LoL: PCIFIC vs Forsaken (BO3) - EMEA Masters Group B

Platform comparison

Active sub-markets

Market context

PCIFIC and Forsaken are scheduled to contest a League of Legends best-of-three match within EMEA Masters Group B on 10 June at 2:00 PM ET. The Polymarket contract currently trades at 100% implied probability for PCIFIC victory, pricing the match as a near-certainty outcome. This extreme skew reflects either substantial pre-match intelligence regarding team composition, recent form, or roster changes—or signals that liquidity constraints have compressed the probability distribution toward one side. On-chain settlement will occur via USDC on Polygon, with conditional tokens minting upon resolution once the match concludes and official results are published by the tournament operator.

Historical precedent in EMEA Masters suggests that 100% probabilities rarely hold through to match day. Upsets and forfeits have occurred in regional qualifying tournaments, particularly when teams face scheduling conflicts or roster availability issues. The 50-50 tiebreaker clause—triggered if the match is cancelled, delayed beyond seven days, or abandoned mid-series—introduces operational risk that traders should weigh against the current pricing.

Key catalysts include official roster announcements from both organisations in the days preceding the match, any schedule adjustments from the tournament organiser, and confirmation of player availability. Traders should monitor EMEA Masters' official communications channels and team social media for withdrawal notices or format changes. The settlement window closes at 22:55 UTC on 10 June, allowing roughly 21 hours post-scheduled start time for results confirmation before the contract resolves.

Methodology

We track LoL: PCIFIC vs Forsaken (BO3) - EMEA Masters Group B on the five venues with material liquidity for prediction markets. Live odds come from the Polymarket Polygon order book — the only source that ships real-time data under an open licence. For Kalshi, Betfair and Manifold we list platform attributes (fee, KYC, settlement, payment) instead of fabricated odds, because their APIs use non-comparable contract definitions.

Resolution & payout

Settlement runs on-chain. Polymarket's contract logic separates YES and NO shares as conditional tokens; at resolution the winning share lifts to $1.00 and the losing one to $0. The outcome input comes from the UMA Optimistic Oracle, which secures against bad resolution with a bond + dispute window.

Once finalised, the smart contract pays USDC to the holders' wallets within minutes — no withdrawal fees beyond Polygon network gas. Kalshi settles in USD via CFTC clearance, Betfair in account currency net of commission, Manifold in play-money mana with no cash-out.
