How this market resolves

This market refers to the Valorant Upper bracket quarterfinal 2 match between FOKUS Sakura and Gentle Mates GC in the VCT Game Changers EMEA Playoffs, initially scheduled for August 13 at 2:00PM ET. This market will resolve to "Gentle Mates GC" if Gentle Mates GC wins 2 or more maps than FOKUS Sakura in this match. Otherwise, this market will resolve to "FOKUS Sakura".
