OMERT4 conclude the Brawl Stars qualifying stage with a win!

A week later than FIFA, Brawl Stars has also concluded its qualifying phase. Here is what happened in our last qualifier for the season!

BalkanTalentsEsport had a great sixth qualifier. Their first opponents were Ez Clappers, whom BalkanTalentsEsport bested with ease. Next, they faced pop off, another team with a similar number of points. After they won that duel, they were the first team to advance to one of the semifinals, and their final enemies before the grand finals were Dominjo carry. Dominjo carry were ready to make a finals appearance after going throughout the entire qualifier without many problems, but BalkanTalentsEsport stopped them in their tracks.

A thing unseen so far in the eighth season happened today. Salada de Frutas, the absolute favorites of this season, didn’t want to play today and gave free win to Omert4 in the earlier stages of the qualifier. OMERT4 also outplayed Winx Club and Reborn Legends Esports. The final qualifier of this season concluded with a great match between OMERT4 and BalkanTalentsEsport, and together with Inder45, we watched how both teams fought fiercely to get the last 100 points. Omert4 succeeded in defeating BalkanTalentsEsport and claimed the prize in the end.

 

With the qualifying phase coming to an end, we know the eight SWISS stage participants:

OMERT4 stun WINX CLUB in the Brawl Stars opener!

The player break is over and the A1 Adria League is BACK! In our first Brawl Stars qualifier, OMERT4 and Wiinx Club finished first and second, respectively.

As mentioned in the announcement, this season will feature six Brawl Stars qualifiers that will be played on a new platform, Challengermode. Yesterday, our Brawlers entered the arenas again to fight for their first points in this season. Over 70 teams registered for this qualifier, but only eight of them advanced far enough to earn points.

Dominjo Carry, Night_Alpha, QuickMind, and Omerta Blue managed to reach the quarterfinals. Each one of these teams earned 20 points and will play the second qualifier with a small advantage over the other teams. Even further in the bracket, Lightning Strike and Ez Clappers ended their first playday in the 3-4. positions that earn them 50 points each. The grand final was a clash between Wiinx Club and OMERT4. A quick 3-0 victory secured the main 100 points for OMERT4, while Wiinx Club will have to be satisfied with 70. Our next qualifier will be played next Thursday, and registrations are already OPEN!

Brawl Stars is over for this week, but now is the time to see who will outplay the competition in FIFA! Watch our FIFA broadcast tomorrow, starting at precisely 12 o’clock.

Clash of Leagues draws to a close; SK Gaming claim the crown!

After two convincing victories in the LAN stage of the tournament, the world’s top team, SK Gaming, has won €2,000 and the Clash of Leagues champions title.

It has certainly been a wild ride since the announcement of the Clash of Leagues was revealed two months ago. The €5,000-worth tournament brought together teams from 15 European countries and from five of Europe’s most prestigious esports leagues. Among them, two Adriatic teams set on a journey to reach the LAN finals and represent the region on the European scene. First, Omerta, our newly-appointed team after the combining of Noble Elite Red and BLK, played the group stage. They had their moments but didn’t prove good enough against the fierce competition that also competed during the seven playdays.

Noble Elite were next in line. Despite losing their semifinal match against BIG, DzonDzon & co. bounced back in the lower bracket and secured one of the four LAN spots along with SK Gaming, BIG, and Chernobyl Dribblers. All four teams traveled to Salzburg to clash one final time and decide who is the undisputed Brawl Stars champion of Central & East Europe. Noble Elite and SK Gaming played against each other in the first semifinal. Despite having a good recent form, the new Clash of Leagues champions were too big of a challenge for the regional team. Noble Elite ended the single-elimination bracket with a 0-3 loss. Next up were BIG and Chernobyl Dribblers, a match that saw the former advance ahead to make for an all-German final.

And what a final it was. Until the very last second, both teams stood equal in the arena and we witnessed a clash of epic proportions. In the end, however, only one team could lift the winner’s trophy and this time, that team was SK Gaming. Symantic, SkYRiiKZz, and Jeton are the Clash of Leagues champions. Congratulations to SK Gaming, all other teams and players, and everyone included in the Clash of Leagues.

Clash of Leagues’ €5,000 prize pool was split in the following manner:

1. SK Gaming – €2,000
2. BIG – €1,000
3-4. Chernobyl Dribblers – €500
3-4.hrrs Noble Elite – €500

The Brawl Stars action is over now, but not for long. Next Thursday, a new A1 Adria League season of Brawl Stars starts with six open qualifiers. Sign up and who knows, you may very well become the next regional champion!

Noble Elite face Crystal Gaming Red in the quarterfinals!

After an intense three-week group stage, Clash of Leagues has finally reached the final stage of the tournament.

Eight teams will try to go through the single-elimination bracket and secure their spot in the €5,000 final that will be played on LAN. Five winners from the five European leagues that are part of Clash of Leagues were directly promoted to this stage, while another three had to fight in the group stage to reach this level. One of the teams playing in the group stage were Omerta, but they were unable to successfully qualify for the finals.

BIG, Crystal Gaming Red, and Bulgarian Pros are the three squads that will face off against the veterans to decide who goes to the LAN tournament. Bulgarian Pros are set to clash against SK Gaming in their very first match. Crystal Gaming Red will play against Noble Elite, the superteam made out of players from both Noble Elite Red and BLK, and they will be representing the A1 Adria League. We will watch BIG and Chernobyl Dribblers battle it out, and last, but not least, Platoon and Swisscom Knights have a quarterfinal match in their schedules.

It is only going to get more intense from now on. You can watch the action and support Noble Elite on our official streaming channels (YouTubeTwitchTrovoFacebook).

DzonDzon, Noble Elite: “See you in the Finals!”

Omerta will not be playing today’s match versus FreeWin because it was canceled, but we are still expecting awesome matches.

Today, Day 7 & the tiebreaker will be played out. Currently, BIG, OKA Gaming, and Crystal Gaming Red are amongst the best three teams, with Bulgarian Pros still having a chance to qualify for the playoffs. OKA Gaming came in the groups as one of the qualified sides, but they have been turning heads all season. They are also a team that has placed top 4 in all seasons of the A1 eSports League in Austria and they have participated in major tournaments such as BBL and GBL.

Then there are BIG, the undisputed champions of the group stage. They came in strong and they showed the other teams who’s the boss. The third place is currently occupied by Crystal Gaming Red, an organization from Switzerland that has met teams such as SK Gaming and OKA on multiple occasions and proved to be worthy opponents of such highly-skilled squads. CGR are tied with Bulgarian Pros, and the top 3 standings could very well change in the aftermath of today’s playday.

We also took the time to ask DzonDzon, one of the Noble Elite players for his thoughts about the Clash of Leagues:

Which teams impressed you the most in the group stage of the Clash of Leagues?

Of course, except for BIG, a team that everyone predicted would go through to the final stage, Bulgarian Pros really surprised me with their game.

How well do you think Omerta played the groups?

Omerta had a big chance to prove themselves on the big stage, but I think that they didn’t prepare enough for Clash of Leagues. But for a team that is playing a big event for the first time, it wasn’t bad at all.

What are some things that Omerta could have done better in their matches?

They have to work on their composition a lot, when to play which Brawlers, micro and macro things in the game, but they can learn all that by playing scrims.

What are your expectations heading into the quarterfinals that are starting soon?

Our expectations are.. I will keep this short – see you on LAN!

Tune in tonight and watch the last group stage playday of this big European Brawl Stars tournament:

 

Omerta skip a match; on the verge of disqualification in Clash of Leagues!

Instead of playing yesterday’s match against Crystal Gaming Red, Omerta missed it and are now facing disqualification from the Clash of Leagues.

Crystal Gaming Red and Omerta were supposed to play during Day 6 of the Clash of Leagues which was played out yesterday. The second-placed team had the favorite role in this match, but our Serbian team could have still held their ground and fought to upset the team. However, when the time to start the match arrived, Omerta were nowhere to be seen. Whether it was because they had technical difficulties, or they simply decided to skip the match because they can’t qualify for the playoffs anymore, the tournament administration is currently making a decision about Omerta’s future in the league.

If they decide to disqualify Omerta, it will be the second such decision in the group stage, after papahellfans were disqualified a couple of rounds ago. If not, we will watch Omerta during the remaining group stage matches where they will fight to earn the highest possible place on the leaderboard.

What do you think, will Omerta finish the group stage or will they leave a bit earlier than other teams?

Omerta

Crystal Gaming Red are Omerta’s next opponents!

While there aren’t any chances of reaching the final stage, Omerta are still more than eager to defeat their opponents until the end of the groups.

Today, Omerta are facing Crystal Gaming Red, a great, talented squad that has been a thorn to other teams throughout the Clash of Leagues. This team is placed second, six points behind the absolute favorites, BIG. They are tied with OKA Gaming, the team that destroyed all chances of Omerta qualifying for the final stages in the last playday. Seeing as these two teams are tied on the leaderboard, we can expect a match of similar quality today as well. Omerta are ready and able to defeat names such as Crystal Gaming Red, and they are going to give it their best tonight.

Make sure to join in the stream and support our squad in their match versus Crystal Gaming Red:

Omerta are playing two matches today and can win up to four points which would place them amongst the top three teams on the leaderboard. Tune in at 18 o’clock and watch their matches together with SupremeNexus (YouTubeTwitchTrovoFacebook).

Omerta lose the deciding match against OKA Gaming!

Omerta have lost all chances of qualifying for the Clash of Leagues playoffs after yesterday’s defeat versus OKA Gaming.

Since the double playday when Omerta split the prey, winning one and losing one match, their chances of reaching the next stage of the Clash of Leagues were slim to none. After yesterday, however, even that slight chance is gone. The first of three matches Omerta would have had to win in order to qualify for the playoffs didn’t end in favor of the regional team. OKA Gaming proved too tough of an opponent to beat and Omerta fell to sixth place after the match came to an end.

BIG are the absolute best team in the group stage with a 12-0 W-L ratio. The runners-up team is Crystal Gaming Red, while OKA Gaming are tied with CGR but take up third place. Bulgarian Pros stand in fourth place, and after them, we can see KMRGMR and Omerta with 6 points each. The seventh place is occupied by FreeWin, while the disqualified side, papahellfans, takes the bottom place on the leaderboard. The teams have a break that will last a couple of days and we will be back with more Brawl Stars action on the 10th of August.

 

Omerta face OKA Gaming in the fifth round!

Round 5 of the Clash of Leagues will be played out today, with Omerta probably playing their most important match yet in the tournament.

The last playday featured a total of two rounds in one day. The leaderboard changed drastically after those two rounds as the top teams are steadily securing the first three spots. However, there is plenty of time to change the final rankings and Omerta will certainly give their best to do exactly that. The Serbian team needs to win every single one of their remaining matches to advance further in the Clash of Leagues.

Last time, Omerta showed great resilience in the two matches they played. Bulgarian Pros managed to outplay them in the end, but their victory against KMRGMR gave them a slim but existing chance to come back in the group stage. Today, their opponents are OKA Gaming. While certainly not the toughest opponent Omerta have faced, the match versus OKA Gaming is their most important one yet. If they lose this matchup, their chances of reaching the final stage are over. If they win, they will have to repeat this success two more time to join the top 8 of the Clash of Leagues.

Tune in at 18 o’clock and watch OKA Gaming vs. Omerta together with SupremeNexus (YouTube, Twitch, Trovo, Facebook).

Omerta split the prey in Clash of Leagues: Super Week!

Two rounds of the Clash of Leagues came to an end in only one day filled with action-packed Brawl Stars action.

Each team played two matches today. BIG once again proved their worth with two 2-0 victories. Their victims were Crystal Gaming Red and FreeWin. Crystal Gaming Red were better than KMRGMR, and the latter lost their second match as well. This time, their opponent was our regional squad, Omerta. While they said that KMRGMR were going to be the tougher opponents, Omerta actually achieved a better result versus this team.

Omerta were placed against Bulgarian Pros in their other match. This time, they weren’t so successful and the Bulgarian side beat them without losing a set. A loss and a win for Omerta now puts the team in 5th place on the Clash of Leagues leaderboard. In order to advance to the playoffs, Omerta have a difficult task ahead of them. To place among the best three teams, Omerta would have to win every match until the end of the group stage.
