LoL: BNK FEARX vs T1 (BO3) - LCK Rounds 1-2

Active sub-markets

Market context

BNK FEARX face T1 in a League of Legends Champions Korea best-of-three match scheduled for 30 May at 06:00 ET. The conditional token pricing on Polygon currently reflects zero probability of a BNK FEARX victory, with the USDC settlement flowing entirely toward T1 outcomes. This pricing suggests the market views the matchup as a near-certain T1 win, though the 0% quote likely reflects illiquidity rather than absolute certainty—typical for lower-volume esports contracts where even modest YES positions can shift the curve meaningfully.

T1 remain the LCK's dominant franchise, having won the 2023 World Championship and consistently fielding rosters built around elite mid and bot lane talent. BNK FEARX, by contrast, operate as a mid-tier LCK squad without recent titles or sustained playoff depth. Historical precedent suggests T1 convert favourable matchups at high rates; across 2024 LCK regular season play, T1 maintained a winning record against teams outside the top three. BNK FEARX's last significant upset came against lower-seeded opponents, not established powerhouses.

Traders should monitor LCK scheduling announcements through the official League of Legends esports site, as the settlement window closes 30 May at 16:15 UTC—leaving a ten-hour buffer for match completion. Any roster changes, player illness, or technical delays announced before the scheduled start time could shift conditional token valuations. The match format (BO3) means even a T1 victory requires at least two games, creating minor execution risk that occasionally surfaces in esports markets when favourites drop early maps before closing series.

Methodology

Methodologically we separate two layers: the live probability (Polymarket mid-price) and the platform attributes (fee, KYC, settlement currency, payment rails). The odds column is filled only where we have clean data — that avoids the made-up numbers that get a network demoted when search engines cross-check against the source venue.

Resolution & payout

Polymarket-based markets settle through the UMA Optimistic Oracle on Polygon. A proposer submits the outcome, a two-hour challenge window opens, and unchallenged proposals finalise the resolution. Payouts settle automatically in USDC the moment the result is final — no bookmaker, no delay.

Kalshi-based markets settle in USD via the CFTC-regulated clearinghouse. Betfair Exchange settles in GBP/EUR net of commission. Manifold is play-money and does not pay out real funds.

FAQ

What's the difference between YES and NO shares?

A YES share pays $1.00 if the event happens, $0 otherwise. A NO share pays $1.00 if the event doesn't happen. The market price between 0¢ and 100¢ is the implied probability.

What does it cost to trade on Polymarket Scam??

Zero. Polymarket Scam? routes every order to the live Polymarket order book; the only cost is the Polygon network fee, typically under $0.01 per transaction.

How fast are USDC deposits?

Polygon credits deposits after 12 confirmations — usually under 30 seconds. Withdrawals follow the same path and land back in your wallet within minutes.

Do I need to KYC for this market?

Not under $1,500 of lifetime trading volume. Above that threshold, Polymarket Scam? triggers a quick verification flow that finishes in minutes.

How reliable are the quoted odds?

The YES/NO percentages are the live mid-prices of the Polymarket order book. On deep markets they move every few seconds; on thinner ones you'll see short plateaus.
