Has there ever been a tourney where there was not a single upset at all? The favorites won every game

I think geng vs sen final in itself was kind of an upset bcz majority had geng winning it

gen.g were not even considred to be top 4 coming into the event.
look at the betting odds here for instance.

also sen weren't clear favourites
Suiiiiiii [#12]I think geng vs sen final in itself was kind of an upset bcz majority had geng winning it
yeah probably but in my opinion it was top 1 vs top 2 and it was a close 3-2 so it wasnt THAT much of a upset
cohnr [#5]copenhagen is probably the closest to no upset?

thats cap most had them at LEAST top 2-3
red123 [#17]thats cap most had them at LEAST top 2-3
this just isnt true.
Look at the betting odds as this gives an indication of what team people think is most favoured and from this you can easily tell that they were not considered at least top 2-3

well then the odds were kinda free because everyone who watched APAC knew gen g was AT least top 2 lmao
red123 [#17]thats cap most had them at LEAST top 2-3
nah everyone had KC top 2, geng were rated lower than that
red123 [#19]well then the odds were kinda free because everyone who watched APAC knew gen g was AT least top 2 lmao
You say this in hindsight when you can only truly tell how these. teams were percieved before they achieved x thing.
KC and loud and sen were considered above gen.g, and it was 50/50 between gen.g and prx for 4th
red123 [#7]masters madrid, before the tournament Gen G and Sentinels were the favorites and they delivered
geng was considered one of the worst teams in apac pre kickoff and that narrative didn't change as much coming into masters

my top 4 was literally sen gen g kc prx, if you had loud anywhere close you dont deserve to watch valorant anymore lol
hellfire [#9]??????? navi was alr washed
yes but everyone at that time everyone thought china was god awful and would never win a game internationally.

if u didnt have loud top 4 coming into the event then you are braindead.
Also u don't reflect the populist opinion which is the opinion that decides who the favourites are.
Astar [#15]PRX tokyo existed tho
prx run, drx fall off, navi fall off, loud bomb out, tokyo wrong example fsr
