This market centers on the outcome of the Weibo Gaming versus Top Esports match in the

LPL Group Ascend stage of the 2026 LPL Split 2 season, scheduled for May 2, 2026. The

Group Ascend format represents a pivotal phase of the LPL postseason pathway, where results

directly determine which teams secure preferential bracket placement for the playoffs —

making each series within this stage a consequential test of a team's readiness to compete

at the highest level of Chinese professional League of Legends. Traders are weighing both

organisations' recent form, draft versatility, individual carry performance, and

head-to-head dynamics to determine which team is more likely to secure the series win

on the day.

1. Market Outcomes and Resolution Criteria: This market resolves to "WBG" if

Weibo Gaming is officially recorded as the winner of this scheduled LPL match,

and the match is completed before the market end date. It resolves to "TES"

if Top Esports is officially recorded as the winner under the same conditions.

It resolves to "Tie" if this match is canceled, postponed beyond the **market

end date**, concluded without an officially declared winner, or if no official winner

is recorded by the market end date; in the event of a Tie resolution, all

positions settle at $0.50 per share.

2. Definition of Official Winner: "Officially recorded as the winner" means the team

listed as the winner in the official League of Legends Pro League match results

published by Riot Games or its authorized regional operator for this match,

determined through completion of all scheduled games according to **official tournament

rules**. The series follows a best-of-3 (BO3) format; the first team to win

2 games is the official series winner.

3. Official Sources and Evidence: The primary source for resolution is the official

match results and standings published by Riot Games via https://lolesports.com

and the official LPL website (**https://lpl.qq.com\*\*). Secondary reporting sources —

including Liquipedia League of Legends and gol.gg — may be used only for

confirmation of timing and result details and cannot override clear or later-dated

official publications.

4. Resolution Timing: The market ends at the market end date and will normally be

resolved as soon as reasonably practical after the official result is published, or once

it becomes clear that no qualifying result will be recorded before the market end date.

5. Handling Postponements, Cancellations, and Non-Winner Outcomes: If this match is

postponed but completed before the market end date, that result determines the

outcome. If this match is completed after the market end date, canceled, or no

official winner is declared by the market end date, the market resolves to "Tie."

Technical pauses and within-day remakes follow the official LPL ruling; multi-day

remakes are treated as postponements. Forfeit or default victories resolve per the

official LPL statement.

6. Ambiguities and Disputes: If conflicting information exists regarding the result of

this match, the most recent official publication from Riot Games or its

authorized LPL operator takes precedence. In any remaining ambiguous case not

explicitly covered above, the resolver will rely on official records for this

specific match to determine the outcome.
