Team Liquid enters the BO3 playoff matchup at The International 2026 against Team Yandex with the benefit of a recent 2-1 group-stage victory over the same opponent in Shanghai. Liquid's veteran roster brings deep experience in high-stakes Dota 2 events, strong map pool flexibility, and proven execution under pressure. Yandex, a CIS-based squad that rose quickly since 2025, counters with an aggressive style, standout carry performances from watson, and recent momentum after eliminating LGD to reach the main event. Head-to-head history favors Yandex in longer series, while recent form, draft comfort on the current patch, and adaptation to Shanghai conditions will likely decide which side advances.

This market will resolve to "Team Liquid" if Team Liquid win the match against Team Yandex.
This market will resolve to "Team Yandex" if Team Yandex win the match against Team Liquid.
If the match is canceled (not played at all) or ends in a tie, this market will resolve to 50-50.
If the match is postponed, it must be rescheduled to a start time on or before September 3, 2026 at 11:59 PM ET (14 calendar days after the originally scheduled start of August 20, 2026 at 4:00 AM ET). If, by that deadline, the most recently announced rescheduled start time is on or before the deadline, this market resolves based on the result of the match as played. Otherwise, this market resolves 50-50, regardless of whether the match is subsequently played.
If the match begins but is not completed, and one team wins due to the opponent's forfeiture, disqualification, or walkover, this market will resolve to the team who wins.
If the match ends in a forfeit, disqualification, or walkover (team withdraws before the start and the other wins automatically), this market will resolve to 50-50.
The resolution source for this market will be official information from https://www.dotabuff.com. However, if https://www.dotabuff.com has not published final results within 2 hours after the event’s conclusion, a consensus of credible reporting may be used instead including video evidence.
In cases where a team’s listed name includes minor discrepancies from the resolution source, this market will resolve based on the underlying real-world match rather than exact name matching. Recognizable abbreviations, alternate or erroneous spellings, sponsor tags, affiliate or academy designations, regional identifiers, and minor formatting differences will be treated as referring to the same team, provided the intended team can be clearly and uniquely identified within the relevant competition. If a listed team name has no reasonable connection to any participating team, or if it matches or could reasonably refer to another team in the same competition such that the intended team cannot be unambiguously determined, this market will resolve 50-50.
