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.
Iberian Soul enters the BO3 round-of-16 matchup with a modest ranking edge (#47 HLTV) over Nemiga (#63) and a 2-0 head-to-head win from the August 2025 StarLadder Europe Closed Qualifier on Inferno and Ancient. The Spanish side, featuring IGL alex alongside mopoz, dav1g, and sausol under coach djL, carries recent Tier-2 experience including a 2-1 upset over fnatic last year, though form has cooled with a 1-2 loss to 9INE on September 2. Nemiga, a Belarusian roster known for aggressive entries and strong individual showings from players like khaN and riskyb0b, arrives with fresh momentum after a 2-1 victory over BIG in the IEM Beijing qualifier and consistent qualifier results. Both squads face an online single-elimination format where map-pool familiarity and recent momentum shifts will shape implied probabilities in this closed qualifier for the October LAN event.
