Market context

OG face Team Yandex in a BLAST Slam Group Stage best-of-one match scheduled for 27 May at 05:10 ET. The 0% implied probability reflects the current unavailability of reliable odds data for this fixture, rather than any assessment of OG's competitive standing. Both teams are confirmed participants in the tournament structure, though fixture confirmations for early-stage group play often remain fluid until 48 hours before scheduled start times.

OG's recent form provides the primary reference point for evaluating match likelihood. The organisation has maintained top-tier Dota 2 roster stability through 2024–2025, competing consistently in Valve-sponsored majors and regional qualifiers. Team Yandex, by contrast, operates within the Eastern European competitive circuit and has limited recent exposure in international LAN environments. Historical matchups between established tier-one squads and regionally-focused opponents typically favour the former by substantial margins, though group-stage formats occasionally produce unexpected results when preparation time is compressed or meta shifts favour unconventional strategies.

Traders should monitor official BLAST tournament announcements for any roster changes or schedule adjustments, particularly given the early morning ET slot which sometimes triggers logistical complications. Confirmation of both teams' final lineups and any last-minute stand-in declarations will arrive within 24 hours of match time. The settlement window's 7-day buffer for delayed matches provides protection against fixture postponement, though BLAST events typically maintain strict scheduling discipline. Watch for any public statements from either organisation regarding participation status or technical issues affecting preparation.

Methodology

Methodologically we separate two layers: the live probability (Polymarket mid-price) and the platform attributes (fee, KYC, settlement currency, payment rails). The odds column is filled only where we have clean data — that avoids the made-up numbers that get a network demoted when search engines cross-check against the source venue.

Resolution & payout

At resolution the UMA oracle takes over: a proposer posts the outcome with a bond, any token holder can dispute within two hours. Without dispute the result is accepted and the smart contract distributes USDC instantly.

On Kalshi (CFTC-regulated) resolution runs through their in-house clearing engine in USD. Betfair Exchange settles after match end in the account's local currency. Manifold pays no cash — only its in-platform "mana" currency.
