Counter-Strike: STATE vs Hashiras (BO3) - CCT Europe Series #18 Group Stage

Unified Resolution Criteria (Consistent across platforms)

Core resolution logic:

• Match is a Best-of-3 series; winner is first team to win 2 maps
• Match winner resolves to the team that wins the series; if match is canceled, ends in tie, or delayed beyond 7 days without completion, resolves 50-50
• If match begins but is incomplete and one team wins by opponent forfeiture/disqualification/walkover, the non-forfeiting team wins; if forfeiture occurs before play begins, resolves 50-50
• Individual map winners resolve based on completed maps; incomplete maps resolve 50-50
• Maps won by forfeit, disqualification, or walkover count toward map totals and handicaps only if the match is completed
• Map Handicap Hashiras (-1.5) resolves to Hashiras if Hashiras wins 2+ more maps than STATE; otherwise STATE
• Map Handicap STATE (-1.5) resolves to STATE if STATE wins 2+ more maps than Hashiras; otherwise Hashiras
• Games Total Over/Under 2.5 resolves Over if 3+ maps are played, Under if fewer than 3 maps are played
• Kalshi's Over 2.5 maps market aligns: Yes if 3+ maps played, No if fewer than 3

Edge cases & Clarifications:

• Forfeiture before play begins: If a team forfeits, is disqualified, or walks away before the match starts, the market resolves 50-50 (not a valid win)
• Forfeiture after play begins: If a team forfeits after at least one map has begun, the non-forfeiting team is credited with the win; maps completed before forfeiture count toward totals and handicaps
• Incomplete individual map: If a map is not completed for any reason, that map's market resolves 50-50; however, if the map is completed and the series is abandoned, the completed map still resolves based on its winner
• Delay beyond 7 days: If the match is delayed more than 7 days from the scheduled March 9 date without a winner determined, all markets resolve 50-50
• Clinching map forfeited: If the match-clinching map (e.g., Map 3 in a 1-1 series) is forfeited, the match is considered completed and the non-forfeiting team wins; this counts toward handicap and total map calculations
