EWC 2026: Longest Game Duration

Resolution Criteria

This market will resolve based on the in-game duration of the single longest game (map) played across the 2026 Esports World Cup (EWC) Dota 2 tournament, held July 7–19, 2026 in Paris, France. "Duration" means the in-game duration of a single game as recorded by the resolution source — measured by the in-game clock from game start to the game's conclusion (the destruction of the losing team's Ancient or a called game). It does not include the draft/pick-ban phase or paused time, consistent with how Dota 2 records game length. Each game's duration is rounded down to the last fully completed minute for bucketing (e.g., a game lasting 85 minutes and 42 seconds counts as 85 minutes and falls in the "80–85" bracket; a game lasting 90 minutes and 5 seconds counts as 90 and falls in the "86–90" bracket). Only completed official games count (group stage, survival/gauntlet stage, and playoffs). A game that is remade or not completed does not count. The market resolves to the single bracket containing the duration of the longest qualifying game in the tournament. If the tournament is cancelled, postponed past August 2, 2026, 11:59 PM ET, or the results are not determined within that timeframe, this market will resolve to "Other." The primary resolution source for this market will be Dotabuff (https://www.dotabuff.com). A consensus of credible reporting may also be used.
