Bilibili Gaming beats Gen.G 3-1 to win Worlds 2026 as Kalshi settles and Polymarket’s resolution waits

Bilibili Gaming won the 2026 League of Legends World Championship on Saturday, Nov. 14, 2026, beating Gen.G three games to one in the final in Brooklyn, New York. The official LoL Esports schedule lists the final as Gen.G 1, Bilibili Gaming 3, and Riot Games’ Worlds 2026 primer set the best-of-five final for Saturday, Nov. 14, at 2 p.m. ET.

The result settles the Worlds winner markets on both Kalshi and Polymarket. Kalshi has already settled its contracts. Polymarket’s outcome has been proposed but was not final as of 7:14 p.m. ET, Nov. 14, 2026.

How the two platforms settle

Kalshi’s “Worlds 2026 Champion” event lists 20 team contracts. The Bilibili Gaming contract asks “Will Bilibili Gaming win League of Legends Worlds?” and its rules read: “If Bilibili Gaming is the 2026 League of Legends Worlds champion, then the market resolves to Yes.” The market was set to close early “after a winner is declared,” and its listed settlement sources are LoL Esports, Riot Games and Gamers World.

Trading closed at 7:06 p.m. ET. As of 7:14 p.m. ET, Nov. 14, 2026, Kalshi’s API showed the Bilibili Gaming market as finalized with a result of Yes, settled at $1 per contract at 7:11 p.m. ET. The Gen.G contract settled No at $0.

Polymarket’s “Worlds 2026: Winner” event resolves to the winner of the tournament, with official information from Riot Games via the LoL Esports website as its resolution source and “a consensus of credible reporting,” such as Liquipedia, as a fallback. If no winner were declared by Nov. 28, 2026, at 11:59 p.m. ET, the market would resolve to “Other.”

Polymarket settles through the UMA oracle. Under Polymarket’s resolution documentation, anyone can propose an outcome by posting a bond, and a two-hour challenge period follows in which anyone can dispute it; with no dispute, the proposal is accepted and the market resolves. As of 7:14 p.m. ET, Nov. 14, 2026, both the Bilibili Gaming and Gen.G markets showed a UMA status of “proposed.” Neither market was marked closed or resolved.

What the markets priced before the final

A week before the final, at 2 p.m. ET on Nov. 7, both teams still had semifinals to play. Polymarket priced Gen.G at 51.5 cents and Bilibili Gaming at 25.05 cents. On Kalshi, the hourly candles ending at 2 p.m. ET that day closed at 54 cents for Gen.G and 25 cents for Bilibili Gaming. Gen.G swept Invictus Gaming 3-0 later on Nov. 7, and Bilibili Gaming beat T1 3-1 on Nov. 8, according to the LoL Esports schedule.

A day before the final, at 2 p.m. ET on Nov. 13, Polymarket priced Gen.G at 62.5 cents and Bilibili Gaming at 37.75 cents. Kalshi’s hourly candles ending at that time closed at 62 cents for Gen.G and 38 cents for Bilibili Gaming.

The last hourly readings before the scheduled start, at 1 p.m. ET on Nov. 14, were 62.5 cents for Gen.G and 38.05 cents for Bilibili Gaming on Polymarket, and 63 cents and 38 cents on Kalshi. On both platforms, Gen.G was the higher-priced team at every one of those checkpoints.

Bilibili Gaming’s path to the title ran through a 3-0 quarterfinal win over Dplus KIA on Nov. 5 and the semifinal over T1. Gen.G reached the final with 3-0 wins over LYON on Nov. 4 and Invictus Gaming.

Volume

As of 7:14 p.m. ET, Nov. 14, 2026, Polymarket’s Worlds winner event had about $15.15 million in total volume and about $1.02 million in the previous 24 hours. The Gen.G market alone accounted for about $2.77 million in total and $721,474 in 24 hours, and the Bilibili Gaming market for about $2.05 million and $296,774.

On Kalshi, where volume is counted in contracts, the 20 team markets in the event had traded about 4.10 million contracts in total and about 204,256 in the previous 24 hours, as of the same time. The Gen.G contract traded 660,160 contracts in all and the Bilibili Gaming contract 504,239.

Polymarket also listed a separate market on the final match itself, “LoL: Bilibili Gaming vs Gen.G (BO5) – Worlds Playoffs,” with about $35.5 million in volume as of 7:11 p.m. ET. That market names gol.gg as its resolution source rather than the LoL Esports site.

Under Polymarket’s documentation, winning tokens can be redeemed for $1 each once a market resolves. A dispute of the Worlds proposal would start a new proposal round, and a second dispute would send the question to a vote of UMA token holders. The desk covered earlier settlements on both platforms, for Manchester United’s head coach markets and Argentina’s October inflation.
