This event group covers a best-of-three Valorant match between Alliance Guardians and QoR in VCL North America Stage 2 Group Stage, scheduled for April 13, 2026 at 7:00 PM EDT. Markets span match winner, games total, map handicap, and individual map outcomes across Kalshi and Polymarket platforms.
Match winner resolution diverges on forfeit/walkover treatment. Kalshi's binary Yes/No structure does not explicitly address pre-match forfeits, while Polymarket resolves them to 50-50. Games Total and Map Handicap markets on Polymarket count forfeited maps toward totals; Kalshi provides no guidance.
Hero Tip:
Assume Polymarket's stricter rules: pre-match forfeits resolve 50-50 on match winner; forfeited maps count toward Games Total and Map Handicap only if the match is completed. Monitor vlr.gg for official results within 2 hours of match conclusion on both platforms.
Critical Divergence Points:
Kalshi:
Binary Yes/No structure: resolves Yes if either team wins. No explicit handling of forfeits, walkovers, or incomplete matches. Relies on implicit assumption that a winner will be determined.
Polymarket:
Explicit multi-outcome logic: Match winner resolves to team name if they win; 50-50 if pre-match forfeit/walkover/cancellation/tie/7-day delay. Games Total and Map Handicap count forfeited maps only if match is completed; incomplete matches with forfeit resolve 50-50. Map-specific markets resolve 50-50 if map not completed.
