Division VI |

A Link to the Past delivers another Zelda godstomp |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
A Link to the Past delivered the second-largest blowout of the contest against Cave Story and looked like a genuine top-tier game. The writeup places the result alongside Ocarina's as a championship-caliber Zelda statement.

Link to the Past wins but fuels Zelda-fatigue concerns |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
A Link to the Past beat Final Fantasy IV easily, but the writeup still considered the performance too ordinary for a championship favorite. The result joins Ocarina's showing as evidence of growing Zelda fatigue.

Link to the Past crushes Dark Souls without Zelda fatigue |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
A Link to the Past crushed Dark Souls and looked largely immune to the Zelda fatigue affecting other entries in the series. The writeup treats the dominant result as evidence that LTTP remained a genuine elite game.

Majora's Mask rode spillover and presentation advantages to a large early lead, but A Link to the Past slowly erased it and won with the morning vote. The match became a clear demonstration of how quickly rally spillover could fade.
Rally · Pic: The writeup says rally spillover from the previous Undertale-Pokémon match strongly favored Majora's Mask early. It also says Majora had a clear picture advantage over A Link to the Past.

Quarterfinal |

Ocarina beats Link to the Past without the expected SFF |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Ocarina of Time beat A Link to the Past, but failed to produce the devastating same-series suppression many expected from their old four-way comparison. Both analyses conclude that little or no meaningful SFF was visible in the current match.

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.
