great victory but not really an upset unfortunately since 100t lost to kru already during stage 2
but sure that last map comeback definitely was hype

kru got destroyed by lev badly before that game so i’d say it’s definitely an upset

crazy to think if the MIBR upset never happened, eg wouldn’t have made it to tokyo, and maybe not even champs

eg wouldn’t have made champs through lcq if mibr didn’t beat 100t imo, the amount of reps they had at tokyo was very important, being able to carry that momentum to champs definitely benefited them

EG and EDG vs LOUD at tokyo 2023
KC vs FNC at kickoff
FPX vs FUT at shanghai maybe even though I don't really rate matches that didn't end up meaning anything

Also not a upset per say but
ACE vs Keyd stars. The 7-0 lead given to ACE for that glitch abuse was a diabolical ruling.

EG vs NRG, EG vs C9, and EG vs LOUD were all HUGE upsets. actually every single EG game at tokyo up until the liquid game were upsets.
