LoL: GIANTX vs SK Gaming (BO3) - LEC Regular Season

Platform comparison

Market context

GIANTX beat SK Gaming 2-0 in their April meeting this season, and that is the freshest direct form line for a match between these two. The market’s 60% yes price therefore leans towards GIANTX on recent head-to-head evidence, although the broader split remains fairly even: current head-to-head databases show GIANTX and SK Gaming trading wins across the last few LEC seasons rather than one side dominating outright.[1][2][3]

That makes the present probability easier to read as a modest GIANTX favourite rather than a strong one. Across recent summaries, GIANTX have been the slightly better side in the pair’s latest meetings, while SK Gaming still have enough historical wins to keep this from being a one-way profile; several trackers also show both teams around middling recent form rather than a clear hot streak.[3][4][12]

For traders, the main catalysts are simple: whether the scheduled BO3 starts on time, whether the line-up announcement matches the expected roster, and whether any last-minute LEC schedule changes affect the fixture list. Live match pages are already listing the game for 1 August, which reduces but does not remove operational risk around delay or cancellation; if the series begins and is completed normally, the settlement is likely to follow the on-stage winner rather than market noise.[6][7][14]

Methodology

This page is a comparison snapshot: one live quote, four reference venues with their key attributes, and a single execution path — every trade button routes to Prediction Today, which mirrors the Polymarket order book directly.

Resolution & payout

Polymarket-based markets settle through the UMA Optimistic Oracle on Polygon. A proposer submits the outcome, a two-hour challenge window opens, and unchallenged proposals finalise the resolution. Payouts settle automatically in USDC the moment the result is final — no bookmaker, no delay.

Kalshi-based markets settle in USD via the CFTC-regulated clearinghouse. Betfair Exchange settles in GBP/EUR net of commission. Manifold is play-money and does not pay out real funds.
