Mario opens with a blowout and alarming turnout |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Mario and Bowser opened the rivalry contest with the expected blowout, but the writeup focuses on the embarrassingly low turnout even for a marquee Nintendo pairing. It blames the contest format rather than overall site traffic.

Mario and Bowser begin Round Two with another bad rematch |
|
|
|
|

|
The first Mario-versus-Sonic rivalry matchup in contest history turned into a one-sided win for Mario and Bowser. The writeup treats the result as another example of Sonic collapsing under Mario overlap.
SFF: The writeup explicitly calls Mario and Bowser's win over Sonic and Robotnik an SFF beating.

Mario repeats an old Mega Man rout almost exactly |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Mario and Bowser crushed Mega Man X and Zero by almost the same proportion as an old Mario-Mega Man matchup. The writeup uses the repeat-like result to complain about how lifeless the late rounds had become.

Mario survives the trainers after an early semifinal scare |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Red and Blue stayed even with Mario and Bowser for roughly the opening hour before Mario pulled away across the rest of the day. The trainers lost, but the writeup still regards them as the contest's breakout stars.

Link wins a dull final as Oracle decides perfect brackets |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Mario and Bowser led briefly behind bracket voting and anti-Link sentiment, but Link and Ganondorf soon took control and won the championship. The final is remembered more for the Oracle tiebreak among perfect brackets than for competitive drama.

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.
