Counter-Strike: Gentle Mates vs ASTRAL (BO3) - LORGAR RANKINGS Playoffs

Unified Resolution Criteria (Consistent across platforms)

Core resolution logic:

• Match winner (series): resolves to the team winning 2 maps in the best-of-3 format.
• Map winner (Map 1, Map 2, Map 3): resolves to the team winning that individual map, only if the map is played to completion.
• Series length (O/U 2.5): resolves to Over if 3 or more maps are played; Under if fewer than 3 maps are played. Maps won by forfeit, disqualification, or walkover count if the match is completed.
• Map handicap (-1.5/+1.5): resolves to Gentle Mates if they win 2 or more maps than ASTRAL; otherwise resolves to ASTRAL. Forfeited/disqualified/walkover maps count if match is completed.
• Odd/Even kills and rounds (Map 1, 2, 3): resolve based on total combined kills or rounds in that map, including overtime. Resolve to 50-50 if the map is not played, not completed, or the series is already clinched before that map is needed.
• Cancellation, tie, or delay beyond 7 days without play: all markets resolve to 50-50.
• Forfeit, disqualification, or walkover before match start: all markets resolve to 50-50.
• Forfeit, disqualification, or walkover mid-series after play has begun: the advancing team is credited with the win; series continues or concludes based on map count.

Edge cases & Clarifications:

• Incomplete series with mid-series forfeit: If a team forfeits, is disqualified, or walks over after play has begun (e.g., after Map 1 is completed), the advancing team is credited with that map win and the series continues or concludes based on the map count at that point. Match winner and series-level markets resolve to the advancing team; map-specific markets for completed maps resolve based on actual results; unplayed maps resolve to 50-50.
• Map not played due to series clinch: If a team clinches the series before Map 3 is needed (e.g., 2-0 after Map 2), Map 3 markets (winner, odd/even kills, odd/even rounds) all resolve to 50-50.
• Remade map: If a map is remade for any reason, resolution is based on the remade game only; the original result is disregarded.
• Team name discrepancies: Minor spelling variations, sponsor tags, academy designations, or formatting differences are treated as referring to the same team if the intended team can be clearly and uniquely identified within the competition. If no reasonable connection exists or ambiguity cannot be resolved, markets resolve to 50-50.
• Odd/even with zero kills or rounds: If no kills are recorded in a map, or if a map is never played, odd/even kill markets resolve to 50-50. Odd/even round markets resolve to 50-50 if the map is not played or not completed.
