**Mirage's inclusion in every playoff series at BLAST Open Porto 2026 faces significant structural barriers.** The event's seven-map pool (Cache, Dust2, Mirage, Inferno, Nuke, Ancient, Anubis) combined with standard CS2 veto procedures—where teams alternate bans and picks before a decider—allows opponents to remove Mirage if it falls outside their preferred rotations or recent form. With playoffs featuring multiple single-elimination BO3s (quarters and semis) plus a later-stage final, the probability of one map surviving every veto sequence drops sharply as team preferences, map-specific win rates, and stylistic matchups vary across the bracket. Recent pool adjustments returning Cache have further diversified options without elevating Mirage to mandatory status, and no team announcements or meta shifts indicate widespread adoption that would override veto dynamics. Traders price the "No" outcome heavily because historical series data shows even popular maps rarely appear universally across an entire playoff bracket.

This market will resolve to "Yes" if the map Mirage is played in every playoff series of BLAST Open Porto 2026, scheduled for August 26 – September 6, 2026. Otherwise, this market will resolve to "No".
For purposes of this market, "playoff series" refers to all best-of matches in the playoff stage of the tournament, scheduled to be held at the Super Bock Arena – Pavilhão Rosa Mota in Porto from September 4-6, and excludes all group stage matches, qualifiers, and any other non-playoff matches. A "game" refers to a single map played within a series.

Mirage will be considered "played" in a series if at least one game on Mirage begins in that series, regardless of whether Mirage was picked by a team or was the remaining decider map. Games on Mirage that begin but are not completed (e.g., due to forfeit, technical failure, or admin decision) will still count as Mirage having been played, provided at least one round was completed on the map.
If a playoff series ends without Mirage being played — including series that end early due to forfeit or walkover before Mirage could be played — this market will resolve to "No".
If Mirage is removed from the tournament's active map pool before or during the playoffs, this market will resolve to "No" unless Mirage was played in every playoff series that had already been completed and no further playoff series occur.
If the tournament is cancelled before the playoff stage begins, this market will resolve to "No". If the tournament is cancelled during the playoffs, this market will resolve to "Yes" only if Mirage was played in every playoff series completed prior to cancellation; otherwise it will resolve to "No".
