Counter-Strike: Phantom Academy vs Misa Esports (BO3) - CCT Europe Challengers Series Playoffs
Price history
Solid line: market price (fact). Dashed amber: our fair-value estimate.
Thesis
Why the estimate deviates from the market
- 1.Order book shows ask-side pressure (-52.2% imbalance within 5% of mid) on $4,783 of depth. [book_imbalance v1.0.0, weight 0.32]
Counter-thesis
Why this may be wrong
- 1.Model confidence is 0.32; the estimate is shrunk heavily toward the market price and should be treated as weak.
- 2.Only $2,386 of depth within 5% of mid; size is limited and slippage will reduce realised edge.
Key catalysts
- 1.Resolution in 0.4 days; price convergence typically accelerates near expiry.
What would invalidate this
- 1.Market price moving to 54% would close the gap.
- 2.A reversal in the order-book imbalance or trade-flow direction that drove this estimate.
- 3.Liquidity falling materially below $4,783 would make the edge uncapturable regardless of accuracy.

This market refers to the Counter-Strike Upper Bracket Quarterfinal 3 match between Phantom Academy and Misa Esports in the CCT Europe Challengers Series Playoffs, initially scheduled for September 8, 2026 at 9:45 AM ET. This market will resolve to " Phantom Academy" if Phantom Academy win the match against Misa Esports. This market will resolve to "Misa Esports" if Misa Esports win the match against Phantom Academy. 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 22, 2026 at 11:59 PM ET (14 calendar days after the originally scheduled start of September 8, 2026 at 9:45 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://hltv.org. However, if https://hltv.org 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.
