Half-Life 2 dominates its Valve sibling |
✓ |
|
|
|
|
1 |
|
Half-Life 2 looked extremely strong in an intrafranÂchise matchup and became the clear favorite to emerge from the Northeast's lower half. The writeup also uses the result to fuel speculation about a later Metroid Prime comparison.
SFF: The writeup explicitly frames Half-Life 2 versus Left 4 Dead 2 as an SFF match, with the stronger Valve title suppressing the weaker one.

N64 SFF makes Perfect Dark-Conker hard to read |
✓ |
|
|
|
|
1 |
|
Perfect Dark advanced through a matchup the writeup considered almost useless for strength analysis because of the N64 overlap. The commentary finds the presentation more memorable than the competitive result.
SFF: The writeup explicitly calls Perfect Dark versus Conker an N64 SFF match, with the stronger shared-console title suppressing the weaker one.

Chrono Cross restores order in an SFF-tinged 8/9 match |
✓ |
|
|
|
|
1 |
|
Chrono Cross delivered one of the rare first-round 8/9 results that behaved roughly as expected. The writeup mostly celebrates the absence of another bracket disaster after a long run of chaotic 8/9 matches.
SFF: The writeup explicitly calls Chrono Cross versus Dragon Quest VIII a JRPG SFF match, with the stronger shared-audience title suppressing the weaker one.

Final Fantasy X cruises through a mild Square SFF match |
✓ |
|
|
|
|
1 |
|
The same-series divisional final was never presented as a serious rivalry, and Final Fantasy IX was simply outclassed by Final Fantasy X. The writeup mostly uses the match to criticize how easy the division had been for FFX.
SFF: The writeup treats this as a Square SFF matchup, noting that Final Fantasy IX was suppressed by Final Fantasy X even if the effect was milder than some older Square pairings.

Brawl suppresses Twilight Princess and strengthens its title case |
✓ |
|
|
|
|
1 |
|
Twilight Princess briefly led before Brawl took over and won comfortably. The result made Brawl look increasingly difficult to stop and strengthened the belief that it was the contest favorite.
SFF: The writeup says Brawl versus Twilight Princess can be considered SFF because of their shared Nintendo/Wii audience, with Brawl suppressing Zelda's support.

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.
