Link destroys Mega Man and all but claims favorite status |
✓ |
|
|
|
|
1 |
|
Link demolished Mega Man and effectively ended any remaining uncertainty about the contest favorite. The writeup attributes part of the rout to SFF but argues that Link's broader rise in strength was the more important story.
SFF: The writeup explicitly says there was a definite degree of SFF in Link's overwhelming win over Mega Man, though it argues Link's own rise mattered even more.

Mega Man SFFs Yoshi and enters the Sonic match favored |
✓ |
|
|
|

|
Mega Man easily dispatched Yoshi and ended the divisional round. The writeup attributes Yoshi's underperformance partly to SFF and uses that result to swing the coming Sonic-Mega Man debate toward Mega Man.
SFF: The writeup explicitly says Mega Man likely SFFed Yoshi because voters associate Mega Man strongly with Nintendo-era games.

Samus survives Mega Man in a Nintendo-heavy semifinal |
✓ |
|
|
|
|
1 |
|
Mega Man briefly led and genuinely threatened Samus, but Samus eventually took control and won the semifinal. Red remained competitive enough to finish a strong contest run despite the Nintendo-heavy field.
SFF: The writeup explicitly attributes the result to Mega Man's heavy Nintendo-adjacent overlap in a match with Samus and Red.

Mega Man wins as the Pokémon pair suppress each other |
✓ |
|
|
|
|
1 |
|
Mega Man won the bonus as Mewtwo and Pikachu split Pokémon support. Mewtwo nevertheless beat Pikachu in their internal comparison, adding another wrinkle to the series hierarchy.
SFF: The writeup says the two Pokémon entrants heavily suppressed each other, allowing Mega Man to win the bonus match comfortably.

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.
