is there a definitive biggest upset in tier 1 history? (can be pre-franchising too)
like a single series, not a run

my mind immediately goes to blg vs nrg for obvious reasons
but surely there's been a bigger upset...
This is the real upset. I keep getting 2/3 can someone hug me? 🥺

definitely not as big of an upset, trace had already beat vitality at that point so people knew they were decent unlike blg and nrg
honestly id say both the semifinals games EMEA 2024 kickoff. I dont think a single person was expecting TH or KC to win either of those games
BLG NRG is the only acceptable answer, BLG were literally unknown teams and NRG were one of the favourites
BLG rapid lofi i'd argue was even worse but it wasn't on a stage as big as champs so
the greatest upset in all of valorant https://www.vlr.gg/296609/supernova-galaxy-vs-infinity-x-game-changers-2024-series-1-north-america-ro16
maybe a hot take, but EDG´s run in champs last year was one big upset, considering their performanca at Madrid and Shangai
