Blink advances to the playoff stage with the win over XTEAM!

The group stage of CS:GO competition in the A1 Adria League is soon coming to an end. Last night the fourth round began and we have already seen two teams get eliminated, while one advanced to the next stage of the tournament. Blink is the second team to secure their spot in the playoff, while two more teams after ghoulsW left the league.

Blink joins BLUEJAYS in the playoffs

Yesterday we have seen two Bo3 matches. The first was between 4glory and Monad eSport, and they played all three maps. Both of these teams before this duel had the same score of 1:2 so this match decided who will stay in the league. 4glory in the end came on top, won the first and third match on Inferno and Dust2, while aVN had the most frags in the whole series, 58 overall.  Monad had a great run and showed decent performance, their main player in this duel was PTKKK who secured them the win on Vertigo, but it still wasn’t enough. They didn’t stand a chance on the third map and are now leaving the A1AL.

The second match of the day was played between Blink and XTEAM. Seeing as Blink had a 2:1 score, and XTEAM had 1:2, these teams fought for different things. Blink needed the win to advance to the playoffs, while XTEAM hoped to stay in the league. Unfortunately for XTEAM, Blink was the one who in the end came out victorious and advanced to the next stage. They are the second team to do that, right after BLUEJAYS.

Things were looking good for XTEAM at the beginning. They won the first match on Ancient, which was in fact Blink’s pick, and it seemed like it would be an easy 2:0 win for Gejmzilla’s squad since the second map was their pick. However, Blink managed to pull a comeback on Vertigo and make sure the game would go to all three maps. Inferno went into overtime, but in the end, with 19:16 gulito’s Blink defeated the opponent. XTEAM is the third team to be eliminated so far.

On Saturday another exciting Bo3 duel is waiting for you. Don’t miss the action between Oto100 and Zero Tenacity!

GhoulsW eliminated from A1AL; Zero Tenacity demolished 4glory

The second part of the third round in CS:GO group stage of the A1 Adria League is finished. Last night’s matches decided who is the first team that we are saying goodbye to. GhoulsW didn’t manage to win against their opponents, and this is where their journey for this season ends.

GhoulsW was eliminated by Monad eSport

Last week in the first part of this round we have seen one team advance to the playoffs. It was BLUEJAYS who with a perfect 3:0 score secured the first spot in CS:GO playoffs in A1 Adria League. This time, however, the Bo3 matchup was for staying in the league. GhoulsW and Monad eSport fought for another chance to improve their score. Before this duel, both teams had a 0:2 score, and this match was decided to see who will stay in our league. Monad didn’t let their opponent breathe, and they didn’t even let it go to three maps. They secured their wins on Vertigo and Mirage, as well as their first win in the league. Mirage was a close one with a 16:13 result, while on Vertigo Monad dominated and won it with only three lost rounds. This is the third loss for ghoulsW and they are eliminated from the league with a 0:3 score.

The other match of the day was Bo1 and it was played between Zero Tenacity and 4glory. Both teams had a 1:1 score before this duel, and the team that put themselves in a great position with a win yesterday was Z10. They stomped their opponent on Mirage, while 4glory was practically invisible. Even though the score was 16:9 the superiority of Zero Tenacity was clear as the day. Nemanha was the best man on the squad with 24 frags.

BLINK and XTEAM first to secure group stage in A1 Adria League!

After a long Sunday, the first qualifier for CS:GO is over. We have seen almost 50 teams competing, but only the best two could advance to the group stage of our A1 Adria League. The first two teams that secured their spot in the regular season in CS:GO are BLINK and XTEAM.

The great return of BLINK

We have been the witnesses of yet another great start of the season in CS:GO. Many familiar faces, and a lot of new talented teams. In the very beginning two, well-known teams were very unlucky to meet each other in the first round. It was Zero Tenacity that was drafted versus BLINK. Zero Tenacity didn’t succeed in defeating their opponents and their journey ended even before it started. BLINK is a familiar team in A1 Adria League, even though they didn’t compete for a few previous seasons, when they did, they always showed great skill. The dominant force in the form of BLINK is back for the ninth season and they made a statement in the first qualifier.

BLINK defeated many teams today, as well as another well-known team in the region Martin Rising. They faced each other in the quarterfinals and BLINK came out victorious. In the Bo3 semifinals, they defeated Seychelles 2:1 and secured a spot in the group stage.

On the other side of the bracket, it was XTEAM that dominated. They had a long way to the finals and beat many familiar teams such as MONAD eSports which are also a very good regional CS:GO team. In the quarterfinals, they took down ghoulsW with the same result as BLINK, 2:1.

Gejmzilla on the side of XTEAM and gulito for BLINK did a great job today leading their teams to the group stage of A1AL.

The second qualifier, where we will see another two teams join the ones who already qualified, is going to be held next Sunday, April 17th. Sign up here if you want to compete with the best regional CS:GO teams and have a chance at the 5000€ prize pool!
