PredictionHero - Resolution Divergence Alerts (RDA)
Divergence Detected
Issue: Polymarket resolves series to 50-50 on forfeit/disqualification/walkover, while Limitless resolves to the declared winner. Limitless also includes a Draw outcome and 'Other' fallback; Polymarket has no draw path and uses 50-50 for ties/cancellations.Hero tip: Check official Esports World Cup sources for forfeit/disqualification announcements. Polymarket bettors should expect 50-50 payouts on any withdrawal; Limitless bettors will receive the declared winner's payout. For in-game stats, both platforms align on 50-50 if the game is not played. Verify match completion status on Dotabuff within 2 hours of scheduled end time.Critical divergence points:
- Polymarket: Series (BO2) resolves to LGD Gaming or OG based on match outcome. Resolves 50-50 if match is canceled, ends in a tie, delayed beyond 7 days without play, or if either team forfeits/is disqualified/walks over. Game 1 and Game 2 markets resolve based on individual game winners or 50-50 if not completed. In-game stat markets (day/night, Roshan, barracks, Ultra Kill, Rampage) resolve 50-50 if the respective game is not played or forfeited. Primary source: Dotabuff within 2 hours; fallback to credible reporting and video evidence. Key Quote: 'If the match ends in a forfeit, disqualification, or walkover (team withdraws before the start and the other wins automatically), this market will resolve to 50-50.'
- Limitless: Series offers three outcomes: LGD Gaming wins (YES), OG wins (YES), or Draw (YES). Resolves to the declared winner regardless of forfeit/disqualification/walkover. If no official result by August 8, 2026 23:59 UTC, resolves to 'Other'. No in-game stat markets listed on Limitless. Key Quote: 'If either team loses by forfeit, disqualification, or walkover for any reason, this market will resolve to the team declared the winner, regardless of whether the match has started or when the decision is made.'
Polymarket
This market refers to the Dota 2 match between LGD Gaming and OG in the Esports World Cup Group D, initially scheduled for July 8 at 12:30PM ET. This market will resolve to "LGD Gaming" if LGD Gaming win the match against OG. This market will resolve to "OG" if OG win the match against LGD Gaming. If the match is canceled (not played at all), ends in a tie, or is delayed beyond 7 days from the scheduled date without a winner determined, this market will resolve to 50-50. If the match begins but is not completed, and one team wins due to the opponent's forfeiture, disqualification, or walkover, this market will resolve to the team who wins. If the match ends in a forfeit, disqualification, or walkover (team withdraws before the start and the other wins automatically), this market will resolve to 50-50. The resolution source for this market will be official information from https://www.dotabuff.com. However, if https://www.dotabuff.com has not published final results within 2 hours after the event’s conclusion, a consensus of credible reporting may be used instead including video evidence. In cases where a team’s listed name includes minor discrepancies from the resolution source, this market will resolve based on the underlying real-world match rather than exact name matching. Recognizable abbreviations, alternate or erroneous spellings, sponsor tags, affiliate or academy designations, regional identifiers, and minor formatting differences will be treated as referring to the same team, provided the intended team can be clearly and uniquely identified within the relevant competition. If a listed team name has no reasonable connection to any participating team, or if it matches or could reasonably refer to another team in the same competition such that the intended team cannot be unambiguously determined, this market will resolve 50-50.
Limitless

If the match is not completed with an official result by August 8, 2026, 23:59 UTC, the market will resolve to "Other."
Frequently asked questions
Polymarket and Limitless can show different implied probabilities for the same outcome because of liquidity, fee structure, participant mix, and how each venue defines the contract. Each platform operates distinct order-book or AMM mechanics, liquidity pools, and user bases, causing temporary price divergence. Polymarket may attract different trader demographics or have deeper liquidity in certain outcome contracts, while Limitless pricing reflects its own market depth and fee structure. Regulatory environment, settlement verification speed, and platform-specific incentives also influence how quickly each platform incorporates new information about team form or tournament developments. These gaps typically narrow as resolution approaches but create short-term trading opportunities.
Key catalysts include roster announcements, player injuries or substitutions, recent tournament results, and meta shifts in the Dota 2 competitive landscape. Scrimmage results or public statements from team leadership can shift trader sentiment quickly. Performance at earlier Esports World Cup matches will provide direct evidence of form and coordination. Additionally, patch updates to the game itself may favor one team's draft style or hero pool over the other. Monitor official team social media and esports news outlets for breaking developments that could reprrice this market significantly.
