Description

During competitive gaming tournaments, players often discuss and prepare strategies against various characters or 'heroes.' Certain heroes may become widely avoided by opponents due to their challenging mechanics or powerful abilities, making them frequently banned from play. Tracking which hero is banned most often provides insight into strategic trends and player preferences for the competition.

Kalshi

Each market resolves to Yes only if the specified hero is the most banned hero at The International 2026. If multiple heroes tie for the highest number of bans, all tied heroes will resolve as a dead heat, with "Yes" Contracts for each tied hero sharing the total payout equally. For example, in a two-way tie, each "Yes" Contract pays $0.50, and in a three-way tie, each pays approximately $0.33. No contracts will pay the full $1 amount unless there is a single, unambiguous most banned hero.
