This market will resolve according to which teams qualify for the Playoffs of IEM Cologne 2026, scheduled to take place from June 2 to June 21, 2026. Ties in standings will be broken according to the official ESL rules. If the IEM Cologne 2026 is canceled, postponed, or if the official list of IEM Cologne 2026 Playoffs participants is not published before June 30, 2026, 11:59 PM ET, this market will resolve to "No." The primary resolution source will be official information from the ESL website (https://pro.eslgaming.com/). However, a consensus of credible reporting (e.g., Liquipedia at https://liquipedia.net/counterstrike/Intel_Extreme_Masters/2026/Cologne) may also be used.
