CS2 EWC 2026: Will an Open Qualifier Team Finish Top 8 at EWC?

Resolution Criteria

This market will resolve to "Yes" if at least one of the four teams that qualified for the Counter-Strike 2 tournament at the 2026 Esports World Cup (EWC 2026) via the Open Qualifier — BIG, 100 Thieves, JiJieHao, and K27 — achieves a final placement of 8th or better. Otherwise, this market will resolve to "No." For the purposes of this market, a final placement of 8th or better means reaching the quarterfinals of the playoff bracket, inclusive of teams sharing a 5th–8th placement. This market will resolve once the quarterfinal round is complete and all top-eight placements are officially determined. If this tournament is postponed after September 6, 2026, 11:59 PM ET, canceled, or top-eight placements have not been determined within this timeframe, this market will resolve to "No." The resolution source for this market will be official information from the tournament organizer, the Esports World Cup; however, a consensus of credible reporting may also be used.
