Round 2 |
East |
|
Sonic survives Zero but loses his remaining aura of dominance |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Sonic beat Zero but looked dramatically weaker than expected as Zero steadily cut into what began as a comfortable advantage. The writeup calls it a Pyrrhic victory that effectively ended serious Sonic-over-Cloud hopes.

|
Zero handles Vercetti and completes the Mega Man setup |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Zero handled Vercetti almost exactly as Board 8 expected in a match the writeup calls one of the contest's dullest. Its main significance was completing the obvious setup for Mega Man versus Zero.

Zero dispatches Lloyd and advances toward the inevitable Mario test |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Zero dispatched Lloyd exactly as the bracket had seemed to prescribe from the start. The writeup mainly uses the match to reassess Lloyd's place among Tales characters and to leave Zero's real test for Mario.

Round 2 |
Division 4 |
|
Zero makes Crono look vulnerable before Vincent |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Crono and Zero advanced as expected, but Zero stayed close enough to make Crono look vulnerable before his anticipated showdown with Vincent. Raiden also emerged as a major disappointment after failing to separate convincingly from HK-47.

Round 2 |
Division 5 |
|
Snake dominates while Zero survives Vivi's late push |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Snake delivered another statement performance, while Zero and Vivi fought a much more entertaining battle for the second advancing spot. Zero survived, but Vivi's late resistance made the race memorable.

Round 2 |
Gear |
|
Auron meets expectations while Zero restores some credibility |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Auron won about as comfortably as expected, which the writeup saw as insufficient evidence for an upset of Squall. Zero's respectable showing instead reinforced the idea that his recent weakness had been exaggerated by bad Nintendo-heavy draws.

Round 2 |
Division 9 |
|
Zero wins as Rikku retires another joke contender |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Zero won easily while Rikku gradually pulled away from Weighted Companion Cube for second in the Expert Challenge ordering. Strategic Mega Man fans voting away from Zero are discussed, but the outcome was never in doubt.

CB X |
Round 2 |
Division 2 |
|
Zero ends another brutally unlucky Knuckles run |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Zero beat Knuckles by almost exactly the sort of margin historical strength estimates suggested, ending another unlucky Knuckles run against elite opposition. The writeup treats Knuckles as legitimate despite yet another early exit.

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.
