writeup (md)
CB VIII Round 1 Chaos
Kirby 57.5%
Rikku 42.5%
Kirby wins routinely but weakens his upset case

Kirby beat Rikku almost exactly as expected in a match with little suspense. Because Kirby needed an overperformance to sustain hopes of challenging Sonic, the merely routine win was treated as disappointing.

writeup (md)
CB VIII Round 2 Chaos
Kirby 68.4%
GlaDOS 31.6%
Kirby wins but his Sonic upset case collapses

Kirby beat GLaDOS in a predictable match but fell far short of the strength his prior contest run implied. The writeup treats this as the point where serious Kirby-over-Sonic upset hopes collapsed.

3 3829
writeup (md)
CB VIII Round 3 Chaos
Kirby 57.6%
Vivi 42.4%
Kirby advances but his Sonic case disappears

Kirby beat Vivi without difficulty, but failed to look strong enough to preserve serious hopes of upsetting Sonic. The writeup treats Kirby's old four-way bandwagon strength as clearly gone.

4 3843
writeup (md)
CB VIII Division Final Chaos
Kirby 45.4%
Sonic shuts down the Kirby upset case

Sonic beat Kirby comfortably and completed the collapse of years of hype that Ganondorf or Kirby might break the Noble Nine through him. The writeup treats Sonic as restored to roughly his traditional place.

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.
