Rules
  1. Market Outcomes and Resolution Criteria: The market resolves to HLE1 if Hanwha Life Esports is declared the official winner of the match; it resolves to NRF if Nongshim Red Force is declared the official winner. It resolves to Tie if the match is canceled, postponed beyond 18:00 UTC April 22, 2026, concluded without an officially declared winner, or if no official result is recorded by that deadline; in the event of a Tie resolution, all positions settle at $0.50 per share.
  2. Definition of Match Winner: The winner is the team that wins the majority of games in the scheduled series format (e.g., best-of-3), as officially declared by LCK tournament administration. Individual game wins within the series do not constitute match resolution; only the series winner counts.
  3. Official Sources and Evidence: The primary source is the official LCK website, Riot Games' official match records, and LCK broadcast results. Secondary sources such as Liquipedia, op.gg, or established esports news outlets (Dot Esports, KORIZON) may be used for corroboration only.
  4. Resolution Timing: The market is reviewed upon conclusion of the match. Once an official series winner is declared, the market resolves as soon as practically confirmed. If the match has not concluded and no winner is declared by 18:00 UTC on April 22, 2026, the market resolves to Tie.
  5. Handling Postponements and Cancellations: If the match is postponed to a date beyond April 22, 2026, or canceled entirely, the market resolves to Tie. If the match begins before the deadline but is suspended mid-series, the result stands only if LCK administration issues an official winner declaration; otherwise it resolves to Tie.
  6. Ambiguities and Disputes: In cases of conflicting results between sources, the official LCK administration ruling takes precedence over all secondary sources. If a result is later overturned due to a ruling, penalty, or administrative decision by Riot Games or LCK officials, the market resolves based on the final officially declared outcome, provided it is issued before a reasonable post-deadline window for administrative review.
