Breath of the Wild routs Majora's Mask in the bonus |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Breath of the Wild crushed Majora's Mask in the post-contest bonus between the winners of two Game of the Decade contests. The writeup is split on whether the same-series matchup involved meaningful SFF, so the cause is left unresolved rather than tagged.

Breath of the Wild wins despite a heavy Witcher rally |
|
|
✓ |
|
|
1 |
|
Breath of the Wild completed its dominant championship run, but Witcher 3's rally made the final substantially more respectable than the opening suggested. The writeup treats Witcher as the contest's breakout star even in defeat.
Rally: The writeup says Witcher 3 fans rallied heavily throughout the final and materially cut Breath of the Wild's natural margin, even though the rally never put the winner in danger.

|
|
|
1 |
|
Breath of the Wild demolished Smash Ultimate in a semifinal and continued its run of overwhelming late-round victories. Even accounting for heavy Nintendo SFF, the writeup treats the performance as extraordinary.
SFF: The writeup explicitly calls Breath of the Wild versus Smash Ultimate a bad case of SFF, with Zelda's place atop the Nintendo hierarchy suppressing Smash.

|
|
|

Breath of the Wild doubled Mass Effect 2 in the quarterfinals and maintained one of the most dominant game-contest runs ever. The writeup treats Dragon Quest XI's prior resistance as newly impressive in hindsight.

Breath of the Wild wins while Dragon Quest earns respect |
|
|

|
Breath of the Wild obliterates Final Fantasy XV |
|
|
|
|

Breath of the Wild looks completely untouchable |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Breath of the Wild demolished Halo: Reach and joined the rare group of games producing enormous blowouts in consecutive rounds. The writeup treats the performance as confirmation that even a hypothetical late rally might not be enough to stop Zelda.

|
Breath of the Wild opens in championship form |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Breath of the Wild opened the contest with an enormous rout and immediately looked like the obvious championship favorite. The writeup frames the result as the start of a Zelda redemption tour after the prior games contest.

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.
