Platform comparison

Active sub-markets

Market context

RUSTEC and HEROIC Academy are scheduled to contest a best-of-three Counter-Strike match on 13 June at 07:00 ET as part of CCT Europe Series #4 Group Stage competition. The fixture represents a Round 3 encounter within a structured regional qualifier format, where both organisations field competitive rosters competing for circuit points and qualification advancement. Settlement occurs at the scheduled match start time plus a seven-day grace period; matches delayed beyond this window or cancelled outright trigger a 50-50 resolution regardless of eventual outcome.

The 100% implied probability reflects either exceptionally high confidence in match completion or sparse liquidity typical of regional qualifier fixtures outside peak trading windows. Historical CCT Europe events show consistent match execution rates above 95%, with cancellations predominantly driven by roster unavailability rather than scheduling conflicts. HEROIC Academy, operating as the academy affiliate of the established HEROIC organisation, typically maintains reliable participation in official circuit events. RUSTEC's involvement in CCT infrastructure suggests institutional backing sufficient for scheduled appearances, though regional qualifier participation carries marginally higher variance than franchise-tier competition.

Traders monitoring this market should track official CCT Europe announcements regarding group stage scheduling confirmations, which typically arrive 48–72 hours before match windows. Roster availability updates from either organisation—particularly injury or visa-related complications—warrant immediate position review given the compressed settlement window. Conditional order logic should account for the seven-day delay clause: matches beginning but remaining incomplete after day seven resolve 50-50 regardless of interim score, creating distinct settlement scenarios from standard esports fixtures. Real-time match status feeds from HLTV or ESL Play provide programmatic verification of match commencement and completion status.

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

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.
