage 13:8.

In the GOT versus Kubix matchup, Kubix came out aggressively on Inferno, establishing a 4:0 lead. After exchanging rounds, Kubix closed out Inferno dominantly with a 13:4 score. This was a pretty one-sided game and a clean win for Kubix.

The Dust II game opened with GOT taking a commanding 6:0 lead. Kubix then won four rounds, but GOT closed the half with an 8:4 lead. Kubix recovered in the second half, leveling the score at 8:8 and pulling ahead to 10:8. GOT tied it again at 10:10, but the teams traded rounds in a back-and-forth finish. Ultimately, Kubix edged out GOT with a final score of 13:11. It was amazing and exciting to watch these two teams try so hard to secure the finale. Unfortunately, even though they both showed extraordinary performance, only one could make it.

April 9, 2023/1 Comment/in Featured, FIFA, News /by galadriela

The first FIFA23 qualifier has ended in favor of Harun “Hara” Parla who defeated the current FIFA champion Marko “Gruby” Grubisic. Out of 180 players Hara managed to get to the top of the competition and earn himself 100 points. Gruby in second place got 70 points, which was also a really good start to the tournament.

Hara wins the first FIFA qualfier

As you already know FIFA competition in the A1 Adria League has four qualifiers, where the players compete in order to earn as many points as they can. In the end, the best eight players, with the most points and best performance are entering the league and the group stage.

The first qualifier was really interesting to watch, and we saw some familiar names again. Brstimir, Gruby, Hara, Esad1memic, Tarik Novo, arminho, and many others all entered the competition, while some unfamiliar players also showed promising performances.

Like last year Gruby was once again better than Tarik Novo, this time in the fifth round when the former got a win and advanced further in the competition reaching the finals. Hara, his opponent in the finals, is an old A1AL player and he also took down big names such as Esad1memic and arminho. In the grand finals, it was Parla who was better, and in the decider match, he snatched a win on the penalties, making it 2:1 in the overall score.

The match for third place was played between Armin “arminho” Hasanbegovic and Filip “FIFAFICO” Babic, and Fico came out victorious and earned himself 50 points, while Arminho got 40.

The second FIFA23 qualifier is scheduled for next week, April 14th, when the players will fight for even more points and a chance to play with the best regional players. If you still haven’t signed up for it you can do it HERE!

Everything you need to know about the FIFA group stage in Season 10

September 28, 2022/0 Comments/in All, FIFA, News /by Luka Marušić

FIFA qualifiers for the tenth season of the A1 Adria League are over! Among the fierce competition, eight players managed to secure their spot in the group stage.

The FIFA trio is back in Season 10

Tarik “Novo” Novo (amke) dominated the leaderboard in the qualifiers with 220 points. At this point, it shouldn’t be a surprise that Novo is confirming his spot as the best FIFA player in the region. In the upcoming season, we’ll be watching esad1memic and brstimir again, excellent players that were challenging Novo in previous seasons. Gruby managed to secure second place with overall 160 points and is looking really good going into the group stage. Hara grabbed third place with 130 points. The same amount that esad1memic has. Brstimir is just below them. The remaining three players are Sardinho213, Encika, and BrunoGuimaraes21. Every season we have at least one underdog that pops up into the scene and brings chaos amongst the favorites. Who will it be this season?

FIFA 23 is the name of the game

The playing field will be somewhat evened out a bit with a switch to the new FIFA game. The rest of Season 10 will be played on FIFA 23. Maybe that is the chance for other players to dethrone Novo. Players will have some time to adapt to the new game and build their teams. Every year at the same time we switch to the latest FIFA game, so this shouldn’t come as a surprise to any of the players or fans.

A1 Adria League Season 10 FIFA Schedule

Since we gave players some time to adjust to the new game we also made some changes to the schedule. Don’t worry, you can find the whole schedule below. FIFA will be played on Fridays (mostly). Except for the second round which will be played on Wednesday 12th of October. As per usual, all the games will be live-streamed on the A1 Adria League channels.

SWISS Round 1 – 7.10.2022., 20:00

SWISS Round 2 – 12.10.2022., 20:00

SWISS Round 3 – 14.10.2022., 20:00

SWISS Round 4 – 21.10.2022., 20:00

SWISS Round 5 – 28.10.2022., 20:00

Gruby was victorious in the fourth qualifier

We are getting closer to starting the group stage in A1 Adria League. CS:GO and FIFA22 qualifiers are finished, and we have our competitors in both games. These qualifiers weren’t surprising, as almost all the favorites secured their spot in the League. The four-time champion Tarik “Novo” Novo dominated the qualifiers once again and secured first place with 220 points. He managed to win some of the qualifiers, as well as Brstimir who we saw being the most successful in the second one.

Many talented players joined the competition such as Gruby, Hara, Bruno, as well as some familiar names such as Encika, esad1memic, and many others. The fact that we had a tiebreaker for eighth place says how intense and close the last qualifier was. Namely, Bruno “BrunoGuimaraes21” Svetina and Đorđe “JasikFIFA” Cumbo had the same amount of points and fought for the last spot in the A1AL. In the end, it was Bruno who made it through with 75 points.

Aside from Novo who is ahead with 220 points, other players aren’t that far apart. Gruby is in second place with 160 points, while Hara and esad1memic both have 130 points. Below them are Brstimir and Sardinho213 who share 120 points. Needless to say that the next stage will be more exciting than ever.

It remains to be seen if any of these seven players have what it takes to take king Novo down from the throne. For the last two years, no one has been able to do it as Tarik took home four titles in a row. The FIFA22 group stage begins on October 7th.

Amke wins the first FIFA 22 qualifier over almost 100 players

Despite a lot of players signing up for the first FIFA 22 qualifier for the tenth season of the A1 Adria League, Tarik “Amke” Novo managed to secure the win.

Amke continues his domination

It’s always a pleasure to see a lot of new players joining the A1 Adria League community. Last Friday we had the opportunity to witness a lot of new faces competing for the points in the first FIFA 22 qualifier. In the end, most of the favorites did their job and claimed some points. It’s just the first qualifier, which means we still have three qualifiers left to determine who will be advancing to the group stage.

Standings ended up looking like this. Amke won over Harun “Hara” Parla and secured 100 points. That left Hara with 70 points after the first qualifier. Gruby won third place and 50 points by beating last Mrky2402 in the Croatian derby. You can check all the results on the qualifier page.

The second qualifier will take place on Friday the 9th of September; you can already sign up for it!
