Alucard beats Kratos but looks vulnerable heading toward Sora |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Alucard beat Kratos, but Kratos's strong daytime showing made the favorite look far less convincing than expected. The writeup saw the result as a warning that Alucard was aging and would be vulnerable against Sora.

Ryu beats bracket favorite Kratos despite a strong day vote |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Ryu beat Kratos without serious danger even though casual brackets had strongly favored Kratos. The writeup is more interested in Kratos's powerful daytime recovery, which suggested he could become dangerous in a genuinely winnable future match.

Kratos wins as Nintendo LFF weakens Donkey Kong and Marth |
|
✓ |
|
|
|

|
Kratos took first in a result that surprised many casual brackets but looked straightforward to the writeup. Donkey Kong still advanced, though sharing Nintendo support with Marth made an already difficult matchup much worse for him.
LFF: The writeup says Donkey Kong and Marth drained each other's Nintendo support, making outsider Kratos's first-place finish effectively inevitable.

Jill reverses Ocelot as Metal Gear hype falls flat |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Kratos advanced comfortably, while Jill reversed the prior year's result against Ocelot and took the other spot. Ocelot's failure to capitalize on fresh Metal Gear momentum made him the match's major disappointment.

Kratos beats Tails but loses his favorite status |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Kratos defeated Tails but looked badly underwhelming for a highly seeded character, especially because his usual daytime strength never appeared. The showing made Charizard look much more dangerous for the next round.

A developer rally lifts Recette over Travis |
|
|
✓ |
|
|
1 |
|
Kratos won easily, but Recette unexpectedly beat Travis for second in the Expert Challenge ordering after outside support boosted the niche indie character. Travis's comeback attempt never fully recovered the early deficit.
Rally: The writeup says Recette received a small organized push from the game's developer, with possible additional support from 4chan.

Kratos SFFs John Marston in a huge statement |
✓ |
|
|
|
|
1 |
|
Kratos produced by far one of the strongest performances of his contest career while Marston looked far weaker than his game-level popularity suggested. The writeup attributes much of the gap to same-audience suppression.
SFF: The writeup explicitly calls Kratos's unusually large win over John Marston SFF, arguing that two similar Western tough-guy fanbases overlapped heavily and that the stronger, more established Kratos suppressed Marston.

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.
