SC2K2 Round 3 North
Alucard 30.4%
Alucard's last stand makes Mario-Cloud uncertain again

Cloud ended Alucard's surprise run, but did not dominate as thoroughly as his earlier matches suggested he might. The writeup says that performance, combined with Mario's previous showing, restored genuine uncertainty before Mario versus Cloud.

SC2K3 Round 3 East
Bowser 30.0%
Cloud crushes Bowser and sharply raises his title stock

Cloud destroyed a Bowser whom much of the board had strongly supported, making the scale of the win especially striking. The writeup discusses a severe picture mismatch but stops short of attributing the result primarily to it.

SC2K4 Round 3 Midgar Cloud dominates Squall in a predictable SFF matchup 1

Cloud easily beat Squall in a heavily shared-fanbase matchup, but the result did little to improve his standing against Link. The writeup remembers the match mainly as another predictable step toward the planned final.

SFF: The writeup explicitly frames Cloud versus Squall as a matchup with a massive amount of SFF, with Cloud dominating the fellow Final Fantasy entrant.

writeup (md)
CB VIII Round 3 Midgar Captain Falcon adds to the evidence of Cloud decline

Cloud won comfortably, but Captain Falcon still performed better than several much more established characters had managed against him. The writeup treats Falcon's showing as further evidence that Cloud had weakened.

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.
