BGE 2K15 Round 3 Division III Rally spillover amplifies Pokémon's already dominant Sonic rout 1

Pokémon RBY was already routing Sonic 2 before Undertale rally spillover pushed the result even higher. The underlying blowout made Pokémon look like a true title contender even after separating out the outside traffic.

Rally: The writeup says Undertale's simultaneous rally traffic spilled into the Pokémon poll and further boosted Pokémon RBY beyond an already dominant natural performance.

Undertale rallies past Super Mario World and survives controversy 1

Super Mario World built the expected early advantage, but Undertale's rally started earlier than in prior rounds and eventually overwhelmed it. The match also produced a major cheating scare that the writeup says was unsupported.

Rally: The writeup says Undertale's expanding social-media rallies steadily erased Super Mario World's lead and eventually carried Undertale comfortably ahead. Cheating accusations are explicitly rejected by the administrator.

BGE 2K15 Round 3 Division IV Skyrim overcomes a spillover-boosted Metroid Prime lead 1

Metroid Prime built a large early lead, then Skyrim used its stronger morning and daytime trends to erase it and win. The writeup treats Prime's familiar trend collapse as the decisive factor after an opening aided partly by rally spillover.

Rally: The writeup says Undertale rally spillover helped Metroid Prime's unusually strong opening and boosted turnout, although Prime's normal early strength also contributed.

BGE 2K15 Round 3 Division IV Mario 64 overcomes Zelda's rally and picture advantages 2

Twilight Princess looked unusually competitive at the start, but Mario 64 recovered and settled into a comfortable win. The writeup attributes much of Zelda's early strength to rally spillover and the lopsided match pictures.

Rally · Pic: The writeup says Twilight Princess benefited early from Undertale rally spillover and from a major picture imbalance: Mario 64 received a poor image while Twilight Princess received an especially strong Link image.

What this is

Each row's Headline and (on filter) narrative come from a ChatGPT reading of that match's Board 8 wiki writeup. The five flags (SFF same-fanbase factor, LFF low-fanbase factor, Rally outside rally, Cheat cheating alleged, Pic match-picture factor) are set only when the writeup asserts that effect — never inferred from the numbers. Hover a check for the note. †OT marks a writeup that mostly wanders off the match.
