How this market resolves

This market refers to the Valorant match between Barça eSports GC and GIANTX GC in the VCT Game Changers EMEA Play-In, initially scheduled for August 10 at 1:00PM ET. This market is decided solely by the round score of Map 2 of this match, and is independent of which team wins Map 2 or the overall match. This market will resolve to "Barça eSports GC" if Barça eSports GC wins Map 2 by 3 or more rounds, including any overtime (i.e. Barça eSports GC's round total on Map 2 exceeds GIANTX GC's by 3 or more). Otherwise, this market will resolve to "GIANTX GC". Map 2 must be played to completion, with a final round score determined by rounds actually played, for this market to resolve to a team. If Map 2 is completed in this way, the market resolves on that round score regardless of how the remainder of the match concludes (including any later forfeit, disqualification, walkover, or default). If Map 2 is not played at all, is not played to completion, or is decided by forfeit, disqualification, walkover, or default rather than by rounds played to a conclusion, this market will resolve 50-50. If the match is canceled, or is delayed beyond 7 days from the scheduled date without Map 2 being completed, this market will resolve 50-50. The resolution source for this market will be official information from https://vlr.gg. However, if https://vlr.gg 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.
