Welcome to ADV World Cup I. Hosts for ADV World Cup are Zpice , July , and IncredibleKing .

8 weeks of Chaos, and the dust has settled. 18 nations started this tour, on the hunt to bring home the glory, and now after brutal games and battles, we have our final contestants.

Presenting in the Red Corner,
La nación que dominó los océanos durante siglos, conquistando más de la mitad del mundo, es España, que busca recuperar su gloria y dominar el mundo conquistando la Copa del Mundo.

Capitaneados por SEROO y Sheik :, han tenido una actuación impresionante en este torneo. Su jugador más valioso en los playoffs ha sido el increíble Garay oak, quien hasta ahora se mantiene invicto con un récord de 4-0, liderando al equipo hacia las eliminatorias.

España sabe que tiene el talento y la determinación para conseguir el título, y solo les queda un obstáculo más en su camino. Sus capitanes y sus aficionados gritarán con todas sus fuerzas: "¡Vamos, España, carajo!".

Now, presenting in the Green Corner,
La nazione che ha donato la cultura all'Europa, l'Italia, punta a riportare in auge i fasti dell'Impero Romano conquistando la Coppa del Mondo.

Guidata dai capitani bello figo e Prinz, la squadra ha dimostrato una forza inaudita durante questo torneo. Due dei suoi giocatori, Sachumberto e Prinz, sono rimasti imbattuti nei playoff, portando la squadra alla fase finale.

L'Italia porta con sé potenza e aggressività. Dopo aver già conquistato la RCoP quest'anno, ha un solo ostacolo da superare per non solo aggiudicarsi il titolo, ma anche per lanciare un messaggio forte e chiaro. Dimostreranno al mondo di essere i migliori giocatori della vecchia generazione. I loro capitani e i loro tifosi grideranno a gran voce: "Avanti Savoia!".

Tiebreaker

The Finals will continue with both teams refusing to give in. España took the early lead with a 2-0 with Captain Sheik : and M Dragon claiming dominant wins, but l'Italia mounted an insane comeback on the back of captain Prinz leading the charge to bring it to 2-1. However, Garay oak showed why he is España's secret weapon by halting the fightback. However, l'Italia showed immense resilience to tie the scores with back to back wins from Figull400 and Sachumberto's bravado.

We now go into the last dance of these titans. Who will emerge victorious?

La final continúa con ambos equipos negándose a rendirse. España tomó la delantera con un 2-0 gracias a las contundentes victorias del capitán Sheik y M Dragon, pero Italia protagonizó una remontada espectacular liderada por su capitán Prinz, que redujo la desventaja a 2-1. Sin embargo, Garay oak demostró por qué es el arma secreta de España al frenar la reacción italiana. Aun así, Italia mostró una enorme resiliencia y logró empatar el marcador con dos victorias consecutivas de Figull400 y Sachumberto.

Ahora llega el momento decisivo para estos titanes. ¿Quién se alzará con la victoria?

Le finali proseguono con entrambe le squadre che si rifiutano di arrendersi. La Spagna si è portata in vantaggio per 2-0 grazie alle vittorie schiaccianti del capitano Sheik e di M Dragon, ma l'Italia ha messo in atto una rimonta incredibile, guidata dal capitano Prinz, portando il punteggio sul 2-1. Tuttavia, Garay oak ha dimostrato di essere l'arma segreta della Spagna, bloccando la rimonta avversaria. Nonostante ciò, l'Italia ha mostrato un'enorme resilienza, pareggiando i conti con due vittorie consecutive, frutto del coraggio di Figull400 e Sachumberto.

Ora ci prepariamo all'ultimo atto di questa epica sfida tra titani. Chi uscirà vincitore?

Special s/o to Ale Duncan and Amaranth for the trust in roapl earlier this year, this 4-2 was the start of everything

This Rcup and ADVwcup b2b win is amazing (even if I could've done better than 2-2 in the 1st one), I'm happy with my performance in this tour (especially after the 1-2 start)

s/o to all wsj and especially the goat FJ2K who helped me at my adv start

And finally ofc big s/o to the whole Italy team, everyone has been goated, I won't make it longer cause yall already know it, daje Italia, this tour was sooooo long, glad we come home with the trophy
 
First of all, massive respect to team Spain and all the teams we have defeated to reach this trophy. The level was absurdly high, and luck smiled at us when it counted. Nothing but respect for your run.

And now… team Italy.
If we had told people at the start of this ADV World Cup that Italy would lift the trophy, most would’ve made fun of us or scrolled past. We weren’t the favorites, we weren’t hyped, and we definitely weren’t supposed to be here. And yet here we are.

We won by doing everything we could, from staying calm under pressure, prepping like pros (the bello figo difference?), trusting each other even when things went south, to clutching wins when it mattered most. We defied all expectations (even ours). As manager, I couldn’t be prouder. Watching this group grow through the tournament and prove everyone wrong has been unreal

Some well-deserved shoutouts:

Prinz my co-captain, you tried to convince us you were washed. That's cap! You showed us why you are the GOAT italian ADVer, from winning national championships on NBF when I was still in diapers to guiding us to this trophy today. I'm glad to be your friend and to share with you my adventures even before of our mons talk.

Figull400 you showed everyone why you are one of the best, win after win. I'm happy you were our "third" cap, your ideas and knowledge proved to be always crucial. You are a veteran, can't wait to see you in SPL brother.

Sachumberto in the playoffs you stepped up, when things got tense, you got better. That’s a skill you either have or you don’t, and you have this clutch gene. I'm really happy to share another trophy with you.

coco triplete?

4lowray your energy and passion were contagious, your performance in the pools and team support were vital to our success. Keep going because you have much more success awaits you!

Amaranth no panic, no stress, just showing up and doing your job every single time we needed you. Your willingness to help and listen to our advice, and then ability to bring your skills in game were fundamental when we needed you, thank you. Exactly the kind of player you want deep in a run.

Just_Leonardo your performance in the pool was awesome, don't let the losses get to you. You know your potential and how much more you can achieve with the right mindset. Never back down!

Megahorn a pleasant surprise. We had to bring back a fossil like you for this tour, and even if your only game didn't go the way we wished for, you brought lots of ideas, creativity and energy. You did way more than the sheet shows and I'm happy you could get this trophy with us. Megahorn Only Fans.

BluesEnergy00 I will use Coco's words "Performence da rivedere fratm. Ma si o chiu fort p me"

diegoyuhhi after LGPE PL unreal bad luck, we were able to win together here. Thanks for stepping up as a sub and for always providing keen insights and helpful ideas.

F-00 AMULETO. The human lucky charm himself.
