Market context
The Esports World Cup 2026 Group Stage clash between 1win and Team Yandex is underway today in Paris, with the best-of-two series scheduled to start at 04:30 local time. Current market data shows a 0% implied probability for additional markets resolving positively, reflecting a consensus that the series outcome is either already decided or the event conditions for those specific props have failed to materialise. Hawk Live reports a live score of 0–3 favouring Team Yandex, a result that contradicts the best-of-two format description and suggests the match may have concluded under different rules or the data feed reflects a cumulative group stage tally rather than this specific series [1].
Historical precedents in Group D show both teams sitting at identical 3–0–1 records, indicating a tight competitive balance where additional markets often hinge on single-map volatility rather than series dominance [5]. Comparable cases from the Esports World Cup suggest that when top-tier squads like Yandex and 1win share first place, the probability of "more markets" (such as specific kill counts or map handicaps) resolving positively drops significantly if one side secures an early, decisive lead, as the remaining game time becomes insufficient for prop thresholds to be met.
Traders should monitor the official Esports World Cup match centre for final score confirmation and any post-match roster announcements, as 1win recently integrated the Tundra Esports squad, which could influence future performance metrics but not this settled event [3]. The primary catalyst remains the official resolution of the series score; if the 0–3 figure is confirmed as the final result, the settlement window will close with no further action, rendering the 0% probability accurate for the remainder of the trading period [2].
Methodology
We track Dota 2: 1win vs Team Yandex - More Markets across the five venues with material prediction-market liquidity. The probability shown is the live Polymarket mid; the comparison rows summarise how each venue treats the underlying contract — fees, KYC thresholds, settlement currency, deposit options. The highlighted row marks the cheapest route into Polymarket's order book.
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.

- The YES/NO percentages are the live mid-prices of the Polymarket order book. On deep markets they move every few seconds; on thinner ones you'll see short plateaus.
